Your question is probably rethorical but I feel the need to put it out there : It’s because it’s been advertised as such. LLMs are not advertised as language based AI but as something “intelligent” with “reasoning” abilities, which they inherently do not have.

But that’s not what most people were told. For a large amount of them, LLMs can “think” and should be able to solve problems, such as chess…

I have a rough idea of their efficiency as I’ve used them, not in professional settings but I wager it would not be too different.

My point is more that it feels like the rugs are finally starting to get pulled. This tech is functionnal as you said, it works to a point and that point is enough for a sizeable amount of people. But I doubt that the price most people are paying now is enough to cover the cost of answering their queries. Now that some people, especially younger devs or people who never worked without those tools are dependant on it, they can go ahead and charge more.

But it’s not too late, so I’m hoping it will make some people more aware of that kind of scheme and that they will stop feeding the AI hype in general.

Can’t comment on the code but the coloscheme of blue and orange, while eyecatching, can be a little… Agressive… So maybe they are talking about that.

Hopefully (?) this is the start of a trend and people might begin to realize how all those products are not worth their price and AI is an overhyped mess made to hook users before exploiting them…

Why would you make two generations the same colors when you could have use any other color or distinguish them with the style of the line 💀

Beside the fact that some software are STILL not supporting it, what do people have against webp ?

This is the right way to read this

Indeed very cool, but also quite disturbing the more you learn about less common wasps…

Probably read my comment a little fast but that’s okay. This fucking sucks, I hope we get out of this chat control nonsense at some point, otherwise decentralised and self hosted services and messaging apps will have to be the way to go.

So, not in favor of privacy… Fucking amazing…

Not mentionning that anyone can set up their own VPN server… Good fucking luck with that 💀

Not sure what Jo listens to but I recognized myself in his description.

You can lookup Sewerslvt (Mr.Kill Myself) for an exemple. I also listens to :

• Machine Girl (Try Krystle URL Cyberplace Mix)
• Goreshit (Try Fine Night or Black is the new black)
• Loffciamcore ( A little more hardcore than the others, try Eat Me)

Full disclaimer : I’ve only ever used stalwart. Started with it and had no reason to change.

Been using it for about a year as a mail server for my services.

The set up is simple, configuration can be done through the webui or the conf files.
Creating users, mails, aliases etc is very straight forward.
Everything is pretty much painless, the documentation has almost everything you might need.
You can also configure automatic cert renewal. Something else I really like is that when you add a domain (you can have multiple) it also gives you the DNS configuration to add to your DNS server.

Honestly I’d say it’s a solid choice. On my side it’ll be part of futur projects where a mail server is needed.

Thank you for added context ! As long as there are alternatives to Messenger chat i think it’s okay to have it.

The image email has is the one if an old school slugish administration, probably the one physical mails had when emails came around.

When I send an email to anyone, be it a company or an individual, I expect a reply in the next few days. But in chat I’m expecting a reply in a couple of hours. So I’d be much more inclined to a conversation via chat given the option.

Also I’m not certain my experience with younger people and email is representative, but from what I’ve seen younger generations are not the most at ease with email.

I think what’s lacking here is the choice. Messenger is more appealing to a vast amount of people, but to some it might be the opposite, and those people need an lternative.

Yes it’s a shame and I wish it was done another way, but also what alternative do they have ?

I’m gonna be the devil’s advocate here and say that if your goal is to have people reach out, you want to make it as painless as posible . The majority of the population has or had a facebook / messenger account making the process to start a chat a simple as a click in most cases. If people had to download a thrid party app or register on yet another plateform, they would probably not start a new chat.

With the recent events this makes it even more urgent to move away from meta products, but the EU being as big as it is, this will take some time…

Thanks that’s good to know :)

I just read a bit about it and it sounds quite interesting with the community aspect of it all. I’ll give it a deeper look later, thanks !

I think they meant the placement of the text, switching places between the “grandpop” and the “me”. Would make more sens to me.

AI users implies they are deployed and managed by the a company and can be configured to push ideas and agendas.

This is quite a big problem imo…
