them throttling the throughput of those connections (by dropping the video/audio HLS streams) is saving zero real money, it's all paper savings

Replying to mtcdood #mtcdood Once one of those big companies that don't have to pay these fees decide "I could make some money off this free resource" everyone downstream gets punished.
I do agree with this to a point though, if you suddenly made bandwidth free odds are you'd have Network abuse, even if I can't predict the exact form it would take
How the new guy found the server lmao
Whoever this is. I am NOT spooky
Amazing
you can tell which server theme existed
naw it's fine Pika, you can be me
You've never seen us in the same room together
no this is 2 months ago on r/mindcrackdiscussions
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 he still owns wittywizard.com and urealms.com
hes still paying for wittywizard...
I know he let some of his meme domains go, but it would be hard to part with your old domains
but then again, I'm the outlier, because I see SOOO many people release their domains for nothing when a project ends
which then immediately become AI slop websites
at ~$10/year you can just keep paying the fucking domain
remember spooky
Rob overpays
since you pay 10k a year for yours
he overpays for hosting, domains are sorta a fixed cost
I am sure he found a way to overpay for the domain too
GoDaddy domain protection ultra
wtf
I was kidding
lol
The only thing I can assume is they lock all similar domains
Max, do you think he pays $5/month for this?

Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 Max, do you think he pays $5/month for this? (edited)
no
I need someone with an opinion to weigh in
do you like when transcriptions have uh's and um's in them
I was watching it around this timestamp, and was going back and forth
(I'm changing up my remote runner setup so I can actually process transcriptions faster)

Like here, it should be included
interesting, I was leaning towards the exact opposite
but again, idk, hence why I'm asking
I'm leaning towards,
Remove:
- Um's
- Uh's
- Oh's
- Ah's
- Like's
I think a 1 to 1 transcription even if there's a lot of um's and uh's is better, because in my mind the transcription is for having written what was said, so having that makes the most sense to me
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 I'm leaning towards, Remove:Keep
- Um's
- Uh's
(edited)
- Oh's
- Ah's
- Like's
completely agree that Oh's, Ah's, and Like's should not be removed
Replying to legorhin #jazardly does a stenographer keep ums?
Typically yes, but there are exceptions

Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 Polar, I'm not shilling when I say this I really don't think many people appreciate how overpowered AI are at coding now
my company has an internal version of ChatGPT and i gotta be honest its terrible. i know the latest gemini and Claude are much better than GPT 5, but Ill boil my problems down to the most leetcode-y type problem i can and at best take like a quarter of its code and do the rest my self.
Our internal Open-source GPT-knock-off at work sucks too, we've been lobbying for a while to bring Anthropic on-prem, but no luck thus far
I've been generally pretty impressed at the coding up-tick since the last major models released in October/November
they're not better than people who know the codebase and work in it every day or anything
but I've found they're able to debug and self-test pretty efficiently

i basically only ask it questions on writing efficent pandas dataframe manipulations. it doesnt know shit about lesser-known librarys even when i include the docs in the prompt
I hate that, it feels like a lot of LLMs "cost save" by just regurgitating what it thinks the answer you're looking for is
rather than actually doing and computational work
That's one of the ways clueless students using AI to cheat on tests get caught, when it's giving you the straight Quora answer that it determined was "close enough" to what you were probably asking

it also gets wayyy to verbose and adds unnecessary lines of code. some times i ask it for an algorthm. i have a general idea that it shouldnt be more than ~20ish lines. maybe 40 if you really over comment everything. but it gives me 100 lines and im just like, there is no way this is effecient if it even works

0 chance im letting it touch any written code. maybe next time im bored and use claud for a personal project
oh 100%, introducing an AI into old code in your IDE is just asking for trouble
you need to clean fork anything you're going to start sloppifying
And where would we be if 90% of the projects on Github weren't drowning in random emoji spam
