Ugh, I bought my first Earl gray because of the captain. And I still love it. I'll drink one tonight to him.

I never use LLM to write anything, but unfortunately now whenever I am writing something, I am worried, am I sounding like an LLM? Using certain words, makes me worry, it will make my writing like an LLM, so I have started to avoid some words in my writing.

I really don't like this timeline ... sigh

If that happens, I think the actors will have more serious things to hack around then phone-looping some poor souls

Correct me if I wrong, I saw this when llama.cpp or ollama initializes, it is used as token separator of some sort.

I tried that too, but it wasn't very good.

And unfortunately, these posts goes on frontpage, because AI, but no ai posts are largly ignored.

I have tried both. Merlin is best for bird watching. It does not ask to upload any data. Just start the recording, it listens and let me know what is the bird is. Done. It only uploads, IF I want it upload.

But these AI labs are not Linus. So, they'll just keep on gobbling up, but never give. And, all the new comers, are going to be a loser, to feed some billionaire.

I am no one in anything, the thing is I love spending hours writing code, fixing some weird issue somewhere in the code, and then see it working as it intended. But now I can just put up some text and the whole thing is generated. Using my thoughts, the things I learnt, and applying them are not needed.

I can see there are still lot to do in the generated code, but I also feel something went away, Now I start working on it, and realize I'm reminded I just have to dictate what I need and it will be generated

It's like I have to pay for the best gun in the game to win, otherwise I can't just progress. Then why am I playing the game for?

Unfortunately, This happens everywhere.

So many years I couldn't use Gnome properly because of an NVIDIA bug. We paid handsomely for our GPU, and they give a shit about us.

Oh yes to that! It is also built in to IDEA, and It's just so good! I looked for other alternatives, but nothing comes close to their database tool. Works so well.

Just to add another note, Initially I was a bit skeptic about their new UI. But, they have improved it a lot, and it's really good. Even though I hide most of the UI elements in favor of `double shift`

I use only one, IntelliJ IDEA, which has all integrated, except Rider I believe.

It has full Rust, Java, Python, Web stack, things that I work with.

There were few issues here and there occasionally, but last few months I have not faced any issues, and it's been really robust. It gets slow with LLM providers running in the background on my 7 year old laptop though. But on desktop it flies.

It's not nostalgia/pity. It's something I have use for.

And, also, it's kind of having a principle, my own. I have issues with corruption manifested by all of these AI corporations. It's an itch that I can't scratch, so I am trying my best to stay away from them.

It's not JetBrains is good and all. But, they're not worse, yet.
