I was wondering if he uploads to YouTube, would the same still apply? I mean if he doesn’t link them but just uses YouTube? All videos on YouTube must also have Hebrew subs?

There are better and worse systems for this; I tried a few for a project and there are some that are better than my hearing, as in, picking up words I missed correctly, even through thick accent. The court won’t be able to see these are aut

Maybe where you are? Here in my town it is quite normal to be driving around looking for a space while the 8 disabled spots at the entrance are never (not even 1) occupied. The police enforces so if you park there you immediately have a fin

This is the reason we stick to the same hotel chains we know that are good whenever we can; cannot really go wrong with higher tier french chains (not only in France; we used them in India, China, Thailand as well). We often find that all i

I like it for many reasons, but especially the helpful community, founder and everything just works. We use it with Istio at the moment. We switched from Cockroach (did not like the license and we had a few perf issues) to Yugabyte en Scyll

Personal attacks; that’s not very common here. However, enlighten me to this perceived misunderstanding?

Think the point is that as I am writing software, I don’t care about any of that. I expected an opinionated environment when I first heard the word cloud 2 or so decades ago; I wanted to put my code in cvs (git now) and that’s it; I don’t w

It indeed seems to worse. The cursor placement sometimes even seems to hang my phone for a few seconds (it gets hotter for sure). Also, I almost never intend to say ‘duck’.

It really depends on your demands; a lot of companies are running 1000s of trivial web applications and that’s it. Those can run on 10 year old servers which cost nothing at all anymore and never break; I have a few racks of them (HP dl360)

Oh I do believe you are right, I just don’t think this is a thing just anyone can learn: many ‘outsourcing’ programmers/coders don’t really understand what they are working on; they just finish tasks. I have no stats, but in companies

by tluyben2 4y ago
But I do review and test it and it is mostly 80% ok. It even learns your style of coding. Like said; it works best for stuff that is heavy on code but low on thought.

Why would I report him? He is doing what he is asked to do?

I use copilot to do things that I would’ve hired people for. I create tests and put comments in my code and copilot comes up with pages of dreary boring shit that would take me 0 pleasure or brainpower but would take a lot of work to just g

Indeed; that was the intended message. I don’t go reporting random people who slack off but yet complete their work; that would be a really busy job… I think there is even a word for that now in English (I am dutch). I will try to find it.

Yep, I still know all the hex opcodes of the z80 (MSX) now so many years later. It was nice; just type them in basic, poke and go. I never, at that age, knew the assembler equivalents and didn’t know it was a think until many years later. I

To me, most of these things are (well look) too dynamic; I like prototyping in clojure where I can write vomit to try things out fast, but when it has been done and dusted, I want to cast it in concrete and steel, which includes statically

On border patrol shows, I have seen it in US, AU and UK. Usually to identify if people come there for work without a work permit.

Ah indeed, thanks for reminding!

Most companies (and seo experts) vastly prefer .com domains though; wether for valid reasons or not, this still is the case. Squatters make loads of money from companies getting another tld and then later buying the .com.

You mean one person getting rich while they could’ve hired employees? Taxation is supposed to fix that, wether or not it does, considering their jurisdiction, is another point, but that’s not their fault.

I don’t agree with the gp, but humans, in my tiny village, drive into shit every single day . We just don’t accept that from self driving cars, but we do from humans because it’s normal.

Sure, I know. But what is the use being angry about it? It is happening. You are looking for a socialist/basic income world but live in a capitalist one. That is the problem. If AI replaces (it already does) people that doesn’t create

I have always been sceptical about AI; I majored in it in the AI winter of the 90s. But now that I am back to it in the past years, I am getting more positive. This now feels not a case of being happy but a case of that this will happen any

Yeah, but that’s the feeling but it (Notion) doesn’t just work (as well) is my issue.

Notion hasn't been great for me; I wanted to like it and we got it for our team, but everyone is struggling when doing anything besides text. I used it for blogging, but currently only to actually write them, not publish because of the

Your tone is not great, but he never had those jobs; he was born in a poor family (for NL), but his talent was recognised by HR Giger when he sent him a paintbrushed work (via dhl with a frame and all on a whim) and that was enough. He is n

That’s why these interviews are mostly useless imho. I do 15-30 minutes interviews in person myself when hiring to see if they understand anything and are creative and then just hire them for a trial month. Works a lot better, great results

But disruption in this space is not easy; these are massive and complex products; they look pretty trivial from the outside until you use them; there are 1000s of small features you need to have and support in all the workflows and api tool
