Opensource@programming.dev•Vocalinux Is an Open-Source Voice Dictation App Built for Linux
1·1 month agoI currently use Speach Note, but it doesn’t support real-time dictation - it waits until the end of sentence to start processing.
What? You list metaprogramming as a plus? And functional programming as a minus?
You should rewrite this meme in rust.

I say mantra because there is a large amount of people just hating AI outright, without a grounded reasoning.
Granted, coding agents are insecure by default - they are built to execute remote code - but that does not mean they are generally useless/harmful/bad. I run them in a container, with access to the codebase only.
Also, they hallucinate, produce over-convoluted abstractions, do not know when to reject instead of blindly trying to find a way trough a brick wall.
But also, they can answer questions about gigantic codebases way faster than I could. They can generate tests, find missing test coverage, review code, and many other things.
Well, yes, but also - you don’t have to pay them. There are open-weights models you can run locally that contain most of that common-wealth knowledge.
Well, these are some kind of lightweight container, no? But without isolating network, or /etc, /proc, /usr, /var or dbus.
I do agree that linux needs a notion of an “app” (isolated, with access only to its config and files you give it, and a small, well-designed set of APIs for interacting with the system). For coding agents, I think a better answer are development containers, because that would be needed to prevent npm/cargo/python build scripts from causing harm anyway.
It’s probably something like “I’ve disabled agent’s
removeFiletool, but LLM figured out that it can use thebashtool, still”.It looks like “AI bad” or “Claude insecure” mantra.
No, I’ve removed the indentation of the first
ul
Too much list indentation. Cool glow effect
It will be better. You cannot escape it.

1·4 months agoFor a server like this 4GB of DDR4 is enough. And that is cheap still.
Linux really is the reason I dont’ play anymore. Thank you linux.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•My new static, multi-page calendar application
6·6 months agoThat’s a good point, months would need new names. And dates should have some other format, maybe a F prefix: FYYYY-MM-DD

I don’t understand: you are developing multiple software projects under a single brand? That also has a trade-able coin, for a reason?
