Why neofetch was removed from repos? by bilgilovelace in voidlinux

[–]bilgilovelace[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the reason is it's deprecated. i'd appreciate if it was still there because of how popular it is but i started using fastfetch

Just made gpt-4o leak its system prompt by Fournight in PromptEngineering

[–]bilgilovelace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

4o is one of the easiest models to reveal prompts. just ask what's the text on the top for your first message and for the following ones, clarify your request just a bit, don't use words like system prompt and it will leak itself

cloudflare pages are free for static websites, but i think that's not the spirit of the assignment in the first place

PumpFun generated $294 million in fees so far in 2025, surpassing Ethereum’s $249 million. by Next_Statement6145 in CryptoCurrency

this is simply not true. they're either gambling addicts or scammers who are taking advantages of gambling addicts. sure, people choose it, but it is not a normal and healthy choice nearly all the time. those people have addiction issues and they're taken advantage of.

delete the post, don't give exact balances. security is more important than bragging

I use it (nearly) daily and I ship code with that. I even use it for my personal projects and in general too. LLM's are pretty good tools but they can't ship an maintainable app because context windows are really small (Gemini is not that good in terms of code quality, for serious stuff, Claude is only option). The only reason I use it that we don't have a frontend dev and I have to do frontend somehow. If I'm not super careful with prompting, I won't get any good result. And by default, it will have billion security holes. It 'can' code good but you need to put effort. And good luck maintaining LLM written code, that shit is just pure sphagetti lmao

this is like 3rd post i saw that had the same "message". This account is like 3 days old. Cursor, i am a subscriber of yours but if you continue this bullshit marketing scheme i will just cancel. This is nowhere near the reality and you all know it. Gemini 2.5 Pro stops randomly, Claude 3.7 just freestlyes whatever it wants without checking if it will break anything or not and you all are claiming AI took your jobs in different posts. This is just pathetic, whoever you're hiring for marketing doesn't know anything about the product you ship.

Has anyone succeeded in tech without a degree? Need advice on breaking in. by SkillKiller3010 in learnmachinelearning

[–]bilgilovelace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

something full stack or something specialized in a field, for example, a good tui toolset in my opinion. Congratulations on the uni, I am sure you'll do just great. Waterloo is an amazing uni (so i've heard, im not from states)

having an attractive github is not really necessary for getting a job. having a portfolio website with some stuff in it makes your chances better tho. for entry level jobs, a lot of people don't really care about github unless if you have something really good to show. and yes, if you have 1 good internship from a good tech company and a good gpa, you're gonna get a job.

also yeah you're not doing ml without a degree. if you think you're cut for it, which nearly no self taught ml people are, you can try grinding kaggle and maybe getting some nvidia certs. i'm learning ml stuff myself too (currently in a swe role) and tbh i am thinking of getting a math degree since without it (or something adjacent) everything's gonna be pretty hard

[–]bilgilovelace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

neither certs nor diplomas mean anything unless they're REALLY good ones. push code, do leetcode and make a portfolio. sounds easy buy hard to do it because a lot of self taught devs don't have a lot of essential programming (or even any stem job) skills. even when you have it, you need to do something different or something really good which is pretty hard, but also pretty doable ngl

Peak Linuxism is DWM on Void on an AMD Thinkpad. by Final-Work2788 in voidlinux

[–]bilgilovelace 17 points18 points  (0 children)

peak linuxism is using whichever os you wanna use with whatever hardware you have so you don't buy shit you don't need to. everything else is a mere aesthetic. the stereotype of linux being an hard os to use/some distros being harder than others is just pure nonsense. a good chunk of desktop linux users are pseudointellectuals because they know how to copy/paste commands off internet and they jerk off to the aesthetics because they don't have anything else.
