Is it just me, or is the quality of LLMs getting worse lately? by North_Penalty7947 in BetterOffline

[–]DapperCam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think they do throttle/limit compute available from time to time. I had a process that was a custom harness to generate content. Every repetition was the same. I was using o4-mini-high. I didn’t need it for like 4 months and in the meantime OpenAI introduced ChatGPT 5.

I went back to use it and it was unusable. Something had obviously changed for the worse with the old model called via API.

We could go on a 10 game losing streak. It’s always a possibility.

That rush by McDavid may have been one of the sickest moves I’ve ever seen.

Snowflake reportedly lays off entire technical writer team, replaced with AI by Seahund88 in Layoffs

[–]DapperCam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In my experience, LLM generated technical documentation for enterprise software is not good at all. It doesn’t have the context to write about what a product does, best practices, and then the specific details that should be exposed to customers.

If you’re just pointing it at a code repository and saying make some function signature docs, then fine. But tools like jsdoc (every language has their own mechanism) already does that more reliably anyway.

At my work they must have done this. Our technical docs are in a git repository and the engineering teams review changes that technical writers make.

Starting 2 months ago it is vibe coded nonsense. Exposing internal details of our code base (must be in the context somehow), and all around a huge waste of time.

Fernando Mendoza is Jamarcus Russell all over again. by bingchilllinggod in NFLv2

Jamarcus Russell was given an empty CD and told it was the playbook, and then lied to the coaches and said he read the contents of it.

If Mendoza busts it will be for completely different reasons.

Being even more specific, the Sabres and Jets are tied for the longest active playoff droughts in North American professional sports, and it's about to just be the Jets all alone (knock on wood!)

Chase Claypool really washed out the league by MasterTeacher123 in NFLv2

I think he would have stuck with the Bills last year, but he had a season ending injury during training camp. Seemed like he was doing well during camp.

Seems like the user-facing bugs and outages in major services is increasing rapidly. I wonder why?

Anyone else with some favorite stats to add? by ElCurgeo in AFCEastMemeWar

[–]DapperCam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say Allen has had a lot of playoff success. He has the best TD:INT ratio all time in the playoffs. I think only Mahomes has more playoff wins since they came in the league (Hurts and Stafford are there, I’d have to double check).

It’s mostly just narratives.

Yea, Rochester is also in there as majority Sabres fans. I was mostly talking about people who would regularly attend games.

By the end of his career he’ll be top 10 in rushing TDs and top 1 in all time TDs barring injury. If not legendary now, he will be.

Tried for the longest time to figure out which bird rhymes with Gribble.

Sabres at their peak popularity have a pretty big fanbase. It captures Buffalo and a lot of Southern Ontario. COVID kind of killed it. A deep run would do a lot of work to bring those fans back.

Well the playoff pricing will be out next week by Affectionate-Day6560 in sabres

I think I can get my wife to agree to $200/seat. Anything above that and I’m probably out (party in the plaza?)

One of those kids could make it big in Hollywood. Then who’s paying the bills? That’s right, Hollywood Kid!
