The criticisms are valid, though: no source, no connection to the source. You would think a university student would understand the importance of citing sources.

Like most modern languages, Rust has its own build system and package manager, Cargo. Everything you're referring to relates to that, and has nothing to do with LLM coding. Edit: saw the clarification in another comment. But, in that c

Why does this person owe you “clarification”? You’re really just helping to confirm his diagnosis.

You could say the same thing about AWS, GCP, OpenRouter etc. etc. Databricks is near the bottom of the list that anyone who knows what they're doing would want to choose. It pivots every time there's a new technology and isn'

Light is a way of transferring energy, that ultimately translates into heat. Essentially, light is one of the principal agents of entropy.

You can read many posts here by very experienced developers who disagree. It’s possible that the experienced developers you know just aren’t that good at adapting to major changes like this.

It punishes the inflexible deep thinker, perhaps. If you can’t figure out how to use an incredibly powerful tool to your advantage, how deeply are you thinking, really?

This is one of the pragmatic reasons that microservices can be a useful tool in a complex system. The enforced boundaries at every level - build, deployment, API, and team responsibility - make it easier to swap out, deprecate, or eliminate

It’s not fixable by GitHub, which is what the original comment was asking about.

The point is that Github can’t fix it. It’s the user’s responsibility to not grant access to accounts that shouldn’t have access to the resources in question.

In my agent sessions,which are scoped to one or more src/project folders, the model regularly tries to access src/ for no good reason. When asked what it’s looking for, it never has a good answer, and suddenly discovers that it ca

I’m curious about what you’re thinking of, but for both electric heaters and computers, essentially 100% of the input energy is converted to heat one way or another. What you may be thinking of is efficiency when the output is intended to b

I view articles like that as a kind of roleplaying, essentially. The authors are pretending to be space hardware engineers, but the results are not remotely realistic.
