Ah I appreciate the answer — I'll do that next time. Thank you for moderating btw, you've been doing a great job!

This was the farthest humans ever travelled from earth, even farther than apollo 13. Intuitively the farther you go the higher the risks are

@dang is it something on your radar? Lots of people do this on Reddit and it makes some threads unusable.

Sorry I didn't see your reply, what was it about?

You must be German — the French state is a lot more top down than Germany with its regions, so generally these kinds of mandates get applied broadly

It really depends, support is usually the first thing companies adjust when they want to improve their margins. Even when you're paying millions to AWS you have to get through their first line of support and they will ask silly questio

Well the people who get laid off also have feelings, not sure why we should care more about the ceo's feelings so much that we shouldn't criticize them

Canada has the same rates of gun ownership as America and you don't see cops come up with guns blazing like they do here

> I'm not even looking very hard but have had 4 interviews in the last month. Did you get any offers yet? It seems the issue is not lack of interviews but lack of offers. Many companies are looking for a goldilocks candidate and are

Sorry I'm not sure I understand your point

I mean it's a repo with 1 very active contributor ( https://github.com/blacksky-algorithms/rsky/graphs/contribut... ), I get that they decided to skip on that

Not really? Iirc `HttpUrlConnection` has been around since the 90s?

Well, gmail does not manage usenet groups and mailing lists. Delivery status notifications are considered best effort so it wouldn't make sense to block messages for that case. Additionally, Gmail adds its own message identifier on eve

How is not having a message-id a security risk? It seems that Gmail is being pedantic for no reason

I mean your argument is basically saying "in the future Linux will have ads, there's a race to the bottom with operating systems, just look at windows". Tough to justify this train of thought with open weight models

Presumably sharding is a lot easier than trying to debug lockups in individual postgres thread? It's well known, we've been doing it for at least 30+ years as an industry.

I'm a bit confused here, do they have a single database they're writing to? Wouldn't it be easier and more reliable to shard the data per customer?

The best products like Microsoft Teams? Let's be honest, a lot of the software they've replaced has a checkered past

by atherton94027 8mo ago
Yeah I agree with you on that, I'm just curious about the systems programming use case as in my experience you have to think deep about interactions and working with an agent blunts that

Curious, could you give examples of how you've been able to double your productivity with AI?

What would they be giving up? DoorDash? By most aspects the world of 1990 didn't change that much from today's world, with the exception of having computers in our pockets and some advances in medicine.

Yeah I mean I could also say "there are no CVEs written in PERL in the kernel ergo PERL is safer to write than Rust". Given there's close to zero .pl files in the kernel, I think we can all agree my assertion holds

Are these proprietary drivers owned by American or Asian companies? There are many alternatives to Qualcomm nowadays

But you need to control for lines of code at the very least — otherwise you're comparing apples to oranges

86 race conditions compared to what baseline? This is a bit meaningless without benchmarking against other kernels

Sure this could happen but that seems like a very last resort. The only reason the US economy is still competitive is tech stocks so cutting off ~35% of your income seem like it would cause a lot of downstream effects
