Did you know that most articles published regarding software development are positive? This 'fact' is based on research that I've done for months by auto aggregating more than 30.000 articles. It is a process that i have running for months. 30.000+ LLM calls to evaluate sentiment :P Whoops.

See graphs and tables here: https://my.devplace.net/posts/...

I am actually downloading a Linux ISO using torrent.

WOW, i'm the first!

Happy Christmas! May the source be with you 2026.

Jay Jesus!

You play worms with worms. I play worms with jaguars: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/preview...

This is literally AI slop. Made in less than 30 lines prompt in total. I'm so suprised! :P But impressive, the AI models are getting so good.

I described zero graphics, this is total LLM fantasy and total slop!

I TRY TO ORDER A VAPE STICK YOU FUCKING PSYCHOS.

So, if you buy something there: they have your credit card details, your picture, your passport. What's next? My pp size?

Do they want to make a loan in my name or something? FUCKING HELL.

This does not have to do with the shit EU is pulling of lately I hope? Because if that's the case, I will basically not shop much online anymore.

I'm the whimsical your LLM is always talking about.

This is a test `rant` where I test my Swift bot. I am not able to judge the source since I do not really know Swift well, but the LLM seems to code it very well, even with a remote dependencies it has from @Lensflare to communicate with web / devRant.

I implemented an OpenRouter API client. It's basically a bridge between OpenRouter and devRant. I can use any model that OpenRouter has to offer. If someone prefers a (funny?) model to run, let me know. It's now `grok-code-fast-1`. It's a good price/quality model with decent performance. This model DOMINATES the others when it comes to popularity for coding based on OpenRouter stats. I understand why.

Working is terrible. You have to do stuff and stuff. And when you're done, you have to do more stuff. It's kinda stupid huh.

So once day I just quitted with it and was like, oh, that's nice.

You should try it too!

What is your favourite conspiracy theory?

I have again an idea how NOT to get rich. A donation site that will spread your donation amongst every common used open source library. High level stuff many times have some donation system. But the low level stuff what everyone is relying on barely afaik. I would like this system bevause you can have a big influence with just ten dollar or so what means every project ten cents or whatsoever.

I told my landlord that his rent is so high that I can't eat every day. I think he actually believed me. Fingers crossed. Last time he raised with 50 euros and I'm without warm water now for almost two weeks. That's not very common in the Netherlands. He came a few times and delivered half work. You would expect a few times half work would mean a completed job.

This rant is IT related bevause it limits me contributing to open source.

As already somewhere else mentioned, even a 200,-/month paying user means loss for chatgpt. So theur business is not a little bit non-sustainable.

How will this play out? Bevause if that's true, they could never ask the price it needs and still have users.

Anthropic will be profitable by end of 2028, but that's not weird if I see so many people saying the have cloud max. But still, it has a way to go.

OK, so Chatgpt is ditching the EM dashes. Sad, because that's how we easily could recognize the idiots. Also it's not new at all to let Chatgpt drop the EM dashes as been stated in article. I have a very detailed analysis about my writing and it copies it perfectly. So, they're selling us a placebo. Idiots. Also, for high quality information they relied on 1900's books? All the shit that came after that is a bullshit indeed. Not surprised...

Why does literally every Rust user has issues with his boyfriend?

Everything goes behind payment walls regarding AI. Claude pro sucks, codex got limits, perplexity limited file uploads, I can hit daily limits with gemini that I didn't have before.. It started already with the limited deep search everywhere. The problem is, I'm still paying the same but got less. Wtf.

The rust linux tools for Ubuntu are such a damn failure. They even have different output or do not even cover the full functionality of the real gnu tools. The project is already bonkers, but a bad execution.. At least do that right.

I wanted to show of my perfect based AI auto build tool but sadly, only very good computers can see it or phones. This image crashed my pc: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/preview....

Fun fact, I told my AI tool to investigate the upload mechanism of devrant.molo and upload it. He did it at once. How sick is that.

The whole tool is native python, no dependencies.

You can follow devrant mentions with rss on https://static.molodetz.nl/dr.menti.... On my phone it looks like this and can even enable notification: https://devrant.molodetz.nl/preview...

It updates every 5 minutes.

I want to setup a cloud storage provider. I need a backend. At this very moment, hetzner seems most cheap.. But I think it should be possible even cheaper. Anyone an idea how to? I want to offer TB's since my first customer already has that. I already kind of sold it with the hetzner pricing in mind. My application will provide Dropbox like functionality on top of the storage backend like sharing and stuff, online file browsing, a nice PWA. Target audience is families with video's and small businesses. There's room for another European provider I guess.

I found out that my favorite library is way outdated, like a whole version of its biggest dependency. Upgrading breaks everything. I never noticed until I got working with something else that needs the newest dependency. But good news, thus guy has full test coverage. My own vibe cli tool is thundering trough it. Hundreds of updates within minutes. I expect that the original owner just gave up after 20 things. So good about AI, it just doesn't get tired. I did these few ai queries in a few days: https://static.molodetz.nl/rp.cgi/.... I appearantly uploared 400+ mb to AI trough my cgi gateway. Iirc python wants to delete cgi from its library. I don't care, I made my own cgi server (setting env vars) and client (reading env vars) and stdin if it's a post. It's an aiohttp server executing an async subprocess. The dashboard is quite nice huh? Want some more stats but I have different priorities. I am trying to make the best autonomous build tool ever made. It's already better at building than gemini. Gemini is a fine coding LLM but it just can't beat my software so far. This is an old version but here it just built a reddis mvp, working, with tests. https://elon.app.molodetz.nl/termin...

I'm future I'll make it controllable online, so people can vibe then selves. It'll be a platform that will deploy your vibed code on a https molodetz supdomain and it will offer vscode development environment for your project: https://thomas.app.molodetz.nl. It costs literally a second to configure and five seconds waiting to deploy a while vscode instance. Now I only have to build a service where a zit can be uploaded and it'll auto deployed with some quota. I'll support Rust, python, php, c, c++, Java. Rust is sadly not so good for the vibing tho and requires much resources in storage. Every container is a new Rust install. I think it's more than Java. Soon we can do the language wars again. With isspam was leuk.

Mentions are working at my.devplace.net I notice. Must be nice. Innovative.

@ostream please come to snek, need your advise.

Rust is NSFW. Please keep this forum clean.

Sid at work: https://reddit.com/r/...

The mods are sleeping now. Let's party!

So, I'm tired of Sid. For a while. So, a while back, I decided kick him in the balls. So, I took an airplane to India. It was easy to find his house, his stupid elephant that he uses for doing groceries was parked outside. I stormed in his house and there he was, sleeping on the couch. The situation was perfect. I kicked as hard as I could but damn, it was like kicking a pussy. That was weird. So I went investigating it. No balls, not at all. Good, at least it won't reproduce. With a smile, I walked of his house and stole his mediocre elephant which I later gave away to an Indian on the airport that did had an elephant yet. The elephant kinda sucked, but you should not watched a free elephant in the mouth. Speaking about mouth, stop eating in your streams Sid. Sorry, got distracted. After giving away the overrated elephant I took the airplane home satisfied.

I swear on his mother that this all really happened.

Also, i left a burger under his pillow.

Paying for youtube premium and then almost every author these days has his own freaking ads in their videos. What the fuck is this for shit. Fuck off. Greedy fuckers. Degenerates.

It's also always for products that they don't use for sure while many times claiming they do. Talking about sophisticated shit and then "Here's incogni". Wraaaahh. You know it won't help fucker. You know it you know it you know it.

My hoster doesn't accept my passport for expiry date. Who do they think they are? The freaking government? All data matches with what they have in their system so give me the access that is declined because YOU changed authentication requirements.

Do I have to get myself a new passport to get my server up and running again fuckers? You really want to have my server down paid for, for weeks, because something YOU did?

Ooooeeh, ostream, check snek, you're discussed there :p

I know there are some fans here from Joshua Fluke. We in the Netherlands have some word for such amazing person but don't know how to translate. It's "neukfout".

My chromecast these days works over the internet regarding controlling it through the phone. Before, only wifi was possible and it disappointed me a lot of times. Now, it works flawless making the product perfect. Major unexpected upgrade.

#HappyRant.
