I asked their chatbot who was saying to break the cover of the meter first. I wasn't comfortable with that advice, so I asked the chatbot to get me in touch with their team.
Today, I got reimbursed of the non compatible sensor.
Glad I didn't break my water meter...

Companies will lose money and trust using LLM chatbots.

I recently bought a sensor for my water meter. It wasn't clear if the sensor was compatible. I wanted to email the company but there was only a chatbot that said it was compatible. After receiving it, I couldn't figure out how to install it

2025 LLM Year in Review 2025 Year in Review of LLM paradigm changes

"And while agent swarms running in the cloud feels like the "AGI endgame", we live in an intermediate and slow enough takeoff world of jagged capabilities that it makes more sense to run the agents directly on the developer's computer." karpathy.bearblog.dev/year-in-revi...

After moving our dev workload to the cloud (at Google we dropped our beloved workstations circa 2020, for more powerful and accessible cloud instances), are we going to move it back to a powerful machine with gpu, in order to run llm inference ourselves (maybe cheaper and def more private)?

Every airport should have a post box in the departure area. Really!

Disposable Code Is Here to Stay, but Durable Code Is What Runs the World Every day I seem to run into yet another post with someone solemnly opining that “writing code has never been the hardest part of software engineering. And hey, that’s smashing.

Disposable Code Is Here to Stay, but Durable Code Is What Runs the World www.honeycomb.io/blog/disposa...

The difficulty is how to move from disposable to trusted code imho? How to take a huge bunch of code and make it production ready?

Graphique issu d'un article de Libération L’organisation Anti-Defamation League a recensé, depuis 2005, les meurtres ou séries de meurtres commis aux Etats-Unis par des membres de groupes extrémistes. Sur 20 ans, une très large majorité des meurtriers (347 sur 371) sont liés à des organisations d’extrême droite. Pour la majorité d’entre eux (262), il s’agit de suprémacistes blancs. Les autres sont principalement liés à la mouvance complotiste et anti-gouvernementale, comme les «citoyens souverains».

Depuis 2005 aux USA, 93% des assassinats commis par des extrémistes sont le fait de l'extrême droite. Partout, l'antiwokisme s'impose pour invisibiliser ces crimes dont il est complice par ses silences et ses outrances.

Why do LLM coding models add so many emojis in the code/logs? Is it widely done in public repos?

Less experienced engineers overly rely on LLMs without understanding the output, adding more work on the reviewers. metr.org/blog/2025-07...

The quality of software engineering is worrisome these days. Less experienced engineers rely so much on LLMs, don't always check the generated code nor understand it. Thus reviews take much longer, as I need to ask more questions, and even sometimes help them understand their own code.

One of the reasons I left the USA last year was to avoid getting back to this weird constant feeling of anxiety while Trump was last president. Today, I want to avoid having these feelings back, I hope it doesn't mean having to leave Bluesky too. youtu.be/t7pH36-5UBo?...
