    The fact it’s open source and can be run isolated from a network is reassuring—but not everyone can do that, and there’s no guarantee the version you’re using online is identical to the open source version. I think caution with the online version is pretty warranted.

    Maybe I’ve been lucky, but I bought an HP M476DN in 2015, and no problems using non-oem toner, toner top up, etc. No subscription nonsense, no firmware upgrades nobbling things. Maybe I’ll regret posting this when HP find out but it doesn’t owe me anything nearly 10 years later…


  • My PhD was in neural networks in the 1990s and I’ve been in development since then.

    Remember when digital cameras came out? They were pretty crappy compared to film—if you had a decent film camera and knew what you were doing. I fell like that’s where we’re at with LLMs right now.

    Digital cameras are now pretty much on par with film, perhaps better in some circumstances and worse in others.

    Shifting gear from writing code to reviewing someone else’s is inefficient. With a good editor setup and plenty of screen real estate, I’m more productive just writing than constantly worrying about what the copilot just inserted. And yes, I’ve tested that.
