Yes, LLM is a tool. And CEOs of the tech companies are retaining developers not because there is value in writing code by hand, it's because developers can use that tool effectively and responsibly: they can tell bad code from good cod

Yeah, can't agree more, and my experience is pretty much the same as you describe.

by dimonomid 5d ago
Yeah a small amount of manually-written code still makes sense, when it's faster to write it than to tell LLM to write it. In particular comments. I'm not a fan of the comment style LLM tends to write, so I often just write them m

Of course checking the LLM's output and testing it and iterating on it is factored in. And yeah that verification and testing and iteration where most of the time goes, and still it ends up being significantly faster than typing everyt

Yeah if it's done as part of learning effort, then I def agree.

by dimonomid 5d ago
True, but having written enough (from many years of doing it full time), the returns from writing more are diminishing. But yes I agree that as part of learning effort it's important to write, too.

It's very important to understand what's happening, sure. Blindly shipping AI-produced code without understanding is just irresponsible. But how does writing code helps with that? Reading helps a lot, but writing just slows things

I'd love to see open source win, for the reasons the article talks about and others, but so far I'm not convinced this is actually happening, unfortunately.

To me, literally writing code by hand instead of letting AI do it feels like digging a foundation pit with a shovel instead of letting an excavator do it. Sure it can be done but much slower and the benefits are questionable. But curious if

Hey mcint, fyi both of these issues are addressed: the localhost one is addressed for real, and a Match issue is worked around: while it's still not properly implemented, at least it doesn't prevent Nerdlog from starting now. Just

by dimonomid 1y ago
Yeah, I agree. Gonna try and get it done on some weekend. Thanks for trying it out, and for all the suggestions, very helpful!

by dimonomid 1y ago
Thanks for sharing! Good to know that nerdlog turns out to be helpful not only for devs (the original use case), but also for DevOps :) Fyi, support for journalctl was added to master, in case you wanted to try it out. I didn't yet add

by dimonomid 1y ago
I see, interesting. If you don't mind me asking, is it a sysadmin kind of job? Just trying to understand the use case better. Regardless, journalctl support is the single most requested feature, so yeah I'll at least try to make t

by dimonomid 1y ago
Yeah well the 2-files limitation is mentioned in some other place; but I agree this section could be rephrased to make it more clear too.

I only had the blood circulation issues from compression during sleeping, and also had no idea until today that the nerve damage like that is possible. I wonder how could it be prevented, if it can. I seriously hope I won't have to dea

by dimonomid 1y ago
Damn I'm sorry to hear that. I'll see if I can get void linux installed somewhere to test it. Good luck with whatever you're going through!

by dimonomid 1y ago
Fyi I've done a simple benchmark today, and journalctl is indeed a lot slower than simply reading log files. In case you're interested: https://github.com/dimonomid/nerdlog/issues/7#issuecomment-2...

I don't think there's anything wrong with this format, it looks good. The most important thing for nerdlog is that all components of the timestamp must be at the fixed offsets from the beginning of each line. So I believe it can b

Fyi I was going to create a Github issue for the journald support, but apparently someone else filed it first: https://github.com/dimonomid/nerdlog/issues/7 Just posting it in case you want to subscribe to it
