    I often wonder what are some better strategies for standing out in an application process like this? Resumes being generated by LLMs strikes me as a setback for this type of system…

    In general, it's not a protection from gross negligence and/or fraud. The problem is that in cases like these it's extremely difficult to prove such a thing, especially considering…

    This just isn't true though. Do you mean to say thay legal remedies are more accessible to the rich? Every single small business owner benefits from the liability protections of co…

    True, but there are times when doing some analyzes or refactoring that what one wants to operate on is go source directly, so the output of gofmt is easier and standardized and doe…
