Plus there is tooling like Copilot that works and is useful. I would love to have something like copilot integrated across my whole system, gathering all my current context, like terminal, notes, mail, issue tracker and have even just plain

I will be convinced when AI will create its first breakthrough PhD paper/discovery. But we have to admit that emergent properties like chain of thoughts are facts and are really impressive. The question is how much model size, context,

Looks good and for foldable with guaranteed 5y support and clean system the price is ok-ish. But I'll pass, not available on my market.

Why not both. Doctors can sieve hallucinations and random BS and cross check with peers anyway, and correct the diagnosis description. This can save a lot of typical paperwork and increase healthcare availability by decreasing bureaucratic

It's rather caused by archaic approach of VW to car software. Tesla showed (almost decade ago) how should it be done. Years have passed and VW is not only behind the competition, but still in '00s. They were agile enough to fake N

Ruby is fine until your large application starts to include more and more dependencies. There is no coherent API across, every library has it's own mini DSL and the mess starts to build up. Then it comes method_missing, monkey patching

Great question! I worked with two approaches: 1. Sagas - a centralised place to handle bussines flows 2. Event system Start with 1. and eventually (pun intended) move to 2. Both ways allow parallelized interactions with external systems, de

Mocks means that there's a side effect neccessary (and that's quite rare) so the use is justified in such a case. If a stub is needed, then mostly it's gone when the code is refactored to a more functional style. Unfortunatel

I recommend to deep dive into various technologies/communities from time to time. There is a plenty of separate, but vibrant tech spheres. They are "dark matter" to each other.

Only Detroid school! Mocks should be banned (unless they mock external system). London-style tests cargo culting is one of the reasons why OOP got bad name.

And that opens another risk for Netflix. Paying users that canceled will be more eager to check the competition, and migrated user is harder to regain. Anyway, the catalogue is so fragmented that cyclic migration makes sense.

I verified that it has all required facts (line of succession, current circumstances). I managed to get the right answer when got everything in context, but it failed again when all three abdicate (same context). Prince Harry was indicated

Yeah, I tested that, but asked what happens if both Charles and William abdicate - got this result: "However, if both Charles III and his son abdicate, it is not clear who would become the head of state in Australia. There is a possibi

Microsoft is a multibillion profitable public company and they managed to extend the search in no time. Google is not as effective as it could be. They have great engineering and they proved that many times, but something is not working on

This solves a real issue. Key transparency for SSL certificates introduced years ago by Google surfaced a lot of misissued certificates and fixed large hole in the whole system. Of course, this is for WhatsApp and the impact is smaller, but

Yeah, I agree that some words could be choosed better, but overall it changed my mind over the use of GPL licenced code. Copilot and other ML tools should not use GPL trained models to create proprietary licenced code.

This, but foremost, financing by private investors is very small. All companies with a valuable product move sooner or later to US or they face money starvation. Also EU suffers of market fragmentation, unless you have good recomendations a

I have quite opposite opinion. Every extension increased readibilty and cut the cruft. For example, even simple changes, like native tuples or expression bodied members tremendously changed how the language should be used and how the "

Not always. Technologies get old and have to be replaced over time. Tech debt is now mostly treated as a part of a product and developers do not decide what to do about it, but bussines through roles like product owners.

It's worth to add that Baikal Electronics is sanctioned by USA, EU, UK and banned to use ARM. So "feeling uncomfortable accepting the patch" is a nice euphemism in that case.

Worse, you can be quite sure that a patch or series of patches from "Kim Jong-un" will introduce a bug (or rather a well hidden corner case) leading to a backdoor. It can be assumed that there's a hidden incentive behind the

The blog nicely states that OKRs are just a part of a solution. I've seen when OKRs actually worked, and the emphasis was put on the objectives part and later the indicators produced a set of initiatives. Unfortunately, I've also
