Its hilarious to me that before AI, I would suggest we refactor our code base to make it more readable and easier to understand and would get all the excuses. "Oh we don't have the time". " we could introduce bugs". "We would need to test that"

Now when I mention to make the code easier for an LLM to understand, they're chomping at the bit for it.

Using LLMs to write code was never about making it easier. Its only about making it faster. All product teams only care about how fast you can get a product to market. Even before LLMs, that's all they cared about. That's why we have to sit through excruciating meetings playing planning poker, only to constantly remind them that two story points does not mean two days.

Edit: I knew I was going to trigger everyone by mentioning story points

Well yeah, those three fuckups were the three major updates. Its all about speed with these lunatics

Exactly. I do the same thing.

I even put bazzite with KDE on my mothers computer because she started complaining about windows being slow and seeing ads on her start menu. My mother isn't very tech saavy, but bazzite was perfect for her use case and it just works. So far no complaints at all in about 6 months.

I'm planning on changing jobs this year, and every single job employer wants to talk about LLM usage. As much as I want to refuse, Id rather say i tried it and found it to be mostly useless than say i havent even tried it at all.

Watching the terrible devs on my team just get worse faster was all i needed to see to know that avoiding it would be good for my career. With the true cost of these AI companies finally revealing itself, this summer will be very interesting

if i were in your shoes, i would put jellyfin on the machine with the fastest cpu for media transcoding. Your nas doesnt need to be the best machine, but i would make it a dedicated as a nas. Everything else can go on one machine with a good amount of ram. I would separate your homelab with your "production" server, so youre not goofing around on hardware that is hosting services you rely on. You have enough machines to setup high availability and mirror your production server it goes down.
