What's everyone here talking about? The absolute low-tech solution would be to dedicate a switch for it. If you have decent infrastructure with a managed switch, you can easily create a VLAN. Besides the fact that the…
As a more general rant - people who have maybe used 5% of the feature set of C++ come along and explain why language X is superior because it has feature Y and Z. News flash, C++ has every conceivable feature, it's the…
These libraries already exist. God how people underestimate C++ all the time. Of course you can use a unit type that handles conversions AND mathematical operations. Feet to meter cubed and you get m³, and the library…
There's several libraries, including some supporting units and mathematical operations yielding the correct result types. And as usual, it mostly comes with zero overhead, beyond optional runtime range checking and unit…
SPAs are about APIs, and leaving the rendering entirely to the client. It's a reimagination of ye Olde three tier approach. Perfect for apps.
Are you aware that nowadays you can write SPAs in dozens of languages? It's an entirely different concept. It's certainly not the right technology for a news site, but days ago in a different place, there was for…
Not being connected to the work VPN already slows down my Windows to a near halt since a few unreachable network drives is all it takes to make Explorer go unresponsive. Seems like engineers forget to test these things…
Hallucinations come from lack of information, or rather training data, in a particular field. It is NOT a malicious try at feeding you untruthful answers, nor is it a result of getting trained with misinformation.
Look, it's Apple, Google and Microsoft being at their peak of customer hostility. Each of them constantly push their own browser in their own products.
It already doesn't work if you have humans instead of an LLM. They (humans) will leak infos left and right with the right prompts.
> managing a barely competent junior developer who's only redeeming skill is the ability to type really, really quickly Hits the nail on the head. For an actual junior developer, they'd at least learn over time. With…
"Not selling anything" is a wild take on "would you pay $15 per month".
You are completely missing the argument that was made to underline the claim. If ChatGPT claims arsenic to be a tasty snack, nothing happens to it. If I claim the same, and act upon it, I die.
That's because relying on a TTL simplifies the concept of caching, and makes invalidation trivial, and also inflexible. It's used in DNS, which already was an example here. There is no way to be sure clients see an…
To avoid the same debacle that already happened once with Video Station?
One important thing to note is that everyone has an agenda. Days ago someone wanted to convince me that AI is already outcompeting humans on a broad scale. Yet I go back to ChatGPT and it gives me non-stop…
It's a constant battle though to keep those browser extensions updated, especially since Google decided that extensions cut into their profits and they essentially made them useless.
When it's widely adopted. WebP gets pushed into your series of tubes without your consent, and the browser that you're most likely to use to view them just happens to be made by the same company that invented the codec.…
True. I mentioned JPEG2000 because it had a similar fate, in particular no real reason to use it in the first place.
That's not an argument. HEIC is to HEVC what WebP is to WebM. The lack of support in other products is due to developers not picking up the pace and sticking with "GIF, JPEG and PNG is good enough".
To my knowledge, not even every Google product supports it, but I have not verified support myself. I blame Google for pushing it, but I also blame every third-party product for not supporting it, when it is mostly free…
Yes - the solution to run any illegal activity on the internet: just register the domain in "Russia, China, Iran, or similar country". You should tell the TOR folks about your findings, they can finally shutdown the…
I do like the commitment of registering a whole domain for no other purpose as to be able to spam a single picture, though.
> It's pretty common in the indie game scene That's such a weak argument. If I was an indie game developer, I would use whatever obscure format would offer me the most benefit, since I control the pipeline from the…
WebP is basically a single i-frame from the WebM video codec, which literally was developed by Google to avoid paying license cost for H.264. For which they had great incentive. WebP is to WebM what HEIC is to HEVC. You…
