Alternate headline: Bannon tells GOP they’ve been doing just an absolute fuckton of crimes.

Sadly, getting sued is exactly what these hate-filled pieces of shit want. They want it to go to SCOTUS, which will merrily say, “fuck precedent, let’s make the gays stop marrying. Get back in the closet!”

Throw the actual ICE “agents” who did that into prison for kidnapping and human trafficking. There have to be consequences for shit like this.

Have some sympathy for them. After all, what other choice do they have? They spent the entire campaign and all of the Biden administration lying continuously about how many undocumented immigrants there are in the country, how frequently they cross the border, how many are dangerous… basically, their entire campaign was built on obvious, blatant lies for stupid people.

So now they don’t have any other option but to layer on additional lies about how effective ICE is and to “deport” people here legally - sometimes to countries they’ve never been in.

Have some sympathy. Being this psychotically evil is hard work!

Living up to the username, I see.

The thing is, it really won’t. The context window isn’t large enough, especially for a decently-sized application, and that seems to be a fundamental limitation. Make the context window too large, and the LLM gets massively offtrack very easily, because there’s too much in it to distract it.

And LLMs don’t remember anything. The next time you interact with it and put the whole codebase into its context window again, it won’t know what it did before, even if the last session was ten minutes ago. That’s why they so frequently create bloat.

Well, if I’m not, then neither is an LLM.

But for most projects built with modern tooling, the documentation is fine, and they mostly have simple CLIs for scaffolding a new application.

Yeah, I have never spent “days” setting anything up. Anyone who can’t do it without spending “days” struggling with it is not reading the documentation.

When you have no power to enact change, you speak truth to the ones who do.

It makes sense once you understand the conservative mindset: “Anyone who disagrees with me in even the most tepid of ways is a flaming liberal and doesn’t deserve to exist, because I’m so fragile I must be validated in my beliefs at all times.”

Once you recognize that we’re dealing with an entire political party that has actively driven itself insane and become a cult, this sort of thing becomes perfectly expected.

I’m a software developer and my company is piloting the use of LLMs via Copilot right now. All of them suck to varying degrees, but everyone’s consensus is that GPT5 is the worst of them. (To be fair, no one has tested Grok, but that’s because no one in the company wants to.)

On top of that, there’s so much AI slop all over the internet now that the training for their models is going to get worse, not better.

They’ll ask their parents, or look up cooking instructions on actual websites.

Venture capital drying up.

Here’s the thing… No LLM provider’s business is making a profit. None of them. Not OpenAI. Not Anthropic. Not even Google (they’re profitable in other areas, obviously). OpenAI optimistically believes it might start being profitable in 2029.

What’s keeping them afloat? Venture capital. And what happens when those investors decide to stop throwing good money after bad?

BOOM.

Yes they did. They got exactly what they bargained for. They’re just too fucking stupid to know it.

There are tricks to getting better output from it, especially if you’re using Copilot in VS Code and your employer is paying for access to models, but it’s still asking for trouble if you’re not extremely careful, extremely detailed, and extremely precise with your prompts.

And even then it absolutely will fuck up. If it actually succeeds at building something that technically works, you’ll spend considerable time afterwards going through its output and removing unnecessary crap it added, fixing duplications, securing insecure garbage, removing mocks (God… So many fucking mocks), and so on.

I think about what my employer is spending on it a lot. It can’t possibly be worth it.

Yeah, code bloat with LLMs is fucking monstrous. If you use them, get used to immediately scouring your code for duplications.

Yeah, I’m thinking this case gets tossed, with prejudice, within the next 48 hours.

Way ahead of you on the savings part, but how are you buying land in Canada without being a Canadian citizen?

I don’t, I fucking live here and I’d like my money to be worth something next week!
