The real problem is that Go produces interface implementations dynamically. The determination wether type T implements interface I is made at runtime. So is generation of the neces…

But humans do make mistakes like that (driving into oncoming traffic or driving down a light rail track). For example, here’s a case where a human did it to avoid an ambulance: htt…

Let’s assume the AI does out perform the DR. I still want humans in the loop, interpreting the LLMs findings and providing a sanity check. You can’t hold an LLM accountable. That’s…

How big is the Wire Guard user base on Windows? How often do they ship new versions? My understanding is that: 1. Windows drivers are Attested by Microsoft 2. Windows collects driv…

You can use BGP hijacks to spoof another website. You just need to get a publicly trusted CA to mint a certificate for your new site. This can be done, for example, with let’s encr…

There is no right way to do Spring Boot.The entire idea is broken. Dependency injection is good. It makes it possible to test stuff. Automagic wiring of dependencies based on annot…

To be honest, I’m not surprised that GitHub has been having issues. If you have ever operated GitHub Enterprise Server, it’s a nightmare. It doesn’t support active-active. It only …

I use a DGX spark, with Cosmic as my DE, and it's super awesome. This is a bit of a franekin-distro, as it's ubuntu + nvdia packgages + system 76 packages, but it works pretty well…

The premise seems flawed. From the paper: “we find that the LLM adheres to the legally correct outcome significantly more often than human judges” That presupposes that a “legally …

Some of this is people trying to predict the future. And it’s not unreasonable to assume it’s going there. That being said, the models are not there yet. If you care about quality,…

This is not satire. If you have a large dependency graph, you are going to have a lot of vulnerable stuff. Letting one computer send you patches and the other computer merge it for…

Take a look at pr-bot: https://github.com/marqeta/pr-bot The answer to dependabot, or snyk prs is to automatically merge them once all the status checks pass. This free your devs f…

The article has the headline "AI Misses Nearly One-Third of Breast Cancers, Study Finds". It also has the following quotes: 1. "The results were striking: 127 cancers, 30.7% of all…

Huh? I was commenting that there were no controls and the doctors were given skewed data, so any conclusions of ai ability vs Dr ability seem misplaced. Which seems to be what you …

The description from the summaries sound very flawed. 1. They only tested 2 Radiologists. And they compared it to one model. Thus the results don’t say anything about how Radiologi…

look up the parent tree... There was this statement: > From a Hacker News perspective, I wonder what this means for engineers working on HBO Max. Netflix says they’re keeping the c…

I use Cosmic on a DGX Spark, as my daily driver, and it works pretty well. They don’t have a pop os iso for arm64, but they do have arm64 Debian repo. So I just took DGX os (what N…

Generally with large acquisitions, product integration tends to precede infrastructure integration by years to decades. Look at GitHub as an example, they were acquired in 2018, an…

Not sure why this got downvoted. The technique could be implemented without conditionals, but not in python, and not using iterators. You could do it in C, and use & and ~ to make …

Sigh… Saying the code doesn’t have conditions or booleans is only true if you completely ignore how the functions being called are being implemented. Cycle involves conditionals, z…

Another interesting thing… random data has a high likely hood of disassembling into random instructions, but there’s a low probability that such instructions (particularly sequence…

There's a much simpler way to do this: If you want your library to operate on bytes, then rather than taking in an io.Reader and trying to figure out how to get bytes out of it the…

Has anyone else been able to get "secrets" to work? They seem to be injected fine in the "environment setup" but don't seem to be injected when running tasks against the enviornmen…

I see this a lot ("if you are a startup, just ship a monolith"). I think this is the wrong way to frame it. The advice should be "just do the scrappy thing". This distinction is im…
