Meh, I still only buy the two-dial microwaves. They are both the cheapest and best at the same time!

Seriosly? They leak emissions if you OPEN THE DOOR WHILE ITS RUNNING? I thought they were actually, like, certified? How can this not have been tested and fixed... shutting down the magnetron can not take long, right? Making it react fast e

I mean this is coming to the same result as heywhatsthat, apparently using the same dataset. Sadly it is not really correct, in that I think it blends a lot of things, including TREEs into the height. Its very obvious many places that some

I have to 1000% agree with this. In a large codebase they also miss stuff. Actually, even at 10kloc the problems beging, UNLESS youre code is perfectly designed. But which codebase is perfect, really?

by sandos 8mo ago
You can't possibly cram everything into AGENTS, also LLMs still do not perfectly give the same weight to all of its context, ie. it still ignores instructions.

Yeah, I tried various very sane-looking instrucions file when starting to use copilot 6 months ago. Turned out it was not really useful. It mostly follows the rules anyway, but it also often forgot to. So turns out, especially with the fast

Ive been thinking about our company, one of big global conglomerates that went for copilot. Suddenly I was just enrolled.. together with at least 1500 others. I guess the amount of money for our business copilot plans x 1500 is not a huge a

Sometimes when I was stressed, I have used several models to verify each others´ work. They usually find problems, too! This is very useful for things that take time to verify, we have CI stuff that takes 2-3 hours to run and I hate when th

In my world, sending up new satellites is the new "maintenance". And it is certainly NOT for free!

Agree, but it seems dependent on field. One day I wanted a browser extension made, and 5.2-codex-max added hundreds of lines of code several times, and for 15-20 iterations I did not change one thing, or even have an opinion on what it was

Github copilot is not just autocompletion, its a chat/agent thing in VS Code.

I have no clue about GUI programming, but I eventually came to the conclusion to use Avalonia after even my LLM told me to do it.

In Sweden some of faults can be covered if the mileage is low enough, usually the limit is between 120000 and 200000 km. Usually engine and tranmission is covered.

I keep trying to generate SVG using LLMS when I feel mermaidjs does not work. There has to be a better option here? I just want slightly more control than mermaidjs sometimes, but it seems its the de-facto default we are stuck with.

Huh? There is nothing stopping copilot from doing an entire project in one go. Ive done it 10s of times.

Iv'e been using GPT-5.1, 5.1-codex and 5.1-codex-max and gpt-5.2 the last few weeks. Then I got tipped off about opus, and that it was supposed to be awesome. The problem is I can clearly see old patterns of "Oooh, I found the iss

The insurance premiums here in Sweden are very similar between ICE and EVs, with one exception: Teslas! They are 2-3x as expensive as many comparable EVs to insure.

Kinda sad that maptoposter uses png. SVG is so much better in this case, if you want to actually print a poster!

I did something similar to use images in a mosaic, and taking the image contents into consideration. This turns out is super-simple as long as you do everything in JPEG space: Just use however many coefficients to compare! So, scale the ori

If you do not at least have a tool to feed the context of the LLM then you will always have a b*tch of an experience, I believe. We tried out an LLM in our company which had almost no context management. It sucked. Everyone hated it. Queue

and if you ctrl+- like 7 times youre back to showing clear pixels. If you set cell size to 4, then 5 times is enough :)

Hitachi Energy as well, afaik anyway.

MTB is the solution here. You can't really sit down when it gets a bit rough.

This sounds like a flashback to J2EE. Which I know is still alive and well. Banks, insurance companies and the tax agency do not much care for fancy new stuff, but that it works.

I dont understand, the agent mode of copilot will search for and be pretty good and filling its own context afaik. I never really feed any of our 100k+ lines legacy codebase explicitly to the LLM.

I really need this in my life. Once upon a time, things were good and our Chromecast with Google TV knew _exactly_ how to turn on our soundbar, set our TV to output sound to said soundbar, control the volume on that soundbar using IR. Now a

I feel very strongly after 20+ years of development that DRY is a good guideline, but I have also seen many, many times that trying to follow it to the letter is actually detrimental and results in too complex solutions.

This is one area I do use LLMs for, write small utils and test code, and very often in languages I very seldom even touch, such as C# and Rust. This to me seems to be the core idea of a tool that is awesome at translating!

Is it just me, or should they have just reverted instead of making _another_ change as a result of the first one? ALSO, very very weird that they had not caught this seemingly obvious bug in proxy buffer size handling. This points to that t
