The bots can also write Rust instead of C++, doing away with the arcane nonsense accumulated by that legacy language. SCNR.

Bureaucracy gives you leverage against slop. Review seriously, but limit the time that you spend. This will stall the slop. When the culprit complains, tell your boss "I spend X ho…

Writing and reading design documentation can be slower than pair programming. On the other hand, info about code design also belongs into inline documentation or commit messages (i…

It's not just documentation. Everything that makes programming easier is now suddenly valued, because wasting tokens is obviously worse than wasting your employees' time.

This claim is plain malicious. Of course falling asset prices would be excellent for the median person, since they would be less extremely priced out of everywhere. This is one of …

> For that kind of implementation, ... This is the key point, what is the meaning of "zero knowledge" here? It seems that you need to know something about the implementation, even …

The list of tools that Pythonheads present as a definite solution to their problems changes every year, yet the results are still far behind Rust/Scala/Kotlin/C#.

Surpassing DB's punctuality is the first large-scale example of the "Overtaking without catching up" East German slogan coming true.

The "fix everything" button is abolishing zoning laws, and its aggregate cost is negative. Aggregate cost is not the issue preventing problems from being solved.

Mojo is NOT Python compatible (although they initially wanted it to be). So they got all downsides without the upsides.

How is it possible to provide a zero knowledge proof that their circuit works for large problem instances if there is no efficient way to run or simulate the circuit with the requi…

"I believe that almost anything that has been formalised today in any system could have been formalised in AUTOMATH. Its main drawbacks were its notation, which really was horrible…

There are videos on the internet of drones being shot down with an assault rifle out of a 50 year old training plane, 1914 style.

A Bundeswehr worth of equipment is so little nowadays that Bundeswehr itself lost several Bundeswehrs worth of equipment while being at peace for the last few decades.

Americans are very comfortable with eminent domain, as long as it is applied to brown people.

This makes sense, because parking a car does take a similar amount of space as a studio apartment.

1. Java is mentioned in their comparison table. They just don't use it much. 2. There is really no reason to include Java in the search for your preferred language, since Kotlin is…

That's a very low bar. Any language feels consistent compared to C++.

On a national scale, keeping a stock of transformers is peanuts. For this to be viable, they only need to be interchangeable, not identical.

I recommend to block the Linkedin feed with uBlock.

Traveling? Lake home? I am glad to go to work just to not listen to my wife how we are so poor and cannot have nice things.

> how many people here have actually worked at an early stage startup in a lead role Obviously very few, because these roles are impossible to get into. What else did you expect?
