Last Notes npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I wasn't talking about your day to day development. I'm talking about you convincing yourself that LLMs have magically solved efficiency. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I really think you should take a minute to evaluate what relying on AI is doing to your brain. Are you realistically thinking things through anymore? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne If Fable is the model that's exciting you, I think you have a LONG wait ahead of you before you're getting what you want on your own infrastructure. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Is this supposed to be a good thing? You're announcing that you're offloading your cognitive skills/thinking to an unreliable API from a bad company. Are you proud of that decision? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Feminism is one of the cornerstones of western ruin? What the fuck are you talking about? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Why are all of you so uncritical? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne If you want to continue to depend on an unreliable and potentially unavailable product, sure. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I don’t think Primal is working very well. I need a better app npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne This is the only acceptable way to celebrate the 250th npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I am a trader. I don’t “believe” in any assets. The value of things change in relation to other things, and you can take advantage of those differences sometimes. How is it helpful to keep the stack/hodl mentality for literally any asset? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Why would something that’s actually useful require true believers? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I literally talked about exactly this in my next post dumbass. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne America Needs to Grow the Fuck Up npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Spending the day watching videos about Indian reservations in the US. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Preserving the “genetic line of your nation” is not something that is realistic or even makes sense at all. It isn’t how things work. So it’s not sane. It’s just racist and stupid. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne My country is not just some joke to me. I want it to not be shit. It requires actually understanding what’s wrong so that work can be done to make it better. Fake patriotism does nothing but make things worse. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne This country started with colonization, genocide, and slavery. Right now, it’s a display of naked corruption complete with literal concentration camps for immigrants. Which part is great?? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne The one way one can have this opinion is if you ignore literally every single shitty thing about this country. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Anyone who says “250 years of American greatness” is delusional. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I miss when developers used to care about the problems they were trying to solve with software and focusing on coming up with real long-term solutions instead of shitting out half baked projects that they move on from the second they think of some other shit to sloppily vibe their way through. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne So I see you people on Nostr haven't grown up enough to stop using the word "retarded". Y'all sound like my friends in middle school in 1996. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I don't think these are two different ways of looking at it. All the things are part of the equation. It's a set of positive and negative tradeoffs. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne So LLMs: npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I'm guessing vocal LLM users don't realize how much they sound like addicts. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne The circle-jerking in this place is getting pretty annoying to watch. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Paid relays are a good thing. But I don’t think it would be reasonable for there to be no free ones. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne It’s almost as if LLMs don’t actually produce quality code. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I have never disagreed with a post this hard. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne https://www.theregister.com/ai-and-ml/2026/06/29/how-the-ai-bubble-could-pop-and-take-down-the-global-economy-according-to-the-bis/5263793 npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Americans who think what can’t happen? Immigration? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne The most economic way to do it is to actually write the code yourself instead of exchanging millions of tokens like this. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I’m trying to understand why humans enjoy drinking liquid meant for baby cows. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne It seems more quiet than usual right now. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Yes, my mood has been complete shit for quite a while now. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne You’re proud to use Grok??? The MechaHitler one? The one that’s primarily used for revenge porn? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Yup. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne This sounds like a LinkedIn post. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne $57k??? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne What is the point of being this pedantic and annoying? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne From who?? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I can't imagine what you're seeing that's making you feel bullish about this industry right now. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Dismissing people who have a different opinion than you as "always butthurt" just makes it look like you have no real argument. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne What streaming services do you use and what genres do you like? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Some details: https://ecorpit.com/what-is-apple-system-orchestrator-ai-routing-ios-27/ npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne It uses a combination of on device models and bigger cloud models. It tries to detect when you’ll need a cloud one, but clearly that isn’t working well. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Meanwhile, developers keep declaring how addicted they are and how much they’ll continue to rely on it for all of their projects. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne What’s the best iOS Nostr client? I don’t want to use Primal anymore. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I can’t wait until subsidized pricing stops so devs stop thinking like this. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne It’s probably a bad idea to purposefully addict yourself to something you get in a subsidized plan. What happens when you have to pay actual token prices after these companies can’t afford to give this stuff away anymore? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Out of curiosity, what do you hate about it? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Weed. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne The 58k people must be thrilled. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne So we all have to change our preset zap amounts at this point huh? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Using AI for development is not efficient. I might seem like it because of these subsidized plans, but burning through tokens to brute force coding solutions is too wasteful. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Agreed it’s a trade off. But it also feels like churn to me. Figuring out the right code to write and correct solutions to come up with seems more important than raw output. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne I still build things without LLMs. I like writing and fully understanding my own code. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne Has relay.nostr.com ever worked? npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne This seems a little overdramatic. npub18slmnf3cs2vy4m4jfcgd2a0ksn23v06uf7rx5cgq42uyudjdunwqc3squg Dwayne It’s been 6 years and you’re still confused about how vaccines work? Have you done any basic research at all or are you fine with being completely ignorant about simple scientific concepts for that long?
