I’m not sure why you’ve taken so much offense and made so many aggressive replies to being told that you misunderstood something, but again - none of my comments are contradictory. You have repeatedly confused yourself…
I am beginning to think you did not read anything in the posted link and just imagined what you think it's about. Your comments do not make any sense. > As to your poor analogy, it's more akin to saying that you hate…
We have multiple public figures, politicians and business owners, openly committing felonies and bragging about it daily. I don't know why you think this is a deterrent. The sitting president just offered an open bribe…
In what way does their lack of traffic resilience demonstrate a counter to their position? Their position is not that load balancers and edge nodes are bad. If I say I hate oversized trucks because one ran me over, my…
I am not sure what is confusing you here, but just to be clear: I have been working as a developer for about 15 years. I have not worked for the same company that entire time.
I don't know what kind of things you are inferring from my comments, but they are quite clear and do not contradict eachother. I'll ask you to stick to the literal text of my words rather than guessing new meanings for…
Your job doesn't have to be that way. You can't always change your circumstances, but if you work to make little changes to improve your environment, the people that work with you probably will too. My current team is…
I was really wondering what these replies were talking about until this one - when I remembered a guy I used to work for that was just like this. I think I have been pretty lucky the last 5-6 years of my career at…
I don’t know what job you think I have, but my job is to identify and implement solutions to problems, not figure what problems exist from someone else’s contrived answer to the problem.
That’s a very silly statement. I’ve been asking that question for over a decade and it’s the question that makes me a better developer.
"What problem are we trying to solve?" is a question I have to ask constantly in corporate development environments, and rarely does anyone presenting the task to be done actually know the answer! It's very frustrating.
While not my technical first, it was the first of real consequence for me as well. And then I got so frustrated that I went to write my own forum software! And showed it to my friend, who promptly showed me how badly I…
My apartment complex came to install keypads and centrally managed smart thermostats and I would not let them. Thankfully my lease was old enough that I was able to argue against it. I don’t want a 3rd party company…
Sometimes I wonder if the people working at frontier AI labs even talk to other humans anymore. Reading this little essay started out normal, but soon felt like a look into a disturbed and worrying mind, and if you find…
If you don’t think that China’s models have the capability to make POST requests to an HTTP endpoint, that is a very silly statement to make. Unless what you meant by capability is the story presented that these models…
That’s an incredible strawman, and I appreciate the silliness of immediately suggesting the most complicated and ridiculous way to interpret the possibility of what I said, but no, not at all. That could certainly be…
There’s a pretty simple Occam’s Razor for this. The Chinese AI labs don’t need to stage elaborate guerrilla advertising campaigns to drive up capital funding interest.
When I do use it, I try to only use it to do things I can already do. I don’t want to solve a new problem with an LLM programming assistant anyways - that’s the fun part of my work, why would I get rid of it?
I don't think that difference applies to anything in my comment at all. At no point did I imply that general-use AI could do those things - my point was that general-use AI cannot even do the things its designed for…
I believe that this comment is exactly the intended outcome of this “incident” and these reports. I implore you to approach these situations with at least a hint of cynicism. These “advanced foundation models” escaped…
It’ll work sometimes. You’re using a non-deterministic algorithm to generate output. If you want deterministic rules applied to it, you have to use deterministic systems to do it.
I've only had to hire a lawyer once, and it was $2,500 to have them file a couple papers and speak to the judge once. You're paying for their experience, just like an engineer - only it's often much higher stakes than a…
There is probably something you can do to only apply some rules to the actual changed lines in a git diff. You may have to write your own linter for that specifically.
I am a bit confused about your stance. You said you didn't need to see them on Bluesky to avoid it, why is this different for X?
