Code grepping at build time can be useful. Grepping at at runtime, if you can call it that, is also very powerful. If you have a binary, either your company or a third party one, but don't have the source code easily available, I have

There has been a lot of good mentions so far for permanent solutions on storing secrets securely.. On the other end, I'll chip in on https://onetimesecret.com/ for quickly sharing a secret. It will only allow the consu

After switching to difftastic for semantic diff, I have never looked back. ( https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic ) How does semanticdiff compare to that? Anyone got experience?

Good reflections. It kind of remind me of the big data era where everything needed to revolve around big data. However, what happened is that it became apparent that not everything needs to be big data. Business needs will shine through as

The Splinter Cell games were way before their time! Interesting to see that it works in practice.

How does it keep the records up-to-date? An IP nowadays is highly elastic and can be relocated to different tenants on your cloud provider.

We're 30-40 developers, and we have just stopped using backstage. We started using it for APIM behind Okta SSO, but all the custom frontend and functionality tweaking needed to make it look nice was daunting. If we start looking at it

I see valkey getting a lot of attention recently, as it is a newly founded alternative. What is the major differences over using TiKV which has been around for many years? https://www.cncf.io/projects/tikv/

> Blocking ICMP can break of lot of things and offers no real benefits outside of a handful of specific edge cases. Are you referring to local networks only? It's very common to not allow ICMP by defaul to workloads in the cloud, e.

That might work in some scenarios. If you're a "newer" company where each application is deployed onto individual nodes, you can do this. But consider that the case for older companies, where it was more common to deploy seve

If you had your hand in the pocket or have been outside in freezing temperatures you usually cannot determine any lukewarm temperature in a precise way. It wouldn't make sense to use the term lukewarm or lukecool in those cases IMHO.

by whirlwin 3y ago
It's easy to precisely define what lukewarm is, especially in cooking, because it implies that fluid should be body temperature. I.e. that you cannot feel any temperature difference when putting your finger in it. Lukecool on the other

Running AI models on edge devices is already here. This is just one example https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp With Swift language bindings it would be quite smooth to work towards.

No surprise. Apple likely wants to run LLMs on their devices and provide developers with the possibility to create iOS apps using that. C++ is essential in that sense.

Depends. If you would have to fetch a big layer often because of updates, that's not good. But if what is changing frequently is in a smaller layer, it will be more favorable

Consider the case of an individual who manages to have a stable body mass without training. One would most certainly require more calories if he/her started training.

Google realised that the free podcast app won't cut it for them. So they push their userbase over to the YouTube universe, where a paid subscription is flashed in your face if you have one. Not too surprising

by whirlwin 3y ago
Isn't it obvious? They don't make enough money? The podcast app was basically free, and YouTube Music/whatever is heavily based on a subscription model
