    > models write much better code than humans can What? I think this is either over exaggerating model capabilities or you haven't seen much good code from humans? My experience is t…

    The goal post keeps moving because LLM hypeists keep saying LLMs are "close" to AGI (or even are, already). Any reasonably intelligent individual that knows anything about LLMs obv…

    Talking about doing it is virtue signaling. Don't just say, do! If you have a popular repository, share news of your migration to drive others to do the same. VOTE WITH YOUR FEET, …

    At age ~11, I sent a MSPaint design of a phone with two SIM cards that you could switch between physically on a phone. I sent it to Nokia over email :-D. They didn't respond. Dual …

    The main benefit for me to just know and primarily use mermaid is that it integrates with markdown in Azure DevOps and GitHub seamlessly. No need for a text to image build step or …

    This reminds me a bit of MSFTs Kusto language. Such an immensely useful way to slice and dice large amounts of structured data.

    This is false. GDPR is not ignored, I can tell you that much.

    If you were to build a library like `rill` in the Go-way, what would your Batch API usage look like?

    How in the world did they come up with the obfuscated code for this? Surely they must be using a tool?

    Sorry to anyone having this, that sounds awful. Would we easily know if the inverse phenomenon is happening in the rest of us? We're seeing people "better looking" than "they are"?…

    Same as https://www.theverge.com/2024/7/30/24209650/openai-chatgpt-a... ? I don't have Twitter, so I'm not 100p sure.

    .NET is a strong contender, I would say. The standard library is immensely useful, and many things you may wonder if you need are available as Nuget packages, coming from the same …

    I don't know about that comparison. CoffeeScript transpiled to JavaScript- Kotlin doesn't transpile to Java, it compiles to JVM bytecode. So in a sense, from a tooling and compiler…
