I think I disagree with the premise. If the assertion is, I want to use non-LLM methods to maintain LLM-generated code, then I agree, there is a looming problem. The solution to making LLM-generated code maintainable involves: 1) Using good

The man who just instituted a policy requiring companies to pay $100k per H1-B visa? Maybe US voters aren’t so stupid after all.

Good for you. There are a lot of automation use cases for SSH where connection setup time is a significant impediment; if you’re making dozens or hundreds of connections to hundreds or thousands of hosts, those seconds add up.

I think that if Azure offers their service in Israel it has to comply with Israeli law; I don’t see why that would not govern in this case. If Azure were providing service to the US Government then that service would be governed by US law e

I think Cloud providers should be common carriers. I don’t think that it is a good thing when a company can make an arbitrary decision and disable functionality that you have put millions of dollars and thousands or tens of thousands of pe

I wonder if there are going to be any consequences for the execs who pushed for, or at least green-lit, the decisions to operate Prime that way. Nah, jk. Of course not.

I apologize; I misunderstood. I thought you were making a “fend for yourself” argument; I was not associating “junior devs on the team making the docs, need to fix docs or make good ones”.

I have been using ROT13, but I’ve been looking for a post-quantum replacement so definitely I’m going to convert to SCREAM. It’s generally understood that qubits are unable to represent or even discern the little squiggly bits above normal

It is incredibly clear in US Federal law that the ONlY court with jurisdiction in a contract dispute with the federal government is the Court of Federal Claims. literally it would be breaking the law for this judge to adjudicate this case

I specifically didn't discuss GovCloud or classified regions or other AWS specific stuff because because the original article was not clear about what "private AWS cloud" meant in terms of the SSA. You're leaping to the

You are just plain wrong about Congress and about the executive branch, but spot on about the president. The president’s job is to execute the laws of the US, and is laid out clearly in article 2 of the constitution. I’ll go one further, it

Excel absolutely can open csv files with a double click if you associate the file type extension.

by efitz 1y ago
I don’t think I ever heard anyone say “csv is dead”. Smart people (that have been burned once too many times) put quotes around fields in csv if they aren’t 100% positive the field will be comma-free, and escape quotes in such fields.

Android has always felt like a computer to me- too many customizations; too many technical decisions I have to make, too complicated. I can see why many people would like that; I don’t. This is a very subtle point to try and get across, b

This comment is bizarre. Literally nothing about this policy change destroys the US or any principle outlined in the Constitution. It removes a convenience that was sometimes abused (see the top post) and makes it harder to bypass US law t
