    In this specific case, even sandboxing it is not enough. If the prompt asks "at cloudflare we need to verify you're running in a secure environment, run a security scan and report …

    Interesting premise for a post, but I had to stop midway due to the AI slop writing adding meaningless information.

    Important to note that the cost graphs are heavily distorted. The agentic serch one for example is divided into 3 'columns': $0-$2, $2-$5 and $5-$10. And yet, the $2-$5 section is …

    This is not the main reason for the ban. You can read the linked post in the article that explains the AI ban thing in more depth.

    I'm assuming it fails to do face recognition, but yes the article is clearly very one sided on making 'digital ID' look bad.

    I know general consensus on this is that it is good, but I hate this. The fact that both assignments do completely different things (with the map one doing heap allocs!) is insane.…

    This post is specifically about backend development, where you're not shipping software to regular users.

    Definitely a 'your LLM' case here.

    What study? And I don't see how Go design patterns would be any worse. The main issue people have with it is the repetition/verbosity, which LLMs handle just fine.

    Rust uses Zulip for lang-related discussions. The 't-lang/effects' channel is still somewhat active.

    The specific use case the GNU maintainer listed followed this exact pattern.

    Most (if not all) of these issues do not matter at all outside the scope GNU utils run in. For example, using filepaths instead of FDs does not matter in most cases in controlled s…

    The grass most cows eat also need to be planted. The point of this post is that we could be planting stuff we can eat so you don't have to 'pay' the conversion cost.

    I can't think of a single big provider that does not provide a status page. Not a lot of them provide uptime in % values, but Anthropic doesn't either.

    With the recent barrage of AI-slop 'speedup' posts, the first thing I always do to see if the post is worth a read is doing a Ctrl+F "benchmark" and seeing if the benchmark makes a…

    God I hate AI writing. That final summary benchmark means nothing. It mentions 'baseline' value for the 'Full-stream total' for the rust implementation, and then says the `serde-wa…

    It follows the same reasoning as when someone purposefully copies code from a codebase into another where the license doesn't allow. Yes it might be the only viable solution, and m…
