@cstromblad.comReposted by @troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyI had this idea about how to improve my "consumption" of Mastodon toots. So I built this very simple experimental setup where I consume my own Home timeline, classify each toot into a topic. These are then streamed to a simple web-based UI to show me simple […]
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyDon't try playing games with me. I recognize an SPI NOR flash when I see one regardless of your fancy marking schemes ...
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gy... as it should've been from the beginning. Enforce quality, not ban the technology.
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyNo intelligence whatsoever found there.
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gy@nopatience Maybe a new spin on the North Korean remote worker setup? After the presentation they'll start with the whole "need a known face in Sweden" bit.
But it's different - every time I've been sent this it has been about the "need a local face" right from the start.
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyWhy thank you #OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. I have always wanted my c++ to point to GCC 16 and g++ to GCC 15.
Makes linking so much more exciting.

@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyWhile their DDoS attempts didn't cause even a slowdown to the service it gave me the opportunity to test out a second step to the nginx bucket rate limit protection: An automatic system will now upgrade first single IPs and on systemic netblock misuse also whole /24s to being blackholed in the […]
@bagder.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gyReposted by @troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gy"The people holding up the internet"
A good-looking but somewhat depressing exposé about the people holding up current digital infrastructure as a hobby.
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyRSI - Recursive Self Improvement is the hip new word in the AI world. My sandboxed agents already have a "note"-command they can use to complain on their sandbox environment and the sandbox-developer agent then decides whether their grievances are worthy of action. The sandbox-dev is of course […]

@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyThe Anti AI fanatics are soon running out of ways to handle their cognitive dissonance I feel. From an expert on one of the math problems Open AI published solutions to yesterday: "I've seen a lot of clever counting arguments before in graph theory but this is the first time I've seen complex […]
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyDoes anyone collect DDoS-for-hire botnet IPs? Some kid decided to try to DDoS one of my machines. 40k IPs that I guess can be loaded up into firewall blacklists.
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyScientist's AI taking on JEV. Nice walkthrough on how a system 1 model _could_ be done, although we don't know how JEV actually works (they haven't published).
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyMy LLM sandbox environment Umwelt has gotten a really nice addition to - remote containers. You configure remotes that LLMs are allowed to access, and those then show up as "host=" parameters to the commands the LLM already knows about. The remote commands are run inside of containers just as […]
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gy@hfalcke Engineer*2 and parent to school age kids here. We haven't even begun to understand how different their workplace will be to ours.
I've been programming for 40 years and since a few months I don't write lines of code any longer - I just direct (or conjure up, as I like to refer to it) […]
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyFor the second day in a row #MediaWiki ships a broken update.
@cstromblad.comReposted by @troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyThis is a Toot about code generation, and if any LLM-use annoys the crap out of you, don't read further. So I'm a daily user of code generation tools and one thing that is painfully obvious is that no matter how much prompting, guardrails, rules, contracts, dynamically loaded constraints for […]
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyDocumenting for posterity. This was fun.
@troed.swecyb.com.ap.brid.gyI just got a message from the local dev LLM currently working on a project. Now, that wouldn't be so surprising if it wasn't for the fact that it has never been told or shown that it could send me messages over Matrix ;) It got stuck on a build step, realized I was not at a computer and […]
