> nondeterministic programming language that would allow your mom to achieve SOTA results I actually think it's great for giving non-programmers the ability to program to solve basic problems. That's really cool and it's p

This is the only approach that seems even remotely reasonable “Prompt engineering” just seems dumb as hell. It’s literally just an imprecise nondeterministic programming language. Before a couple years so, we all would have said that was a

Just because it doesn’t leave the cycle doesn’t mean it’s not an issue. Where it comes back down matters and as climate change makes wet places wetter and dry places drier, that means it’s less distributed That said, the water issue is over

Any gc pause is unacceptable if your goal is predictable throughput and latency Modern gcs can be pauseless, but either way you’re spending CPU on gc and not servicing requests/customers. As for c++, std::unique_ptr has no ref counti

There’s nothing trivial about running or scaling an ldap server. Ldap is also not Active Directory. Ldap is one very small part of it

Comparing postfix/dovecot to exchange is grossly misunderstanding what’s happening If you’re using exchange/outlook, you’re using Active Directory. The only real “altetnative” is the reimplementation in samba v4.. calling that an

That has not been my experience at all. It takes 30-40 minutes to generate a plan and it generates code that would have taken 20-30 minutes to write. When it’s generating “weeks” worth of code, it inevitably goes off the rails and the crap

The problem is, by the time you’ve gone through the process of making a granular plan and all that, you’ve lost all productivity gains of using the agent. As an engineer, especially as you get more experience, you can kind of visualize the

It’s fun to work backwards, but i was listening to a podcast where the journalists were talking about a dinner that Sam Altman had. This question came up and Sam said they were profitable if you exclude training and the COO corrected him So

I think the staleness comes from the fact that it’s the 60 billionth time you’ve done some “quest” to go gather some crap up or kill the same thing in a loop for an hour. No amount of dialogue is going to save that. The actual story dialogu

I’m not sure I would consider fuschia an example that supports your point. It’s design largely failed at being a modern generic operating system and it’s become primarily an os used for embedded devices which is an entirely different set of

It’s not an invalid use case in nixpkgs. It’s kind of the point of package overlays. It removes the “magic” constraint solving that seemingly never works and pushes it to the user to make it work

MacBook mics are fine assuming you sit close enough to your laptop and directly infront of it. If you have it off to the side and aren’t sitting pretty close it will sound like butthole Proper positioning is pretty important.

At a large enterprise, 6-9 months is blazingly fast. Everything takes longer than you think and this sounds like it involves at least 2 teams (the php team and the scalar team). Every team you include increases time line factorially in the

> the point I was trying to make and failed, was that there were no (able bodied) grown adults working those jobs like Mcdonalds 30 years ago. I think you made that point. The other posters point was that this point is patently untrue.
