I had it write an ansible job to enable a service with a specific name, and I got what I expected: something that looks correct a first glance, but with some subtle errors.

Disagree with your disagree. I understand there’s a recession and security people have to justify their salaries. The most secure system imaginable is for your users to shut their …

What do you mean by “fundamental problems.” I’m using chrome right now, it works great, and there’s no better browser. I assure you they’re not embarrassed they didn’t write it in …

How many bugs should a software project have? You can’t justify a rewrite of working code because there might be bugs.

I’m not sure what you’d gain is worth the cost. What’s the cost in dollars and cents of SQLite cves over the past 20 years, and what would the cost be of rewriting that entire code…

We sure are all great on here aren’t we? Plaudits to everyone involved.

Irrelevant. You can get a full amino acid profile by combining plant based sources. It is basic high school biology that there’s less energy available the higher up on the food pyr…

But solutions don't just fall out of the sky. Saying that technology will solve the problem risks a bystander effect, where nobody is packing, reducing emissions, or working on cle…

We have that to. We even have post Mortem debugging. Did you know you can load a core dump into gdb? To me it seems like a new generation of developers is reinventing the wheel bec…

This is silly. That's like saying that speed limits don't work because everybody goes over them. Even if people don't 100% comply with standards, the fact that they exist reigns in…

When I read code, I understand it, its intentions, and its output. I'm not simply replicating things that I've read before. I learned about inheritance in java in school. When I go…

Could the derived work be created without the source?
