I have never seen a clearer divide and correlation between the value I observe being produced, and those that don't understand the limitations and value of LLMs.
It's exhausting, because, yes, LLMs are extremely valuables, but only as so far as to solve the problem of "possible suggestions", and never as "answers and facts". For some reason, and I suppose it's the same as for why bullshit is a thing, people conflate the two. And, not just any "people" either, but IT developers and IT product managers, all the way up. The ones that have every reason to know better, are the ones that seem to be utterly clueless as to what problems it solves well, what is irresponsible for it do be used for, correctly evaluating ethics, privacy and security, etc. Sometimes I feel like I'm in a mad house or just haven't found the same hallucinogenic that everyone else is on.
I had mixed feelings about the whole Ondsel thing. And, please correct me if I'm wrong.
Most of the significant features in 1.0, that supposedly came from Ondsel, are things that I've been using for perhaps 3 years now, with a fairly well known branch of FreeCAD called Linkstage3 by a user that goes by RealThunder.
I don't know how much he was involved in Ondsel, or the merging of those features into FreeCAD, but it sure looked like a whole lot of great work wasn't credited to mind boggling amount of work by one person.
I still use the Linkstage3 branch, because it has a lot more features still, than what was present in the 1.0 pre-release i tried some months ago. Maybe things have changed since then.
I see. That's not what "security by obscurity" means in my world, but the expression certainly sounds like it could. It's not like I own the meaning of words, so it's interesting to hear what it means to others. Could also have been meant figuratively, I suppose.
Hadn't heard of it before. Searched for it, and came across both Path of Diablo, and Project diablo. Some polls suggested preferring the latter 2:1. I haven't played D2 in a few decades (sheesh). Any thoughts on comparing those mods?
I'd agree, if it wasn't for you having an obligation as a voting citizen to be somewhat informed of your decision. Anyone who votes for Trump has either failed to meet that basic requirement, or they're a shitty person. The latter is actually fine, the former is not.
