In my experience, point 2(no strategy or plan) was always the problem. AI is not going to help you there. Saying you are AI-native might help you get some funding in this bubble bu…

Thank you for answering. I agree with you that, if used well, LLMs can be useful tools and increase efficiency. Unfortunately, what I am increasingly seeing is an increase in confi…

Question if you don't mind. Would you have considered outsourcing the application you mentioned? As in, paying someone else to do it? To me it is great that LLMs are allowing more …

Perhaps it's my lack of domain knowledge but I am pessimistic about all these magical sounding drugs. There are some horrible diseases out there that are not ageing related that st…

I've been reading articles that are telling me how they're prompting from their phone at 2am(and how they know that's not great) and when they're out driving their kids to their ac…

Oh yeah, that sounds wise to me. Some people don't run the agents on a VM on their own machine and opt for a VPS somewhere. And I was wondering if privacy and security had anything…

Is the trust concern for the agent running in any form on your machine? Like in a VM on your machine as well or do you mean on the host itself? I have read about people giving an a…

In my experience, all of this is a reflection of the work or team culture. You can replace the infra cost cutting with bug squashing and write the same article. As in, is the quali…

The current price insanity has got me to reconsider upgrading a few systems. It made me think of what I actually need vs what I want, never a good idea for consumerism.

That executive has lost any human decency and should be fired.

I don't if you know this, but there was a collection for LXD. Last time I checked, it didn't seem very popular so not maintained very well but it did work. Maybe that could be used…

VM support has been there for quite a while now and works nicely. I think that's what they're referring to. It started out with only system containers and then gained support for V…

Can you elaborate on the "software security that US models" seem to have? According to blog posts I read, the code generated had security problems and naive ones at that. Perhaps i…

Extra impressive considering he has a newborn at home. As an emacs user and fan, I sometimes feel that emacs is pushed into directions it is not meant to handle but the fact that i…

This isn't about the first time ever though. I've been hearing the phrase "get rid of your developers" for a long time now. Let's see. SaaS is all you need, boot camp devs, no code…

Can someone tell me if this is LLM generated content or not? I tried to look for obvious signs but didn't notice anything.

I can empathize with the commenter you're replying to. I still read for pleasure and have to read constantly for work of course. On some days, I feel like I can't. It is like exerc…

For the unresolved photos issue; I am not an iOS user so not sure if there's any application to help you easily achieve that goal on that platform. But in general, you can encrypt …

Shorter work weeks don't mean less work though. Not from the point of view of management, at least. It just means that 5 days are now compressed to 4, probably making the problem m…

You mean there's no excuse for cooldowns? Yeah, there is. Security consultants have for years been saying that you need to always keep your dependencies updated. This is often parr…

I wonder that too. I've been on the receiving end of "it's 90% done, we just need someone to get it over the line for us" way too many times to know that there's going to be a lot …

I've only seen pip give up twice and both times were due to bugs that were actively being worked on and the project dependencies were quite old. Perhaps that's why I am less impres…

"holy sacred programmers" and writing "the same functions again and again" are two extremes. There's a point in the middle where you implement the same function twice perhaps and t…
