Modern mathematics research can involve CPU intensive tools like mathlib, lean proof assistant.
Having worked in another EU country, I can attest that I paid as much as 56% in taxes, so I believe a guy who says that he works in Germany and pays half in taxes. If you have other data, you are welcome to present it.
Who is making this 'health care argument' you are responding to?
Article 'the' is doing a lot of work. I read it as author understands code but doesn't understand THE code.
Not arguing for not reading test code. A lot can be achieved by instructing agents to balance out the testing pyramid with the right amount of fast end to end tests, property based tests for the right things,…
The "pacing the frontier" claims that they are slowing down intentionally?
Effective use of frontier models involves "driving the build". They can't really do it themselves, human is still involved to tie break complicated tradeoffs and take on deployment, security, financial and other risks.…
Good point. The other corollary is: why would you want to, if you can solve your problem by more easily finding and reusing existing building blocks with a bit of glue code.
Humans will evolve. Some will keep trying to think more. Many others won't. I'm not sure this is that different from previous disruptive tech in that regard. It could be that AI is the tool the world needs to solve…
While humorous and technically true, I believe this misses the point of the comment. It became a lot easier to build your own version of systems to satisfy one's own unique mix of requirements while not worrying so much…
yep, and all those fired and remaining are busy ai-native proofing their careers and tokenmaxxing everything including copy
how long until someone's agent sets up a tunnel for the world to see one's most sensitive, private and embarrassing information or insecure work-in-progress app? granted, for the brew install some massive permissions…
This was a kind of example, and not really the point of my comment. Though to illustrate further, there are many examples one might find of US acting undemocratically even 40 years ago. So, politicians will talk,…
Eh, on a long enough timeline we have seen this and been there before. US is the beacon of democracy and the free world until it is not, and then until it again is. Depending on who is speaking and about whom and when.…
Eh, I prefer to lean on the less dramatic Peter principle.
Oh, the positive externalities of unsolicited penetration (testing).
GitOps offers more benefits than downsides if configured correctly. It is more secure and scalable and auditable than manual apply from workstations. However it should be using short lived (e.g. workload identity),…
This is the way. And the benefit that still makes it more worth it today, is the fact that you can have truly self-service and peer reviewed infra provisioning and don't depend on a single sys admin or several of them…
Feelings don't really matter in the legal world. Statements and actions do.
Agreed. Pretty sure you are supposed to ask for permission before pentesting someone. Hopefully they, being a security company, know that.
I do like when books are wrapped, but to the idea of separating them into parts, I would say probably not worth it. Most books I find myself reading lately are pretty dense, and so my focus is on fitting material in my…
It depends, probably. If we are talking about high end, off the beaten path places, marketing is important. For the $1.50 slice pizza at the hole in the wall in Times Square? I doubt those places are cleaned and no one…
The point of his argument is that if it isn't obvious from code, there is usually an opportunity to make it obvious by rewriting the code. This is often not practical, but it doesn't make it less true in the abstract.…
I find his particular style far from extrimist. I see the delivery as artistic style, serving to make a point. A kind of thought-bait, inviting one to consider the reason behind a jarring argument and hopefully arrive…
Agreed. Asking for small PRs or commits can backfire, unless the work is deliberately scoped into smaller pieces from the beginning. This requires a human design review and planning and is one of the reasons I don't…
