software

<p>Hi everyone! 👋 I know it&#x27;s been a while since I was last here, but I had a very specific reason for it. I&#x27;ve spent the last few months with my small team intensely developing a project I mentioned to you once before. Every moment of my inactivity here was simply coding, designing the architecture, and endlessly solving problems <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/heart_cybre.png" class="emoji" alt=":heart_cybre:" title=":heart_cybre:"></p><p>Today, I am proud to announce - LibreConnect has moved past the phase of vague plans and become a fully functional app! <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/flan_hurrah.png" class="emoji" alt=":flan_hurrah:" title=":flan_hurrah:"></p><p>We managed to deliver what was absolutely most important to us - an ecosystem connecting your 💻 computer and 📱 smartphone that respects your privacy 100%. Zero external clouds and hidden telemetry. Everything is based exclusively on a direct P2P connection within your local network and strong E2E encryption 🔐</p><p>So, what can our app actually do?<br>- Virtual camera and microphone from your phone <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/blobcatcamera.png" class="emoji" alt=":blobcatcamera:" title=":blobcatcamera:"><br>- Mobile device file manager right from your PC 📁<br>- Notification and clipboard synchronization 📋<br>- Receiving and sending SMS/MMS from your computer 💬<br>- Two-way media playback control 🎵<br>- Remote keyboard and presentation control from your phone <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/ablobcatbongokeyboard.gif" class="emoji" alt=":ablobcatbongokeyboard:" title=":ablobcatbongokeyboard:"><br>- Finding your phone by triggering a loud alarm (overriding silent mode) 🚨<br>- And a few other minor conveniences <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/sparkles_fiery.png" class="emoji" alt=":sparkles_fiery:" title=":sparkles_fiery:"></p><p>We also made sure the project is truly cross-platform. LibreConnect runs natively on <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/linux.png" class="emoji" alt=":linux:" title=":linux:"> Linux, <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/apple_inc.png" class="emoji" alt=":apple_inc:" title=":apple_inc:"> macOS, <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/windows.png" class="emoji" alt=":windows:" title=":windows:"> Windows, and <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/robot_3.png" class="emoji" alt=":robot_3:" title=":robot_3:"> Android. It&#x27;s worth mentioning that the app isn&#x27;t limited to just x86_64 architecture - we support ARM64 as well! To make updates easier, we&#x27;ve set up our own F-Droid repository, along with native packages for Linux package managers (APT, DNF, Pacman) <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/fdroid.png" class="emoji" alt=":fdroid:" title=":fdroid:"> <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/archlinux.png" class="emoji" alt=":archlinux:" title=":archlinux:"></p><p>The code is 100% open-source under the GNU GPL v3.0 license <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/github.png" class="emoji" alt=":github:" title=":github:"> However, I have to be honest - the project is still very young. The app is highly usable, but it still requires optimization, might have some silly bugs, and can occasionally be unstable 🐛</p><p>That&#x27;s why we need you so much right now. For the continued development of this app to make any sense, we need a small but engaged user base. I encourage you to install it, test it out, and report bugs, and for those interested - to join the project as contributors (you&#x27;ll find a CONTRIBUTING.md in the repo) 🤝</p><p>If you like our vision, leaving a star ⭐ on our GitHub repository is the form of support we would appreciate the most. It&#x27;s these stars that will allow us to take the project out into the world! Because of this, for the next few days, my activity here will focus mainly on promoting the app and its features - we need your help to build the right momentum. Thank you in advance for your support! <img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/blobheartcat.png" class="emoji" alt=":blobheartcat:" title=":blobheartcat:"></p><p>You can find all other info here:<br><img src="https://neodb.social/media/emoji/infosec.exchange/finger_point.png" class="emoji" alt=":finger_point:" title=":finger_point:"> <a href="https://libreconnect.one" rel="nofollow"><span class="invisible">https://</span>libreconnect.one</a></p><p><a href="/tags/libreconnect/" rel="tag">#LibreConnect</a> <a href="/tags/privacy/" rel="tag">#Privacy</a> <a href="/tags/privacybydesign/" rel="tag">#PrivacyByDesign</a> <a href="/tags/opensource/" rel="tag">#OpenSource</a> <a href="/tags/foss/" rel="tag">#FOSS</a> <a href="/tags/freedom/" rel="tag">#Freedom</a> <a href="/tags/software/" rel="tag">#Software</a> <a href="/tags/freesoftware/" rel="tag">#FreeSoftware</a> <a href="/tags/libre/" rel="tag">#Libre</a> <a href="/tags/bigtech/" rel="tag">#BigTech</a> <a href="/tags/tech/" rel="tag">#Tech</a> <a href="/tags/technology/" rel="tag">#Technology</a> <a href="/tags/dev/" rel="tag">#Dev</a> <a href="/tags/programming/" rel="tag">#Programming</a> <a href="/tags/code/" rel="tag">#Code</a> <a href="/tags/app/" rel="tag">#App</a> <a href="/tags/apps/" rel="tag">#Apps</a> <a href="/tags/cplusplus/" rel="tag">#CPlusPlus</a> <a href="/tags/qt/" rel="tag">#Qt</a> <a href="/tags/phone/" rel="tag">#Phone</a> <a href="/tags/pc/" rel="tag">#PC</a> <a href="/tags/computer/" rel="tag">#Computer</a> <a href="/tags/os/" rel="tag">#OS</a> <a href="/tags/operatingsystem/" rel="tag">#OperatingSystem</a> <a href="/tags/linux/" rel="tag">#Linux</a> <a href="/tags/raspberrypi/" rel="tag">#RaspberryPi</a> <a href="/tags/apple/" rel="tag">#Apple</a> <a href="/tags/mac/" rel="tag">#Mac</a> <a href="/tags/windows/" rel="tag">#Windows</a> <a href="/tags/android/" rel="tag">#Android</a> <a href="/tags/fdroid/" rel="tag">#FDroid</a> <a href="/tags/obtainium/" rel="tag">#Obtainium</a></p>

I recently reread Fred Brooks&#x27;s 1986 classic No Silver Bullet, which you can find here: <a href="https://www.cs.unc.edu/techreports/86-020.pdf" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.cs.unc.edu/techreports/86-020.pdf"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">www.cs.unc.edu/techreports/86-</span><span class="invisible">020.pdf</span></a> . I think it is useful to re-consider Brooks&#x27;s distinction between the essential complexity versus the accidental complexity of software development in light of the recent mania behind using LLMs for coding. Which of these types of complexity does LLM use address? Does it introduce more of either class of complexity?<br><br>In light of what I&#x27;ve seen, LLM use seems to provide the illusion of addressing both kinds of complexity in the short-term while it increases essential complexity in the long-term. It may or may not reduce some accidental complexity; the verdict is still out, as far as I can tell. Judging from the recent leak of the Claude Code front end source code, LLMs seem to introduce an enormous amount of new accidental complexity.<br><br>To the extent that LLMs are in the category of what Brooks calls automatic programming, this quote he shares from David Parnas is important:<br><p>Automatic programming always has been a euphemism for programming with a higher-level language than was presently available to the programmer.<br></p>The &quot;higher-level language&quot; LLMs trade in is English, which Dijkstra has strongly argued makes for a poor programming language. But even if, contra Dijkstra, it turns out LLMs somehow change that equation, we are still stuck with Brooks&#x27;s argument that higher-level programming languages largely only address accidental complexity. They do not get at the essence of what makes creating software systems difficult.<br><br>Taken together, all this seems to suggest that LLM use in coding is a net negative, and if the above is to be believed it will result in worse outcomes, not better, over the long haul. Definitely re-read Brooks and see if you agree.<br><br><a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#AI</a> <a href="/tags/genai/" rel="tag">#GenAI</a> <a href="/tags/generativeai/" rel="tag">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="/tags/agenticai/" rel="tag">#AgenticAI</a> <a href="/tags/llms/" rel="tag">#LLMs</a> <a href="/tags/claudecode/" rel="tag">#ClaudeCode</a> <a href="/tags/software/" rel="tag">#software</a> <a href="/tags/tech/" rel="tag">#tech</a> <a href="/tags/dev/" rel="tag">#dev</a> <a href="/tags/softwareengineering/" rel="tag">#SoftwareEngineering</a> <a href="/tags/softwaredevelopment/" rel="tag">#SoftwareDevelopment</a><br>
