It's like it turns everyone into a CEO with all the yes men they could ever ask for! Never goes wrong!

I recently mentioned that my team and most of my dev friends don’t use AI for code on a gamdev forum (we do stuff like distributed consensus, compilers, etc.). I was quickly denoun…

Hard to guarantee it's private if you don't keep it local... I don't have a lot of trust for companies in this space.

As someone in the Venn diagram intersection of "software engineer" and "studied climate/astrophysics/planetary science" in school, reading comments here is painfully disheartening.…

I worked on their Power Play downloadable system to embed games in a local player and also did stuff like add Mojo Jojo and new levels to games like Power Puff Girls Fast and the F…

Alas no. I worked on their Power Play downloadable system to embed games in a local player and also did stuff like add Mojo Jojo and new levels to games like Power Puff Girls Fast …

Doh, I did some work on some CN games back in the day -- but don't see any of those here. Hopefully they keeping adding to it!

Alas, we're back to 1989. Bush did the same to Noriega in Panama when he stopped playing ball with the CIA.

This is what I'm seeing currently at work. YMMV.

Besides search, Android kinda killed Nokia and friends for the consumer phone market.

We're on the verge of ecological collapse, undergoing an insane mass extinction event with ocean acidification and methane release going off the charts. I can't even begin to conce…

I work in distributed systems programming and have been horrified by the crap the AIs produce. I've found them to be quite helpful at summarizing papers and doing research, providi…

VGT?

Yes! Thanks for the interest, hope they're helpful! for HL7: https://hexdocs.pm/elixir_hl7/main.html for MLLP: https://hexdocs.pm/mllp/readme.html

We run a large distributed cluster (currently 4 DCs spanning the US) and use hot code reload for live patches when needed and rolling deployments for our standard releases.

I think that's a good point. Our largest pain point with Elixir is definitely the size of the community and the associated dearth of niche libraries. The technology behind it, thou…

i am still fine in my used 2012 12k prius.

see the novel kiln people and the transparent society essays by David Brin

good god, i would quit in a heartbeat.

Santa Clause was also my complete religious breaking point as a child!

Is there a video of this ui??

We use something like this at scale, similar to Riak's design. We use it to store things like the active state of millions of hospital patients in RAM for high availability (zero d…

It's not hard to learn and my current Fortune 100 has had zero trouble hiring for it.

I used to do this kind of work as a contractor (for logistics and manufacturing), and I've it seen go both perfectly well and tragically wrong. The most common points of failure I'…

So true! I have a tech job at a Fortune 100 building unique and interesting distributed systems in Elixir and get to work on open source libraries through the company. You won't ma…
