  Dunning-Kruger effect.

  Lots of people now think they can be developpers because they did a shitty half working game using vibe coding.

  Would you trust a surgeon that rely on ChatGPT ? So why sould you trust LLM to develop programs ? You know that airplane, nuclear power plants, and a LOT of critical infrastructure rely on programs, right ?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What editor or IDE do you use and why?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  neovim, because it’s much nicer and user friendly than vim.

  Why the fuck would I drive a watch ?

  The point of self hosting is not to engage people going in your server. The point of self hosting is to have control over your infrastructure. It’s like renting or buying a home.

  When you buy a home, you don’t complain that no one wants to sleep in your home 😆

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a bit strange. On one side you talk about a project you work on, so I expect a repo on github or something, on the other side the link you post redirect to a product or a service you seems to sell.

  It’s cool if you can make money with it, but to be more effective you might have to clarify your point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t even understand what that guy is trying to sell. Is it some kind of picture of a monkey ?

  You have a two-party political system and must respect the results of your elections.

  Your weight also change, but the difference is converted to energy using mass–energy equivalence formula.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Watching "They Live!" has opened my eyes to how often the movie is referenced, as if I put on the same sunglasses⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, it’s because it stay in cache, and when the simulation is overloaded, it directly takes an asset already resident in cache instead of loading a new one. Like the car in GTA3: x.com/ObbeVermeij/status/1790730197286752530?ref=…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can local LLMs be as useful and insightful as those widely available?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Poor internet connection/no internet at all, network latency too high for their needs, specific fine tuned LLM ?

  Off course, main reason is privacy. My company host its own GPT4 chatbot, and forbid us to use public ones. But I suppose there are other legit use case to host its own LLM.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Vaultwarden selfhosting, or bitwarden service?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe worth to mention that bitwarden also propose bitwarden.eu to host data in Europe. I’ve used bitwarden.com for years, and switch to bitwarden.eu a few month ago because of reasons, you know…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I comment because this is how a social network works, and this is how you keep lemmy alive. My comment has generated a dozen of other comments, so he achieved his goal.

  There is not a single question that’s already have been answered on internet, so there no point on asking anything on social plateforms except just for the sake of interacting with other peoples.

  Lemmy is not stackoverflow 😉

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t know how list are implemented in Python. But in the dumb linked list implementation (like C++ std::list), each element has a “next” member that point the the next element. So, to have list length, you have to do (pseudo code, not actual python code):

  len = 0
  elt = list.fisrt
  while exist(elt):
      elt = elt.next
      len++
  return len
  

  Whereas to test if list is empty, you just have to:

  return exist(list.first)
  

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Python Performance: Why 'if not list' is 2x Faster Than Using len()⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t it because list is linked list, so to get the Len it has to iterate over the whole list whereas to get emptyness it just have to check if there is a 1st element ?

  I’ too lazy to read the article BTW.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nearly half of Steam's users are still using Windows 10, with end of life fast approaching⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I use to be on Windows 7 until last month, where Steam definitly refuse to start. Now I’ve switch to Ubuntu. No regret.
