HW/FW security researcher & Demoscene elder.

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

  • Jag har hittills haft åsikten att vad jag än kan välja för bredband så väljer jag (och rekommenderar andra) Bahnhof eftersom oavsett om de är billigast eller inte så vet jag att mina pengar går till något bra för oss alla.

    Med Telenor som ägare kommer jag nu istället gå strikt på features vs kostnad. Antingen levererar de bäst eller inte.












  • 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.








  • Of course it’s not necessary. I’m a way-beyond-senior dev who laughed at LLMs up until a few months ago when trusted friends, whose competence is not in question, told me they got good usage out of them.

    I decided to challenge my convictions and sat down and took the time to learn how to use LLM assistants (I tried everyting from full vibe coding to manual gatekeeping of suggestions).

    Now I use them for my own personal projects, and I’m much more productive (for various reasons - but one is that the initial friction of oh yet another thing I have to learn just to do X is much lower. I have no boss telling me what to do, and I select my projects myself. If they didn’t bring any benefits I wouldn’t use them.
