It's going to look similar to the trend of off-shoring developer jobs to the lowest bidder over seas. I made my career cleaning up the webs of technical debt that many companies accrued. LLM code assistants in the hands of a skilled de

That doesn't make sense, and you can look at the patches and see that the Rust code didn't impact the C code. It's not like we have to take anybody's word for it. This is primarily around Rust filesystem drivers. If yo

You are aware that this administration is talking about increasing our debt by 4 trillion dollars, right?

And what if they do care, but they simultaneously need features available in multiple different forks? You can't run two kernels at the same time.

It's incredibly hard to imagine anybody cheering this on to be thoughtful or intelligent. I see no critical thinking, intellectual rigour, or even any interest in real evidence or data. In what way is any of this intelligent or thought

The problem is that they might want their drivers to actually work on people's existing Linux systems without having to force them to use a forked kernel. It's like telling people who want JPEGXL in Firefox to "just" for

I'm not a left winger, and I generally respect the police, but everybody I've met with a "thin blue line" American flag decal or sticker has been a total asshole. It's not just hatred of the police. Connotations cha

I don't know nor do I really care what other search companies are making. I pay $10/month for Kagi because it works for me and it's good. I don't even care about Kagi as a company (I don't care about any company);

I keep hearing them talking about "fraud", but I've yet to see it substantiated. Where are the reports? Where is the evidence? If we consider Musk to be an unreliable actor (I do), then I need more than his word.

That's not an edge case. Cutting services that people depend on to live will kill them. That's a guarantee.

Not without some major advancements in the technology. As good as Claude 3.5 Sonata v2 is, it still can't do more than a quarter of what I do on a day to day basis, and still makes tons of mistakes. I guess if you spin up fresh CRUD a

It's clearly not comparable, as wearing a seat belt might make you feel more safe, but it doesn't actively encourage you to pay less attention to the road by its design. The act of driving is roughly the same with or without seat

Right, but "no-code" implies something: programming without code. Excel is not that in any fashion. It's either programming with code or an ordinary spreadsheet application without code. You'd really have to stretch your

The natural conclusion I see is dropping the delusion that every human must work to live. If automation progresses to a point that machines and AI can do 99% of useful work, there's an argument to be made for letting humanity finally s
