So when checksums are enabled and the DB process restarts or the host reboots does the DB run the checksum over all the stored data? Sounds like it would take forever for the database to come online. But if it doesn't it may not detect

'human engineering' here isn't social engineering. I think they're referring to aspects of engineering that LLMs are still incapable of - like design simplification.

There ought be a fair amount of legacy Java code sitting in enterprises that they would be willing to pay for an Oracle® seal of approval for running parts in the browser. May be they are aiming for graalvm to be the answer eventually. (act

Yes but why do it in C++? There is no compiler enforced safe mode and you're by definition implementing an engine to run hostile code in it.

This line of thinking applies to creating widgets on the assembly line but writing code combined with solving the right problems can totally have 10/20 even 50x impact. Automation can be levered up quite well with the right setup.

Why is there a need to present a fake "balanced" perspective on every such topic or person. At least on a forum like this it should be ok to call out pseudoscience and straight up quackery. Also just because some information is gl

I hear you. But I have wondered if there won't be a need to maintain certain like of software when you can just have it be rewritten for each iteration. Like some kind of schema evolution, yes but throwaway software at each iteration.
