>AI slop cleanup businesses soon Oh, that's been a thing for a couple years now. Going in and fixing vibecoded projects, especially shit produced in the early goldrush, seems to be a burgeoning industry. Funny thing is, the fixer

Funny enough I was processing some handwritten tables into excel with Sonnet. It did way better than I thought it would, I'd say like 95%. I did have it put confidence indexes next to the output per line, and that was pretty useless,

This reads less like LLM output than it does someone just transcribing their brief notes as they did their research. Lot of missing subject nouns, which is not something I'd expect to see from AI output.

Sounds about right. Yes, I've been doing it for decades now and besides telling you who's selling email lists, it makes filtering much easier. Filtering by To: is pretty low effort compared to Bayesian spam filters etc. They ge

It's encouraging future investment on a false pretext. I'd say that's fraud.

It's still horrendous.

Exactly my experience. I remember thinking to myself that if this is what people get exposed to when they try to use a coding agent, no wonder there's so much bad-mouthing going on about LLMs. You use CC and you get usable output wit

What's wrong with Cursor? I get as much use out of Cursor using Auto with some Opus for $20 as I do out of CC for $140.

IDK how anyone makes anything of Copilot 365. My wife knows I use models all the time to build things, so she asked me to help her use this "Copilot" thing. I flailed around on her work laptop for a few hours and I'll be dam

Looks sketchy af. I imagine it'll be a runaway success, and I'm not even kidding.

That doesn't bode well for GRR Martin getting the last book done.

Last time I used Gemini I watched it burn tokens at three times the rate of any other models arguing with itself and it rarely produced a result. This was around Christmas or shortly after. Has that BS stopped?

There are circumstances and soil types that encourage tillage, usually dealing with water. Organic farming trades spray for diesel fuel. And farmers don't like change, but no-till is so ubiquitous that it's hard to find farms th

Good lord, don't hire a plumber to fix the pipes, you'd better do it yourself then. Maybe you like plumbing; then plumb. But most people will just pay for the person that does a good enough job that they can take a shower in the

The last probably doesn't apply to many here. We're all jonesing for the next cool tech thing.

No-till feeds the world. The amount of no-till in current full-scale agriculture is by far the biggest proportion in North America and Europe.

by ikidd 7mo ago
This is actual reality. No-till is great until you have to till because of circumstances. Sometimes what happens needs to be dealt with; we've had years of heavy, heavy rain, and despite decades of no-till farming, it still can'

We no-till farm thousands of acres in the middle of millions more acres of no-till grain farming. I don't think you have a clue what you're talking about.

by ikidd 7mo ago
The biggest difference in no-till is water infiltration and retention. The next is ability to work land earlier with equipment that would sink in tilled soil when wet. Another is less equipment passes, for fuel use as well as owning the eq

Proxmox is just KVM/qemu with management modules running on Debian. I set up Plasma on a node for a while and used it for a workstation for a couple years, and it worked fine.

Cockpit is rudimentary and hardly worth the time. And as far as I can tell, there's very little interest in expanding it from the broader community, as the lack of plugins would seem to indicate. It doesn't have a patch on Webmin

This sounds almost as hard as changing your email address on your Cursor account. I don't wish that experience on anyone. Anthropic is almost as bad, but at least they can be arsed to get back to you eventually. For the uninitiated, b

CIBC cost me $5 and a bunch of time trying to reverse a mistake that left me stranded in the middle of nowhere when I was pretty young. In the intervening 30 year I've made it my mission whenever their name comes up to make sure nobod

Even for Openclaw, the response API is a better way to interact with it adhoc. I tell Cursor how to contact OC with a bearer key, and they work things out in the background when I'm building something for Openclaw.
