I had terrible anxiety as a child and what I experienced dramatically affected the core of who I am. It is engrained in me and I struggle with it daily, though after decades I have surpassed a good portion of it. If a small dose can help

I think you're missing a more human point: people dislike the effect of hiring and firing thousands of people with zero consideration. They hire thousands because it makes management look like they're ramping up to solve problems

I pulled myself from a recent Amazon interview process because of how bad they are. At first I had the opinion that this could be interesting and exciting, but the more I thought about how they treated people, the more I realized that the

Safety is a huge concern with construction and really any operation that uses heavy equipment. I promise you they all know about Tesla autopilot running into people and will absolutely bring it up ad nauseum. And I only say this because I

How much safety training have you done with the models? i.e. does it know to stop if it's about to drive over a human?

Right, but that doesn't address the issues that all 320's have. In that case, the airman lied, but the guns still have those issues.

I had a 365 and traded it in. Wasn't even a good pistol, just small and light. Got a S&W CSX and it's fantastic.

A few notes: - Sig has known about it for years[1] - A company recently filed a patent for a fix[2] and they offered Sig the rights to it before filing, but Sig refused. - The Air Force has cleared the 320 for use[3]. In my pessimistic opi

Yes. They have modified the VS Code interface to present the Design/Requirements/Tasks as a first-class citizen, something that you refer back to often. I think it works well. Nothing that couldn't be replicated, of course

I started using it this weekend to build a greenfield project from scratch. Vibe requests ran out very quickly, so I just opened up VS Code in another window and had Copilot's Agent handle those. I just use Kiro for the Spec requests

Honestly if you're a millisecond too slow you might as well not trade at all. From my own experience with trying to get Python to go fast for crypto trading, you can get it pretty fast using Cython - single digit microseconds on an av

I think this offering is a perfectly reasonable option for them to make money. We all have bills to pay, and this isn't interfering with their open source project, so I don't see anything wrong with it.

Or they would be forced to figure out technology that we would consider science-fiction, assuming it's possible. To consider our tech as the pinnacle is the wrong approach, I think. Perhaps we've had it too easy here - moderate c

Either their sales team absolutely screwed this up, or they just don't want to bother with the VMware platform anymore. Maybe both?
