We got exactly this problem on my previous job: split #thispopularhastag into words it combined from.

But... That means that their workers would constantly poll Postgres server instead of push mechanism of AMQT, aren't they? Also, problem described seems like a logical error. Worker shouldn't ack the job before finishing it.

How do you ensure fault tolerance on SQLite?

> One of our team members has gotten into the habit of pointing out that “you can do this in Postgres” Actually, using Postgres stored procedures they can do anything in Postgres. I am quite sure they can rewrite their entire product usi

On the other hand, we will see a sharp decline in human-driven cars on the streets. Who would do it themself anyway? At every moment we will have on the streets exactly the number of cars to serve current demand. They will not clog curb par

This choice would be even harder, given that the US and the rest of the West are not recognizing Taiwan as an independent state. FWIW, Kosovo seems like a totally legit state compared to Taiwan.

Do you even understand that this is the US who started this trade war?

It looks and feels awesome. Then I get to GitHub repo. Isn't JavaScript deprecated and should be replaced with TypeScript wherever it possible?

I see a lot, and I mean A LOT of people, including several of my friends, using mobile phones or tablets to show their 1-5 years old children animation videos to make them busy and stop whining while adults are doing or minding their own ad

This is mostly the question of tastes. I lived in Sofia for two months, mostly in the city center. For me an international mobility is important and I don't drive, so the well connected airport and good means of transportation towards

By "driving", you mean "helps create inequality", right? But inequality is already there. Someone now pays that high rent already; otherwise, landlords would lower prices to avoid empty units. You are competing with many

This is because OpenAI already knows your name and a lot more about you.

I wonder what jury-rigged solution may lead to breaking into 5M limit? I can't believe it was just digital hoarding. In the end, hoarders know better to keep things in zip-archives.

The original question was "Why are developers expected to estimate tasks at all?" @benjaminwootton gave perfectly sane answer to that question. HOW developers should make their estimation is a totally different question, but it is

To the alarmists here: just look up the internet for "voice cloning ML". There are lilerally YouTube tutorials on it. Stop being luddits, you cannot stop the progress.

Great product, giving it a try. Here you saying that 20 seconds is enough, and on a "clone" page there is an instruction about 30 minutes for better result. Is there any kind of instruction about how to create a good sample of the

There's a rule for Windows versions: you should skip every second one. So the right sequence is: install Windows 95 skip Windows 98 install Windows 2000 skip Windows ME install Windows XP skip Windows Vista install Windows 7 skip Windo

It is okay to be loyal to anyone or anything as far as that loyalty is rewarded. Yes, any manager would be more willing to put extra burden to loyal workers, but if at the same time they are equally willing to give those workers a raise or

There really was a period in mu life, when I was taking out my phone and fiddled with it during social events. But as most of bad habits it could be corrected by first being aware of it, then noticing it, and then stopping doing it after I

That is actually a good example. How long will it take for future engineers to blindly trust neural networks with only brief fact checking in the same tab? How much damage will it bring to the humanity? How to mitigate those risks without b

Wolframe's piece was specifically written to be as understandable as possible. No tech documentation were written with this intent in mind, or at least I don't know any.

Pdf is a very unfortunate format. It is proprietary, it is paper-oriented, its almost single goal is to keep precise printing layout. But for the last 30 years world didn't come up with anything that could compete.

50% is an equivalent of a coin toss. We, of course, need an ML-powered tool to identify ML-generated digital junk.

I have a "Generate... -> Test for function" in my JetBrais IDE out of the box for several years, and it takes care of boilerplate pretty well.

We already had several tectonic shifts in software engineering in the last ~50 years, and there was never a consequential redice if engineering workforce, only otherwise.
