It's not a "suspect" thing, it has been widely reported up and down the chain there is basically no support for tariffs, especially when the economic reality hit. The only supporter is trump, and he can do whatever he wants a

You think we are not constantly mocking trump, his entire administration, and everything his group of jack booted fascists are doing? Boy do you need to visit some other bars!

For some quantity of use. When I say infinite customizeability I mean its just fronting chat gpt + tools without any real product use case.

This is exactly what I said to the last company (which is basically shutting down now lol) management - "infinite customizeability" means "zero percent understandability" for a typical suite of software. I literally was

We already have anti-trust and other regulation to manage this problem, we simply need to use it. There's no end of competition, the world changes, companies bloat and make bad choices, smaller competitors can react and change faster -

And when you get that new job with that new stack? Switching back to the windows laptop? I learned early on in my career how to live off the land and use the tools I have given to be efficient because it is rare that I get to decide the to

The rumblings as in - the push back on the enormous takeover by christian conservatives of the united states, taking away women's rights, voting to teach the bible in schools, and doing their best to mass disenfranchise voters? Fuck &#

You are saying this in a thread about an impact of a war we just made up and did not do in any sane way.

What do the Iranians get for us overthrowing their government in the 50s? (we are not the good guys here)

Yep, I avoid saying the word simple almost entirely - its straight forward to get to the top of a mountain, it might still be incredibly arduous.

Cool, well let me know when you prosecute the president and his cronies and we can work our way down.

When the rich and powerful stealing the actual wealth from under us use it as a jingoistic canard we can actually safely ignore it, yes.

You also have to think that SO was very early in gamification and changing things around that never got political will afaict - people love their points.

by hilariously 2mo ago
Yep, SO was dying before the GPTs - in some ways it was baked in the original SO design - to become the canonical source of information about programming stuff. Many people talk about the negativity, and they are right, but I think the reas

A great point, you will also eventually be in a constant state of failure, and have to turn that into something you can manage, automatically.

It's useless because this is not novel at this point, its literally everyone posting on HN - I did a thing with an LLM but idk if its good! That doesn't open up the discussion, it retreads the exact same discussion that both sides

It depends on who you are paying for it, but generally a distributed system is harder to reason about, harder to fix, has weirder edge cases, and much more easily get into situations where it requires even MORE expertise to fix than just ha

I dont think its highly exploitable, but you could get people in trouble - have them visit innocuous website during a vulnerable time window, spray a bunch of adult websites into their history, report them to the boss, future visits do not

Chromium is probably 30 million+ lines of code, and we generally see that as things get more complex its even easier to accidentally write code which can be exploited. If it has 1 vulnerability in every 10k loc of code we'd be talking

And one built without it and not coordinating with it is often much harder to reason about when you bolt it on later.
