Radio player—refactored & reborn!
The Internet radio stream player hosted by this blog has been completely overhauled, revamped, refactored, rewritten. In fact, it’s literally by no means what it was, even if it looks…
When Pro is not quite Pro—farewell, Claude in Antigravity!
I might seem unreasonable to castigate Google’s new policies towards Pro plans obtained via bundled promotions or “partner benefits,” but even if such plans were unfair to the majority of…
Claude Haiku 5.5: a diligent, dumb workhorse?
As people who follow my blog might know, I fell out of love with Claude at some point, despite it being one of my favorite chatbots for a long time.…
Now I am even more perplexed!
In my previous post, in a nutshell, I expressed my disappointment with Gemini (especially for coding, but also as an all-purpose chatbot) and, among other things, my surprise that ChatGPT’s…
Gemini is increasingly bad, but ChatGPT surprised me
Using LLMs is as unpredictable as the weather. One day a model seems decent; the next day its next version (or even the same version!) disappoints completely. I keep giving…
From noatime to Wayland: more Linux mysteries
I just added to my Small polish touches to Debian 13 installed via Xebian the 21st suggestion, Taking inspiration from MX: noatime,lazytime, so I wanted to make the same changes…
Woes with Bluetooth and the audio jack in Windows

The democratic setup that will never be
While I was exasperated by the Sisyphean effort of forming a new government in a certain country, an old thought of mine resurfaced, and it has to do with the…
Trust AI-generated code. Not.
Ludditus: WordPress search in posts now shows posts sorted probably by relevance instead of showing the most recent first. Can this be changed? Gemini: Yes, this can definitely be changed.…
The AP Stylebook is divisive, not helpful
Before commenting on something that the AP Stylebook’s Facebook account posted yesterday, I’ll show you a grammar question I recently asked Gemini because it’s relevant in this context: Ludditus: Which…

Someone commented on an old post of mine, AppImages: the worst choice in “portability” (with examples), which made me aware of this project: Anylinux AppImages. Some relevant links: Anylinux-AppImages on…
Iar e pe ulei Gemini
Întrebare: cum se chema în Franța, imediat după război, planul care hotărea ce tip de autovehicule să fabrice marii producători? Cretinul caută pe web, cugetă, după care și-o bagă singur…
I’m afraid of Gemini 3.8 Flash!
I didn’t notice that the Flash version had changed from 3.7 to 3.8 when I first asked Gemini a question earlier today. I wasn’t even aware of the announcement: Introducing…
Gemini and Qwen explained IMAX to me!
I have held a grudge against IMAX, so I put an argument “on paper” (so to speak) and fed it to Gemini and Qwen. Why the 1.43 aspect ratio? The…
attirant, attrayant, attractif: ghid pentru românii ca mine
Din sutele de interacțiuni pe care le am în fiecare lună cu Gemini, ChatGPT și Qwen, prea puține ajung să fie menționate în spațiul public (mai postez câte ceva pe…

Unii cretini mă iau la pulă (în comentarii pe care nu le aprob) când postez conversații cu chatboți, dar această discuție este informativă și nu am detectat halucinații în ea.…
Amendamentele Grădinaru și Fritz în deciziile CCR: Gemini
Discuția cu Gemini se poate citi și aici. Am pus doar 3 întrebări, iar ulterior am revenit cu a patra. ❶ Eu: Există vreo țară europeană în care legislația anticorupție…
Nolan’s Odyssey—not a review
As someone wrote about it, The cast marshaled for this movie is an embarrassment of riches: Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Charlize Theron, Robert Pattinson, John Leguizamo, Mia…
Maybe I wasn’t wrong to hate PackageKit, after all
I hated PackageKit in 2008, then I got used to it as it became omnipresent, so I just ignored it. Most people have nothing against it (it’s for your security!)…
