HW/FW security researcher & Demoscene elder.

I started having arguments online back on Fidonet and Usenet. I’m too tired to care now.

  • Lemmy and Mbin are roughly the same thing - “Reddit”

    Mastodon is “Twitter”

    … and there are more, with Loops being “TikTok” and Pixelfed being “Instagram”.

    They can all see the same content, but presented in ways that emphasize their unique aspects. That’s what people call “Fediverse” but it’s much simpler to just think of them as separate apps and ignore that technically true but confusing aspect.

    It’s similar to being an assembler coder when higher level languages with compilers came. No need for management purging, you’ll simply be competing for a smaller segment of assigments.

    I don’t know of a single developer that has actually used LLM aids say there’s no benefit to them. Those that refuse do so for some other convictions and don’t really know the difference between LLM aiding in tasks and full on yolo vibe coding.



  • I have since many years back documented most tasks in a digital note taker app. Over the years I’ve transferred them between systems, right now they’re in Nextcloud.

    I also have configured a local AI on the server and since Nextcloud has built in support for using local AI it has now indexed all my notes so I can pose queries to a local AI that has all that info I’ve ever written down backing it.

    “When is it time to re-apply for the garage building permit” and “Which one of our kids was the tallest at birth” are examples of questions I can now do.

    You’re just used to seeing troll factory inflamed opinions on other platforms. On ad-supported social media moderators don’t ban the trolls because “user number go up!”. On the fediverse each user is a cost so when we find bad actors we simply eject them promptly.
