When did this profession turn into a bunch of people that never want to build anything ever again? I guess I finally understand what they meant by "no one ever got fired buying IBM".

Or, you know, if the latter isn't happening, you find some way of allocating them that isn't an absolute utter unproductive drain on the economy . There are lots of finite things in life for which there exist many different alloc

More mathy code like checking if a number is even or splitting a total number of seconds into minutes and seconds?

I love the marketing upstart attitude, but indeed, the reality of "PhDs, poets and subject matter experts expanding the frontiers of AI" is much more likely to be the "Amazon cashierless supermarket" experience. The prob

Boiling the frog for 3 years now. And then we get these insulting blog posts of clueless Developer Relations people claiming how amazing it is that they now support 5000 rules, a number surely meant to impress equally clueless people.

Taking the piss, people paid $80 for these only 2 years ago. Make the waste of a PM that decided "it no longer aligned with the Spotify vision" tour the globe to personally pick up these things and hand people back their money.

This is one of those “accuse a diver of being a paedophile” moments. Who knew Sam is a creep with a Scarlet Johansson obsession cooking up a voice model just like her on compute daddy Satya paid for (but books as revenue, 2000 dotcom style)

This kind of de minimis artistic use is what fair use was invented for, and god knows they licensed her likeness regardless.

Well if you believe the ARM people, these are not the same thing.

This discussion is tremendously annoying because like the whole "room temperature superconductor" thing, half of it is people who have read far too many science fiction books

Never mind no benchmarks, half of these announcements in the past were straight made up , "offline enhanced" cherry picked "examples", CGI fantasies. Not to mention the whole AGI topic is forever doomed from SciFi fans,

Does seem like another browser/search integration debacle. Makes you wonder which side is getting paid between Apple and OpenAI.

What "boatloads of complexity" does CMake wrap and save me from handling myself? Turn on all warnings? Yeah, just check if your CC is MSVC or else and set the flag! Turn on sanitizers? Yeah, just include this 2000 line piece of CM

Yes, 10 years after the initial announcement, Tesla has just now got around to ordering some LIDARs for capturing ground-truth training data. They then went out of their way to get the one LIDAR made to look palatable to end customers inste

Literally one page into the article there is the full stack trace that makes abundantly clear there is no such thing going on, they just added a bunch of overhead. That's despite OSX having a vDSO style mechanism for it: https:/&

The same as always, we crank up the resolution? Sorry to say but your 1080p and 1440p is already a few years behind, so "the next few years" aren't terribly exciting.

Yeah, I think grandparent is confusing "not knowing the language features" with "want nothing to do with the latest metaprogramming mess the cooks are serving". Job listings with C++ are a mess, you never know what level

They are done and we still got too much atmospheric CO2, now you burn them. Feel free to insist they captured it in the past hundred years but it’s really a distinction without a difference in this situation. You don’t get a free pass on th

Yes, it’s releasing carbon now, to be recovered a hundred years down the road. That doesn’t really work with the timelines we are looking at.

Is there anyone else that gets unreasonably angry at stuff like PIMPL? It is truly the most braindead, bereft of sense activity in this world. There was a comment in one of the many Rust threads that called C++ a respectable language now bu

Indeed, we should charge the parked driver for the cost caused by all those passengers in buses held up. They are getting off cheap with the ticket.

The reality is that in the UK as many other places in the world, public transport is highly subsidized. All these little transport fiefdoms and zones aren't accomplishing anything at all. There is no good reason to not have a single pa

This is funny because a thread over there is gonna be (the same?) people arguing "its the company computer they can spy on you all day you have no rights". Maybe there is a middle ground to be found in the insanity but it's d
