Is search, even legacy search like a table of contents or the Dewey decimal system not useful? It may not point you to what you want either. LLMs are an ok iteration on search with up and downsides. One of the upsides is better contextual h

The killer feature of this and like 90% of apps in this market capture model is laziness. They realize if you can make something easy for someone they will do it even if it’s not quite what they want. Users want good fresh food delivered at

We use projen where I work for the past year or so for new projects. It’s pretty good and the devs are pretty active in terms of responding to bugs and not being shit at documentation.

This is very close I think. In a way it is a business crisis, in that business directs software engineering not science or academia nor some physical constraint. A real estate developer would probably promise you a ten story building made o

I don't really use Pulsar as its heavy weight. But I'm glad for every legit open source project that pushes editing forward be it NeoVim, Emacs etc. The mono culture of do everything in vsCode under MS's thumb is not a great

I interviewed for a role at FedEx about two years ago. It was absolutely the most confusing and just junk process although blessedly I did not have to take this personality test. I ended up bailing out of the process mostly in confusion.

It's actually worse. I read this as Russia accidentally hits civilians because they have no choice where as we do it with intention.

This kind of thing just reeks of shortsightedness. Having one lucky prick who sure maybe worked a little hard maybe not decide what to do for humanity with his money that he won through predatory means is dumb. Garbage in garbage out, anyon

This argument makes sense for the security angle. At least as it pertains to getting malware on your local machine. But what about all of the "not security" but bad things that happen because we allow people to run code we have no

I hope we can have a more reasoned debate than this. This topic is really important and frankly there's so much to it I hope that hearing others I can learn more. When I read some of the thread above what I am hearing is: "I don&#

I get what you are saying but does every operating system have the goal of allowing unpredictable multiple user applications running? A cooperative system can easily be correct for something well managed like an IOT device with only certain

I think left to our own engineers would have resolved to something like this already. The issue as I see it is corporations and business people have taken over the leadership of this trade to rake in money regardless of what it does to the

People should ease up on "how" people learned. You learning basic would not frighten me. The fact that the first coding I did was mIRC scripting however should terrify everyone hahaha

Not sure why this has no reaction. While this is the very forceful version of it I think the piss poor education of people is very obviously a huge contributor here and to nearly every other problem in the past few years.

You got a lot of correct but verbose responses. Put in layman's terms you had to run 1 + foo(20) again. If 1 + foo(20) were replaced by a complex and long winded function you would have lost all of that state and needed to run it all a

Exactly. I don't care how it's built I care that it survives some daily use that is not sitting on a desk. My job many years ago provided me a Lenovo x220. I used to haul that thing from NJ to Arkansas with me twice a year and all
