Every new successful tool doesn't start by trying to meet every need or edge case. They perfect the main case, and then edge cases in priority of likelihood. Car washes are automated even though they haven't answered the edge ca

I wouldn't be so sure. I have been impressed by several things that seem to be complex but a way to be automated was found. Sure a no controlled environment is not conducive to automation, but who said a tow truck wouldn't be a pa

As someone who is not versed in real estate, I don't see why your comment and parent couldn't both be true. Is Dr Horton building homes in Austin ? Are the margins in Austin pulling down their average margin ? That could explain h

I had a legal appointment recently to update my Will, Medical Directive, etc. The lawyer had gemini opened up on the left half of her screen and the legal docs on the right, which did not instill confidence. Every time she showed lack of co

Notepad would render .md as plain text. Now it renders .md as rich text. The complaint is that people like notepad explicitly because it doesn't support rich text. I personally write pretty much everything in notepad for this very reas

I don't have a cool story about sending a letter as a kid, although I had drafted one to send to Lego, but have been on the receiving end before. My office is across the street from an elementary school that we have a relationship with

It was more likely written by a staff member who thought it would make your day, and signed by the Secretary of Defense. It is pretty neat that you got two letters though, because your letter probably got passed around and made the day of s

If you haven't seen news related to LLM generated bug reports, they are pretty disliked due to poor quality. So yes, a new LLM generated bug report era has begun, and the results so far have been moderator/developer burnout, incre

I think you are confusing bug bounty programs with espionage and cyber warfare. The USA definitely accepts vulnerabilities for any system (or at least target systems), paying good money for them if it is an attack chain, giving them that co

Before bots automated vulnerability detection for hackers trying to breach networks, honeypots were made to trap people. Just because the author of the honeytrap design was also a person doesn't invalidate that it could trap another pe

I felt like the article had a good argument for why the AI hype will similarly be unsuccessful at erasing developers. > AI changes how developers work rather than eliminating the need for their judgment. The complexity remains. Someone m

There is no economic advantage of offering lower prices in the US medical sphere, as there is no way for a patient to know that you charge less than another provider. Most medical practices do not provide any form of costs until after a pro
