We recently released REAPER v7.66, which is slightly interesting in that there was a small bit of LLM-assisted programming in there.

I'm not a fan of LLMs, but I do think what they can do is pretty amazing. Whether it is worth the cost, I have doubts.

Previously, on askjf:

Question: Have you tried Claude Code (CLI or VSC ext)? Opus 4.5 is *really good* (could be useful for tedius/boring tasks)
I haven't. tedious/boring things are good for you. either you figure out ways to speed them up (scripts to accomplish repetitive tasks), or you get the practice in doing these things, improving your skills. You train for marathons by putting in lots of easy miles along with your speedwork. The biggest win of LLMs IMO is discovery of poorly documented things.

...later on...


Question: I saw people pressing you here about supporting new versions of ffmpeg, and you replied it was a pain to do because of their constantly changing API. I just saw that you have done it. Well done! Was it a pain while doing it or it was not as painful as you envisioned??? Also, wouldn't their continous changing of API cause same issue again of latest version not being supported?

Turns out, this is was a task that an LLM could assist on.

Comment: What happened to tedious / boring things being good for you? ;-)

(lol)

My current thoughts:

• LLMs are great as a discovery tool for programming. Google has gone to shit, API documentation is terrible, it's really hard to find answers. LLMs end up indexing a lot of content that would be really hard to find otherwise.
• You can have high quality code produced by an LLM, but it will almost certainly take a ton of work by the human, unless you happen to be writing something that has been totally done before, in which case it will probably just rip that off.
• The better LLMs get at writing code, the more consolidation of wealth will occur, as independent software vendors will not be able to compete with the multinational megacorporations that control all of our infrastructure (read that essay). This will be a very not good thing. :/

My recent experiences, using Claude Opus 4.6, mostly via Claude Code:

• Updating REAPER's FFmpeg loading code. Up until v7.66, we supported FFmpeg v2.8/3.x/4.x. Every new major release of FFmpeg has subtle API changes. Navigating through all of those changes is a pain. I gave Claude Code our FFmpeg-loading code, and very little else, and asked it to support newer FFmpeg versions. It added support for 5.x, 6.x, and 7.x (it wasn't aware of 8.x as I guess it was trained before it was released). It pretty much succeeded; a few little tweaks were necessary, there were a couple of small errors, and it produced some preprocessor logic that was so incomprehensible it took me an hour to untangle. And I had to update it to support 8.x... butit still probably saved me a great deal of time (at least a few hours of very frustrating digging through headers and git histories).
• Updating FFmpeg support to support hardware encoders - it pretty much nailed this one, adding the necessary code which seemed to work.
• Updating our VLC loading code to support AV1 decoding. In this case I gave it only a few files relating to the VLC library loading. It gave me a working implementation, though it added approx 50 lines of code, which after reviewing, was mostly unnecessary, and I determined it would only take changing a few lines to support it properly. Still, super helpful.
• (this one hasn't been released yet) -- figuring out how to get consistent text rendering via CoreText on macOS vs win32. Initially the LLM gave me multiple solutions which were completely wrong (LOGFONT's lfHeight should be at 72DPI for macOS and 96DPI for win32, convert that way...), but there were kernels of things in there that were helpful (e.g. suggested ways of going from a positive LOGFONT's lfHeight to point size). I ended up getting something that almost worked, but I noticed that CoreText was returning obviously incorrect font metrics (particularly the internal leading). Once I pointed this out to the LLM, it suggested querying the OS/2 font table for the font (via a CoreText API I had no idea existed), and extracting the metrics from that. It produced code that almost worked, and from that, I managed to put all of the pieces together.

In all of these, I probably could have iterated with the LLM to get it to do more of the work. I'm not sure what time it would have saved, and even if it did save time, I don't think I would walk away from the experience with the same level of understanding I've attained going this route.

Based on that -- if you're vibe coding, right on. Enjoy it while you can potentially profit from it. Try to learn from it. If LLMs end up as master programmers, then the billionaires of today will be even richer (ripping off anything useful by burning tokens and then forcefeeding it to the world), and the rest of us, we'll just get the scraps.

ownership society revisited

To follow up on the previous post about our forums and getting scraped by bots, I enabled some statistics in our human-authentication system for the forum. In the last 18 hours, we have seen requests from about 300,000 IPs, of which about 5,000 (approx 1.5%) successfully verified themselves as human.

Of the 295,000 IPs that did not verify themselves as human, about 15,000 were poorly behaved, so much so that they triggered our log-analysis-ban system.

The remaining 280,000 IPs each behaved relatively fine, each doing occasional requests more or less mimicking the usage patterns of a user. There are two problems it caused for us, though:

1. they often would request pages that are expensive to generate (page 90 of our member list, e.g., which vbulletin has to go and sort/generate then skip 89 pages of the results)
2. there are 280,000 of them

If we had 280,000 simultaneous legitimate users on our forum, we would have similar problems, though in that situation we could justify spending a lot more on the infrastructure to support our userbase. Moderating such a place would be an impossible nightmare, too.

In short, to use a metaphor, the modern internet (LLM-scraping-bots) will effectively kill a forum like ours with a million tiny papercuts (if allowed).

Well I didn't update for a while. Lost a ton of music related stuff (instruments, etc) due to a fire, that sucked. Will write more about that at some point, maybe, though also maybe will try to forget heh.

What I'm really posting here is to claim a momentary victory (it won't last long no doubt) against the hoards of scrapers effectively DDoSing web sites out there. Our forums would have 100,000+ "guest" users "browsing," causing all kinds of performance issues. Last night and today, added some stuff requiring some computation via javascript and a little bit of user interaction to authenticate the guest user as not-a-bot, and now we have a few hundred. What a mess the internet is. :/ Sigh.

Update Jan 2:
There are (currently) four layers of scraper/bot/ddos mitigations we are using:

• the latest - when an IP which is not already logged in makes a request, it is checked against a local temporary database. if it has not recently been verified it is verified, by serving a page with some javascript that does some brute force computations, and requires a little bit of human interaction (changing the state of some UI in such a way that a human would). once these are complete, it sends an AJAX request to the server, which quickly validates the results, and if it passes, updates that temp database. the page then refreshes itself to the updated version. Before this change, we'd often see more than 100,000 IPs over the course of a day request pages, often just one or two, each time creating a session which our database would track, etc. Now it's down to a more reasonable 1,000-2,000.
• every minute or two, we run a script that analyzes the last few minutes of apache logs to detect likely scrapers. it looks at the patterns of their requests, and updates a .htaccess file with rewritecond lines to match them and redirect them to a 529 page which tells them to chill. This sometimes causes false positives, when people reopen their browser sessions of like 50 windows on the forum.
• (also recent) - if a non-logged in user requests various obscure pages, e.g. our member list, we refuse. most non-logged-in users would never do this, and they end up being quite a lot of cpu load. so an easy win. maybe good for the privacy of our users, too?
• sometimes scrapers fill up all of our server slots. even when serving them cheap pages, they can still end up holding a precious slot for a few seconds. often they'll keepalive more requests, too. so when we find this happens, we run a script which identifies /24 subnets that are the worst offenders, then adds them to an ipset which we then blackhole. I sometimes spot check these with whois to make sure they are cloud providers. When we see 50+ IPs in a /24 (254 addresses) which are all doing a lot of requests, you're probably a cloud provider (if our forum had a much, much larger audience, then that might be more plausible).

anyway that's the current state of trying to run a forum with 280,000 threads and a few million posts these days. I'm sure it won't last, they will start defeating our countermeasures and we'll have to escalate them. I really do hate requiring JavaScript, some people don't want to do that. sigh.

TIL the default Apache Timeout is set to 300s, which is a long ass time, especially when dealing with crawlers that sometimes leave their connections open after their request. And they'll fill up the default 256 connection slots pretty fast, making things slow as shit. 10 or 15 is probably plenty.

I've been toying with a definition of measuring how meaningful something is artistically. First, Newton's Third Law:

"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

The act of making art changes us -- the neural connections of our brains are changed by the process.

That magnitude of change is reflected in the significance of the art. The change in our brains might be from a moment or from a lifetime of effort, but without the creative process, it is not art.

You could extrapolate, then, what it means (or doesn't mean) to have art generated by machines. David Byrne said something in American Utopia about how other humans are the most interesting thing to look at. So it makes sense to me that looking at the reflection of their changing brains would be meaningful.

The project I started something like 21 years ago, Jesusonic, which became REAPER's JSFX, is now open source -- the real way, LGPL licensed.

So if you want to extend it within REAPER, you can, or if you want to make your software support it, you can, etc. It also includes the source to the ReaJS VST, though you'll need the VST2 SDK (or equivalent) to compile that.

I've cleaned it up a bit over the last few years in preparation for this, but there's still a lot of cruft, the mess I made in my youth.

It might be nice to also release the original text-mode UI, but really who wants to use that? and I'd have to dig it out of my git history, I've long since rm'd those files...

Just cleaning up various cruft, was removing old useless projects from our main git repos, here's one that I've put on github to preserve: hoboprox. That was useful, for a while!
