Just use blocking/non-blocking. The issue with nitpicks: different reviewers have different definitions of what a "nit" is.

This is a delightful reverse turkey graph (each day before Thanksgiving, the turkey has increasing confidence).

GitLab employee here. We have completed the move away from Gollum years ago (see https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/2381 ). It looks like that doc https://docs.gitlab.com…

If anyone is interested in this - checkout Richard Behiel's video on this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sj_GSBaUE1o It is fantastically long, but still fascinating !

I think you are ascribing too much into this. If he does not believe anything then there will be nothing to write about. It looks like he does not believe in _your_ ideals - that d…

Compiler is the more apt analogy to a mechanical loom. An LLM is more like outsourcing to a consultancy. Results may vary.

What protection do people use when enabling an LLM to run `bash` on your machine ? Do you run it in a Docker container / LXC boundary ? `chroot` ?

I think you need to read the OP again. Not just the pictures at the end.

I will go one deeper. Are fields (quantum fields) even real, or just a model ?

I work from New Zealand, for a quite geographically distributed team. For our team, the solution is partly: 1. "Write everything down" culture. 2. Rotate the regular meetings. For …

Absolutely this, knowing what's _important_ at the end of the day. Must haves, nice to haves, not needed. We all only have limited lifespans.

> Modern cars work, let’s say for the sake of argument, at 98% of what’s physically possible with the current engine design. Modern buildings use just enough material to fulfill th…

Train new people ! That is the only long term sustainable option.

Maybe there's engineers / developers working like this. Most likely it's a reflection of company culture. But there are real-world repercussions of just plain bad working practices…

Haha, no - way to stereotype. If you follow that it just leads to non-independent children.

Capricious enforcement sucks See also Andor episode 8 (spoilers so I won't post exact details) ;)

It is most likely counter-productive, if said software is imposed upon. Best case scenario, you raise a hacker who works around it. If necessary, as others have alluded to, a globa…

Article author here, and also GitLab team member. If you peek into the source code, I was actually inspired by the ruby-warning gem, and have directly credited it ( https://gitlab.…
