FuckBigTech347@lemmygrad.mlto Technology@lemmygrad.ml•Microshit has unleashed aGeNtiC AI on one of its public codebases5·26 天前I stand by what I said in that other thread the other day: I have yet to find LLMs be a useful tool. This whole thing is hilarious but at the same time I feel bad for the devs who have to deal with this crap.
LLMs are hot garbage and my opinion will only change once I can describe a problem to it and it actually understands and provides in-depth guidance related to my problem without any bullshit or false/outdated information. I want an LLM that might ask me for more information on something if it thinks it needs it.

One time I asked DeepSeek for guidance on a more complex problem involving a linked list and I wanted to know how a simple implementation of that would look like in practice. The most high level I go is C and they claim it knows C, so I asked it to write in the C language. It literally started writing code like this:
void important_function() { // important_function code goes here } void black_magic() { // Code that performs black magic goes here. }
I tried at least 2 more times after that and while it did actually write code this time, the code it wrote made no sense whatsoever. For example one time it started writing literal C# in the middle of a C function for some reason. Another time it wrongly assumed that I’m asking for C++ (despite me explicitly stating otherwise) and the C++ it produced was horrifying and didn’t even work. Yet another time it acted like the average redditor and hyper focused on a very specific part of my prompt and then only responded to that while ignoring my actual request.
I tried to “massage” it a lot in hopes of getting some useful information out of it but in the end I found that some random people’s Git repos and Stackexchange questions were way more helpful to my problem. All of my experiences with LLMs have been like this thus far and I’ve been messing with them for 1+ years now. People claim they’re very useful for writing repetitive or boiler plate code but I am never in a position where I’d want or need that. Maybe my use cases are just too niche lol.
A few days ago I was configuring some software where it’s difficult to find good documentation about so I decided to ask DeepSeek. I described what I’m trying to do and asked if it could give me an example setup so I can get a better understanding. All it did was confidently make shit up and told me things that I already knew. And that’s only the most recent example. I have yet to find LLMs be a useful tool.
That’s only been my experience with software that depends on many different libraries. And it’s extra painful when you find out that it needs hyper specific versions of libraries that are older than the ones you have already installed. Rust is only painless because it just downloads all the right dependencies.
Some old software does use 8-Bit ASCII for special/locale specific characters. Also there is this Unicode hack where the last bit is used to determine if the byte is part of a multi-byte sequence.

Bonus points if there is only 1 tiny bathroom with a bathtub/shower that’s from the late 80s and the kitchen is integrated into the already small living room.
FuckBigTech347@lemmygrad.mltoGames@lemmygrad.ml•What video games are you playing? What have you finished recently? What do you plan to play? - Video Game General Discussion Thread #292·3 个月前I too enjoy Turbo Overkill a lot but I’m only maybe halfway through. :/ I stopped playing because for some reason I started getting this weird sound bug where all audio cuts out for 5 - 10 seconds and then comes back and is fine for like a minute until it cuts out again. I’ve tried everything. No matter what I do it just keeps happening and it only tends to happen on the Windows version of Unity games in general I’ve noticed. I’ve combed the web for answers but only found a couple people with a similar problem with no answers, or answers that don’t work for me.
If only they released a Linux native version. Linux native Unity games are completely fine.

They sound like one of those people who believe that video games are a waste of time. Meanwhile they’re probably browsing the Internet all day and slurp up all the propaganda against US enemies they come across.

That’s still just a SBC in a case though. What needs to happen is basically a Dell Optiplex or Lenovo ThinkCentre but RISC-V. A machine that is relatively cheap, made from standard mass produced parts and is plug-n-play but still has some room for expansion.
Loongson is already going in that direction. Also they published at least the essentials, mainlined support for it in GCC and the Linux Kernel, and most of all it’s not x86. In fact it’s based on MIPS64.
FuckBigTech347@lemmygrad.mlto Technology@lemmygrad.ml•DeepSeek is great, but why is it so cagey toward good faith questions regarding Marxism/Chinese history?3·3 个月前LLM is a search engine
I wouldn’t even call them that. Any fulltext search engine will always produce reliable output and doesn’t make shit up. Also they don’t need a GPU to number crunch and don’t require the most recent beast computer to run. For example, any PostgreSQL Table can be used as a search engine index via TSVECTOR.
Affordable Desktop Hardware. Right now all RISC-V hardware that’s not just a naked SBC costs a small fortune. Once there are mass produced pre-built RISC-V boxes for the average person then RISC-V will become more widespread.
FuckBigTech347@lemmygrad.mlto Ask Lemmygrad@lemmygrad.ml•Who of you want or don't want children? I am just curious because most people that I talk to don't seem to want it. I mean leftist7·3 个月前I had an abusive parent so I wouldn’t know what to do with children even if I had them. I don’t even know how to interact with other people’s children, so I instinctively avoid them. Also I find a lot of people’s children to be annoying/exhausting. I think seeing parents playing with their kids is nice, but I can’t ever imagine being in such a position myself. All I have right now is myself and I don’t see that changing.

I’m starting to think that feds are spamming the “TAX” idea as a distraction. If you genuinely believe that “taxing the rich” will get us Communism then you need to read more. “The Principles of Communism”, “Wage Labour and Capital” and “The Communist Manifesto” are good starting points.
