  • I use jetbrains IDE since years, and I did some really strange stuff with them.

    I used clion with experimental GCC builds and crashed the IDE multiple times. Opened a bug. Got fixed.

    We found a bug in their Datagrip Sybase DWH integration. I met some of their team at a conference a week later, talked with them about the bug in person, got fixed during the day.

    Sure, bugs may take a while, but thei get fixed.

    And to AI. Cursor should be able to connect to jetbrains IDEs from the outside.

    There is no other, universal, IDE stack that can come close. Ok, maybe if you are willed to invest weeks in an emcas or neovim setup


  • Ok, watched that video. Not a single word how that makes slop not a single example about slop.

    But a pinned sponsor comment. How nice. Such hypocrisy.

    To make content is a risky Business. Having private capital helps a lot. Having someone else that takes care about sponsorship, copyright issues and other legal stuff takes a huge amount of pressure from the content creators.

    Wanting content for free, blocking an skipping ads, but expecting the creators to do that shit without major income?

    And this shit is paramount here. As long as we have no basic income or do not life in a world where everybodys needs are fulfilled and money is obsolete content creators need an income.












  • Maybe this helps for people stumbling over this thread: A Google Coral device can do classification on images with around 18fps. That is a 2w USB device.

    That is the power of a well built DNN.

    And you can adapt this this stuff like Monitoring data, network traffic and much more. All “AI”, same basic technology like ChatGPT and Claude but made for specific tasks. And they do their tasks damn fucking well




  • The first thing the Nazis did when they marched into the Netherlands, the took the religious information from the citizens register to deport all Jews.

    Oppressive regimes are using information to track down dissidents and let them vanish.

    If you want to blast out every detail of your life, be m guest.

    But forcing your idea of life and safety down everyone’s throught is not the way to go.


  • Platform and systems Architect for a german managed Services provider here.

    I second that. Currently, I am working on replacing external AI providers with 150W AMD hardware. Most of our teams used LLMs for stuff where classical ML is far more reliable and faster.

    The few places where LLMs are needed, we still can do locally.

    So, instead of spending millions in some tokens that take gigawatt of Power, we estimate that our 5k employees will need a total power of 5kw across Europe. We have 100x the solar distributed across our locations.

    We conflate LLM or Diffusion with AI here, because most had never contact with other kinds of AI.
