This was the case in Belgium a couple of years ago. Everybody had to go to a store and have their ID read by the system, and if they didn't, the phone number would be shut down. Unsure how that worked for MVNOs though. Now I live in th

> You can lead the engineering, and guide the LLM to generate small snippets at a time. Yes, yes you can, but you can't force the LLM user to _understand_ your feedback so that they reduce the burden on you, as the reviewer.

My iPhone knows the forecast for today. I installed iOS 27 yesterday. I asked it: please notify me when the temperature goes above 80F (so I can close the windows). Siri responded: it'll be 99F today in Phoenix. ...

I use AI every day. And I am absolutely sick of having to justify my job against people who feel they can now vibecode an application without understanding the code. Kinda like how someone thinks they can build a house without understanding

You can use LLMs in multiple ways, from very hands on to make local changes to completely hands-off. I've seen plenty of code that was LLM generated but the commit message itself did not have the co-author attached to it. This only see

In Rust there is the same problem. The `url::Url` library does not support `%<zone_id>`. `http::Uri` does, and it accepts both `%` and `%25`. https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&editio...

I disagree. At a certain moment you start to rely on behavior, knowingly or unknowingly. These kind of changes might surface bugs that you never had. https://xkcd.com/1172/

Because companies are betting that this spending will allow them to reduce cost by firing people. Right now the AI LLM PRs we're seeing are just introducing more work for other people, while these so-called builders are looking good wi

This takes place in Belgium: This reminds me of a time in high-school when I was ~12 and I learned that in the USA they were allowed to have brands in school books, like John buys 12 can of Pepsi, drinks 1 bottle, gives 3 away, how many doe

They're supposed to introduce a setting that allow you to disable these promotional pop-ups. But many apps don't, and Apple doesn't seem to enforce it. It should be an iOS level flip: no promotional messages.

The dependency file is more important for a library and less for an application. For a library, the dependency file (Cargo.toml, package.json, ...) defines the lowest version and its constraints of the library's dependencies when using

I have it turned off for my bank. For some reason Bank of America doesn't allow me to sign in with Face ID. I always need to get a text. Only reason I keep them is because I like a brick and mortar bank nearby.

Both Hitman and Splinter Cell both gained one of those limited-use mechanics to walk by someone and you could press a button and they wouldn't spot you. Completely ruined the immersion for me. Edit: In Hitman it was called Blend In, an

Do you have the REX and are you in the USA? If so, with an app you can remove the gas-tank restriction and add the ability to maintain charge instead of only turning it on when below 30%.

Problem is that those 20% depend on the code reviews of the 80% for some form of pushback.

I live in Phoenix. In summer AC is set to 84F, and in winter we heat to 78F. Humidity does a lot. As I've posted before: 115C with 10% humidity (71.66F wet bulb) here is hot, but as long as you have water, you're better off here t
