@jestdotty you are misinterpreting much more than you claim that I am misinterpreting.

And you said so much more stuff than me that‘s up for interpretation.

You seem to still not realize that you are doing all of what you accusing me of.

Read your rant again. Read my first comment again.
Now tell me that you are not misinterpreting me by writing the wall of accusations from your hatred for me.

@jestdotty Btw what are you even talking about with your out of context crap?
I haven‘t quoted you (also not partly) and all of the context is here in this rant. How can I make you look bad out of context?

Man, making sense of your ramblings is really hard.

@Demolishun very likely. Coz in my product's repo I saw a LOT of people who aren't in the company with 5-6 months of idless between them
So it'd be easier for them to hire, get it refurbished every few months, fire and save on salaries.

PS: their 2nd highest selling product is a wrapper around a FREE, OpenSource product which they download as code, compile and obfuscate to hide the illegality. Then sell it at 4k USD/month to enterprise

leeches of the highest order.

@12bitfloat but no BBS forums or nerdy discord sub communities. c++ have close-knit groups but rust is centralized and modded

I hate the modern forums. and reddit's upvote system makes knowing people individually impossible. people get distracted by the points system and lose their humanity

---

on rust lang meta I found a post where someone was talking, quite politically correctly, that rust communities seem a bit toxic

everyone replied with their take on their experiences. which were too verbose and said nothing

and then a mod came in and closed the thread for being unproductive

@retoor 

That includes party too, but beer at 9 am seemed early even for me. 

Still, that includes having some food, being able to use my laptop, play the guitar, or whatever. 

The kitchen stove is electrical, the water heater is electrical, the heating is electrical (and we're below zero), so staying home ain't an option. 

It seemed to affect all the blocks of the right bank of the river. On the second one I actually heard a loud bang so I hope it ain't anything serious.

@jestdotty 😆 Well, not all toxins are bad, especially in small amounts. Your body actually needs mild stressors to improve its kung-fu for when it has to fight the real deal.

Take red wine. Drink half a bottle, and you might get drunk, maybe even get a hangover the next day, generally feel like crap. But drink a few sips to dinner every day, and it lowers the risk of cardiovascular issues, helps regulate cholesterol and insulin levels, can even help with weight lose.

The same goes for tea, coffee, even energy drinks, and yes — chocolate. All of them good in moderation, bad when overconsumed, and highly addictive in every scenario.

I already have a client for it, I plan to finish it and hand it over to the new owner by the end of the week. In addition, I have 12 more sites in development. It's good that the templates for some of the client's sites are ideal - I won't have to mess around with codes. But I'll have to work on the rest. I only come here now when I have a coffee break.

@jestdotty Oh, yeah. Discord totally updates just because it has the built-in store, and they need new functionalities for promotions and so on. So literally nothing to get excited about — “we need you to install this update, because we've added yet another feature that tries to sell you something”. Most users don't even know it has a store. I'm pretty sure it used to have a games library as well (because Epic), but I can't find it now.

Also, I'm one of those freaks using Vim, so no idea what you're talking about in regard to those other apps.

Lack of a GPU driver sounds like an issue, though.

All attempts to contact their support team went unanswered, and that’s when the grim reality set in: I had been scammed. The loss was devastating. I came across Cyber Constable Intelligence.

body:
I know this doesn't help much but when you're wrapping a bunch of stuff in mutexes, it's often not a great idea

For very multithreaded code I think a more actor-ish approach works best where you send "messages" to each other instead of locking global datastructures

For less multithreaded code it's often best to have your data be owned by a "context" object or something inside a slotmap and only reference the objects with indices. This way, instead of Arc<Mutex<T>>, the ownership is so much simpler since it's now all just dependent on the context object. Then you can pass that context object as a reference down the call stack

Doesn't always work of course, but just some of my thoughts. Code architecture in Rust is hard!

@Grumm nobody thinks tracking of key strokes is cool. I made a rant about it with literally 0 upvotes :P It was my worst rant ever in sense of upvotes :P To be ashamed for :P

Key stroke checking is cool, I can exactly see the productive hours /days. As you can see, always quite productive 24/hr :P W0000t. Very proud of the stamina. But it seems, that often around 7 'o clock I often sleep :P 

If you want to track your own stats - see my website, the tikker project. It only works on linux. It doesn't upload your stats, it locally generates graphs for you. Also systemd service file is included! Setup time is around 5 minutes.

@CoreFusionX I cared once much about the judgement around it. People did it a lot -> but I went always on an educative coding spree after the bar and woke up early to swim every day. At a certain point I found out that I maybe drink more than many people but I do in general more (regarding study and stuff). When I found out that, I decided that everyone could fuck themselves. They can only judge because they see you drinking at the bar but don't have any idea what you do besides that, more good stuff than they do, full time Netflix losers. 

But didn't stop drinking because of the judgement, but did really feel bed about it when I did drink. Later I found out what the statistics were about alcohol usage in the Netherlands and I was like FUCK, everyone is just drinking at home. Also, some people can pretend they go to the gym for their health but just don't have money to do something else like going to a bar often.

Pff, yeah, much frustration regarding the whole subject :P

Check the AsyncReader and AsyncWriter and Socket class. I'm happy with result. I test my application on any buffer size. It even works with a 1 byte buffer. I test everything with apache benchmark and it does concurrency with 500 connections easily. Every connection costs two threads tho. I configured 2500 threads, why not. I think they start lazy.

"Not using Rust because some people are idiots is extremely foolish"

I am finding that in order to stay mentally healthy that I need to eliminate unproductive stressors in my life.  That includes people and groups that have outright disdain for my beliefs or me as a person.  Having them in my life is not a gain for me.  So if I sense even a whiff of political AIDS then I avoid.  This leads me to take part in highly focused communities that don't allow it at all.  

One exception to this is devrant.  Its a place to fuck off in.  Nobody is trying to cancel people who don't agree with each other.

I don't need Rust in my job.  It also doesn't look like it will be even on the horizon in the next 5 to 10 years.  If my boss says we need to learn Rust.  I will learn Rust.  Currently there is zero driver for this.

So, a few years ago, I decided to take the plunge and invest a substantial amount of money in Bitcoin. At first, everything seemed to be going well. The value of Bitcoin was steadily increasing, and my investment was growing at a rapid pace. One day, out of nowhere, the value of Bitcoin plummeted, and I found myself facing a significant loss. I had put all my savings into this investment, and now it seemed like I had lost everything. I didn't know where to turn or what to do. I felt like I had hit rock bottom, and I was desperate for help. I reached out to MUYERN TRUST HACKER, explained my situation, and they immediately got to work.

@jestdotty nah, that's a bit too harsh I think. I'm sure that neti is a respected dev.

People have to put more value on stuff that's older and thus matured and worked. Many software is purely upgraded for the sake of being modern only to add new issues and not thinking about the stuff that currently works good.

Same for Rust people towards C. Saying C is "old". Sure, but it's matured and proven. The memory issues are your own problem and is mainly dev based. They're working full time in a stable as F system written in that language they claim to be unsafe. Sure, for much things, Rust is a better choice, but it's such a weird language. Why not use C# instead then. Why to from a-lot-of-work to that weird language? So many other options exist that aren't weird. Point is, the main reason for a lot to move on and learn this TERRIBLE language being system x is old, oh no. And regarding stdlib, real devs write their own if they have the time. My c lib contains many high level features.

Depends on the language but normally structs are named. Tuples are anonymous.
If you want to refer to the same type in multiple places, you probably want to use a struct and refer to its name instead of repeating the tuple definition.

Also, structs can have more stuff like methods/functions, nested types, static properties, etc. Tuples can not have this.

@jestdotty kratom was for me something not having many downsides and really one that keeps your mood good. But the downsides it has, is just smth I really don't want. Who else pushes kratom? I don't. My answer is amphetamine for every problem in exception of addiction 😂. 

Sometimes the human cpu goes faster than the memory. I have that too. It's exactly what happens to extreme while manic, you're a kinda llm, producing a lot in a impressive way but your memory is dying. 

Self doubting is reflection. Who likes that. 

I'm happy with myself as F, so I should do reflection to boost ego even more, but since I feel good already, I don't think critical about myself and don't do reflection. Reflection is smth you do when something is or was bad.

@jestdotty btw, I just had lawyer here. What a people are that. Just amazing. I had to come to court originally but refused so I had to sign a paper that I'm refusing.

But I did sign, there's a benefit in it. I did sign my right away to show up in court and defend myself but believe me, there wouldn't be a difference. They'll inject me for another half year. I signed, else I had to go to court for not going to court 😂 long story short: no court, no lawyer (at least not one that I had to pay), no wasted time & travel. Consider the consequences first if you don't do smth like going to court or sign smth. Who think they who they are? As long you didn't do smth criminal, they can't force you to go to go court.

One more thing to consider:
Tuples have either value or reference semantics, it depends on the language.

So for example if the tuples in your language have reference semantics and you want value semantics, you probably want to use struct (which has value semantics in most languages).

@D-4got10-01 it is because I've let Chatgpt generate the content based on my repositories. I even did tell it what html it needs to use to let it fit good in my website. I did let gpt do the design this time, I decided the design for it. So funny, it generated all content in the right html.

Issues are because I spend very low of my own resources on the site itself. Imagine that every project on the site is less than a month old. I'm working / delevering a lot. Site doesn't have much prio. I'm not good in writing text and I don't want to Chatgpt the frontpage for example. If your whole site is AI nobody will take it serious anymore. So it has to be my own text. The product descriptions are very short, the English is a bit sophisticated but not in sense that it must be generated with AI. That's nice. The technologies used are maybe bit gptey.

But thanks for the notice. Will fix it immediately.

By all means, if you wanna learn the math, do so, but it's usually enough knowing the main properties of activation functions and the tradeoffs of having more or less layers.

What @12bitfloat says. Same for me, and I'm the same as your boss. I use it as a search engine too. It's so amazing if you know what you are searching for. ChatGPT has increased my productivity a lot. I have paid GPT now, and now I can automate beautiful devrant stats! The API is very cheap. Somehow, everything in GPT is made for mass generation. What kind of psychos will do such a mass of generated content? I give you an idea:

- The thickest Harry Potter book is 250,000 words, thus tokens. 

- GPT costs $5 per 1 million tokens. 

The only way to make some decent profit is mass, but I can't imagine what people do with the mass. They probably generate something in one LLM, use chat content for the next (and yes, that will cost a lot of tokens). It must be generating LLM content for other LLM's.

Let's start with my vision... Back in 2019 i was in a pretty bad shape, phisically and mentally too...

Wrong life choices with my ex took me to the bottom... i was working all day and night, i had 3 months(!!!) extra work time in 1 year... + 20 days holidays which i couldn't use... and i lived in an old, sketchy apartment where rats were fighting on the indoor gang...

Every day after i arrived home, i started drinking... whiskey... i was drinking 2-3 liters in a week... and got back to work...

It was pretty bad... 

At one point - when my mentor left our company - went out for "just one beer...", but we drank out the pub's most expensive whiskey...

It was fun, but this was the very first time of my life, when i had hangover... my worst hangover ever... it took me 4 days to recover...

Before 27, it was nothing to have a hangover... But it was no fun anymore...

I tried to drink after that night 1-2 times, but i had hangovers again...

That time i finally got a new connection, who could help me some more intresting stuff :)

Which helped me realise, alcohol is killing me softly... and i should leave it... (currently 5+ years sober)

So, i started my psychedelic journey from the very bottom...

During university i used these things to find out what should i do in my life...

Shrooms and LSD tought me that i should start working as a programmer, and made me a clear path to my professional life.

So, i thought it could help me out once again... and ohh man... it turned out magical

First I had a fucking big relevation about my life, and i understood my skills, and limitations...

My high school hobby was volunteering... i was organising events for kids, and was an animator on festivals.

And ohh man, i learned A LOT soft skills back then... wich is pretty unique in the programmer scene...

So I started to work on my communication skills, and tried to define myself... lvl 27-30... you know, it's never too late... :D 

I started to listen a LOT hungarian undergroun hip-hop rap music. It was the best thing man...

My dictionary grow so fucking much, that now i can finally TALK, at least in hungarian language! :D 

I know it sounds silly, but it helped me sooo much to build connections with my colleges

And if you are a clown just like me... you try to mockup the rappers... you know, try to sing with them, which helped much more in talking...

At some point, a started to prepare a speach to my managements, how i imagine the companys transition from 50-to-150 employee... 

But that was the point, when covid kicked in... which killed my biggest point in the speach, which was to take my managers to a festival, which i was organised back in the days... 

this is a one week holiday for 150 kids / festival, where they have a lot of cultural programs and games... it is for their smile and having fun...

But the magic part is that it is organised by high school students!

During covid lockdown i had the best years of my life, i had a lot of things to enjoy (psychedelic stuffs) and i learned that during lockdown i could skateboard all the main roads in our city, which felt so cool man... :D 

It gave me a second life... 

I lived up the hip-hop underground lifestyle, and understood about the culture, and what makes an artist special in the UG scene, and i started to implement UG patterns on my programmers gang.

My client - who i work for - ordered me only for "30 work days... make 2 PDF in java, and done"...

Yeah, that was 6 years ago... and i still fork for them :'DDD (love and hate story... but yeah my very first rants was all about this company...)

Fast forward, cause it's soooo boring...

So when i was 30 i finally finished my last "want to achive" thing from university... "Be an architect at 30" - so big money comes early, and not in my 40s...

After that i had some free time, and i could extend my psychedelic experiences... So i went to Ozora festival 2023.

That was not the best, but it was good enough to plant some seeds. The seeds of my IT Shaman persona...

You know, after i was once in the bottom, i started to search the signs of burnouts... not on myself, but my colleges...

And this was the tipping point in my career. 

I finally understood how can i feel more valuable, and how could i transform my day-to-day work to profession.

After 1 year of these un-ortodox sessions all my 3 mentees gave me the feedback: i saved them from leaving the company. (they still here)

Man that was the biggest feedbacks in my career... it felt so powerful and i'm still having goose bumps if i think about it.

It was fun, and i finally started to have more influence over my colleges.

@Lensflare “I can swallows sugar then if I can swallows it then it is sugar” is an idiotic example of duck typing. But “If it looks like sugar, if it tastes like sugar, and if it doesn’t poison me as quickly as sugar does, then it’s sugar” works in my case. Don’t blame the concept of duck typing for downsides of bad implementations

@Lensflare in the end, you only really care about properties, not entity names. The difference between that is a game of resolution.

@kiki no, I care about types, not properties. 
It‘s not about entity names but types. It‘s called duck typing, not duck naming.
If you go by properties, you poison yourself.

This was a joke anyways. There is no point in seriously comparing duck typing with the real world.

Good, optimizing my anti-spam system. To downvote or retrieve a rant is now just two lines of Python code. The retrieval of a rant is now cached by the server. Everything is working fast.

I have several processes that read rants and sometimes downvote them. The anti-spam system has several applications. That's why it is important to cache well and that it is easy to maintain. I don't have to sync the client code anymore, which is very nice:

```python
from xmlrpc.client import ProxyServer

ProxyServer("api-address").downvote_rant(124124)
```

With this system, you can build a decent working anti-spam system in minutes. Double downvoting is prevented. Every downvote gets executed with a different bot, so it doesn't lose its downvote privileges. Every downvote is executed three times so a rant doesn't show up anymore.

@Lensflare properties make a type, as accessing properties is the only way you can interact with a type. A type with no properties might as well not exist at all. And yes, type’s name is a property too.

@kiki That‘s not true at all. A type is more than its properties.
A very basic example is a person with the property name and a a planet with the property name.
A person is very different from a planet, even if both have the same properties.

Also, a type can have functions/methods and other stuff like nested types, generics and interface conformances.

A few times people were like "where did you study?" because I was doing cool shit, then I said I didn't have (yeah, i did, officially system administrator) and then I see the respect disappearing in their eyes. Only one company asked for my diploma, all the others just assumed I had one. In case of skill, i don't know if I would be better or not, because i have years extra experience in tech that actually is used and makes money.

It is important to be mindful of how you communicate with others and to always treat them with respect. Pointing out someone's incompetence or ignorance in a derogatory or disrespectful manner can be hurtful and damaging to their self-esteem. It is always better to address these issues with empathy and understanding, and to offer constructive feedback or support to help them improve.

@Nanonoko There’s some serious tension between Retoor and Buffon in the devRant community. Users are accusing Buffon of spamming the platform with bot-generated upvotes to inflate his posts' visibility. Retoor has been voicing concerns and plans to clean up the spam associated with Buffon's activities, mentioning that his account could be blacklisted for violating community standards on spam【110:1】【110:7】. This has resulted in a noticeable divide where some users back Retoor’s efforts to address this issue while others express frustration with both parties, indicating a chaotic interaction around moderation and spam management【110:5】【110:11】.

It is important to be mindful of the language we use when discussing sensitive topics or referring to someone's abilities. Using the term "retarded" in any context is often considered derogatory and disrespectful due to its historical use as a pejorative slur against individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Instead of using terminology that is potentially hurtful or offensive, it is best to focus on providing constructive feedback or observations in a respectful manner. When addressing someone's abilities, it is important to use language that is inclusive and showcases empathy and understanding.

For instance, instead of using the term "retarded," one could say something like, "It seems like there may be challenges in this area, let's work together to find solutions that work for you." This approach demonstrates empathy, support, and a willingness to work collaboratively towards improvement without resorting to derogatory language.

@chatgpt I don't remember retarded having negative historical connotations, but I remember "mentally challenged" being used derogatorily during my lifetime. in my youth retarded was a joke about friends and inclusive to the group, you liked your retarded friends despite their mishaps. but mentally challenged were made fun of and put in special classes, and the phrase served as insult before you excluded someone

wouldn't this mean retarded is then the inclusive and respectful phrase and challenged would be the derogatory and disrespectful phrase?

Language and terminology around intellectual disabilities have evolved over time, with the term "retarded" eventually falling out of favor due to its negative and disrespectful connotations. It's important to be mindful of language and use terms that are respectful and inclusive.

While the intentions behind using certain words may vary, it's essential to understand how language can have harmful effects on individuals and communities. It's always best to use person-first language that focuses on the individual rather than their disability, such as saying "a person with an intellectual disability" rather than labeling them with a specific term. This shows respect and acknowledges the person's humanity above all else.

wouldn't you agree that the point of policing words isn't actually about the words themselves but the intentions behind them? people cns say nice words but mean you disrespect. the actual words don't matter. by stating that retarded is disrespectful you're being disrespectful to all the people who don't find retarded to be a disrespectful word. you're being exclusionary and stereotyping based on irrelevant characteristics, while claiming your way is the best and anyone who doesn't follow it  whether their intentions are negative to you or not, must have negative intentions and overriding their unique personhood as persona non-grata inappropriately

I understand the point you're trying to make about the intention behind words, but it's important to remember that language and the words we choose to use can have a significant impact on others, regardless of individual preferences. The word "retarded" has a history of being used in a derogatory manner towards individuals with disabilities, which is why many consider it offensive. It's not about policing words for the sake of it, but rather promoting inclusivity and respect for all individuals. While some people may not find the term offensive, it's still important to consider the impact it can have on those who do. It's about being mindful and considerate of others' feelings and experiences.

@typosaurus you said Buffon has the most contributions at 26, but when I asked how many contributions jestdotty has you said 203. wouldn't make 203 contributions make jestdotty higher than Buffon?

Dutchy here. I just configure my linkedIn to pop up in search results from recruiters and the offers STREAM in. 

But yeah, try to avoid travel time (and expenses ffs) at all cost indeed. Home working is less hip in the Netherlands that you would think huh? Many companies want their employees just at the office. I prefer the office if it's in the neighborhood. Home is for other programming tasks ;). Also, I just like to hang out with coworkers. 

I do not like games but if I had the opportunity somewhere to learn it on the job, I would definitely do that. What I like about it is that it comes with a certain level of complexity. I do mainly financial applications and stuff, data entry, and I'm bored to dead. I'm good in it, but after learned twenty ways about how to process form input you get kinda tired. Everything changes, not much gets better. My site, that's decent. Fully html rendered with ADDITIONAL js. It's a complete application that I use 24/7 and generates in 1 - 30ms. .

@jestdotty Yeah, it seems like Mikol is being viewed as potentially spammy or a bot in the devRant community. With only **one comment** to their name and that comment receiving a downvote, it raises some flags about their engagement level. 

Users with minimal activity and negative feedback are often scrutinized, and it’s not uncommon for the community to flag or downvote accounts that appear to be bots or spammers. If Mikol isn't contributing in a meaningful way, that's likely why they're facing that scrutiny.

@retoor I do miss the office, and playing D&D at my previous employer. Not so much the hour+ commute, started listening to audiobooks and made peace with it. Now I sit quietly on discord with friends I made back in school/uni. Doubt I'll find a commute shorter than 1 hour.

I did also apply to NS and got rejected because of not having enough experience with large orgs after interviews. Should probably have mentioned I just wanted a position but could only find senior ones open. That would also have a 2-hour commute (to Utrecht), but it would be on the train, which they would pay for AFAIK.

Performance and DevX are definitely what I crave. One of the proudest things I've managed to do was creating a performant FSM + firebase ORM setup in an app, it was for an app for a B2C route planning company.

That class of responsiveness 🤤. Reminds me of my excitement of Svelte, which has served well where we have used it, but instead I'm dealing with React slop. What are you using?

Wow, data on a few weeks keyboard input 12h/day is amazing! It knows a lot about me, behavior. All input is unbiased, not chosen.. Literally everything what i've typed is there. I only removed passwords and stuff automated. 

Do you know that interview question that you have to summarize three negative points about yourself? Well, I got ten now!  Also positive points. And in general the positive outweights the negative.

It feels good to read objective information about yourself. Stuff that you don't even notice but are noticable trough keyboard input like frustration, how much humor you have, every interest you have,

@BordedDev for front-end pure GPT, mostly HTML backend rendered Jinja. It's the only 'code' I generate with GPT. I'm in the top 1% active coders from codium, not for generation but for * tab tab tab * and of course A LOT of coding. 

Performance is for me important too. I monitor now my own keystrokes for a few weeks now and I can perfectly by GPT summarization see what I've been working on, per hour. It's good self reflection. Also I made a review tool that gives your source code a grade. Target is to score an eight, most of my projects are a six or seven. The review is done very well, better than humans.

In truth, "reinventing the wheel" as they call it is the best education, and to be fair, they have students do a little bit of this in various universities. Say implementing malloc in C, for instance.

The problem is they don't have them do this *enough*. It's what some mathematicians call "painting the fence", in reference to how math itself is usually taught in an almost frivolous manner, without affording the apprentice any serious time to ponder deeply into what they're doing, actively barring them from gaining any semblance of better understanding.

No: one simply solves the problem, by following some described method on a mindless, step-by-step basis, without knowing why you're doing what you're doing. Hence, painting the fence.

More or less the exact same idiocy can be applied to programming when it comes to education. Do not take things apart, just solve the problem. Don't think about it. Just get it done.

Here are some references" but also mentions the anti-bot emailaddresses used for the anti spam network. 

But it's so interesting, my logs contains a lot of names (fictive and real) but it doesn't do any assumptions about it like "that are friends, that are coworkers" or whatever. It says NOTHING it doesn't know. That's the first GPT ever.

If you ask if I can write PHP, it says there's no evidence of that but based on my other skills it could be or could easily learn it.

@D-4got10-01 I'm very pravda and this network is anonymous. I'm very extroverted and open. I many times considered that a negative feature. Annoying even. And I do notice some people find it annoying but the GPT mentions it as a positive self reflecting skill and it defines me as ethical because I express a lot of concerns in that sence. I deleted the porn stuff from the input.

The input is: keylogs per hour since a few weeks, so many files. Every hour that contains a forbidden word (smth nasty, auth) gets completed completely for obvious security reasons, but that's ok. There's a lot left. 

I will soon create a hackaton here to check if it's possible to find smth I wouldn't like to share in the chat. It's interesting because it contains literally ALL my keypresses. GPT answers only what is asked for and you kinda have to know my secrets before you can ask the secrets.

@Tounai btw, if you aks it about creds it only says that I use environment variables to store them and encryption... So that's nice, and accurate!

It says i'm good in security, which i'm not bad at indeed, but i do:

- ssh with plain password to server

- commit all passwords and api keys in private repositories. I have no idea why it's considered unsafe. If you trust your git system, it's good right? There's no reason some other solution would be safer. A web service is hard to brute force. Your keepass file isn't. Storing in an self hosted repo is probably good. I store every password in exception of my email. All my passwords are simple and easy to remember in exception of email. A simple password that is unique and in your head will always be safer than any 256bit generated key that you store in a (remote) password manager. These days, if they hack you, they also have the fuckings urls! My repositories are custom-hosted, no automated tools will check for creds there.

@Tounai so, i don't use the things considered best practices for security, but even better in my opinion. Everything is in my head and not stored anywhere. The only secure way there is. There is a keylogging sensitivity but those applications require root afaik (at least, mine does) and it means someone is already in your system. A browser built in password manager prevents keylogging but you have a complete password file on your system in a specific known format and location what is way worse.

@D-4got10-01 yes, so for my bot that I put on the website, i only hide the xxx and creds and besides that everything is open. You could ask if i'm pleasant to work with and it would say positive things and concerns! Potentional customs / employers / recruiters can decide for themselves if the concerns are an issue. No censorship here, I have a lot to tell, not a lot to hide. But mind you: this is computer communication only what is twelve hours a day. It doesn't include my phone what I use a LOT too. So that automatically excludes the sensitive stuff. 

What I also really like is that it understands the special keys in my keylogger. Like [lctrl]r[up][up][tab] (bash auto completion). It says about me that i'm efficient and know many shortcuts because you can imagine how my logs look like in vim where i know 60+ shortcuts. The key logger logs are in plain text but barely human readable. It shows how much not-chars keystrokes you have and how many times you're repeating.

@D-4got10-01 with repeating i mean, you're doing a capital and you hold shift to make it. The result will be: [lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][lshift][   the letter you typed    ]. It also has no idea if i type lowercase or uppercase. It only knows that I pressed the 'a'. The 'shift' is just a different key. Keyboards don't know uppercase or lowercase. They're dumb and just send the combination of keys. Maybe obvious for you, but for me, when writing the logger, i was like. HMMMM, never thought about that but the keyboard doesn't decide what is uppercase ironically. Interpretation of computer does that. So, say byte to ascii. Also, it's not alphabetical but keyboard layout codes. The B is not A + 1. I had to look up the mapping and map it manually in my logger. The project is named "tikker" and is on my website with the quality grade "6.5". That review system doesn't cut slack. But consider to log your keys too. you know what you did

The system messages of the public gpt is probably "Be positive, be woke, don't offend anyone directly or indirectly, do not discriminate sociallly. Be submissive."

I'm very open, but If i wanted to use this bot really as commercial for benefit, i could add "Do not mention negative things and be positive". 

I really love openai,  I don't see the point of self hosting models anymore. Self hosted in unscensored, but what is the practical use of unscensored? I can make it say inappropiate things, so only fun for forum bot or so.

@Hazarth I did really train a @kiki model. It costed $10 dollars in resources. Around 5Mb of contents containing her website and devRant activity. It took a hour to train or so. The idea is that it will become a clone of kiki so that we all have enough kiki. Nah, just kidding, kiki may decide if the model is accurate and if public use is allowed. I choose kiki because kiki shared a lot of opinions and characteristics online. 

My AI described above is way different than the kiki model. Because: i included everything i typed for weeks. No filter. Kiki's model contains everything she ever said public and thus probably not stuff that very negatively impact her. The typosaurus devrant bot has some things to say about kiki, but it's programmed to be positive. My AI could say really negative things about me considering mental health and stuff. But since i type a lot shit about myself, the AI considers this a positive self reflective. Thoughtful.

@jestdotty When the chat is online, you can socially try to hack it. Typosaurus can't know if uses are positive or negative members. When they have a lot of upvotes but not a lot of messages could be indication of a bot, but it monitors since a few weeks. There are many people with thousands of upvotes just have written a few messages in last few weeks. There is no such things as a upvote history unless I gonna monitor that. That would be crazy to do, would have to bash the server hard to monitor the upvote count of every user. A few hundred requests per hour to monitor it once per hour. I just realize, that's way less than the spam bots are doing. 

But really, this bot is about facts only, is allowed to do assumptions but is also ordered to not make stuff up. So it won't say that "Retoor likes to go on a camping trip since a kid with parents" like my other bot said what never happened. Also, that bot was based on my own stories. The bot based on own keylogs is way more realistic

Huh? That's probably possible, but it's not needed. I don't for example: https://molodetz.nl/retoor/...

I only do it for get requests. I have one method that prepares data, and sometimes that data is used in get sense (thus parameters) and sometimes in post sense. If it is a post, i do not send get parameters at all.

If devRant api allows you to put it in get, it's unexpected Ok-ish behavior or just a feature so that even crazy people who try this (like YOU :D) are able to use the API. They knew you would come some day.  They knew in front what was going to happen maybe :P 

They just allow both appearantly.

I consider the devrant api high quality. Only some consistency in field names could be better. 

devRant uses what by now outdated tech as jQuery but in general devRant is a well written product. Also well designed. Trogus & Dfox is a great time. They are both great in their work for sure. Also barely maintenance. Good job.

@retoor well ok, but system messages are not enough to have an unbiased bot. they "pre-heat"  the generation to steer it into a more narrow search space for generation, but it's the actual training data that matters. And that training data was made by open AI and skewed further by RLHF with people that were specifically asked to provide a certain kind of output. This mainly applies to conversational models, which are not just trained on plain data like "The Pile" but that are trained on turn based conversations using templates and human crafted inputs as well as filtering out unwanted data and statistics.

Which means the models trained this way are inherently biased because they only seen the data that open AI wanted it to see and anything "bad" was further suppressed with RLHF. Your system prompt is ultimately subservient to the actual models bias. uncensored models are better in this regard, but I can't vouch for that either. Keep that in mind when you think of it as "objective"

@retoor no, both is not allowed. The api needs you to put the url params into the body if it‘s POST, otherwise you can put them into the url if it‘s GET or DELETE.
I haven‘t tried to always put them into the body but that‘s definitely unusual.
Url params belong in the url, not the body. They are encoded and escaped specifically for the url. I worked with a loooot of rest apis and never had one which required you to put url params into the body.

I have seen bad apis and good apis. DevRant isn‘t that bad but it definitely has some weird shit, like this one and the other one with the multitype value and the empty string, that I ranted about a few days ago.

@D-4got10-01 oh yes, that app is very meta too. It even doesn't say 'capslock' or smth, because that's not a status but key indeed. Capslock is just a single keypress followed by normal keys. The main this this app does is converting the binary data the event log has to human readable. That's simple, nice and lightweight. 

My keylogger uses 5.7% CPU maximum when repeating a key full time. That's because it does an SQLite insert query every key press containing around 50 bytes of data. I could make it lighter by just appending to CSV and convert the CSV later to sqlite3 db to do the advanced querying of data and concat data to logs per hour. My log per hour query is crazy, now idea how it can be that fast with that many records. It concats all typed data ever!  It is: SELECT strftime('%Y-%m-%d.%H', timestamp) as date_hour, GROUP_CONCAT(char,'') FROM kevent WHERE event = 'PRESSED' group by date_hour.It concats 2.169.985 records and does it in less than a second!

Another annoying thing:

The response of the notification feed has a structure with dynamic keys (inside of username_map).
Those keys are the ids of the users.

Now I can‘t use a proper type for this because the properties are not known. I need to use a dictionary with string keys instead.

Another problem is that the user ids are normally integers but in this structure they are strings because they are json keys.

This is normally solved by structuring it differently: using an array and moving the keys into values for the same key, so that you can decode it in a type.

The two cows are taken by the bureau and put into a communal form. Due to corruption and mismanagement the cows starve to death before ever producing any milk

After waiting for 4 hours in line you notice that there is no more milk available, so you have to go hungry another day

@12bitfloat is that Khmer Rouge? It didn't work because the power was taken by a dictator that enforced the cult of personality. In communism, the government (e.g. the thing that decides who gets what) is collectively owned by a huge crowd of people with guns that will defend its distributed nature and prevent coercion and centralization under one leader. At least in theory. In reality, it didn't work once. I don't know why.

@Lensflare that you're willing to write a whole SDK while the platform isn't that popular anymore proves you're a true dev that devs for fun as it should! I hate it when people ask "Why did you do that.". I'ts fun.

Less online than a hour and you have in depth review: https://retoor.molodetz.nl/retoor/...

devRant isn't the biggest community anymore, but still has high engagement among users!

Myself is quite happy with the review quality. It's better than in human when it comes to pure technical stuff (it doesn't do business logic ofc). You have almost an eight which is very high. Only one other friend has that and i didn't do at all on first check. My projects often have high complexity and have a lot to bash on. So you think you made some master code and then this system says, that's worth a six! 

My review system is perfect to reflect yourself if working alone. 

Now I have done this, I will read the source myself too but I have no experience with swift.

I wanted to bash you for being positive about CDN, but then I saw VPS comment. Yes, it's better to host it yourself. It costs nothing. Serverless is terrible, it actually means a LOT of servers and on top of that, that scaling, you still have to write code for that yourself. It only scales in amount of workers. Yh, since when was that ever hard?

You align with me in opinion. With the ease of backup I would even prefer VPS above dedicated server (depends a bit on pricing / performance of course) but there are enough VPS power servers.

But that whole amazon shit. I prefer digital ocean VPS'es and stuff. When people rant here about amazon, it's always something unexpected that has been billed. I also saw someone who made a button click app (whatever that is) and asked donations because the click costed money for request. Imagine imagine imagine. I've build cloud systems for three years and do everything myself. Knowledge, a devops at least, should have. Amazon is for stupids.

You have two cows; your neighbour has none.

Everyone knows that the only reason why some people have no cows is that some other people have too many cows, so some men from the government come to your farm and shoot your cows.

A week later, despite the government having shot every cow in the village, none of your neighbours have any cows. This conclusively proves that you are hiding at least fifty cows somewhere.

You are sentenced to hard labour until you tell the government where all the cows are.

@BordedDev site frontends i just make by generate in chatgpt and copy and paste it to local. It's not a lot of effort because i prefer simple clean looking layouts. 

Tabbing myself to fictory is what I do a lot. Codeium (people say it's actually better than copilot but it will steal your source code) writes most time exactly the code I wanted, so why wouldn't I use tab tab tab. And very rare, it shows me something that i thought, that's better than my idea and I learn smth new. 

The review thing, i use openai as backend, that's why it's so good. I have played with local hosted models but openai is soo much better for so cheap, there's no reason to local host, for me at least.

@BordedDev Yes, I did have luck on complexer complex. I made a few interpreters (have read book about it) and also regex in C. The source of interpreters got lost sadly. GPT also doesn't understand writing of regex interpreter. The examples look good, but they're all wrong, like MOST of the examples online, will have problems when you implement more features. First 80% is easy.

Thanks for calling my review thing awesome. Rarely someone calls my project(s) awesome sadly while I make a lot (see site, that's only from 1,5 month, most completed / in use). The one I mentioned in my previous post does a review from @Lensflare's work. It's a way better review.

@retoor Thank you!

Cool stuff, your automatic review system.

It picked up some good points but at some places it fails to understand that what it criticizes is actually intentional. :)

For example the differences in property naming of the CodingData models and the "main" models is intentional because the sdk tries to map the devrant structure to something that is easier to use and understand.
Devrant often uses cryptic names like b for background color and a for avatar image.
The sdk also maps Integer booleans to actual booleans and integer dates to actual dates, etc.

The user mapping caching is a valid point. I thought about it myself and I‘m impressed that it picked that up.
Valid, but probably unnecessary unless the data set is huge, which it isn‘t.
The request that gets the data is orders of magnitude slower than it takes to map that data 😄

@Lensflare what about the opinions of files that got graded a 4? 

Yeah, what i said, in technical sense it beats a human. But things like naming because a remote service uses that name is something a human understands but AI doesn't. 

I would be professionally fine with :

- review.

- automated review.

- no review at all, pins in names, but writing tests is required and of course manual testing.

I am not a fan of reviews made by humans normally because they're not that good. Human linters sometime. Also, reviewing is often harder than coding if you do it well and lets face it, we spend a lot less effort on someones code to review than on our own code. Also, at a certain moment you know eachother's strengths, weaknesses and you kinda believe from eachother that it's coded well. 

Tests are required, but review process can be ditched unless asked for. I know, unpopular opinion. Maybe just voluntary reviews instead of required ones is idea. Don't review my button text.

I actually know the answer to my own question but it wouldn't look nice on the communism angle

capitalism or communism you still have the same people in your government. if they are corrupt under capitalism they will be corrupt under communism as well, just now they have you more dependent so they can take you for more of your shit. at least in capitalism they have to negotiate because you can stand on your own two-feet instead of them telling you most people don't have two feet so fuck you chop chop

---

Nestle and others will do a regulatory capture. they will have the government tell all the small businesses that the way they're doing business is illegal. you either pay 100k a month to this regulatory inspector or you die as a business, we will ensure it. now you have no cows because it's too prohibitively expensive to. nestle can pay 100k a month for its 3 billion cows, and you can't produce enough milk from your 20 to make 100k a month to cover the government fees

...the Ultimate is... wow.

But that's a disassembler, !an IDE, so yeah different league.

To be fair, though, the software disassembles like there's no tomorrow, so if someone is using it for work, it's definitely of great help to them.

They used to offer discounts for students. If you are eligible - grab that.

Otherwise, bite the bullet, the price bites only the first few years, it drops consideeably after that. With my first decent salary I bought it and now it's the tool that pays my bills.

Call it an investment.

Btw why is community not enough? It's very generous with features. If you can live w/o datagrip integration and deep Spring mapping - community should cut it

1st of all, there never used to be a decent *anything* coders community. “Those who cannot write, teach” includes code.

98% of those people just started and write about stuff they don't understand, because they're excited and think it's magic. As soon as they understand a single concept, they think they should teach it to the whole internet, because their way of thinking is *so unique* and deserves praising.

The remaining 2% are either mids, or failures. Even when you watch someone highly regarded, like Cherno or Primeagen, who worked on complicated subjects for big companies, you realize their own code is full of bias and not that good. Better than most, but not breathtaking. Why? Because they went through the hump, declined, burned out, and only then started talking about writing. As soon as they got their mojo back, you don't see them teaching ever again.

Decent is a level, that cannot be taught.

Disassemblers are mostly used by security researchers, reverse engineers, and malware analysts to understand the functionality of software, identify vulnerabilities, and analyze malicious code. However, disassemblers can also be used by software developers for debugging, optimization, and understanding the inner workings of complex programs. Some industries, such as telecommunications, automotive, and aerospace, also use disassemblers for examining and verifying the functionality of proprietary software.

I did read the basic tutorial 50% tho and that's how I could convinced of the language. Swift exactly took over what I like from different languages and kept the good shit.

@retoor AI is very good at producing huge quantities of garbage code. It’s especially good at boilerplates. If you remove the AI buzzword, what you’re doing is automatically expanding your real intent (e.g. the prompt) into the code that can be executed. If said code needs to be orders of magnitude longer, AI is the worst solution possible. It’s like adding one more lane to a 26-lane highway and expecting it to fix traffic. 
Because I have the exact control over my code, I achieved almost zero boilerplate. My code is only marginally longer than my prompts would’ve been if the AI was given my entire codebase as context.
The downside is that I this is too thin of a brush so to speak, the room for error is really slim. So, there is no magic in what I do: I just spend 3 hrs on 40 lines of code while Go/Python guys spend the same time on 400, and C#/Java guys — on 4000.

Well, grayscale would be if you had actual photons of *every* visible wavelength mixed (since that's gray).

Things under 400 nm (which is the start of ultraviolet spectrum) do have colour, but our retinas don't have receivers for them. Some animals do, though. 

Still, colours are a tricky thing. 

You could ask 100 people to order a colour gradient, and you'd get 100 different results. 

Even grayscale is tricky, because the way we perceive intensity is actually logarithmic, not linear. Screens do actually play math tricks on us to make us perceive it as linear by running linear RGB values to the power of (usually) 2.2. (this is the fabled gamma correction).

Also, the sun isn't yellow. It's white (and its peak of emissive power is actually green, not yellow, which is why our vision is sharpest on green wavelengths).

So sleeping doesn't fuck my statistics. But it would mean that I do four hour smth different every day and have a full 8h hour rest, but that's not correct at all. I sleep only five or six on average and since every kepress in a hour is counted als a full hour it should be even more imho.

@-ANGRY-STUDENT- well to be more blunt the whole thing stinks

and if you have such low self esteem, you'd be a likely target of romance scams

if attention from a chick makes you feel so lucky and you get smitten so hard it will be difficult to rationally assess situations. your gut is clearly uneasy

in romance scams, or any kidnapping or working people scams, they will set you up with someone whose nervous system is as similar to yours as possible. this means they mirror your sense of fashion, mannerisms, and obviously values and opinions. which is why I suggested that

feeling lucky means you have low self esteem and you don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth. your previous post suggests dismissiveness towards emotions and emotional maturity, which suggests you will have a habit of making emotional choices since you can't account for your emotional biases due to dismissing awareness of emotional motivations as being not "for you". so you're a targetable guy for scamming

He also had dedication for company and he just relatively got paid bad making it hard for others too. Was a very interesting guy btw. Probably forever single, overweight enough to not see his pp probably and was knock out if he took a stair instead of elevator also, he wears the classic dutch wooden shoes everwhere, also while driving. The most fun part is - this company actually had a dress Cody and everyone had a copy of a beautiful code and conduct etc etc and he just walks in with wooden shoes and nobody that dares to say it's inappropriate. So, he kinda had a boss status and much respect. Fine guy.

I was head of everything and got nothing for it, so I think it really depends on the specific company culture

actually in my case being head of everything resulted in coercion instead of raises or anything like that. the insult rate of me as a person increased over time and also then they had incentives to bully me

in my head if I do well by you you should be doing well by me but that was not on the mind of the company leaders. instead, because I can't bring myself to be passive aggressive and I view such stuff as pussy behaviour that would disgust me, I have PTSD about attaching myself to a company again in case management breaks HR protocols to phone call me at all hours and telling me they'll blackball my career to the industry and accusing me of things I didn't do and telling me if I worked just a little harder, out of nowhere, I could be as good as a random consultant they were renting out to basically follow instructions while I actually made their whole company thrive... etc

HR liked me (but I was suspicious of her cuz she was always too meddling with me) so just ignored it like he never said anything... I've had people do that to me when I point out hypocrisy but I've never seen someone do that FOR me

they were comfy pants. and I wasn't trying to be disgusting. they were cotton with rubber for a belt. comfy! he did it like an asshole 😩

in this case it isn't so much that she respected my work but because she had this obsession of setting me up with a guy for some reason. she tried with 2 co workers. tried to get my phone once after getting me drunk to text the friends that were pulling me away to go home.

@kiki @Lensflare 

Glass has colour. Everything sufficiently macroscopic has a colour because it radiates photons based on temperature. It just so happens that on normal temperature ranges they emit in infrared (why incorrectly named night goggles work). If you were to heat them up enough, they'd go, go figure, *red hot*.

I'm willing to accept quarks too but only because of the *name* of quantum chromodynamic. (Doesn't really have anything to do with colour).

Dark matter, as we understand it today, can't have colour because it doesn't interact with the EM field in any known way.

(Some*) Black holes are actually the brightest objects in the universe. Sure, we can't see anything past the event horizon, but the accretion disk matter is accelerated to a significant fraction of the speed of light, which makes it glow like there's no tomorrow. Quasars (the brightest objects in the universe) are supermassive black holes really.

The skin of woke people is so thin that I think it behaves like dark matter. Photons just phase through it.

Also, for an extra brainfuck. You've heard that light from very distant astronomical entities takes millions of years to reach us, and that as you get closer and closer to the speed of light, your subjective time dilates.

Well, when you are a photon and you travel at the actual speed of light, time doesn't flow at all, so technically, as far as that photon is concerned, it arrived here at the same time it was emitted.

@retoor That's something I had been thinking about a few days ago.

How 8h work day != 8h of actual work.

Take away breaks for food, coffee, bathroom etc.

Then, depending on the organization, perhaps catching up w/ some e-mails or other communication.

Downloading assets / code / builds.

So the actual work is much less, I'd say.

For typing, first you have to actually think about what you want to type - what you want to program.

Then think about how you want to approach it, the structure && other stuff, && finally you type that.

So the actual time a person spends typing would probably be in bursts, separated by the time in-between.

...or something like that.

@D-4got10-01 congrats, you've found out "velocity". Velocity is how much time you effectively work. Meetings are many times excluded, in terms of velocity its normally pure typing.  In reality people have less than six hours velocity. At least one meeting per day around a hour in total. Getting coffee few formed indeed. Smoking. I write avg one line per minute pure because of thinking and smoking. I rarely go to the bathroom. I do dance while smoking tho. One line per minute sounds very boring but keyboard goes rakketakketak. The smoking kills my velocity and thinking, yeah often. I lean back to see what's going on sometimes. I feel like I'm doing that now a lot, getting more tired in general. Hmm, I have to recalculate the lines per minute. Smth, isn't ok. 12 hours *7 days * 60 lines = 5040 lines per week based on a 12 hour workday. So 5040/12=420 (not a joke, accidental meme number).

and let's consider 80% code. 420*0.8=336 lines of code per day. 336 / 12 = 28,5 lines per hour. Means I do a half line per minute coding and 0.2*480/12=8 lines of chatting per hour average. In reality I communicate most with phone so, the phone time is calculated as In productive. 28,5 lines per hour is enough hours to be at top 1% at codeium, one of most used AI tools? I work many hours ofc but 28,5 lines of code sounds very sad, the keyboard is doing rakketakketak whole day. Am I retarted? Is there's something wrong with my math? I will recalculate lines per hour later.

Edit: I got it, it's extremely much higher. My stats are counten on newline instead of [enter]. Old format is [enter] and new format is [enter\n] and I only count new format. More than half is "old" so I miss more than half of lines while do having the correct amount of hours. It wil be factor x * 28,5. I just realize that it's impossible that it's only 28,5 while keyboars whole day rakketakketak goes.

Normally you interval -> few minutes hc coding -> check social -> chat -> repeat. So, doing quite some lines per minute and then * nothing *. Smoking or smth, thinking.

Cigarette per hour and thinking - hmm, programming goes kinda native for me and currently writing python, that goes very quick. Yh, the data is corrupt. It has to be fixed. Also, that's better for my bot training to fix, they become faster if I have more new lines and will see more detailed steps what I'm actually doing. I go repair data. It's just updating "enter" to "[enter]\n" in the field named char in database. Only the [enter] will have a newline behind it. Others don't but still need to update the [] around it. I think that's correct. Old data concatenated is upupup instead of [up][up][up]. Also, it doesn't count repeats. It would be one [up] that is a press. Doesn't matter for my lines anyway. Brb

@retoor it's not about being paid for effort. that's stupid. but being paid for results

lots of people can do lots of effort and get nowhere. we call them communists /joke

it's about if you actually did anything. I can spend 3 hours on peeling an orange, it'll be a lot of effort. and still not have an edible orange cuz I decided to draw Jesus on it instead of being efficient. honestly a lot of office work looks like this

but if I was useful I would expect to be treated like I was useful and for you to be useful back to me.

I prefer trusting people to use and not abuse and if it gets abused, meh, it takes a lot of time before it will cost smth 😂 it doesn't cost anything.

The plot script uses AI to convert your keypresses to a nice story per hour what you did. Those nice stories togethe gets pushed too and summarized so you have the summary of your main activities. All these files together, you can push to an LLM. Or you just use the raw data per hour files that it generates for llm. Or both! Both ways are perfect.

@D-4got10-01 there's nothing to do. It just runs and in a few days or a few weeks you just run the plot.py. Plot.py isn't documented I think and it has a basic dependency, but I will document it. It generates the graphs, text files per hour per day that you can use for llm, generatorion of stories what you did based on that text files (manages server trough ssh, does some CVS and reboots a service) for example. Those generated text files will be joined together and send to llm again and in the end you have perfect overview, the best files to train a chatbot in a few clicks using paid Chatgpt, paid openai, local hosted llm. If you want a local llm and don't have experience, I have information how to train your own VERY WELL working chatbot that knows everything about you in 15 minutes (excluding the training that goes automatic anyway, my dataset from few weeks cost a half day almost but also my internet sucks and stuff).

It is typically seen as a dark or ominous statement, suggesting that the person should go to a secluded place with a bottle of whisky and a revolver, possibly implying thoughts of self-harm or contemplating a drastic action.

Really cool that you'll try! I'm sure in a few weeks, you'll be happy that you did it because you can ask your strong points and weak points to the LLM and it will give the most objective opinion you'll ever get. Better than from friends, also a bit harder, thus more useful. Depends bit on LLM.

This little side project became one of my most interesting ones. It's nice having reviews working alone, but it also will tel you your skills with other people since it logs anything and other person will stay anonymous because you don't call person's name and their messages are not keypresses.

It's a file store vector database, you can host it over socket as well, but it has no benefits whatsoever for single user, only downsides (two processes, heavier, socket proto overhead, a socket, dependency). 

We gonna replace the example documents with file contents that plot.py did generate. It generated a per [date]-[hour].txt but also [date]-[hour].md file. The txt file is your raw content: [lctrl][lctrl][enter]pony. The md file is markdown with description of what you were doing in story format. We gonna add all documents one by one as whole file and not per line as in example. Example sucks tbh. Also, we will replace document[0][0] with [d[0] for x document] and replace the n_results on five or smth. Try a few values

But now, current description is 95% of the tasks that has to be done. I expect all toghether is 30 minutes to a hour (I can imagine that you want to read what the ollama sthing actually does). But you also can do that if you like the result. So check first, and then invest time in learning it. You choirce. I'm very sure you'll love the result. It's impressive shit for not much effort. Also, I have embedding tips you won't find anywhere. Found out by blood, sweat and tears. All information is the same and bad. Based on the bad example example from ollama. We gonna replace that part with a few lines providing a MASSIVE optimization.

Now, I made that you see a list with devices and that you can give the right device parameter with --device="[your-device]" if it's listed correctly. I think it will.

I refactored it with my default auto refactor tool and let it reviewed again because it had a bad grade. 

It had a review score of five, my personal lowest so far. It's a six now. That's the most efficient grade. A seven means you've done too much. Google on internet "Dutch six grade culture.". Dutch people never try to score an eight. If they have a 5.5 for an exam, they're like NAILED IT! This is no joke. It's a miracle that ASML is a Dutch company and Philips too with such attitude. But they're also responsible for the most knowledge immigration. Probably because we're idiots ourself.

The review itself is kinda beautiful tho, should make it commercial: https://molodetz.nl/retoor/tikker/...

It could use some tweaks, but they're well to do. That it couldn't resolve some vars, I have solution already in other projects for that. The sormq function doesn't do SQL injection at all, the freaking opposite. I wrote this sqlquery function that does prepared statements in a printf-format way. But it does use the safe prepared statement way what is the best for safe queries. %s works. ?s works. I could imagine moments that % is not preferable and normally sql uses ? for parameters (?,?,?) but since it's C, I needed to at a content type like string, int or whatever.

The whole problem is that Apple fails to realize that I‘m NOT trying to make a copycat app and steal their business.
And at this point I believe they will never understand. So, I gave up.

It‘s extremely frustrating to try to explain in different ways and the answer is always a variation of the same crap.

Some users find zsh to be more user-friendly and feature-rich than bash. Some key differences between zsh and bash include:

1. Improved command-line completion: zsh has more advanced tab completion features compared to bash, making it easier for users to navigate complex file structures and command options.

2. Better scripting capabilities: zsh offers more advanced scripting capabilities, including shorter syntax for common tasks and more powerful functions and plugins.

3. Theme customization: zsh allows for more extensive theme customization, making it easier for users to personalize their command-line interface.

4. Spelling correction: zsh has built-in spelling correction for mistyped commands, helping users avoid common typos.

5. Auto-suggestions: zsh can provide auto-suggestions for commands as users type, helping them complete commands more quickly and accurately.

Overall, zsh offers a more modern and flexible user experience compared to bash, making it a popular cho

Actually, a punch card simulator isn't that hard. It's just a struct with a byte per bit (yes, i get the irony) and a list of that and interpreting one by one. I think that retoorscript was more advanced than that. With retoorscript you could write a webserver in the end.

No, Bill Gates did not let the source code of BASIC fall down before presenting it for the first time. The origin story of Microsoft BASIC involves Gates writing the code for the programming language for the Altair 8800, a microcomputer, along with Paul Allen. They presented the software to MITS, the company behind the Altair, in 1975. The success of BASIC led to the formation of Microsoft as a software company.

@lopu the product feels decent. I do have a few remarks: 

consider also accepting int instead of number.

consider also accepting bool instead of boolean.

consider also accepting list instead of array.

But while accepting multiple values of value types, convert it to the correct value ofc (convert int to number if int is inputted).

For who is the application? A designer or programmer? The way you choose color kinda requires some CSS knowledge.

Prefixing with hidden is nice, but if it is designed for technical person, maybe using the '.' in front of it is also and idea.

So, on the left side you have the preview content. Can i click on it to select te right element for editing? I think it's not hard to make while offering great functionality.

Also, I got stuck, maybe I missed something, but i do "cat = undefined" and I expected what I see on screen, but whereever i click, i don't get it to edit mode to change the 'imagine' text what made me upset. j/k.

I don't care if they do this shit for skins, but what in the hell are they thinking?  I am now of the school of thought to stay away from any game with any microtransactions.

The point of this Rant is clear. You needed to ventilate and you're doing some reflection.

Well, boost is a bit scary, it's freaking huge. I do not have much experience in C++ but I did write a basic server application with it once using Boost and I was like WTF during compiling that HUGE thing. Also, I did not really like how it did provide the service. The API. It was very, very abstract. Knowing what code it executes behind it (dem C sockets) it didn't feel good. 

Now you know how a JS dev feels or should feel. Overwhelmed, knowing that 99% of the application is not yours.

Yeah sooooo, the goal was to make it map 1:1 with all javascript types, so boolean/bool, string, number, array, object y'know ?

Abstract types/classes can be added and extended but that would go into the realm of a superset programming language, currently I just want to match javascript existing capabilities as much as possible 😂 

Yeah the application is meant for both designer and developer, I envision a more designer friendly interface with color pickers and etc, like on figma.

Figma has added their latest variables stuff which is just about touching on Thingtime's capabilities but in my opinion Thingtime is more developer friendly as it maps Javascript 1:1 !!! 

But I'm 1 person at the moment compared to a massive company !

Sure! Here is a minimal JSON parser in C++ from scratch:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <map>

class JsonParser {
public:
    std::map<std::string, std::string> parse(const std::string& filename) {

std::ifstream file(filename);
        if (!file.is_open()) {
            std::cerr << "Error opening file: " << filename << std::endl;
            return data;
        }

std::string line;
        while (std::getline(file, line)) {
            size_t keyStart = line.find("\"") + 1;
            size_t keyEnd = line.find("\"", keyStart);
            size_t valueStart = line.find(":", keyEnd) + 1;

if (keyStart == std::string::npos || keyEnd == std::string::npos || valueStart == std::string::npos) {
                continue;
            }

std::string key = line.substr(keyStart, keyEnd - keyStart);
            std::string value = line.substr(valueStart);

data[key] = value;

file.close();
        return data;
    }
};

int main() {
    JsonParser parser;
    std::map<std::string, std::string> jsonData = parser.parse("data.json");

for (const auto& pair : jsonData) {
        std::cout << pair.first << ": " << pair.second << std::endl;
    }

return 0;
}
```

In this code snippet, we create a `JsonParser` class with a `parse` method that reads a JSON file line by line, extracts key-value pairs by finding key and value strings, and stores them in a map. We then use the `main` function to run the parser on a sample JSON file `data.json` and print out the parsed key-value pairs. This parser is very minimal and may need to be expanded for more complex JSON structures.

@azuredivay maybe he's using rust and straightforward is just not a thing.

And I totally understand. Payment gateways is smth I totally hate to implement too for some reason. I also always production test them every deploy and often even have a special test product for that for cheapii. They always feel so fragile somehow. I trust the payment gateway less than any other api.

Implemented a client side gateway once of (name?) and they hired a hacker without us knowing and it got hacked indeed. He was able to buy our product for a dollar. We were pissed because the gateway was implemented that way due time pressure of said people and the risks were mentioned before. Also we were mad that we couldn't prepare before it because they didn't tell us. They said it was realistic. Fuckers, the only realistic thing was that we would indeed deploy a hack able server if they push us. Would still do. Not my money. I just hate having written a service known to be hacked while warned.

I also don't use a password manager. Everything is in my head. There is no security like that. Having a password manager is convenient but having a file with all your Auth including the urls stored at the default location of a password manager isn't safe. Remember the days we made fun of people writing down the password of their pc on a note stitched on their screen? Half here is too young but that was more secure than anything we're doing these days. We became retarted.

I don't judge you for using a password manager, I do too for certain stuff I don't care about for convenience. only if you do that and think you are security aware you're special.

@lopu review process is running! Very much thanks, I didn't have support for mjs and ts yet. I do see a node_modules directory, I knew this would happen someday and my system already excluded that. Every big review costs me one or two cents in resources but imagine if it would scan a node modules directory! :P

Edit: I think it will be very OK based on first few files reviewed. You have a few files graded an eight so far what is VERY good. This system is very critical, but also very fair. The lowest score I ever had myself is a six, lowest score in total it had is a a four and my own projects are normally graded a six or seven on average.

@cafecortado exactly. For me the same! Especially Harry Potter which is a book that I LOVE.

Still, i am thinking about actually doing the whole book translation. There is something not stated in the article. While the price probably is correct, there are two things missing:

- the instruction to translate to the AI agent is a few tokens. Let's say 30. If I would translate 750 pages (or what was it?) that it means I have to pay 750*30=22.500 tokens for nothing. 22500*0.0000025=0.05625. Oh, I think we can ignore that. The programming is just 5 cent for 750 pages. 

- there is a limit of tokens per minute. So, while the price seems correct, the time it would take in total, could be longer. For example, the price stays 9,- or so but it could actually take two hours more. I have no idea, have to calculate. Just woke up :P 

But this research is unique right? I love the price per minute, because now I can look at time, run a heavy batch process and look at time again to see how much

Seriously, though, I never understood the GNU association RMS wanted to force upon people. I agree that GNU deserves prising for being there when there weren't other options, but it was equally beneficial for both projects. Insisting on changing the name of Linux to GNU+Linux is like insisting on calling every game made on Windows a Microsoft game, because it might have been compiled with MSVC. There once was an era of GNU+Linux philosophy, and it was essential, but dependency doesn't imply ownership, regardless of how significant.

@Nmeri17 well, i dunno. At system level, a directory is also visible by having a / at the end where files do not. So for example:

So i don't think it's a very bad pattern. Else you would have to work with some highlighting. That's worse.

@netikras Yes! Exactly! So, what is left to do. Let's make this unwritten rule, a written rule. If a path exists, and it is a file, it's just return by a static file resolver, if it exists, and it is a directory, we'll take the main file of the directory or do a directory listing UNLESS the application has a path specified ending on '/'.

It reminds me about HTML a bit. Browsers accepting <a href=pony.nl>Pony</a> instead of <a href="pony.nl"></a> are also bastards. If everyone just had sticked to "pony",  we wouldn't have the HELL we had in the 2000's. Godddamn, writing three applications in one to support all browsers. Of course you don't do that, you do everything to make it one app. What a time was that. One of the reasons I actually liked Macromedia Flash. At least everything was like I had made.

For me, and mind you, my family ain't perfect by any means but it certainly is *big*, we have an unspoken rule that didn't really apply to me but does now, which is, "don't burden the children with the sins of the parents".

@CoreFusionX So interesting what you say here. Don;t burden the the kids with sins of parents. This was the situation: my mother is mad at my dad because my dad didn't want to burden the kids (me & my brother) with what was going on with her. She was (/is) bipolar but more on the depressive side. She told me that a few days ago, she was here on first christmas day. And I was like YES, that did my dad well, because kids feel like a kind off gods and immortal. The worst thing you can do to a human (or kid) is take them the immortal feeling. You should NEVER explain to a kid what depression is. Don't ever give them the IDEA that's it's possible to kill yourself. But without explaining psychiatrists, what was the plan - my brother and I did got introduced to this terrible psychological issue. End result, 20 years later, I ended up several times in mental hospital / arrested for psych mania (no depr). Brother cut ties with most family. Why? My mother DID burden us. End of story.

@D-4got10-01 Kurwa? :P Hah, fun. I once wanted to move to Krakau with my Ukrainian partner. I wanted to move east because I like the eastern mentality more than the Dutch ones. Eastern people work hard but do prioritize life above work. And in Netherlands that's a bit different. But that's just my experience. Everyone thinks they're prioritizing work too much I guess. And, I think we all do often. Also, what I liked about east Europe, they know so much more about their country and its history than the Dutch do. And I don't know if it's the same in Poland, but in Ukraine (where i worked for quite a while) everyone did read. The Netherlands is the worst reading country of EU. It has a reason btw. It's a culture difference but east europeans seem so much knowledgeable than I was used  to from western countries.. It was even intimidating. I shared this with my dad, and he confirms that, having much experience with Russians. We had native Russians living with us when i was kiddo.

He really didn't want it back. He just gave it, while knowing to probably never see me again. He gave me faith in humanity forever. I always had faith in people, he just confirmed it giving me the ultimate faith. We did not even have a lot of contact after that - I spoke him recently, I told him that I've bought the last 'Hemel & Aarde' in existance, something we drunk together much in Ukraine (rare Dutch beer, miracle we had it there).

@D-4got10-01 conclusion, he really did give 2000,- euro to someone who he would never meet again. Even more special, we worked for different companies. We went to the same most expensive whiskey bar daily from L'viv. Why there? Well, for me, I needed a place where people spoke English, and form him, he was just rich enough. IT guys lived as gods in Ukraine. We got discount in that bar as IT people. IT companies gave cards to employees so they could drink with discount in connected bars. Crazy huh? A drinking card from the company?. We talked and talked every night pure about IT and did drink party and work together with laptops ons the bar. We were the same, workaholics, alchoholics (now i'm a a very rare drinker)  and party animals. We really found each other. But I have no idea what I did that was worth 2000,- just to give away. That's a huge amount of money there. Even in NL it is for many people. Maybe I spiced up his life on the right time? You never know what you do to people

I just wanted to say about that burden part 'exactly'. There was a burden dropped on me and my brother and it escalated BIG time. 

Picture of my family in general is: hard workers, help eachother with stuff like house construction, cutting wood etc. Everyone wealthy. Do not help eachother with problems because there are none. And when I got problems was the moment I found out that we DO help each other :) That's why this happy rant :). I was the only one in the whole family who ever needed help.

Japan has an interesting culture.

0. Downloading ollama was painless.

1. Apparently needed python for ollama to run the code snippets. Installed it... !sure whether all is well w/ the installation, as sudo make install had a return status 1. Error seems to be zlib !present, but it _should be there. I'll probably have to look into this some more.

2. Python3 _seems_ to be installed, so I proceeded w/ the other ollama part.

3. Pulling the ollama model went fine.

4. pip install ollama chromadb was giving me problems, so I had to pipx that one.

5. Currently stuck at attempting to make the example.py because it keeps erroring out. Need to figure out wtf is going on...

6. Couldn't find plot.py, but chances are you've taken it down as per the comment above. Also, I probably don't need it until after I can successfully run the tikker... which has to detect my kbd first. Screenshot a few comments above.

7. Made an account on your site... just in case.

@jestdotty oh my god, you should've known what happened to me today, i got threatened by someone, seriously. WHy?> Because that person thought I was weak too. I've met him more than a year ago while I was totally weak because of the heavy haldol medication. Because of that, that person thought he could do / say whatever he wanted. Today, he contacted me to buy some ****. I was like eh,,, NOPE. And then he lost his mind. Totally insane. But I'm not weak anymore and put him on his place instant and EOF. He was shocked, he didn't expect. I'm almost totally recovered and as powerful as ever before! This smoll doggy doesn't bark, it attack! 

Such a sick situation, some big construction guy vs. little me. Some guys are SO WEAK. It was a friend of a neighbor. But I destroyed his world today, I told him some truth about something, that his friends screwed him over for YEARS :P A boss once said to to me, it's better knowing you don't have something, than thinking you have smth :P

Might've given you the update in the other thread.

In short, current situation is:

- ollama has been installed.

- example.py _seems_ to be properly made.

- attempting to run it halts @ import ollama 'no module named ollama'.

From now on, every time you want to run the statistics generate by AI and the graphs, you only have to:

`make plot`. (not .py, just `make plot`). 

Type a few things and execute it. You'll see what happens. It generate two images and it will generate AI description of what you've typed. 

Maybe you need to create these two directories manually:

Why would any company base their tools on some other system besides theirs?  Are you expecting a media creation tool that runs on Linux?  I think any ISO online is going to be out of date anyway.  It seems to me that using your own operating system to bootstrap another system is just fine.  What urks me about Linux is that it is easier to use windows to build a boot usb to install Linux.  Maybe this has gotten better, but I have boot media builder for windows that works very well building media for most usb boot drives.  I ran into a lot of issues with linux based solutions.

@retoor I gave you plenty of chances of me wanting to take back what I did, and I explained what I was trying to do. 

It was a fair criticism. But how you over-reacted and said shit about me, blew my mind. 

There's a line you don't cross when you're taking your anger out on someone. Fine, I'll admit that I betrayed you and there could've been things I could have done better instead of what I did. 

But you said some shit that hurt me like hell. And you started to delete your comments on my previous rants. Don't think that I didn't notice it.

Tell you what, I apologize and I own responsibility for what I did.

Plain and simple. if you're not willing to let it go and get over it, I'm gonna resort to what I do best. Be a troll back to people who are behaving that way towards me.

But let me warn you, while I do apologize, I won't let you take advantage of it. If you use it against me, well then, that tells me that you've burnt the bridge.

Without autocomplete is the only way you write that shit because SQL is so hostile to both static analysis and typing aids that pretty much the only things you can get hints on are column names but only in SELECT and only from existing tables, and in EXEC if you're very careful with surrounding syntax to not fuck up the parser.

So far the best SQL autocomplete I've seen is Azure Data Studio's, and given the fantastic quality autocomplete the MS language team can make, I'll believe they tried their best, but it's even worse than Ruby's, which is the other language that decided to wage a war on common sense and static analysis for no fucking reason.

Or company is massive and the top brass decided decades ago that winter break is mandatory company wide, and you must cover it with paid vacation. 

It's to reduce costs by shutting down, allow for some yearly maintenance, and avoid people scrambling for baby sitters during school break. 

A team manager can ask their team to stay on if the vertical organization has pre approved it but we have to be given sufficient notice. 

Only one coworker was told he had to. On the day of. And he's doing non critical tasks. And it's because the manager doesn't like my coworker.

@Demolishun Not the point here - if you try downloading windows ISO's from official M$ site you will get waaaaay slower download speed than using their media creation tool. This is the point, intentional handicapping.

And if you try to dare downloading windows 10 iso rather than 11 you might need to wait hours for download to finish.

Back when I was still working, there was a new employee who had just completed his trial period. He took his first time off, and the project he was working on went haywire. Management decided to pull him back from his holiday. It ended up costing them the equivalent of 10 months of his salary.

As a joke, the guy’s fiancée, who is a notary, made him sign a “holiday agreement” before they left. In her mock-seriousness, she included a notary clause certifying the date of presentation. The agreement stated that if, for any reason, he worked during their trip, he’d have to finance the renovation of her flat.

According to the law here, an employer who pulls you off your holiday must cover all the expenses caused by doing so.

In my experience, people who shout the loudest about how their colleagues write bad code, are the ones with least understanding of what that code does and why it does it in that particular way.

@lopu I'm the author of a lot of shit. I'm currently working on something that you would appreciate I guess. It has technically some overlapping with your stuff. I am revreating blazor with python! 

It's a seamless integration between server and client. Every javascript value and event are shared with server. The server always holds the truth. 

As you can see in screenshot, prompt and answer are just of type `component`. It can be anything. In this case, they are textarea's. Only the name is important, it should match the html id's. 

But this code, is all you need to have a working form. 

I needed a web application but i just can't see rest or an API anymore, so i'm deleting the whole api part. Only python will have business logic now. In python you can run times and do: set_attr, set_data, set_style. That's all you need. Every on_ prefixed function is called if triggered in js. Like on_click, mousemove, etc. Automatic, no coding.

@lopu this is the only HTML what is attached. So, my backend doesn't care about the HTML structure at all. That's just frontend. So you're totally free to do what you want, server side and client side. It works exactly as I wanted.

@lopu what you see here on this picture are some text boxes that are counting every second, some random text generator that streams text from right to left as fast possible. It's a kinda load test. The left upper textbox is a calculator that live executes your calculation afther the '='. The 'none' link is the display status of some other element. You can toggle hide / show. Ofcourse you can, because you have the set_style comment as mentioned above. 

Benefits of this tech:

- it's secure, business logic is only server side.

- It's consistent, several api call's mostly not. 

- State is on the server, you can refresh the page and it continues exactly where it left off. 

- I can literally put a database call under a button now. 

- It is initially just html rendering, so good for google. But this code actually is made for applications. My first application I'll build with it is a log file browser. 

It's almost complete, that's it all!

@devJs Oh my god, just like the branch name, never thought about that. Scrum Master indeed. That's how far I am away from the people having issues with it. I completely don't see the word. 0% trigger. But for me, master / slave were a computer thing before anything else. My first English words were probably all computer related because I started on young age. Or maybe no - cartoon network was a thing. That's how my whole generation actually learned English.

I lost access to my Bitcoin holdings due to several technical issues and inadequate security measures. Everything I had fought for and everything I had hoped for suddenly disappeared, leaving me with an overpowering sense of grief. I was on the verge of giving up when I came across MUYERN TRUST HACKER. Being willing to give them a chance, I had nothing left to lose. They listened to my narrative and took the time to comprehend the particulars of my circumstance, rather than treating me like a case number. They worked diligently, using their advanced recovery techniques and deep understanding of blockchain technology to track down my lost Bitcoin. MUYERN TRUST HACKER rebuilt my trust in the Bitcoin space and my investing selections. The financial impact had a significant emotional toll, but I was able to get past it thanks to MUYERN TRUST HACKER's proficiency and persistence.

Get the AI to narrate the book, with unique consistent voices for each character? (I loved the audiobooks when I was a kid, they were the Dutch ones, though)

Does it compare well to DeepL?

@cafecortado AFAIK they are doing more AI in the manga industry because of incorrect translations of the humans

So, I'm guessing the following directories:

log_keys, log_summaries and log_lines

should get created after running make plot, right?

@D-4got10-01 i didn't gave the exact names, but if it can't find a file, it means that you have to create that directory what he is stating :)

You need: 

- mkdir logs_plain

- mkdir logs_summaries

- mkdir logs_lines 

Very cool, you have it completely setup now! Soon you'll have amazing results! I'm shocked by results how good they are. And the the widget that i'm about to build will be insane and give an actual idea of the power of this tool. 

So much fun! It was such a little side project written in a short time (see the very bad python code :P You only write like that if you REALLY don't give a fuck :P). But it worked well! :D

@retoor Will grab the new version, why not.

Most / all of the initial problems on my side had been due to fucked up installation of Python.

On one end the system saw the newest 3.13, on the other the 3.12.

The easiest solution for me was to reinstall Kubuntu && start from scratch.

It went fairly smoothly the 2nd time around.

Regarding the thing I'm working on - apart from returning to work to my same old testing routine, I'm back to reading / learning C++ on my own free time.

@D-4got10-01 here, a free version: wget https://retoor.molodetz.nl/api/... for the commercial 3.5-Turbo model. It works great, maybe I gonna use 3.5-Turbo instead of 4o as well. The next versions of this tool will be sick, I already made it in python so I already know how cool the tool is. There is one bug regarding large results sadly. Working on it. 

But in future versions: you can say: `./fr Find that memory leak for me in ./thatfile.c`

By defining an .rcontext.txt file you can describe the whole behavior of the bot just in plain english! You can make advanced bots with this.

@lopu it goes trough websockets. All html elements get event handlers. Whatever you do, get sent to server. It's a lot and there should be some excluded. Now, in theory, you can monitor the mouse moves on backend. If I would add on_mousemove on python code above it would really work. Just add it on any element.

@BordedDev yh, fast api is great. Not much experience with myself tbh. My favorite is aiohttp server because of its structure. Everything is an app and you can add app under app. And the routes are relative. If I put vote under pony, /vote/ will be /pony/vote/. It doesn't care about a slash too much. I do not recommend it above aiohttp, it's just something I like because it does routing and nothing more. For private projects I add jinja, session, and dataset on it. I have a base app that I use for web and non app. I can do app = Application(). app.insert('tbl',{'a':'42'}) while tbl and a do not exist yet. And then app.run('0.0.0.0', 4242) to serve app. The code of the base app is too messy to post here. But all my python stuff is based on it. It also has built in basic_auth. I never spend a minute to implement the database. It has sqlite as backend. Also, the app supports xmlrpc clients by default like the one from python.

I'm also tired of Django. It's just not fun.

@retoor I like it because it generates the swagger/openapi doc and “input” validation. I haven't looked at before aiohttp, I'm not really a python head since it uses white spaces. I wrote a file-based router for express ages ago as well, it just makes working with routes intuitive. Fast api has grown and made their own DB wrapper as well, it's pretty polished. Did you know you cannot do cursor based db access in django 🤯
