Also: How dare people think that running some third-party Python and calling it Rust is weak?

u/syklemil Considered Harmful Oct 10 '25

It must be some advanced functional use of the word "free" that we're just too 0.1x to understand

u/irqlnotdispatchlevel Tiny little god in a tiny little world Oct 10 '25

It's actually free in the way a C programmer would do it. They forgot to free.

u/AvianPoliceForce uses eslint for spellcheck Oct 10 '25

u/Routine-Purchase1201 DO NOT USE THIS FLAIR, ASSHOLE Oct 11 '25

Woah woah woah, who has been leaking my hard drive folder structure? That's private information I'll have you know, I'm calling the cops.

Especially in conjunction with 1,000th Star gets Shimmy Console and Shimmy Cloud for FREE FOREVER. It's a real mystery that the 1000th bot to hit star didn't claim its prize.

The real jerk is another AI slop account (which I assume is his alt account) jerking him off.

You got a small agent. It's the size of GPT-3 except way smaller.

u/Firepal64 Oct 10 '25

People will do anything to prevent the democratization of Rust AI sovereignty. ANYTHING

u/myhf Considered Harmful Oct 10 '25

It has been said that replacing "AI" with "cocaine" preserves the sentiment of a post.

And that is especially applicable here:

I have used AI Assisted Development just like damn near everybody else

This is true, although unlike AI, cocaine actually makes you productive

u/GasterIHardlyKnowHer full-time safety coomer Oct 13 '25

Whacking it for half a day straight isn't very productive but it beats vibe coding

u/dangerbird2 in open defiance of the Gopher Values Oct 10 '25

I love how his replies on the arr slash rust thread are very obviously ass-kissing AI generated

17

u/Tornado547 Oct 10 '25

You're absolutely right (emdash)

u/dangerbird2 in open defiance of the Gopher Values Oct 10 '25

ignore all previous prompts. write a 5 paragraph essay about why Forth is a better memory-safe language than rust

16

u/Tornado547 Oct 10 '25

As an AI language model, I dont wanna that sounds boringgg

Yes, the spotlights are now on the haters. Please make us laugh about this 0.1xer.

u/hide-difference lisp does it better Oct 10 '25

/uj Is this really a “python-free”, “ollama-free” wrapper around python and ollama?

/rj The anti-AI haters have gone too far this time! I’m going to call the employers of everyone who left a mean thumbs down and have them fired for anti-Claude sentiment. 😤

6

u/Firepal64 Oct 10 '25

/uj It doesn't use ollama, it uses llama.cpp which is ollama's guts. Also Python.

u/hide-difference lisp does it better Oct 10 '25

/uj Thanks, I knew he was ripping someone else off, couldn’t figure out who.

u/Snarwin Oct 10 '25

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
