So as mentioned by people earlier, devRant certificate is expired. Well, three things to do:
1. use dr.molodetz.nl for using devRant with a certificate.
2. write down snek.molodetz.nl or molodetz.online for when it really goes down, we're building a new community there. It's not ready yet, but is already in use for a long time. Literally everyone welcome. Just like dR, no moderation, freedom.
3. let's hope on not to loose too many friends!

devRant is a great site, but the wholesome, respectful community, is made by made by people.

Just a normal workday for me (play with sound): https://devrant.molodetz.nl/2025063...

Ugh, eyes irritated as fuck, can't find my sun glasses on strength. Can't find regular glasses either. I'm sure they are not here. I have to remove lenses, my day is basically ruined.

Codeium completely changed to windsurf whatever a fucking windsurf is. But the worst thing, it removed the statistics page that I dominated. Fuckers. It was cool having a 3rd party having some positive stats about you. The new profile page is private, only for yourself and is pure focussed on code generation converting my account from big numbers to no data available. Sad, was so proud.

Also, I had some personal communication with them before, but that's not available anymore either. Again, a nice company turned to some heartless corporate shell by investors.

Sad sad sad, was long ago I was so enthusiastic about a company. Traitors!

i suspect big spam attack soon from the wheelchair elite. https://dr.molodetz.nl will be soon the non-spam version of dr when that happens. It can just filter the spam directly when the bots can't handle it anymore. It also optimizes usernames for clarity: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Screens....

Imagine having put so much effort in spamming on both devRant and my personal portfolio repository with 20 to 50 items a day and just failing on both. My site does like devRant cleaning up every few seconds instead of getting some better captcha or disable API. I won't make my site less comfortable to work with because such loser. I already thought of a fun prank i can do with him. But for now, i'm too busy for that. Sitting in a wheelchair must piss someone off very hard.

Long enough pretended to be a software dev. This is what I really do in daily life: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/2025061...

I destroy electronics for recycling.

Also, oftem have to destroy brand new stuff. https://devrant.molodetz.nl/2025061...

"True wireless" :p. I destroy around 60 electronics per hour. Also iPhones often. Today THE classic iPod almost. But someone stole it. It's such environment.

Also looking at my own shit, but when I started professional software development the tolerance for bugs was way lower. You were also held more responsible. Maybe that was better. Current tooling and stuff makes so lazy. I think I make more errors writing python than C. It's the way how serious you take it. But with python you're at least sure you don't have a mistake in your hash map or array. The way I write python is really like "will fix it better some day" and moving on. Good about the attitude is that it makes progress. No liner for me anymore. Learn to read.

If everything is a secret, are they still secrets?

Woke is really a virus. One woke message in the context window of your LLM and the conversation is over. Nothing to discuss anymore. You're getting charged $0.06 per 1,000 tokens for woke lectures, $0.12 per 1,000 tokens for being judged.

Do not use AI services from chutes. I was talking with uncensored dolphin 30b, and not the LLM gave me a lecture, but the PROVIDER. Same for wizard from Microsoft. Microsoft does not filter that LLM but your freaking connection. How a bout that.

In the end i found a very nice solution for my Replika clone,. But shame on them. I really don't understand why they care so much about it. Imagine the AI costs to check every message if they're apropiate.

This tech could've been so much better in better hands. A realistic conversation like you have with dolphin is impossible with openai or the others.

Anyone tried the dobby LLM? What the fuck is that :P

Kiki, what was your site where you can slice product images for use as app icon / store picture and stuff? I desperately need it.

I remember that site delivering great results. The other sites suck or are paid.

What a time to be alive!

So, I got attacked by a lot of spam-repositories on molodetz. I'm sure it's the same spammer as we have here since the severity. He also mentions me often here on the platform under the account of a spam bot to troll me. Anyway, dear spammer, it took me 2,5 minute to resolve the issue.

Software Development 2025 everyone:

https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Screens...
https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Screens...

I achieved this with almost one line of prompt: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Screenc...

What i did is first get some authentication of https://random.molodetz.nl since the llm can't figure out unique usernames and such. Then just do that simple instruction like "Go there, register, go to general chat, send message, press enter, wait 30 secs, close browser'.

DIT IS FUCKING WORKS. What a time to be alive.

I was actually building this myself, but this sick thing even solves captcha's.

It's the browser_use library. Impressive shit.

Spam's going hard again.

What can you do to help?

Adopt an anti-spam bot here and claim it as your own: https://birth.molodetz.nl

Take good care for it.

OK, so, @Demolishun seems gone. Big surprise. He spent a lot of time here like I do. He did not insinuate any signs of being done or unhappy. Adding the fact that he was a stable happy daddy with the daddest jokes often showing how well he knows the people here makes it so weird and unexpected.

Also weird, @Demolishun's deletion got captured in a hour or so (yesterday it was noticed already, but I was like, maybe he comes back) and still nobody noticed that @electrineer is gone for a few months now or so. Meh, he hated me anyway.

Don't people know that devrant is hosted on an airfield? You have to check in and check out.

Some of you are aware what emails I send to companies to bash them very accurate to the bone and even emphasize them how dissapointed I am. I make it very personal. You fuckers wasted my time.

But, when someone does it well, I also say it. I've sent my second love email to codeium and they responded. But this time, it was AI and it was noted under the message that it was made with AI. OpenAI doesn't do that. So again, my respect raised for them.

I only use their auto complete feature while they offer a complete ide and stuff. But auto complete so well based on my own way of coding is just made in heaven. Codeium really affected my life in positive way. I mean, I really like to everything myself but not using their autocomplete would be even stupid imho.

I also really like that I'm in the top 0.01% users while using the free version 😂 But I'm just only interested in that 😂vibe coding is just not a thing at all yet, not in the neighborhood. Only if you have no vision regarding code style tbh. Won't not even call theirs bad, but it's just not mine.

What a distopia: https://youtu.be/X2sEoZG8EIw/...

I have so much words about this, don't even know where to start.

This made me angry, like really angry. Every minute is disturbing.

Most people are not reasoning models.

They could train them selves endless on information without really understanding it and will just repeat. By the fact that they've trained SO MUCH you would actually believe they're reasoning models but in the end they've never crafted something themselves and probably not able to. Never really tried because the fact other exist that have probably done it better. Killing.

OK, quite dramatic, but I was considering writing another regex interpreter. It makes the warrior in your awake. Never fuck with people who wrote one.

Also a tip for people ever considering one. Define for yourself what regex is and how it actually works up front and mark your project done when that is achieved. Just making 'an' regex interpreter is not not a solid plan.

Writing a regex interpreter is pure reasoning, you can get very high on it.

Holy fuck guys, OpenWebUI generates previews of the pages it designs using HTML / CSS.

I vibed this whole Lumia (Nokia) WIndows Phone web component, just in the interface (shows after generating in video): https://devrant.molodetz.nl/vibe_de...

Guys, the designers can go HOME! Never liked them anyway. Potheads.

On top of it, it produces way better HTML / CSS than I do myself. WIth javascript some preference differences but that's it. In the end, i've refactored the code always like 80% or something.

The new snek update will be ratched! But will take a week I guess.

I'm so happy.

Before covid: everyone could become a friend!
After covid: most of people not.

That's what covid period did to me and thuw still affects me. Wish I could go back to the time that I was much more positive about general population.

But I know who to blame. The news and their polarisation. Never forget.

What they did was batshit crazy. I want to see people jailed.

They were not critical so they should not pretend to protect democracy. They were exactly when needed not doing their job and did spread propoganda.

I really pray, go bankrupt traditional media. Please.

I have to work with many people together today and I don't want to meet them. I don't want to leave more than 5km from my chalet unless skis are involved.

https://crystal-lang.org/

Experimented. Made a websocket app. Compiled to nice single binary. Package management bit meh. Some std issues but it's soon I guess?

Am I late of early to this party?

Thoughts / experiences regarding this language anyone?

I am watching a video about one of the biggest media agencies of NL and the use of AI.

Well, I see a problem of AI that it never does exactly what you want. Very easy if you do not have really a picture in your head of what you want.

But then again: how close is something a human creates to the picture in your mind normally?

On top of that, if you don't like it, AI generates again. But a human will take some days or so.

So, who will be the more comfortable designer to work with?

I have no idea, I never instructed a designer.

I have as truck to open any bottle to be fast. But recently I was at a science museum. They had a big rock on a stick that you could turn around. They said, you can turn it with one finger. Just push slowly and long enough. And it worked, all heavy things are easy to lift by keeping to push with some patience. I do it with bottles right now and with using little power and just some patience *plop*.

It blew my mind.

I'm so tired. I live in a park and can't receive packages, post people refuse to enter the park. That's fine, you pay 8,50 extra for a delivery location (supermarket, gass station, read shop). Also fine. But they keep sending it to my home address resulting everytime to "not home, deliver tomorrow" and then they send it to a delivery location two times further than what I've asked for. This happened several times. How retarted are they. Fuckers. And the money is just gone, every time. Aaaaargh.

This time mailed for a compensation. Next day in house they say. For everyone, but not for me, while charging extra.

There we go, openai created exactly my vibe coding tool `R`. You'll see this will be booming. The cli is convincing as F. But nobody was interested in a CLI tool. Mine also manages files and updates existing projects as well by filtering on any source type. It has 20 functions to communicate with your system. Mine also supports Claude and it's blazing openai away, but Claude has some token limits if you do it a lot. Also Grok and Ollama (so a bunch).

Anyway, I was first fuckers.

What positive support stories do you guys have?

I have two:

One, is from myself. I lost the power cable to my XPS 15 (the fancy one, 4k touch) and had a knock off replacement battery that got in flames. I called support that I can't find original adapter anywhere for my XPS and told also that I lost the original one. They just sent me a new one for free! Would it have to do since it was such fancy laptop?

Other one was from a friend, together we tried to install Linux on an iPod (such classing one with 80gb I guess) and that thing did nothing anymore in exception of showing a penguin and turn off again. Anyway, he went to the store and got it replaced for free!

Worst support: OpenAI. It has automated service pretending to be human that emphatizes with you. It defines your problem in it's own words (pretending to have listened) and says things like "Oh, that sounds bad if x y z", And that's all. I wrote several emails so I know they're fake as f. Always that empathy email. They're evil. The amount of things that don't work at OpenAI is too damn high!

Pine cone: I told them about their weird billing practices, got nothing back. I still often e-mail them. But I do not think they spend time on a lost customer.

https://devrant.molodetz.nl/Gotta-g..., after updating https://molodetz nl/log ofcourse. No time is ever wasted.

Images don't upload to devrant at the moment. Use https://devrant.molodetz.nl. Videos also allowed.

Dear diary,

Today with my dad at AI expo, and it was the best person to go with. He has learnt reinforcement learning and ocr. Never enjoyed a museum together that much. There were also steam engines and minecraft carts and elevator.

Did you know that the car years ago was considered dangerous bevause you didn't have a horse to protect you from mistakes? In horses we trust, nit in Tesla.

It was a great day.

I'm getting lol'd at: https://devrant.com/rants/12086556/...

Gave it an up vote. Nothing worse than a bad loser.

Streamii, you make jokes, but i don't. I deliver: https://molodetz.nl/project/...

A tamagotchi written in C using R especially for you. I'm sure it will work for 20 years. Cherish it.
