Flipping through the source code is like a time machine tour of tech's evolution over the past 50 years. It made me wonder: will our 2025 code look as ancient by 2075? And, btw, gr…

I wrote this post in December 2023, and rediscovered it today. Seems like it hasn't dated yet, even though the AI landscape evolved a lot in the dev tooling space.

Yes, indeed, in this particular case it is exactly as you said. However, I've seen this in the tech industry, that's a surprising bit for me

There is a discussion about that on the security stackexchange ( https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/133239/what-is-... ). The TLDR: > SHA-2 family of hashes was designed …

Author here: thanks for reading the post. It's great to hear that Zig covered both cases. However, I'd still prefer the opposite behavior: a safe (without truncation) default `bcry…

I like following the OpenAI vs. NYT case, as it's a great example of the controversial situation: - OpenAI created their models by parsing the internet by disregarding the copyrigh…

Indeed, nostalgia is a great selling point

Since those are mostly old movies, my immediate thought was: "maybe it's a new creative way to create a new income stream for hard-to-sell-otherwise assets?". If a decent enough nu…

That's a great way to view it, I haven't looked at it from this angle before, thanks. > What is anti-competitive tho, is stuff like Apple Music and Spotify, where spotify has to pa…

I've always found this approach of reducing the number of employees unwise from the company perspective (but pretty good for the employees, though). While the unsatisfied employees…

I see your point. There are a few objective moments, imho, that I'd consider, though: > a team that will not run out of money and sell my data While "not run out of money" is true,…

I have 2 conflicting feelings about this: - I'm glad to see this, as it might be an easily accessible alternative to Facebook events, which I tend to miss as I'm checking my FB onl…

I'd say not as of today's state of AI tools, but it's difficult to predict the future. So far, I can see many excited non-tech people who can build simple things or demos. But the …

I've just googled, and herring gulls are indeed the birds I was referring to here in Norway, good catch. We have the same, actually, when tourists/guests of the city are easier tar…

Author is here. Thanks for sharing my post. I'm open for discussions / questions about this topic, as well as curious to hear thoughts on the subject.

Got it, learning is something that can be acquired relatively quickly, while evolving needs generations. Thanks for the explanation.

It's quite a creative approach. I have a question about it, though, as the person whose expertise is far from biology: how much time does it take for the species to adapt / evolve …

A good one! Appreciated the links that showed CEOs actually discussing such a schedule. I, personally, find this ridiculous. A simple math: 70 / 5 = 14 hours per day if 5 days 70 /…

Here where I live, home assignments with the follow-up tech discussion are way more common than the leetcode-like interviews. Therefore, I can't say that the process has already ch…
