Bitbucket is not a player, as you said there are only people leaving. Gitlab has a better enterprise posture than GitHub and can be deployed more securely. Most developers aren't unhappy with GitHub, but IT and security teams are.

Why gitlab hasn't been able to capitalize on GitHub's many failures is almost as interesting as GitHub's fall. I think the GitHub brand is still stronger and people just don't "care" about gitlab.

It's a close call - I make this based on the fact that GitHub is viewed as an anti-choice by some in the community, a huge change from the "you don't use GitHub?!?!" energy they had pre-acquisition. The MS acquisition tr

GitHub has been failing upward for more than 5 years. They could have totally dominated software development and security - failed. Could have been the undisputed champion of code hosting - failed. Should have dominated development co-pilot

I'm a big supporter of NPR but you don't need to look hard to see their progressive bias.

Perhaps, but the simplest answer is often the correct one. People are exactly who they appear to be.

They are using unofficial comms to stay off the record and unaccountable, it has nothing to do with ease of use.

Jails have been around longer, but I'm not sure how much it really matters. Jails and containers both share the kernel across workloads. A kernel exploit is generally accepted as the barrier to break out (and of course implementation b

Do you feel better about naked self interest and blatant corruption after you say that? Does it make it ok because you try to equivocate? Is it so hard to just say "corruption is bad all the time and we should not tolerate it from anyo

The trick to competing with Duolingo is to _actually_ teach people new languages that they actually learn, rather than giving away the illusion that they are learning a new language on Duolingo.

Where are the goalposts then? If the answer is always "you are prompting it wrong" then there are no goalposts for agentic development. Where is the consensus position that is demonstrably more effective than traditional developme

That's the same analogy anthropic uses to describe it.

It still smashed the bread quite a bit in the demo video, the difference wasn't super obvious until they held the loaf up. I wonder how representative that demonstration is, because the text mentions a combination of moving blade and f

Your last sentence makes me think we agree. In my experience employees perceive they have much more to lose from transparency. If they are low agency, not actively bad and defer when asked what they want, you may be surprised when they fina

You make it sound like employees are perfect and communicate transparently at all times. Many people lack the ability to be self critical and want to avoid confrontation. That often leads to surprises, a managers worst friend.

How did you get started consulting? I'm in a similar spot, been a director, don't really want to go back to it.

I agree - and also the fact that cursor even exists while Microsoft had already built copilot.

by beardedwizard 2y ago
I think I understand this comment but can you expand on how cursor defines this dilemma?

by beardedwizard 2y ago
I would definitely agree with that.

I'm sure you didn't miss the point on purpose - the parent made a silly claim implying US healthcare was uniquely bad when the truth is both approaches have huge problems. In the US you can get care any time, as long as you can af

That's great, maybe the wait times for an appointment will be 60 days instead of 6 months in some of those places.

How long will California maintain GDP dominance when major parts of business are in the pocket of Trump? Won't they just pack up and leave, tanking Californias economy with it?

I do not assume anyone is obviously wrong and prefer to ask questions. Most bugs exist in classes, and variants are something you typically consider when a bug results in a production incident. I'm not sure I read anything that makes m

Based on which claim? That 12 months from now they might accidentally discover a new bug just as serious?

Annual pen tests are great, but what are you doing to actually improve the engineering design process that failed to identify this gap? How can you possibly claim to be confident this won't happen again unless you myopically focus on t

Is this really upper management though? I see a lot of what I assume to be engineers here taking the same approach, and many projects in open source.
