What?! Really?! Link? I'm not a Zed user. That comment was based off a few minutes of research, and I guess a small dose hopium of a VSCode user and understanding what a shit show the extensions setup is and wanting someone to do bette

VSCode extensions and the ecosystem is a security time-bomb. Zed looks to be doing things better.

That was a rather unhelpful TL;DR.

Probably a dumb question, but is GNU Core utils interested in / planning on doing its own rust rewrite?

<50% utilization of billions of dollars of capex. Brilliant idea.

The first 3 points are solid advice, but the rest read more like a guide on how to be successful in the work place in my experience.

I have a vaguely unrelated question re: > You do what your supervisor did for you, years ago: you give each of them a well-defined project. Something you know is solvable, because other people have solved adjacent versions of it. Somethi

Roughly 20y DeepBlue to AlphaZero. I don't think that is comparable though. Use of deep neural networks was what made the machines starting with AlphaZero dominant again. I.e. we're already in the new paradigm.

I dunno. I trained as a software engineer, pivoted to civil laborer. I just can't see a robot doing 90% of the stuff I do anytime soon. Same goes for plumber, electrician, ... even most mobile plant operations. As a supplement around t

Nah HA is defs what I want. I agree it's terrible software. All the more motivation for me to try throw AI at it. If the docs were better I'd just grind the docs instead it would probably be ahead, but the HA docs suck almost as b

Right now I'm trying to get an AI (actually two ChatGPT and Grok) to write me a simple HomeAssistant integration that blinks a virtual light on and off driven by a random boolean virtual sensor. I just started using HomeAssistant and d

I feel like apparmor is getting there, very, very slowly. Just need every package to come with a declarative profile or fallback to a strict default profile.

And most CS grads forget all that after a few years because it's not relevant to what they're actually doing.

Might not be how it appears. The CVE number can be reserved by the org and then "published" with only minimal info, then later update with full details. Looking at the meta data that's probably what happened here (not entirel
