You can also use Julia. It is both easy for humans to write and read and for AI to generate because of the sane and powerful type system. However, I expect that in the future some new language will take this role of dual use.

Yes, and it's already in many places where possible, e.g. taxi, airlines, online stores and services, insurance, health, etc.

Trump is a demented alpha male that currently runs a circus too. This is what really poorly understood.

The world runs on legacy software, which simply has no budget for even asking LLMs to find vuls, not to mention fixing them. While you are right that it should favor the defenders, in practice, this is a disaster because, in many critical c

I'm also sure that someone at Google do care about those. It is strange to see a blog post targeting cryptocurrencies while it is certainly a specific case of a much larger problem.

Why do they care about cryptocurrencies but not about the entire world's infrastructures that are based on RSA and elliptic curve algorithms, such as HTTPS and many other electronic signature solutions? Is this a case of cryptocurrency

That's the default option. Power seeks only more power, sharing is worthless to it, except as a temporary instrument. And AI is a perfect tool to concentrate even more power in tiny hands.

Use nix.optimise.automatic = true in the config and perform nix-collect-garbage if necessary. With this it doesn't take much.

Yes, and BTW this problem is another proof that crypto doesn't solve any of the real world issues apart from avoiding (very natural) institutional regulations.

I would say it is natural that humans with so much power go crazy. What is not natural is allowing them to have that power in the first place. If a society allows that, it deserves anything that could happen to it, whether it's Armaged

There is no reason to do it on a CPU instead of a GPU. Anyway, a vector database would be a better solution, although not without downsides.

Cluster environment with virtualized cores may cause slower performance of Julia's parallel code. People recommend Threadpinnig.jl to solve the issues.

It's easy to add, yes. However, the basic @time macro outputs the info about allocations by default. So it is also easy to see if there is a problem.

Yeah, Julia's REPL deserves special attention as it allows to do the package management (by pressing "]"), look for the functions help ("?") and do shell operations (";") without leaving it.

Julia is not an alternative to Go. It is the alternative to Python (slow) and to C++ (hard and complex). Go is fast and simple but doesn't have abstractions to create complex code required by math libraries.

For newcomers my main tip is to use views for array slices (for example, via the @view and @views macros), since by default Julia creates copies of slices. Broadcast operation (the dot syntax) is another super useful instrument for speeding

Yeah, the title may suggest that productivity is still 10% out of 100% after CEOs fired half of developers believing that the rest will do all the job with the help of AI.
