Totally agree. Downvote button is for marking low quality posts, not to express disagreement. For disagreements there is a comment section.

How would it even work? LLMs generate data based on next token probability, not by copying and pasting someone’s repos.

When an AI fills in the boilerplate, generates the implementations, writes the tests, the apprentice never develops the muscle memory they needed to eventually do the real work. We end up with a generation of developers who can prompt well but can’t actually build.

What do you mean by “real work”? What is “actually building”?

If prompting actually adds some real value, if it actually solves actual business problems, then why isn’t it a real work? And if it does not add real value, then no one sane will get rid of senior developers. In my options you’re contradicting yourself.

Please change title, we don’t want clickbait here

What’s in this article is true, but to be honest I’ve never seen anyone using lines of code as an optimization metric. Even among the most AI enthusiastic people. I mean: the author of the article seem to be fighting non-existing problem.

Memory requirements does not mean that something is bloated.

Windows XP required 64 MB of RAM. Does it mean Debian is bloated then?

AFAIK perfomance and low resource usage has never been a main objective of this distro

Can someone explain? Isn’t removing bots actually a good thing?

Are you seriously asking how to make money out of large, structured knowledge base in 2026? Having data these days is like having a goldmine, I can’t think of any more valuable asset.

that’s probably going to burst soon

what do you mean “burst”? Stock market valuation of IT companies are currently overblown, yes, but the technology is not going anywhere. I’m personally using it for software development, it became part of my workflow and I don’t intend to stop using it. I also see other people chatting with bots daily. It just become a new kind of user interface to which people got used to.

Maybe you don’t care, but to be a sustainable company, Mozilla need to look for alternative sources of income. They can’t just make 2010s style browser forever.

but these do not work like “trending”, right? They are chronologic?

It’s global trending. Which I find unfortunate, because it basically defeats a purpose of thematic servers. For example I’m on Polish server, full of people taking in Polish, but I see only global trends which are not at all in Polish 🫤

Most people are using Linux for the privacy benefits

What is wrong? Publishing on ARM? I don’t understand why this post received so many downvotes

Yeah, that’s the idea, but they are still not there

There is no such thing like “running model with your training data”. To change model’s behavior you need to fine-tune it, which means: to continue training it on your own data set. For this to happen you need to have your own dataset, computing power and knowledge how to do it because you may as well make your model performing worse. It is not an easy task.

China is winning the race just because they release open weights of a models. The main question is: why do they do that? They don’t earn money, so there must be something else that they gain. Political influence maybe? Spreading propaganda? Has anyone checked if those models answer questions about Tiananmen Square?

Yay, another day with Windows Sloperating System

Let this sink in down
