  • I understand some of the hype. LLMs are pretty amazing nowadays (though closedai is unethical af so don’t use them).

    I need to program complex cryptography code for university. Claude sonnet 3.5 solves some of the challenges instantly.

    And it’s not trivial stuff, but things like “how do I divide polynomials, where each coefficient of that polynomial is an element of GF(2^128).” Given the context (my source code), it adds it seamlessly, writes unit tests, and it just works. (That is important for AES-GCM, the thing TLS relies on most of the time .)

    Besides that, LLMs are good at what I call moving words around. Writing cute little short stories in fictional worlds given some info material, or checking for spelling, or re-formulating a message into a very diplomatic nice message, so on.

    On the other side, it’s often complete BS shoehorning LLMs into things, because “AI cool word line go up”.









  • Holding back? I’m not held back. Codeberg would be a step back, I self host Forgejo and am so hyped up for forgefed.

    I set up mirrors for my more important stuff to Codeberg and GitHub for visibility.

    About CI/CD: does Codeberg not let you enable actions, which are basically the same as GitHub actions but for self hosting? That’s what I use for my self hosted CI. I think you can add your own workers for orgs, repos, and profiles too on Forgejo, should be doable on Codeberg too. (I don’t use Codeberg CI, only my own)
