Could be a lie ? When are we going to stop pretending?

I'm assuming you delegate for most of your bugs? I only ask when I'm stumped and at that point it's very prone to generating false positives.

Are you implying that there are people who don't have ideology or that they're somehow capable of reasoning and acting independently of their ideology?

This is no different than when LLMs write code. In both scenarios they often turn into bullshit factories that are capable, willing, and happy to write pages and pages of intricate, convincing-sounding explanations for bugs that don't

Is it that bad out there? Yeah, I don't think I could last in a job that tries to force these tools into my workflow.

It's not that bad, my battery lasts around 36 hours. I take it off when I go to shower and by the time I remember to put it back on (~30min) it's usually back to 90%+.

We're not discussing whether policies are good or bad, just where they happen to sit on the political spectrum. If you feel like something material is missing, add it, I can't read your mind.

These are your personal preferences, not some "social contract". I'm completely fine with people interrupting me to correct something I said or to add an important detail I missed, and I tend to do the same. To see slightly d

They call that the geometric racing line and it might minimize the amount of time that it takes you to navigate one specific corner but if the corner is a hard braking zone followed by a long straight, your exit speed will likely be lower w

Yeah, technically your phone isn't even involved. The watch manages all the cryptographic keys independently and you can add cards through the Google Wallet app or website.

Clearly it's harder but just how much harder is anyone's guess? Surely higher value targets would be more likely to use Graphene, so I would think that would make it just as important to invest resources into.

This folk-wisdom scapegoating of post-install scripts needs to stop or people are going to get really hurt by the false sense of security it's creating. I can see the reasoning behind this, I really do, it sounds convincing but it&#x

Both post-install scripts and curl|bash scripts are just scapegoats of supply chain security with similar faulty reasoning.
