There are a lot of articles about this. Anecdotally we all used it at my place of work, but once the novelty of it wore off, and it's usefulness sorely lacked, most people have gone back to google. Completely anecdotal as I mentioned,

Is it? I'm not on Twitter and I'm Danish so I'm not really caught up on American identity politics, outside of what you hear online, but is that really revealing any bias of that sort? It sounds like someone who has a dislike

I think it's hard to compare the two because of how you approach them. We dismiss the co-pilot suggestions a lot, but it's not like we get the same amount of suggestions from chatGPT because you more actively have to seek it out.

In my anecdotal experience it's been sort of terrible from the start. In my first interaction with it, it suggested that I use a library that had been deprecated for a few years, which is when I found out it's data cut-off point w

Isn't the title here on HN a little misleading considering it's: "F-35A is HX – The Winner Takes It All" on the site itself? Or that the article never really delves too hard into the Finnish procurement process, outside

I genuinely find ChatGPT very useful for a lot of tedious tasks, but it's also very obvious that it's data cutoff point was in 2021. You can get it to write you an abstract generic Odata controller class in C# better than most sea

What? Seems perfectly fine? I know interactive "one-step-at-a-time" signup forms may not be popular among the HN crowd, but let me tell you, they sure are wonderful in non-tech enterprise. At least in my experience. I guess you co

ActivityPub is sort of the protocol though. Mastodon is just the platform incorporating it that is becoming the twitter replacement. Maybe not for everything, but programming andtechwise my mastodon feed sure is more interesting than any of

I would never take a job at a place that wants you to be on camera while you're just working. I mean, that's an insane amount of survailance. On the flipside, I do tend to turn my camera on during meetings. If I'm not at my c

As long as luxottica has a monopoly on glass for glasses (is that the correct english word? Is it lens?) I doubt we're going to see too much improvement in the wear-down. Maybe that's pessimistic of me, but there really hasn'

I don't think there is a difference. I also think this is part of the reason why so many companies now don't have an Ops department. My own is an example of this, we've outsourced the Operations part to another company becaus

I wonder if it played a part in Microsofts purchase of Github. When you look at things like code spaces, co-pilot and how VSC can now work directly on Github/Azure repositories without moving the code to "your machine", it se

I'm not the person you ask, but we use fullstack Typescript in our dev department. We're a weird mix of a green energy company and an investment bank, so inhouse development is very small-scale, and this means you share resources.

I suspect some car companies may be. I'm not completely sure but I think we had to allow Skoda to track us when we paid them to turn on the Apple connection stuff in the car. I'm sorry I can't be more specific or technical th
