    I get it, and it draws parallels with debugging and incident response in software dev. Your best tool is good data, if you have more data, you’re able to make good judgement in sho…

    I sort of wish there was a google "ad" search, where its like google search but only for ads, for the rare cases you want to buy something, and are looking through for a compatible…

    Honestly I struggled to get further than 2nd paragraph. Other commenters here also have similar spectrum of opinions, far down the "Enjoy later" mindset

    Jesus no, you could be dead or decrepit by 60. What’s wrong with finding happiness within your limits all the time?

    except Juniors with Claude are now “seniors”. In all seriousness even though deep down I know there’s no replacement for experience, I’ve seen a bunch of new people get impressivel…

    I would say it’s more short term profit. They are happy to cut off the nose and put the rest in the backlog

    You’ve missed the point of original article about the proxy for quality disappearing. LLMs are trained adversarially, if that’s a word. They are trained to not have any “tells”. Wo…

    goddamnit, read for a solid 5 minutes until I realised the rest is paywalled, sigh. No pasty facts isn’t worth another subscription. I have many other interesting things to do

    That’s a shame, though I do see that it is difficult to make any money from what it is. I’m glad they didn’t sell it to someone big for all the user’s data, though it is still earl…

    In the UK I've not been able to find high wattage (10-20W) LED lightbulbs with high CRI, some don't even mention it in listings, let alone SSI, which I have never seen. Where are y…

    except chess is a solved problem given enough compute power. This caused people to split into two camps, those that knew it was inevitable, and those that were shocked

    Since no-one mentioned the Cynefin framework yet: Notice that there's a little fold at the bottom centre of the diagram: Chaotic (unknowable unknowns, etc) things will always resol…

    Nice, download a random binary off the internet and give it your AWS credentials. Please people, inspect the source to your tools, or don't use them on production accounts.

    No-one uses that original OOP at all, no-one sane anyway. The way its used now is for dependency injection. All your logic is in services that are injectable and unit tested. All y…

    not original commenter, but I have. Either through their manipulation, or just being in the same place, doing the same things. Didn't like them as a person, but they were decent to…

    It's almost the same argument, but backwards: You think they are a good person, so you want them to do well. Because they are good, they also want you to do well. Same result, but …

    Err what? That certificate may well have been leaked, but because it expired the bank doesn’t not consider it an issue, no need to revoke it. Certificate validity is binary. either…

    Pay for services that you use instead of forcing companies to rely on ad revenue to run their useful service? I get it though, no one wants to pay for 100s of little free marginall…

    Yea I also spotted that. Never liked the format of “Successful people do X. You should do it too”. Interesting article though, somehow I found goal setting never worked for me well…

    Despite my earlier comment, the way Sentry approaches open source is at least a little better than the majority, so its good that you at least provide an escape hatch that means he…

    Well done! I came to the same conclusion (with the exact same bewilderment steps) as I do love Sentry myself. I will definitely try Bugsink, it’s something i’ve been looking for ag…

    The summary doesn't say anything about availability zones. Does this mean all AZs are experiencing issues? So even if you have HA services spread across all AZs that won't save you…
