It appears that me and creator have had vastly different experiences with LLMs and their capabilities with complex code bases and complicated business logic.

My observations point to LLMs being much more successful when variables and methods have explicit, detailed names, it's the best way to keep them on track and minimize the chance of confusion, next closest thing being explicit comments and inline documentation.

Poorly named and poorly documented things in a codebase only cause it to reason more on what it could be, often reaching a (wrong) conclusion, wasting tokens, wasting time.

Perhaps this diversion in philosophy is due to fundamental differences in how we view the tool at hand.

I do not trust the machine, as such I review it's output, and if the variables lacked names, that would be significantly harder. But if I had a "Jesus, take the wheel!" attitude, perhaps I'd care far less.

1. Bulgaria has been a member state since January 1st 2007. Many here feel like us being accepted into Schengen area took longer it should despite the clear benefits of our black sea ports.

2. The adoption of the Euro was a long planned thing, delayed to ensure the country can have a smooth transition, while there's a Russo-phile movement in the country, there was never a majority negative sentiment, it's believed to be Russian disinformation that made it look like that.

3. Bulgaria is not purely a leech in the EU, while it's a beneficiary of financial aid from various EU initiatives, that's offset heavily by the constant source cheap, highly skilled labor and education. Some common examples are/were Nurses and Doctors often go west to fill gaps in other member state, notably in UK before Brexit. Construction laborers working in Germany. And an incredible amount of software engineering being outsourced to here from all over the world, especially richer members states.

4. Bulgaria has a huge Queer community, and while it's true, the current government leaned more conservative in the bad sense, we did also protest them out of government. While the country is dealing with and healing from decades of past Russian influence, the youth are organizing Queer Bazaars and Palestinian Solidarity Charity Punk concerts, both, I can attest were very nice.

My advice is to not form your opinions purely by what news sources that reach you, because in the modern world, everyone has an agenda. Before talking about a country you have no personal, long term experience with, try to do basic research using the "country + keywords" query and dig deep. The news that seem to reach people these days seem to constantly confirm their biases, and having seen the comparison to Hungary, a country under possible dictatorship, vs. Bulgaria, a country that just protested it's Parliament out, feels very odd.

I am a long time CS player, but I did briefly play one of the new CoD games, before they went crazy with Nicki Minaj skins and bong-guns.

A person was so convinced I was cheating, they started doing OSINT on me while still in a match, and they found my old UnKnOwNcHeAtS account as some kind of proof that I am cheating (that account was 12 years old by that point).

I abhor cheating, and I have a lot of interest in computer science, so of course I wanted to see how all of it works and did my research during my youth, taking care to never compromise the competitive integrity of the games I played, but if you look around, there is not a single game that I can recommend to people anymore.

Games like Escape From Tarkov are so busted, cheaters are stealing the barrels off people's guns and crashing their game/PC on command.

My beloved counter-strike's premier competitive game mode has a global leaderboard that acts as a cheat advertisement section within the game.

Games like Valorant are a cut above the rest on account of their massively invasive anti-cheat, but are nowhere near as clean as most fans claim, I mean, you could write a cheat for the game using nothing but AHK and reading the color of a pixel.

There is a whole industry of private matchmaking for counter-strike, built solely on the back of their anti-cheat and promises of pro-level play to the top players.

EDIT: I found the screenshot, it was MPGH not UnknownCheats, but yeah, they also had a game ban on their account.

And if you need a 3d graph, you're only a handful of lines away from smoothing out your presentation, so why not?

There's also the more subjective aspect, I think adding the effort to make something look nice and slick, animated well, could be both an interesting challenge and a relaxing pass-time. It's pleasing both to make and digest, in a way, it sits in an intersection of design, art and technique and as an added bonus, could help capture the attention of someone who struggles with short attention spans even better!

I made sure I don't collect any data except the URLs that come in, for debugging purposes, so that if I see too many failures I can fix whatever the issues is and attached an inbox so people can reach me.

I've seen some really disturbing stuff in the logs, you can tell from the URL alone, zoophilia, murder and executions, rape, but that's all stuff you can find on the internet.

I stopped looking at the logs long time ago, but I vowed that if I ever get a whiff of underage sexual content going trough the site, I will take it down and use it only in private.

Ow, I also get emails from horny people who really want to download specific porn videos from unsupported websites.

I built SASRip [2] and MediaReaper [3] to download media from the internet to better share with my friends.

I also have a myriad of small tools and scripts to automate most of my work, whatever that work is. I've done many different jobs and I've automated a thing or two in all of them. ----

Now, your ingest server needs to map each perspective on to a 4K canvas and upload that stream somewhere, let's assume a 5 Mbit 2160p60 stream this is what you get:

Clients 2.5 x 4 = 10 Mbps upload.

IServer 10 Mbps download.

IServer 5 Mbps upload.

EDIT: Twitch caps @ 6 Mbps for streaming so it doesn't matter if 5 Mbps is enough or not, 6 is max for Twitch.

I love sharing resources such as these with them.

Thank you for sharing.

The idea that there are things my brain is capable of, but needs a kick-start to do them just tickles my curiosity bone.

Perhaps one day, after I retire and if it's legal, I might try it.

Life has become so expensive for most people that were it not for cheap, low quality food and goods, most people wouldn't be able to make two ends of the month meet.

I often think about what I can do to live a better, healthier and more sustainable life, but other than minor changes to my diet, I can't do much.

I can't afford a car or a license, so I can't afford to live outside the city, have my own garden like my grandparents do.

I can't afford my own house or apartment so I can't really invest in more efficient cooling/heating solutions and install solar, etc.

I can't even bring myself to recycle anymore, because the garbage containers are right across the street from my window and the truck just grabs and dumps them all in the same place, making the active thought process of being mindful to recycle a pointless endeavour.

In fact, as I am writing this, I just watched it happen again.

Anyone else have a good example of Neera in action?

At first, having only seen the title, I thought that the loggers were out there with their phones and perhaps the responsible authorities had set up their own 3G/4G/5G towers to get alerted and/or triangulate their location.

I see way too many simple but cool concepts bogged down by an epic written collectively by the marketing dept. muddying the true concept of things.

    We re-use wood-waste to 3D print objects.

I don't use online music services, I discover music on various platforms and and download mp3s and keep a local library.

I avoid Youtube at it's defaults, I use 3rd party apps and VLC to do most of my watching, other than my subscriptions I tend to skim the Home page very rarely.

I do not use Netflix or other streaming services, I try to hunt down DVDs/Blu-Rays and prefer ripping them for my personal library.

My only problem is exclusives, as a fan of The Witcher series, I do feel like I am missing out, but if I feel a really strong urge I can always borrow an account from a friend, create a temp profile, watch the series and delete it.

Their convenience features just add more inconvenience to me.

I've also tried online font recognition services for the most part, they all try to match it to some paid font on some website that likely sponsors the service, even something as simple as Arial is recognized as $200 fonts, I get that they look alike but I find it bizarre how all the sites I've tried over the years always push a few dozen paid fonts in my face rather than tell me what the font's name is.

I had to with a live stream instead of peeking out of my window...

I don't think it's moral but I don't think it's entirely immoral either, it's in the grey zone for sure.

But what I don't understand is the whole fake vaccine cards thing, it's free and far more accessible to that person than it is in rest of the world and yet...

I feel like most of these absurd password policies have an underlying issue that's not immediately obvious to us.

I feel like Apple's long con is selling iPhone user data themselves instead.
