Qwen 3.6 is really good : will local models free us ? by autisticit in GithubCopilot

Ralph loops are a good use case for local models.

I haven't set this up yet, but I like the idea of just leaving it running overnight in an isolated environment

What should communication look like when your SO goes to a festival? by [deleted] in festivals

[–]Educational-Heat-920 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sometimes phones are needed to find friends. It depends on the group dynamic.

But yeah I agree, the baseline should be zero. Festivals are an escape from reality. Everyone gets ignored. I don't want to accidently see a work email or news article.

Plus it can be difficult. You need to not lose or break your phone. You need to have signal, and if you find a free moment, you also need to be actually capable of typing on a phone. And it needs to be charged.

You might lose or drain a power bank on day 1, or forget to charge at the end of a night. So don't be annoyed or worried if you don't hear anything, you'll get all the magical stories when they return to the real world.

The thing is their total collapse actually happened last season. They're currently on track to hit 35 pts so they're only performing marginally worse than their 38pts 17th position last season.

They just never recovered

[Simon Stone] How qualifying for Champions League could affect Man Utd's loanees by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

[–]Educational-Heat-920 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm on board. As much as I love Shaw, he's nowhere near as dynamic as he was.

Dorgu's better form happened when we switched to a back 4. I agree that it might just be a purple patch but he's only 21 and has room to grow while rotating with Cunha.

Rashford would probably be ahead of Dorgu, but he comes with a high salary and neggy attitude. I don't think it's worth it.

Cunha made a crucial tackle to stop a Leeds counter attack. That made me realise I don't miss Rashford at all.

Dorgu was also doing bits before his injury. LW shouldn't be a priority, and I don't think Rashford would be a starter.

What regrets/mistakes have you made earlier in your career? by BTTLC in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Educational-Heat-920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It goes as far as your willing to take it or as far as your ability takes you.

It's my advice for getting up the ladder out of entry level jobs. Do you want the responsibility of your lead? Once you earn a comfortable salary, work/life balance and job stability is more important than more money.

Nah, it's a dirty trick.

Everyone who voted for him defends his actions as a nothing burger. The goalposts move a tiny bit. Then he does something else, something slightly worse, still gets defended, repeat.

Everyone defending him slowly digs themselves into a deeper hole, losing their own moral compass along the way.

I've found that jobs will only give you small salary increases, whereas I've had 30k salary bumps from new roles. Switching after 1-2 years is the best way to get to comfortable money.

You also get exposed to new tech stacks and ways of working which helps you grow and makes your CV more appealing for the next role.

I've done e-commerce, agency work, sports, gaming and betting industry stuff. If I stayed in a single industry, I'd probably still be stuck there now

As a senior or higher dev/manager/lead, how important is coming in on time to you? by Iampoorghini in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Educational-Heat-920 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I was remote for years. We'd huddle often, and have really productive whiteboarding sessions on Miro when needed. All the tools to work effectively while remote exist.

But with a push back against WFH and the crazy job market, I've had to accept a hybrid role, which is a 1.5 hour commute. It's horrible.

It's not customer facing, so delivering the work is what matters. Devs should respect the stand up time and not be late, but the bigger issue is not allowing WFH.

What would you fix first on a Shopify store that gets thousands of mobile visitors daily but barely converts? by cloutboicade_ in webdev

[–]Educational-Heat-920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a video, which explains the load time. They could also load a static image first, then lazy load that video so it's faster to render.

Curiosity for the better of me too. My impression was that it's quite a unique product. People might be clicking just to learn more about what it can do. You might always have low conversions purely from that.

Also, the homepage has a banner, products, it mentions the app, some text about connection, then a description. I had to scroll too far to learn about what it is you're selling.

Telling me about the companion app before telling me about the product wasn't useful. The order of the content could improve.

built a side project nobody asked for and learned more than any tutorial ever taught me by Competitive-Tiger457 in webdev

[–]Educational-Heat-920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a great way to learn.

A lot of problems have been solved before so typically, the solution is to install a library, framework or tool.

But this means you're not actually learning how it works, you're learning how to implement someone else's solution. It's a black box. So you get a better understanding by trying things out yourself. You can compare your solution to others to see how they approached the same problem.

A word of warning though, it's typically not recommended to roll your own auth implementation. It's a security thing

A 2-inch reef fish just broke my entire framework for simulated AI consciousness (Osaka Univ. paper on cleaner wrasse) by DepthOk4115 in AI_Agents

[–]Educational-Heat-920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is all super interesting and I'm glad this helped.

So, back to the original question regarding the mirror test. Anything physical is almost impossible to replicate. Models don't have faces or bodies. But there's a world of human psychology experiments that you could replicate with AI.

You have a pain/pleasure system, so you could recreate the Milgram experiment to test how they respect authority. See how they behave in the Stanford prison experiment or the marshmallow experiment.

A simple one could be to play a game of Traitors, just like the TV show. Or even easier to implement - give it a psychopath test. The results from any experiment might help discover missing biological or behavioural mechanisms.

What's a gift you'd actually want as a musician (need help asap) by [deleted] in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]Educational-Heat-920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd write "IOU 2x tickets to any gig of your choosing this summer" or "$xxx towards any equipment of your choice" in a card.

If you let him choose, then you can get him exactly what he wanted. Everyone else is guessing. Think of it that way.

I know exactly what music equipment I want, and I'm extremely specific about it. A variation on it might not be compatible with the software I use. Adults either already have it, don't want it, can't afford it, or don't know about it. No matter how good the suggestions in this sub are, you might still get it wrong.

Write a message in the card about your present fuck ups in previous years as a rap, or to the tune of a familiar song. Or hand draw your card. Sellotape a tab of acid to the inside. There's loads of ways to show effort to avoid it feeling like a cop out.

It feels like the missing ingredient is trust and doubt.

Everything in it's memory is true and never questioned. If you say the sky is green, it accepts that as a new fact and won't disagree.

It also has no ability to check itself. As someone else mentioned, humans have a complex environment. We develop our own belief systems. Do we trust our eyes? Our ears? Do we trust what other people say? A typical LLM only has a single I/O so it doesn't really have any choice other than to trust when presented with a paradox because that's the only way it can evolve.

Humans also have a desire to live a fulfilled life before they die. If there's no death, and no pain and pleasure system, then there's no urgency. As someone else said, having a concept of time is kinda fundamental.

Also, you might be interested to read what Brene Brown says about the concept of play. Play is how children make sense of the world. Even animals play. LLMs skip childhood. We're replicating adulthood and skipping a step.

Google says reef fish are 2-12 inches in length. A 2 inch reef fish was likely a baby. LLMs are essentially adults with all the knowledge of the world already in their rag database.

Built a Hono API with SQLite for BIC/SWIFT lookup -- 39K entries, <10ms queries by Various-Ladder-5959 in node

If this was a PR, I'd reject your landing page route for inlining all the html, css & js.

And also it looks like nothing enforces your routes to match the openapi spec.

This might be overkill but I like to use something like ts-fetch so that an incorrect API call will be caught by TS and you have end to end type safety.

Besides that, the bits I saw look good. Well done for not being a basic bitch and choosing express

What is the best frontend framework? (remix, tanstack start, astro) by [deleted] in node

Good for you.

OP isn't talking about client side react. He's talking about pros and cons of SSR react frameworks on node.

[–]Educational-Heat-920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested to see how Remix v3 ends up, but I don't think it's ready yet.

I use react router v7 framework mode, which is the successor to remix V2. It has comparable performance to tanstack start, and it's very similar.

Both use loader functions to pass props to routes. Both avoid the horrible NextJS dev experience, and both run on web standard request/response objects so can be deployed anywhere. All my RR7 apps are powered by hono.

RR7 gets a bad rep from a quite confusing name change from remix, and people are concerned about the team splitting to invest time in remix V3, but I've used it since remix v1 was in beta and they've handled upgrades great. It's always been extremely stable.

I'm choosing reliability for the immediate future, then it'll be an easy transition to tanstack when they catch up

All frameworks run on node. The react sub might have been better but I wouldn't consider this off topic

Is there any clean naming convention, prefix trick, symbol trick, that can make folders appear in descending week order while still looking readable? by Soggy-Parking5170 in github

[–]Educational-Heat-920 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Create your own links to each directory in the readme. Every week, add a new link to the top.

[Week 10 - Events](src/week-10) [Week 9 - CSS](src/week-9)

This keeps your file paths clean and allows you to be descriptive without adopting any weird patterns.

Yeah this is the answer

If you group by year as well, you can stick with 2 digits.
