slekker··on Claude Opus 4.7
What does that actually do? Force the "effort" to be static to what I set?

slekker··on Claude Opus 4.7
What about Qwen? Does it get that right?

I had a problem with a Realtek wifi card, where it would become slow for a few seconds every couple of minutes, had to disable a setting , maybe it helps you: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_configuration/Wirel...
slekker··on I tried to prove I'm not AI. My aunt wasn't convinced
That's a bargain Johnny boy! My company gives me $250 in AI tokens to use every day!

It's great, this is the kind of content I look for in HackerNews, I'm so fucking tired of LLMs and AI posts
slekker··on What AI coding costs you
I love your take <3
slekker··on Rust is just a tool
Following your analogy, if there is a way for the lawyer to never lose a case due to misinterpreting the law...
slekker··on OpenAI agrees with Dept. of War to deploy models in their classified network
Knowing Sam, that's exactly what happened -- and the echo chamber inside OpenAI wouldnt dare to disagree

This one too: "It’s a proven pattern."
slekker··on Never buy a .online domain
Which other ones do you block?
slekker··on I guess I kinda get why people hate AI
Thanks, this summarised my feelings as well.
slekker··on Kimi Claw
Careful, you might get a blog post saying you're gatekeeping!
slekker··on Breaking the spell of vibe coding
I know right, had this discussion last week and it's difficult to argue when people are blinded by the "magic" and hype of the slot machine.
slekker··on Slop Terrifies Me
I mourn for the US :(
slekker··on Slop Terrifies Me
Y' know there's this thing called a government
slekker··on We mourn our craft
yup, all these folks claiming AI is the bees knees are delegating their thinking to a roulette that may or may not give proper answers. the world will become more and more like the movie idiocracy
slekker··on Microsoft is walking back Windows 11's AI overload
Imagine they got their smart engineers to improve and refine Wine (and adjacent tools), rather than pushing out slop, it would be truly amazing
slekker··on AGENTS.md outperforms skills in our agent evals
But who would create AI?
slekker··on Cloudflare claimed they implemented Matrix on Cloudflare workers. They didn't
I doubt they checked the code though
slekker··on Your brain on ChatGPT: Accumulation of cognitive debt when using an AI assistant
I recommend you to read https://lucumr.pocoo.org/2026/1/18/agent-psychosis/
slekker··on Your brain on ChatGPT: Accumulation of cognitive debt when using an AI assistant
The problem is that how do you review code if you don't know what it is supposed to look like? Creativity is not only in the problem solving step but also when implementing it, and letting an LLM do most of it is incredibly dangerous for the future, more so on juniors are gaining experience this way. The software quality will be much worse, and the churn even higher, and I will be in a farm with my chickens
slekker··on Anthropic blocks third-party use of Claude Code subscriptions
How much do you use AI in your day? Are you a heavy user? Asking because your comment has a lot of "LLM mannerism"
slekker··on Trump says Venezuela’s Maduro captured after strikes
Tune in at the livestream 11am Mar-a-lago time :^)

My guess: he will be imprisoned in a 3rd country, he can't be allowed to move back to Venezuela

slekker··on Trump says Venezuela’s Maduro captured after strikes
Exactly this, as a Colombian with many friends who fled Venezuela, the consensus is that the means aren't good but it's looking like a great outcome for democracy (might be too early to tell)
slekker··on I'm a developer for a major food delivery app
A similar thing happened to me in South America while on vacation, I was looking to book an Uber but the taxi driver gave me a small discount to do it "on the side" and explained that he wouldn't see most of the money from Uber. As a passenger, the advantage of Uber is that if something happens, I have someone accountable: drive + car plate. But in reality I don't know if that works
slekker··on 2025 was a disaster for Windows 11
To add they want to rewrite Windows in Rust with AI, which I can only assume they hope will keep the software quality up but I doubt it
slekker··on LearnixOS
Bleh, I think a typo here and there is fine, you can grasp the meaning, and gives the writing style "character". Yes, it's dire but I'd take that over the soul-less LLM writing style.
slekker··on A faster path to container images in Bazel
As I've read through the post, seeing phrases like "Why this matters for performance", usage of em-dashes and lists/bullet points, screams AI written to me. I appreciate you saying it wasn't, but such is the fate of who wrote this to write like LLMs do nowadays. I also liked to use em-dashes and bullet lists but am consciously avoiding them now.
