The majority of my gaming is on the road too but I’ve found the Steam Deck hits that niche for me. I carry a thin Chromebook for work related things. Admittedly you don’t need as powerful a GPU for a small 720p display.


How big a niche is that - because when I think high end gaming a laptop has all sorts of trade offs to make anyway.


On the potentially bright side maybe this will make people think harder about which model to use for which task. You don’t need to feed your entire code base into Opus when a Gemini Flash sub-agent can do a perfectly fine job running grep and compiling a summary for the main agent.
I also have a diverter which heats up my hot water tank which saves on gas, especially in the summer.
Export to the grid, for every kWh I export during the day I can afford two kWh overnight.


I think the article is over complicating things. I work in a project which is heavily forked for a variety of reasons. While it’s academically interesting to look at the reasons for those downstream forks we have no interest in going to the considerable effort of tracking them all.
If you can take a project and use an LLM to enable your niche use case then more power to you. FLOSS was never about ensuring all patches flow upstream.


They don’t have to be. They know what they asked the LLM to do. They know how much they adapted the output. You usually have to work to get the models to spit out significant chunks of memorised text.


No, that’s why the author asserts that with their signed-of-by. It’s what I do if I use any LLM content as the basis of my patches.


If the 2-10% is just boilerplate syscall number defines or trivial MIN/MAX macros then it’s just the common way to do things.


If you are using MakeMKV when ripping you can override the filename template. So I name them for example “Show s01e04+” based on the disc I’m ripping. Then once encoded it’s relatively quick to rename the files with the full episode number. I personally use dired in Emacs because a macro makes short work of the renaming but I’m sure other solutions are possible.
My kids are growing up in this environment and they already have an eye for ai slop. I suspect it’s the same thing that led to OpenAI’s TikSlop “product” is getting canned. After society had gotten over the sugar rush excitement of new and shiny toys I suspect the interest will fade and people will crave the connection you get from real art made by real people.
At least I hope that is what will happen. We might have to do something to hold the tech companies accountable for their dopamine trigger machines though.


Where are you seeing the 2-10% figure?
In my experience code generation is most affected by the local context (i.e. the codebase you are working on). On top of that a lot of code is purely mechanical - code generally has to have a degree of novelty to be protected by copyright.


They don’t, just like they don’t with human submitted stuff. The point of the Signed-off-by is the author attests they have the rights to submit the code.


I have a sneaking suspicion a lot of the posts there are just engagement bait anyway.


Especially useful on my TV’s anemic Sony browser when I’m trying to diagnose of my network is crapping out or the apps are just in a go slow.
I thought the whole “virgin” thing was an interpretation of the original Greek or Aramaic for “maid”, as in a young women of child rearing age.
Where you live maybe. The NHS is centrally funded through taxation.
