on ‘Doom Loop’: OpenAI and Microsoft Admits LLMs Are Destroying the Web and Built on Theft in c/technology@lemmy.world · 6d ago
Slop commenting. The litany of AI slop websites that have popped up, polluting search results. The absolute flood of AI slop pull requests being submitted to open source projects, to the point at which many open source maintainers are buckling under the weight of garbage being thrown their way. Bots everywhere. The list goes on and on and on.
The internet is already a dessicated husk of what it once was.

I’m saying that AI companies have repeatedly shown a flagrant disregard for licenses, contracts, and the law, and have engaged in massive theft. Why should we expect that any contract would actually be honored? The whole thing is a huge fucking grift.

I was not talking about your specific lawsuit, or TLS.
Companies trust other companies all the time, and it’s foundational to most all SLA/SLOs. Any time I’ve voiced concerns around how AI companies are using the data we are giving them (like giving them access to our codebase), it’s brushed off as “we have an agreement with them”. It’s just a load of hogwash. They can and will abuse all data they have access to, just as they have done thus far.
In this particular case, we are talking about a data center, and it is not at all reasonable to assume that the data that flows to said data center is in any way protected, especially one run by Musk.

Still means jack shit. Companies will lie through their teeth and violate any and all they can get away with.
They are not to be trusted.

I do use quite a bit, but I also do a lot of different things. Compiling code, running docker containers, local web servers, an android emulator, slack, browser tabs for Jira/confluence/figma/etc., all adds up pretty quick.
8GB is definitely nowhere near enough, at least for what I need to do.

What the actual fuck, Guardian.

on Torvalds: AI Is the New Compiler, Not the New Programmer in c/technology@lemmy.world · 17 Aug 2026
Did the headline change? The current headline is Torvalds: “100% of Their Code is Written by Compilers” Too
The title of this post makes for a dumb headline, at any rate. Linus, in response to claims in the industry that projects are now “99% written by AI”, drew an analogy to compilers by saying that all machine code for projects are written by compilers, yet no one says their project was 100% written by a compiler. It’s just talking about stupid hype, which is valid.
That being said, it’s still quite unfortunate that Linus has fallen into the trap of LLMs.

This is what happens when you don’t take a stand against this shit. He brought it on himself.
I’m not sure what you mean by “standard DB queue” (perhaps you mean a message queue, I guess?), but yeah Redis (or really, Valkey, now, since Redis tried to change license on everyone) is a very important tool in the toolbox for system design. In-memory databases trade persistence guarantees for raw throughput, and are very well-suited for different workloads than a traditional database is. It’s great for caching, rate-limiting, realtime analytics, leaderboards… Basically anything with ephemeral data or data that can easily be reconstructed from some other source of truth. It’s an optimization tool that can significantly reduce the load on your primary application database for certain workloads (and achieve higher throughput).
