Well, yeah, but they do help. I had a bad case of bronchitis recently and the only way I was able to get to sleep was taking OTC ibuprofen.

Eh, I kind of disagree. Contributing until you hit the maximum employer match makes the most sense for quality of life.

>he passed it through AI before handing it over to the other department I think you should throw him under the bus for that.

It seems the biggest hurdle to IPv6 adoption is legacy software and hardware. Anything new that gets built can easily be v6 only.

Agreed, and something will go wrong (as every junior has experienced). You cannot lay blame on the AI when git blame shows your name.

Why not just use the GPL? It basically covers the same stuff Creative Commons Share-alike does.

I mean, this is just a one-time pad and I'm sure a court could compel your friend to give up the data.

If a state environmental agency asks you for your location on photos that you volunteered to upload and you freak out, you might be mentally ill.

Yeah I don't get why people don't understand this- there is not enough gold to base the entire global economy on it.

Agreed, pensions are obviously better but the private sector collectively decided not to have them much anymore.

There is a definite disconnect, I cannot think of ANY scenario in which I (as a developer and power user) would want the Start menu to search the internet.

Anyone else feel like bloat is usually not an algorithmic problem, but rather a library or environment issue most of the time?

Wanted to chime in that, at my job, hand-writing code has been massively helpful when debugging it. My mental model of what can go wrong is much easier to form if I wrote the code. A LLM will not always be able to solve these incidents, no

For sure, there are a bunch of cases of agents deleting files, leaking secrets, and wiping databases even when told not to.

Feels terrible to be an American rn, I'm preparing for major errors and delays in the processing of my tax return.

Unfortunately it seems like no one does their due diligence any more. I recall a journalism class I took 10 years ago in undergrad that emphasized sources need to be vetted, have sufficient age, credentials, and any bias be identified. Nowa

Personally I like that it's secure by default.

I'm tired of the hype too. Yes, coding agents are useful but the bubble seems primed to pop. Agents are not profitable enough to justify the billions of investments in data centers and chips.

The fact that 996 is coming to America is an ill omen for worker's rights and, well, society in general IMO.

I disagree, the only real issue with UBI is the amount of inflation it will cause. Germany has something nearly approaching UBI and they are doing fine.

Would Syncthing fulfill your requirements?

I think it's a good comment, given that the best agents seem to hallucinate something like 10% on a simple task and more than 70% on complex ones.

Probably something blue collar like electrician, plumbing or auto repair.

Nah it's very apt and perfectly encapsulates output that looks plausible but is in fact factually incorrect or made up.

Also just peacocking, being that skid on the forums that took down PlayStation on Christmas will get you cred.

It's funny to think that the C-suite would ever give up their massive compensation packages.
