How someone voted has almost no bearing on the dangers of tech. The dangers were there before the last election and none of the candidates had strong positions regarding tech privacy. Microsoft would still be doing what it has been doing re

"I don’t have to think about what I need to test for." Good luck then. The business process flow including edge cases should arguably be top of mind for what to test. Testing shouldn't be an afterthought but rather an integra

I had a mid-level submit a PR implementing caching. I had to reject it multiple times . They were using Copilot and it couldn't implement it right and the developer couldn't understand it. Stuff like always retrieving from the AP

I've never had an LLM create a robust, meaningful test file. I end up rewriting at least half of it.

But your thought process during coding influences your testing. At least for most of us, we find edge cases or point of concern during coding that we place extra focus on in test. This is different than what you've done for the past 40

Compilers have a finite set of inputs and outputs that should generate reproducible results. There's a larger amount of possible outputs for the same question with AI and very little reproducbility.

If anything, you have to understand code more now. Before you (or your devs) could write code a couple different ways and understand it. Now you have to look a code generated by an agent that is not necessary writing code in the same way as

The definition isn't that long. The definition is usually something like 1 year at the state level. But then the rules allow large chunks of time to be excluded from that 1 year requirement, like time waiting for a court doctor to decl

The cases to judge and cases to lawyer (government side anyways) is extremely high. I think this is actually a negative a creates waste through context switching with all the delays. Nobody wants to pay to appropriately staff the court syst

by giantg2 9mo ago
I'd call that working as intended. The government is the one who shut down the courts. They could have implemented safety precautions and staffed up to handle the backlog.

Nothing provides complete protection, but diversification can help reduce the impact. The person saying gold and mining stocks may or may not be correct - it's still a risky position. Precious metals could be in a commodity bubble righ

You'd have to get it expunged for it to not show up. Even then, it will still show up for security clearances and such.

Yes, civil suits are also legal battles. There's no reason it should have taken more than a year to resolve. By the way, I dont know who you are quoting as that is not my exact wording.

by giantg2 9mo ago
It's hard to say if they would be able to gain security clearances in the future. Not to mention automated application systems will drop them from the system immediately with a prior arrest.

If the state wants to verify the counties are doing an adequate job, then tipping them off could result in an invalid assessment. The sheriff's reaction raises suspicion that there are deficiencies he doesn't want found

My state, like many, defines a speedy criminal trail as the trial commencing any time within 5 years of being charged...

When they turn this slowly it's disingenuous to call it justice. Spending 10% of your adult life locked in legal battles is a ridiculous price to pay for something that should be resolved in under a year.

Even being charged without conviction can result in a serious reduction in job opportunities.

Dead vaccine should work fine if administered as a booster.

"Yes, because unvaccinated humans lack immunity. A single imported case could spread rapidly through an unvaccinated..." That's assuming there would be an imported case. Travel restrictions can solve that. That's how we

by giantg2 9mo ago
Under the current vaccination policy that is possible. However, if travel restrictions were in place they should require recent live immunity, which would be extremely unlikely to result in a transmissible infection.

Is it working if it's not actually doing anything? As in, the recipients are not at risk of contracting it, there is no difference in risk between the vaccinated and unvaccinated in an environment that lacks the pathogen. Travel requir

And they received vaccines appropriate for their deployment. Similar to Yellow Fever - not required in the US, but required related to travel to/from risky areas.

by giantg2 9mo ago
Just require if for travel, as we do with Yellow Fever and other vaccines.

by giantg2 9mo ago
This seems off topic. I saw nothing in the article nor my comment that displays that level of ignorance. This seems more like a strawman to start a flame war.
477.
by giantg2 9mo ago
With my comment about travel requirements, it would be similar.
478.
by giantg2 9mo ago
That's why my comment says travel to/from risky areas should require it.
479.
by giantg2 9mo ago
Yeah, that's from the vaccine. Just don't use the live version of the vaccine.

Can you elaborate?
