  • I’ve only used an LLM (you can guess which one) once to write code. Mostly because I didn’t feel like writing down some numbers and making a little drawing for myself to solve the problem.

    And because a friend insisted that it writes code just fine.

    But it didn’t. It confidently didn’t. Instead, it made up something weird and kept telling me that it had now “fixed” the problem, when in reality it was trying random fixes that were related to the error message but had nothing to do with the actual core problem. It just guessed and prayed.

    In the end, I solved the problem in 10 minutes with a small scribble and a pen. And most of the time was spend drawing small boxes, because my solution relied on a coordinate system, I needed to visualize.




  • I honestly think that microplastics and CO² are a strange thing to give up over.

    Both are a mostly genuine mistake made by a civilization that was (at least at the time it commited to the mistake) largely unaware of the problems it was causing. Much like acid rain or the ozone layer.

    We are slowly getting to grips with the problem. And don’t get me wrong: it sucks how a few extremely wealthy individuals can slow the progress that most other people are trying to achieve to an absolute crawl. This absolutely fucking sucks.

    But doom scrolling every day and giving up isn’t going to change anything. Neither now nor in the future. It’s okay to be sad. And a lot of things are really sad at the moment. But where sadness paralyzes, anger moves. Be angry. You have every right to be.

    Edit: Damn. I just noticed the community I’m posting this in. ._.
