I’d put my money on yes, but at a far lower risk than smoking.

No commits to the repo for 3 months, doesn’t invoke confidence..

They are outliers. Most startups focus on feature velocity and sales first, quality is an afterthought, regardless of what they might say. Also, if your project is open source, quality has a lot more weight towards uptake.

I’d bet money on people (here) using tools like this to process millions of records or more. It’s a sad truth those people won’t have jobs in a few years when AI, which will know better, takes hold :(

Because then you’re training it on data that is more similar to the operating environment for the application. It’s a better fit for purpose. If the target environment was a clean audio signal, you’d optimise for that instead.

“probably”? I mean, yes it’s a tech company, but it’s a bit surprising anyone would expect it to be much more than 50% engineering. Marketing and customer support alone would have a huge headcount - and given the impact AI tech is having on

Oh please, this is not how things will play out. Artists and content creators will be forced to move to more walled gardens to protect their creative rights. The warnings have been known for decades, nobody listened and now those bills are

As if semantics are a significant productivity factor, get off ya high horse.

You can probably thank Linus for that.. https://linuxreviews.org/WE_DO_NOT_BREAK_USERSPACE

Seems like this was all possible 10+ years ago with existing APIs at that time. I don’t see what’s so special tbh.

Ironically, anti-aging treatment would likely make people less grumpy and reduce load on healthcare. Doesn’t address the wealth inequality issue though, which is suspect is your main gripe.

I hear you, but windows seems like a black box in a lot of ways. I don’t have any trust that what it tells me about running processes is accurate. Under Linux I feel like I am actually in control of the machine on a much greater scale. And

So.. have we become used to the “computer software” bit or the “bringing us all down” bit?

Ummm.. this is pretty basic stuff. If you don’t know this, you probably shouldn’t be claiming to be a c++ developer.

Indeed. I’m struggling to see how AI here is superior to simple subdomain enumeration and tech fingerprinting.

Bravo. Freedom is not taken with a booming voice but a tide of whispers.

That contract was signed under duress in the form of survival. There was never a choice.

Same, been doing this for many years and upgrade frequently.

I welcome this change, greatly. The world of software engineering is an awful shitshow of cowboys, vulnerabilities, amateurism and mud balls. The metaphorical well barely contains any water, it’s almost entirely piss. It’s disgusting and re

I guess that depends if you want to do 11% more work, and probably the tedious stuff.

It’s the same amount of code smh.

Why did they shift away from Ada? It seems Boeing’s avionics systems had far fewer incidents before they started adopting other languages.

It’s like saying you can drink a milkshake using your mouth or your nose. Sure, both work, but..

The government must never, in good conscience, open up the use of extremely physically addictive substances. Decriminalisation for users, I can support, but legalising and selling is a terrible idea. Alcohol, tobacco and marijuana are not i

He’s clearly suffering from some kind of mental oddity. Just let him do his thing. There’s still some insight to be found.

Bingo. This is why it’s worth paying for. It’s more akin to paying for insurance than paying for software.

It’s hilarious and embarrassing. It would be nice to see some interest in diversifying the economy over here, but I’m not going to hold my breath.
