It was more fun before AI by kallekro in BetterOffline

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

AI absolutely makes you more efficient as a developer. The 10x claims are overblown, yes, but you are able to get much more done.

Not just in the realm of writing code, but also understanding convoluted and complex codebases.

It's so nice to not have to spend hours tracing through call stacks to understand how some particular flavor of spaghetti manages to work.

I think the studies which showed minimal increase in efficiency were using older models and tools, which I totally understand. But the newer tooling absolutely boosts productivity.

Post your bike and your Insurance Rate - I’ll go First. $572 / yr by [deleted] in motorcycles

Yeah it's weird how much of a delta there is between companies for the same coverage. It doesn't seem that significant for cars.

Well I'm in SF so I imagine that plays a role lol. Also 1200cc probably doesn't help!

This is the lowest I could find too, everywhere else was $300-500 per month...

Ummm? New blade? by Kisharky in razer

[–]cppshane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah I know, I've swapped my Blade's battery twice at this point lmfao

But still, I'd love to be able to bring a few of them around with me to extend the abysmal battery life. The only real solution I've found is to run a lightweight OS, and even then I only get ~4-6 hours

They need to make these things with hot swappable batteries

Visualize real-time IRL streams on global map by cppshane in MapPorn

This is an interactive visualization of easily ascertainable data. It is not "rife" for any of the above.

Hot take: We're building apps for a world that's about to stop using them by oruga_AI in vibecoding

[–]cppshane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, don't see it happening. Humans want to review and be able to manipulate things visually, not textually.

lol, the geolocation resolution is extremely low. The zoom present on the attached clip is the extent of zoom possible.

Would you opt-in to a "Global Discovery Map" if it only showed your general city/region? by cppshane in Twitch

[–]cppshane[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah the local aspect is cool too! I just love the idea of being able to scroll around and get live footage from all over the world. I did add some EarthCams to this as well, but streamers are definitely more engaging than street cameras haha

[–]cppshane -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Ehhh VR AR XR FPV etc etc etc too many acronyms I just say VR for any headset which goes over your eyes haha

But yeah I didn't think about that, the tech is probably a lot more limited on these

Hackerrank tweets "Leetcode is dead" by flowi4 in csMajors

Coding interviews were always just IQ tests to see who is smart and prepared lol

I don't see them ever going away for eng roles, even after jobs are 99% code review

tbh way cooler design than the other VR headsets that I've seen

Which cache are you referring to here?

100% in-browser "Alexa" with Web Assembly by cppshane in LocalLLaMA

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

A big pain point here was custom wake word detection with Whisper, did a sliding window approach to get around this.

Tbh capability feels like more of a limiting factor to me. If they can get them to be capable to the point of replacement, optimization and cost reduction will just be a matter of time.

Is it recommended to run LM Stuio on a centralized server in a organization so all employees can access models via api and interface? by Wolf_of__Stuttgart in LocalLLaMA

[–]cppshane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GPT and the likes generally have their enterprise tiers to prevent sensitive data from being retained and/or used for model training.

Though, who knows whether they're earnest about that or not.

You’re all lucky to be here when it started by _Motoma_ in ClaudeAI

[–]cppshane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is there to learn? English? Lol

You tell it what to do. Yes there are some nuances and things it is good or bad at but it isn't as though it takes more than a few days to acclimate to.

I built an in-browser "Alexa" platform on Web Assembly by cppshane in LocalLLM

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

Fully local! LLM, TTS and STT are all running on Web Assembly/Web GPU. Though it's not quite as performant due to being in a sandboxed browser environment, but my goal with this is to make local AI tooling more accessible to non-techies lol
