Finally, list of followed hashtags are more visible. I endorsed it, since I think it has a potential to bring more attention to tags, thus making them more useful

Everything comes down to proper function naming. If it wasn't clear what function should return, then it was not named properly.

That hits me like something a teacher tells you in a coding class that turns out to be nonsense when you get to the real world.

In a company I work in, we have "no comments policy" for at least ~10 years now and we are not planning to change that. It's not just theory, we work like this in practice and purpose of each part of code is perfectly understandable just from variable names, file names, namespaces, function names.

The biggest problem with comments is that they can become outdated. If you change code but forget to change comment you introduce very dangerous situation where they become not only not useful, but also misleading.

If you rely on variable names, you've got a single source of truth, one thing to change at a time. Information updates itself.

To that end the company is developing a "Pay Per Crawl" system, which would give content creators the option to request payment from AI companies for utilising their original content.

So Cloudflare is not as much "saving the Internet", as just becoming a middleman between LLM training companies and content creators. Which I believe has a potential of being a true goldmine in the future.

I support this request, even issue on GitHub does not contain any (even short) description

ofc I could even send raw api requests, but sometimes it's good to have a nice GUI that "just works".

Specifically I'm looking for something that could handle not only text responses, but also attachments, speech recognition and MCP support.

Taking advantage of the fact that this thread became popular, question to all of you guys: do you recommend some other open source LLM front ends?

As long as they are free and open source, I don't care.

+1, I came here just to paste a link to it

Using Lemmy as a blog is an interesting idea, because it allows to distribute your posts to other users timelines easily, but does it do well in terms of cost of self hosting? How much more computational work does enabling federation require?

Honestly, I thought Meta talking about Fediverse integration was just marketing bullshit. Are they really doing it? 🤔

For start definitely Linux Mint. It is stable, has strong support, works out of the box.

I'm ok with auto generated content, but only if it is clearly separated from human generated content, can be disabled at any time and writing main articles with AI is forbidden

Wikipedia is not made to teach people how to read, it is meant to share knowledge. For me, they could even make Wikipedia version with hieroglyphics if that would make understanding content easier

I love being in EU

I mean: it is a writing error, because you can't compare "class based" to OOP, since they are just different things, but this is what is suspect was the case ;)

Object oriented languages can be either class based or prototype based. Java is class based, JS was back then prototype based

This clearly shows how chaotic development of javascript really was.

It has always been like:

1. Design a language for small browser scripts
2. People suddenly start using it somewhere else
3. It turns out it does not fit to where people try to use it
4. Hundreds of frameworks appear to fix this, milion standards appear, people fight for years to work out a single go-to solution
5. Return to point 2

So the current situation in Windows ecosystem is that application developers spend time working on protecting users against their own operating system
