    And South when contrasted with the "real" North? Northern Europe is a region and while there can be various definitions the most common ones do not include Benelux countries https:…

    It does not even have to break, you and your LLM can introduce subtle bugs or vulnerabilities to a codebase you are not familiar with and there is a userbase of 1 person to catch t…

    If I remember correctly, we had to patch or provide justification for CVEs flagged by tools like AWS Inspector for SOC2 as well.

    86% of AI not used for work - so Gemini is mainly used by consumers, I guess also mostly non-paying. I am not surprised as they are on many Androids nowdays and Android updates rec…

    I sometimes ssh into my box with a port forward and starting wayvnc, then connect via tigervnc, I only played a few older/simpler games like this on Steam for a short test, but see…

    Once I had internet connection and discovered LimeWire and then torrent in my later teens hungry for music but not enough money, it was magical. Before that we had a few people wit…

    Is this a new thing? At least I only noticed this recently that instead of looking at sources now it prefers to decompile and read java byte code for some reason.

    Then it tells you nothing will break, spend a bunch of tokens on the migration, hit a wall, having an oops moment and telling you it made a mistake assuming a key fact instead of v…

    Interesting that I have the exact opposite experience with Opus 4.8 being nearly unusable dumb in the past couple of days. I was trying to explain this as the new Sonnet release an…

    If I remember correctly the Pegasus spyware worked only until a reboot and then the attacker had to reinfect the phone again.

    Thats what a reliable party would do certainly, which was my point above. But there is no guarantee really. And there may be people testing their decoder on some test data then att…

    Yes, if it comes from some reliable partner I can report bugs to, or something built in-house. In such environment probably fine. And maybe thats the main audience and not some ope…

    Not everyone. We use both and mostly credit card for online payments that we pay off at the end of the month. It has a limit and it is easier deal with potential fraud vs a debit c…

    My concern is, if decode fails I need to debug WASM added by some other party maybe containing random bugs. Maybe a library of standard decoders maintained and tested by the projec…

    I have a hard time reading slop, but I like the game and wanted to know how it worked, so fought my way through, only skipped the very last part. The issue the author calls out is …

    Both are bad, what you describe is very real, but so is the opposite. That one fire in one place can end up in a total rewrite of numerous layers because the abstraction never anti…

    No, thats not what gets automated. My comment was for the parent where IC roles transformed to agent managment roles, which I think just another role for agents to manage - themsel…

    And isnt that management job also tomorrow's disappearing IC role? A management agent seems quite possible to me.

    LLMs can now quite trivially write Terraform or Ansible code to setup infra, maybe harder for non-engineers to make those prompts for now. But ongoing maintenance and monitoring wo…
