The local councils (local Authority) usually get external companies to design the systems, but there are standard, off the shelf solutions that are specified to be used. These systems range from time synced junctions (with Vehicle attenuati

ASCT is standard practice (and has been standard practice) on most junctions in most towns and cities in the UK for over 20 years.

This is a general principal in the eng shop I work for, its written into every step, including the SCRUM etc.. What when well, why did it fail, what could be done better. Its all part of root cause analysis. I personally use it for the agen

Loads of them in the UK. Especially in villages where it would be too expensive to install a bridge. Just look at the Southampton to Weymouth line.

In Linux, when a shared lib is loaded by multiple processes, its loaded once and not duplicated in ram. Only if a memory page is modified by the process will the memory be duplicated. (Hope I have explained that correctly)

A while ago I created a telegram bridge for AWS Kiro CLI, this allows my to talk to the agent running on my server from anywhere. Any remote access to any of these agents is a massive game changer, it means that you don't need to hover

Found out about this today, up until now 802.11p hardware is very expensive, and so you cannot easily do anything with V2x messages like CAM or SPAT, but the fact this was done with sub £20 hardware is really interesting.

100% agree, I find that sometimes I hit a dead end, but the things I build or learn on the way are usable at a later date.

I saw the RAC one this morning, though I was miss reading the graph, as why would the RAC publish such an obvious mistake. I have written my own Home Assistant custom component for the UK fuel finder data, and yes, the data really is that b

I use AWS Kiro, with the Claude models, and its only to happy to help. I give it the headerless ghidra, and decompilers etc... and away it goes.

Yes, I follow the same sort of pattern, it took a while to convince myself that it was ok to leave the agent waiting, but it helps with the human context switching. I also try to stagger the agests, so one may be planning and designing, whi

Yes, I mostly do spec driven developement. And at the design stage, I always add in tests. I repeat this pattern for any new features or bug fixes, get the agent to write a test (unit, intergration or playwright based), reproduce the issue

Its very important to understand the "how" it was done. The GPL hands the "compile" step, and the result is still GPL. The clean Room process uses 2 teams, separated by a specification. So you would have to 1. Generate s

I use AWS Kiro, and its spec driven developement is exactly this, I find it really works well as it makes me slow down and think about what I want it to do. Requirements, design, task list, coding.

I also try to avoid negative instructions. No scientific proof, just a feeling the same as you, "do not delete the tmp file" can lead too often to deleting the tmp file.

Not the best way to do it, but I use xfce, multiple workspaces, each with there own version of AWS Kiro, and each kiro has its own project I am working on. This allows me to "switch context" easier between each project to check ho

I agree with this, I put myself in the "glorious hacks to bend the machine into doing things it was never really intended to do" camp, so the end game is somthing cool, now I can do 3 cool things before lunch instead of 3 cool thi

I am currently doing 6 projects at the same time, where before I would only of doing one at a time. This includes the requirements, design, implementation and testing.

This is where I think its going, it feels that in the end we will end up with an "llm" language, one that is more suited to how an llm works and less human.

The api seems very unstable (or it might just be me) keeps timing out when I try to fetch.

Very interesting, I had a go with Ghidra and AWS Amazon Q, used it to reverse the video feed on a toy drone. I did not think to look for GhidraMCP, would of made it a lot quicker.

In a company, there may me multiple teams, each doing there own projects, PaaS can be within the same company and provide a common way to do stuff without each team having to start from scratch each time.

I work for a large company and even before remote working, all company laptops had to run CrowdStrike, this sounds very similar. However the rules where very clear, no using non-company laptops for work, this included contractors etc...
