No one made that claim. That is a strawman argument.

The USDA reported $43 million in SNAP fraud in 2024... of a $118 billion budget. I would like to see what source or comparison you used to determine that was one of the "most fraud areas of society".

If a legal activity is heavily overrepresented by financial crime, as crypto is, it would be incredibly irresponsible not to take action from a regulatory level. A full-stop is surely overboard, but a pause on business related to this activ

I am not a medical professional, so take this opinion with a grain of salt, but it seems like it should theoretically be possible to test for a concentration of misfolded proteins that propagate themselves. How complex or expensive this cou

If OCR is a solution designed to recognize documents and it does not recognize all documents, then it is an imperfect solution. That is not to say there is a perfect solution, but it is still the fault of the solution.

That was my knee-jerk scenario to think of too - especially given the rising prevalence of Chronic Wasting Disease in the US states near that part of Canada. It's notable that the CJDSS director said they ruled out "known forms of

I think this is one of the few functional applications of LLMs that is really undeniably useful. OCR has always been “untrustworthy” (as in you cannot expect it to be 100% correct and know you must account for that) and we have long used ML

I have never really thought about it that way, but you're right. Ultimately what matters is the final changeset. How you get there doesn't really matter.

How about 30-40 of them at the same time, while sending off video to be rendered by the GPU, tracking as many entities positions 60x per second and more?

As someone who's spent 12 years working on legacy codebases, I strongly disagree with this. Iterative work in a large legacy codebase is how you end up making your large legacy codebase larger and even less understood. Your planning sh

For the most part, I agree with a lot of this, but there were a couple points I raised an eyebrow on. > There is no pride in managing or understanding complexity To the point that intentionally creating complexity or allowing it to conti

How I use LLMs as a senior engineer: 1. Try to write some code 2. Wonder why my IDE is providing irrelevant, confusing and obnoxious suggestions 3. Realize the AI completion plugin somehow turned itself back on 4. Turn it off 5. Do my job b

It's not relevant here, because this is a post from someone who worked on copilot. It's a shady sales pitch, disguised as an engineer's honest opinion.

Please read more about a subject before making asinine generalizations. There were many steps between "imagined" and "accepted".

There should be a registry key or GPO setting to override this called “EnableOOBE” or something similar.

Why would there be a strong engineering culture behind AAA video games at all? Game developers are underpaid, overworked and constantly told they can be replaced at a moments notice. I wouldn't expect anything but code that "ships

That is really cool and deserves the descriptor "brain-like", thank you for answering my questions!

My ethics are “this is unequivocally wrong without consent”. Thankfully my work was on payment products that serviced businesses and government entities, so I did not really have to deal with that moral quandary. However it gets muddier in

s/Encryption/Security Roll-your-own cryptography is definitely the worst of it, but even developers that use strong crypto libraries end up misusing them quite often. I have worked on a lot of custom made web software, and I cou

Is this "brain-like" in any functional way, or "brain-like" in the same way that a tall rectangle is "door-like" even if it doesn't share any functions with a door? I know quite a bit about machine learnin

I'm not a collector, but my understanding was that the point of grading a card was to have a verified, objective rating of the card's condition. If grading is subjective, then I don't see the value of the process and would co

I feel exactly the same about it. SublimeText is where I go to take some notes I want to write unformatted, or with some markdown. It's where I go to paste some blob of JSON or logs from a random command that I want to parse out into s
