having coded with several RTEs, this just triggered some PTSD
in my day job doing enterprise web apps at a mac shop 16G became unusable for the engineers 3-5 yeas ago. i managed to weasel into them getting me a 64G M1 Pro in 2022 (now they won't buy us any higher than 32G). i'll…
i probably don't understand. the main thought i have re: llm coding is, why i would want to talk to a insipid, pandering chatbot instead of having fun writing code? but, as an engineer, i have to say if it works for you…
if you have to understand exactly what you're doing, why not just... do it?
yup. "the survivors are the lucky ones" is fantasy.
The book says that that's exactly what it's supposed to be, to inspire people to talk about it. But (also from the book) the war games the USA runs around these situations always end in a massive nuclear exchange. Sure,…
that's a whole different piece of software that it doesn't come with out of the box lol. Copilot was what i was looking for, thank you. I have it installed in Webstorm already but I haven't messed with this side of it.
vscode comes with that out of the box?
what are you using for this? one thing I can't wrap my head around is how anyone's idea of fun is poking at an LLM until it generates something possibly passable and then figuring what the hell it did and why, but this…
for the codebase i work on, i made a rule that "functions do what the name says and nothing else". this way if the function does too much, hopefully you feel dumb typing it and realize you should break it up.
I built a ribbon mic from a kit a while ago, and only broke the ribbon once putting it together! https://www.bumblebeepro.com/ Of course, as soon as i tried to record my guitarist with it, he cranked his amp and broke…
whelp this is making this meeting go way faster
did this recently and it totally works
wholeheartedly agree, git rebase -i is a game-changer once you get comfortable with it
I definitely did not see that coming lol
Huh, I (from New Jersey) somehow made it through the British Museum without realizing "artefact" is spelled differently in British English.
Isn't showing students where you can find a boatload of real-life examples of the kinds of things their studying kind of obviously a good idea?
that's one thing I love about living in Jersey City, NJ. there's a thriving street art program: https://www.jcmap.org/
it's that money talks, especially to people who don't understand technology enough to spot obvious bullshit. which of course isn't a justification for anything other than why the price of bitcoin is relatively…
and we're back
been down since 9:30AM EST and the status page isn't showing anything...
If a law gets made saying what MSTR is doing is illegal and they keep doing it, I'm pretty sure what to do involves the police, SEC, etc. Why would one think it's anyone else's problem?
My thoughts exactly. I just told people I had a major win this week by getting a buddy of mine who started as an intern at my last job a full-time software engineer position at my current company (big pay jump & next…
i actually really like the font, but I'm super turned off by the copy. i feel like this kind of writing belongs on a wine bottle or in a calvin klein catalog. to each their own, i suppose.
