Bonus:

In the ‘Medium’ difficulty category, OpenAI’s o4-mini-high model scored the highest at 53.5%.

This fits my observation of such models. o4-mini-high is able to help me with 80-90% of the problems at work. For the remaining problems, it would come up with a nonsensical solution and no matter how much I prompt it, it would tunnel-vision on that specific approach. It could never second guess itself and realise that its initial solution is completely off the mark, and try an entirely differently approach. That's where I usually step in and do the work myself.

It still saves me time with the trivial stuff though.

I can't say the same for the rest of the LLMs. They are simply no good at coding and just waste my time.

Y'know, concentrating power in the hands of a single person / group defeats the purpose of decentralisation.

I can understand if the damage is limited to communities within a single instance, but when a ban is so far-reaching - across so many instances - it makes me wonder what's the point of choosing Lemmy over, say, Reddit.

It's still the same problem again, just with different people in charge - like Bluesky vs Twitter.

The joke is that they are all soulless corporations.

TLDR: it doesn't make (or save) money for companies in the short-term.

This is just a meme, but I find that communication is an underrated skill among software engineers.

Personally, I'm trying to get better at it.

Help why is my password showing up as asterisks?

Y'all are too mature.

Clearly, it tastes like your mom.

Why would he need to do so? We all know he lives at The White House.
