acedTrex··on It’s so hard to finish an idea that is not yours and is just suggested by AI
I completely block all LLM comments via pi extension, it makes using them significantly more enjoyable. If the LLM wants to add a comment it must ASK me explicitly to do so.

Seeing LLM comments in other peoples code is very upsetting because theres just so much meaningless noise.

acedTrex··on Disruption with Some GitHub Services
Oh thank god my pink unicorn site is back online, its had great uptime lately so thats nice.
acedTrex··on OpenAI Jalapeño: Better than Nvidia Blackwell
But they are also PURCHASING from nvidia so any time nvidia lowers their prices they save money.
acedTrex··on OpenAI Jalapeño: Better than Nvidia Blackwell
Is that not literally the exect opposite of the direction asics for LLM inference is going?
acedTrex··on Feature Request: Support AGENTS.md
It hides information usually in a slop deluge that SHOULD be in normal human project documentation.

If it's useful to an LLM its useful to a human, information should be treated as human first, the LLM will come along with it.

acedTrex··on Feature Request: Support AGENTS.md
agentsmd is a ridiculous concept, it feels like a huge psyop that theres so much hullabaloo about this ridiculous markdown file.
acedTrex··on Technical leaders should have the largest AI exhaust
Wow what a terrible article, just awful stuff lol
acedTrex··on Proposal to prohibit vibe coded projects from being hosted on Sourcehut
Sure there are other ways to do this same thing, they picked this option. Not particularly noteworthy of a thing
acedTrex··on Proposal to prohibit vibe coded projects from being hosted on Sourcehut
"if you cannot handle a 10x load over the historical standard of generally low quality content you should not be hosting repos"

A ridiculous take

acedTrex··on Proposal to prohibit vibe coded projects from being hosted on Sourcehut
I mean it's good you are having fun, but that way of working will not be accepted in some communities, its inevitable so just find the place that accepts your preferred way of working.
acedTrex··on Proposal to prohibit vibe coded projects from being hosted on Sourcehut
The programming community will continue to schism down these ideological lines, its inevitable.

May everyone find their niche but inclusion does not work when barrier to entry is reduced to near zero.

acedTrex··on Proposal to prohibit vibe coded projects from being hosted on Sourcehut
"Social Coding" was dead the moment LLMs showed emergent programming capabilities. This is the remaining communities attempting to defend themselves from the hordes of low effort slop coders.

From first principles a community that relied on high friction knowledge attainment as the barrier to entry does not survive contact with LLMs. That extends far beyond "programming" as well.

acedTrex··on Incident with Github.com
More specifically you've coupled the likelihood of your downtime coinciding with githubs downtime. Which as its a product is likely a very small % chance.
acedTrex··on AI-Generated GitHub Copilot “Autofix” Allowed Compromise of Snowflake's Jira
It's not actually, thats just shoving more shit into the shit pipeline.

Humans need to review this stuff yall there's no way around that, apparently to some, very inconvenient reality.

acedTrex··on AI Coding Without the Vibes
Exactly, i so wish the narratives around LLMs in most fields were around how they can enable us to be better ourselves...
acedTrex··on Understanding is the new bottleneck
Breaking: water found in ocean
acedTrex··on Triton: DirectX 11 Driver for QEMU
> Army of agents doesn't mean the person doing that doesn't understand the code

This is quite literally, objectively what it means lol. No human will ever seen it.

acedTrex··on Humans missed 1 in 3 threats approving AI agent commands across 40k game runs
> A separate model with separate context is used for review.

Thats fine, theres still a chance it fails.

> There is no possible solution which will satisfy someone who has zero tolerance for letting an LLM execute tool calls because they will always find something.

This is generally correct, security goes completely out of the window with this stuff. It will/currently is a security disaster and theres no actual solution to it.

acedTrex··on Humans missed 1 in 3 threats approving AI agent commands across 40k game runs
"Lets have the system that fails sometimes that we are trying to ensure does not fail check it self"

This is such an unserious approach.

acedTrex··on Born Against, or why hobby programming communities are against LLM usage
> Even before LLMs came along a lot of hobbyists were using high level languages, linters, IDEs etc. instead of handcrafting assembly or machine language. Those tools increased the capability of hobbyists to build what they find interesting

Yes and many programmers who came up in the 80s or early 90s writing C or equivalent decry these tools as ruining XYZ thing. LLMs are the same effect just on steroids

acedTrex··on Born Against, or why hobby programming communities are against LLM usage
> I don’t understand the world of people who have this degree of free time

You dont understand that people have hobbies they enjoy doing? Because thats the entire point of the article.

acedTrex··on Born Against, or why hobby programming communities are against LLM usage
> targeted usage for tedium that has very little value overall

The entire point of the article was the hobby is ascribing value to that tedium that the LLM is removing.

acedTrex··on Born Against, or why hobby programming communities are against LLM usage
> So at least in my experience, it’s not about gatekeeping as much as it’s about keeping the experience bearable for the existing hobbyist community.

Keeping the experience bearable BY gatekeeping. That is the point, gatekeeping is not inherently a bad thing. It's a required thing in many circles.

acedTrex··on Waymo in Dallas
Ive really been enjoying waymo, ill pay a premium over anything else for them.
acedTrex··on FFmpeg 9.0
Wow i made it like 1 paragraph in before i had to bow out of the slopfest, tough scene.
acedTrex··on Don't be a meat proxy
God the "compiler abstraction" argument is so tired, why does anyone even remotely thinks its accurate anymore
acedTrex··on Kimi-K3 Technical Report [pdf]
Why?
acedTrex··on The New AI Superpowers: Focus and Followthrough
Ya this is exactly how I use it, the LLM does everything i don't want to do. Which is basically everything except the exact code im writing. Its very freeing to not have to worry or touch a jira ticket ever again. The LLM just does it for me.
acedTrex··on The new rules of context engineering for Claude 5 generation models
This is very trivial to implement in any serious tool/workflow. I have a version of it in my pi nvim setup.

The llm will figure it out when it relooks at the file.
