This is such a good write-up and something I'm struggling with very hard. Does quality of code in the traditional sense even matter anymore if e.g. CC can work with said code anywa…

What's more likely is that a significant number of people will start having most/all of their meaningful interactions with AI instead of with other people.

Doesn't work where I live, is the block on a country level?

Having worked with cvs and svn, git has been an absolute blast. That said, the first thing I do now in a repo is jj init --colocate. The fact alone that there is an operation log i…

It's happening on a different level as well. More and more developers are moving from the US to popular startup hubs in Europe, e.g. Amsterdam, Copenhagen. They were often higher u…

If I understand correctly, what this project does is take the actual postgresql sources, which are written in C, compile them to wasm and provide typescript wrappers. So you need t…

There is a very loud part of HN that strongly dislikes mozilla/firefox. It's disproportionate imo, I don't understand why they're singled out so often.

From what I've seen in my direct circle, childhood trauma leaves deep deep traces, and not in a good way. The idea that childhood trauma encourages growth to me sounds like pull yo…

Am I missing something here? 4chan is available in the UK so has to follow UK laws there, where is the problem? Regardless of whatever it is they are enforcing.

Gaming on linux has been awesome for years. With the advent of systems like bazzite, the transition is only getting easier.

In Belgium we have a service called "itsme". Had it for ages, works very well, used to be mainly for government but banks are also switching to it.

Enemy country in the current geopolitical climate is an interesting take. Doesn't sound like a great idea to me tbh.

My observation is most people who mix up C and C++ use neither. How could you even automatically migrate when a lot of things you do in C++ are straight up illegal. Not to mention …

Open the cc1plus or ld "internal binaries" to be even more confused ;)

Isn't this already done? I remember a "try to hack the llm" game posted here months ago, where you had to try to get the llm to tell you a password, one of the levels had a sanitze…

The one that bites me daily is in keeper. The web UI opens with icons collapsed, expanding after ?500ms?, right about when I want to click on a category to expand it, thus collapsi…

> So using LLMs as a junior you are just breaking my trust, and we both know you are not a competent reviewer of LLM code - why am I even dealing with you when I'll get LLM outputs…

The regularly flood youtube with advertisments for chrome, I've yet to see my first youtube ad for firefox.

FWIW tooling being as important as it is, it always seems like a mistake to me that the standard committee doesn't standardize compilers.

> Bitcoin failed as a currency because the people who got most invested in it do not care about currency As far as I understand, bitcoin is fundamentally unusable as a currency. Tr…

LLMs are so easy to use though, it's addictive. Even as a senior I find myself asking LLMs stuff I know I should be looking up online instead.

I don't think the human is the problem here, but the time it takes to run the full testing suite.

I'm in the EU. You have no idea what you're talking about.
