Primitive in what way? There are already tools that categorize changes so that they are easier to follow during a review.

For me the smoking hall going away was a turning point in the culture at CCC for the worse. Sitting there and smoking weed with random people are some of my favorite memories. It feels less like disneyland for hackers each year

I feel like a lot of the stars for repos like this are from people who are riding the AI hype train and not actually interested in using the software

isn't that what protected branches etc are supposed to fix in platforms like GitLab/GitHub/etc? My team has yet to break any important branches

Yeah it's pretty meaningless to see the ai label below videos. Lots of obvious AI shorts and videos are unlabeled yet other videos are labeled as fully generated with AI when they are obviously not [1] [1] https://www.youtub

even before AI very few developers cared about the actual craft. I'd say only about 3%. For a lot of people it's just a job, no matter if it's a corperate dev or a startup dev.

prompt injection has been super easy for ages. Heck I do it sometimes against coworkers who process my review comments using claude. I'll tell claude to edit it's global claude.md file or even dump a key from their env (checking i

> Claude told them People acting like meat proxies add no value. Claude is also very eager to make conclusions without digging deeper. It has no inherent curiosity or prior knowledge about the codebase asside from what it can see.

In my experience they still struggle a lot though. They're great at 1 to 1 translations but they will fight the target language to get there tho. A lot of the rust rewrites I've seen done by AI contain a lot of patterns that any r

Sufficiently complex software is something agents still struggle a lot with

if you tell it to do a thing it'll try it's best to make you think that it was done. I rarely get good refactors from AI unless I tell it specifically what to do.

I don't think we'll be fucked as a profession. That's just SV hype from people living far away from reality

That's assuming you have the link to their post. The profile page only shows the last 5 posts (assuming they are showing them in chronological order)

I'll give that a try. Hopefully it reduces the text vomit Claude tends to do. Right now all I have is > - Give terse and concise answers unless the user asks you to elaborate. Big walls of text are not usefull when trying to communi

Where I work we're hosting our own gitlab instance and the previous company I worked for hosted their own Bitbucket. For most developers I know it's either a self hosted git platform instance or Github enterprise.

I've never had to show proof of insurance here, in the Netherlands, it's linked digitally to your license plate. I don't understand why other countries wouldn't do the same.

Why are you handing your phone to police? Why are they even asking for it?

iirc does pnpm not allow them by default. But even if we killed them off there would still be a chance of the malware hooking into something else or only working in cli applications.

Agents frequently go off on tangents, make wrong decisions, require feedback etc. Agents have never moved away from being a junior that knows everything about programming but has no idea how to properly apply it.

One of my proudest achievements in that scene was gaining the rank of Elite Torrent Master. I had terabites of music that I was seeding. I built a script that automatically found candidates for transcoding, downloaded them, transcoded them

Yeah same. The structure makes no real sense and when digging into the code it reads like I'm the first human to look at it.

Gemini writes pretty shitty code in my experience. We tried it out for a grand total of half a day at work before deciding it wasn't worth our time and switched back to Opus. ChatGPT writes like it's life depends on it and refuses

There are plenty of people who are willing to work for the government and the pay is pretty decent. But their stack is often Microsoft based and their IT is located in Apeldoorn. Who in their right mind would want to travel all the way to A
