Might not want to, but perhaps still should. I don't want my dog to bite a young child, but when it does, I'm still liable, whether I want to or not.

I have done this. Despite using Fable for the spec, and having it double-check the spec a couple of times, it still wasn't airtight. And at some point, the implementing LLM accessed one file of the original code on the Web. I have by n

I think it's mostly the hybrids and EVs that are killing manual transmission. They were very common 20 years ago.

Nice analysis. I really love diving into 2 and 3, but I also notice I'm pretty good at 1; at several companies I kept identifying problems we should address, and also how to address them, though quite often they just wanted me to focus

Yeah, I was recently asked to do a coding assignment for a company I wasn't even sure I wanted to work for. Sorry, but I'm not going to start an interview process with extra work. I'd do it if I was really sure I wanted to wo

I would really strongly prefer titles to work the same way they do in html, which means plain text. Why should feed titles need a different standard than html titles?

They're trying to make software development sound like polar exploration or something?

Yes, but without exceptions for satire and parody etc.

Security concerns you need to think about when visiting the US are absolutely no less than those when visiting China these days. Treat it like a totalitarian dictatorship with more technological means.

Ukraine is gaining some ground, but very slowly. It's basically a stalemate. Except that Ukraine is making the war extremely costly for Russia with the recent attacks on refineries and other targets deep into Russia. As long as the EU

The main threat to Europe is if Trump ever makes good on his threats to take Canada and Greenland. If the US turns truly hostile, then Europe has a serious problem. Especially if Putin and Trump decide they want to split Europe between the

I usually thank people in person after an interview. Why would I do that by email? And if they inform me about the rejection in person, that's great. It's not getting any feedback at all that's impolite and frustrating, becau

Which is why a free market requires regulation, but only for the purpose to break up trusts, cartels and monopolies, and to ensure equal access to the market and a level playing field. It's not a trivial problem to solve and probably r

Codeberg is not a company. Also, we're not talking about jail. We're talking about principles.

Is it not obvious? They've just done it. They've excluded people based on new rules, and not everybody was expecting those new rules. Having done it once, they can clearly do it again. Will it be justified? Who knows? Will it excl

I think this would be a good time for another European alternative to present itself. Outside the US, but more pragmatic than Codeberg.

That's normal for any "vereniging", "Verein", union or association. My VVE (HOA) has that too. So did both of the student unions I've been a member of. There are organisations for playing games that have the sa

I was hoping my library is useful enough to enough people that a community would form around it. Self hosting doesn't sound like a good way to do that. I'll have a look at Gitea. Otherwise it's probably going to be Github. Or

That starting message is not encouraging: > so many people who have made "coding with an LLM" their whole personality As opposed to "coding without an LLM" being their whole personality? Neither of these are what a pe

Weird thing is: I agree with both of you. Of course they can decide what to host and what not. And it's sad if that excludes me. But insulting small projects like that was uncalled-for.

It's great that Emacs gets more support of course, but personally I've never really got the hang of it. I actually like IntelliJ. To the point that I can't even bear VS Code. And for simple editing, vi is still my thing. I do
