I don't think the chess analogy grabs here. In chess, you play _against_ the chess computer. Take the same approach and let the chess computer play FOR the player and see how far he gets.

Might be a weird suggestion but here we go: - use whatever diff tool you used before LLMs came around and actually review the code? Just a suggestion. If people claim they always examine the full output at the end before they commit it, th

Cool cool cool. So if you use LLMs as junior devs, let me ask you how future awesome senior devs like you will come around? From WHAT job experience? From what coding struggle?

Maybe unpopular, but papers should be in n markdown flavor to be determined. Just to have them more machine readable.

Count how many services you have that are not already defined by the system itself in its order? So, remove core system services. System itself should already make sure that USB starts after PCIE and all that. So go and count all the servic

Still daily driving an old x220 and a T480. Last time they were actually decent. You can pry them out of my cold dead hands. I wish they'd make something like the x220 again.

Best practice would be to pack the service into a jail and then use `ractl` to monitor I/O. Could also then monitor the VNET socket of the jail for network stats. Or you just grab the PID and get it through that. A bit more manual, but

Here's an idea for LLM makers: allow for a very rigid and structured Claude.md file. One that gives detailed instructions, as void of ambiguity as possible. Then go and refine said language, allow maybe for more than one file to give i

The just released FreeBSD 15 for example as a major release is supported until end of 2029, how much more LTS support do you want? The minor point releases are close to a year in support. And that is only talking base system. Packages and p

Spin up a VM, may that be locally or a cloud VM, throw an OpenBSD or a FreeBSD. If you are into mail servers, static http etc then OpenBSD might be your jam. Or try FreeBSD and Jails. Jails are absolutely fantastic. Ditch the LLMs (not insi

It's up to you to say check in your init script if you need to start another service before you. In terms of uptime or IO and stuff, those metrics are already available. Be that via SNMP or other means. Say you start an nginx in system

Addendum to my other reply: it comes down to the "not invented here" problem which always invites weirdly complex solutions to problems that don't exist. Linux is "just" the kernel and every distro invites new solut

It autodiscovers the dependency chain or shit like that? If you got 500+ services that need to be orchestrated you honestly have a very different problem. I love the simplicity of RC scripts. Easy to understand, easy to debug, it just fucki

SBCL is an absolute beast. I think only surpassed by LispWorks, but SBCL is a miracle machine. Even without type annotations it usually performs well enough.

It is unnecessarily complex to begin with. On top of that, the maintainers are historically not the most open to criticism and try to aggressively push the adoption. So much so that Gnome for example now has very strong dependecies on syste

That is the opposite of good. If only big companies can afford bespoke hardware, they literally become a monopoly, At home LLMs and other usages become either prohibitively expensive in purchase and running cost or you have to deal with a l

And if someone only learns coding from LLMs do you truly believe that they understand the code they are working with? I highly doubt that. And the experience comes from actually stepping through a debugger, from doing research and not the n

Problem is that the "good" developers have built up a lot of experience prior to LLMs and therefore can distinguish good from bad code and know the limitations. But if everyone is supposed to use and embrace AI, how will new devel

You could send a good amount of small probes and make them become the big antenna dish basically. As long as you cover the bases, you can have layers of "big antenna dishes" in onion layers.

On the other hand though, updates on OpenBSD are the most painless updates I have ever done. I am more concerned about it's usage of UFS instead of something more robust for drives.

I mean, I definitely love that OpenBSD is the "reference" implementation of PF, but the network performance definitely lacks a bit and UFS is quite outdated and prone to errors on outages. ZFS has the upper hand there and FreeBSD&
