They just need to last 3 years on a PCP for most people. No-one buys cars any more.
Midway through the page I was randomly asked how much I'd be prepared to spend on a new keyboard. It was like a cognitive wrecking ball when trying to concentrate on the article's content.
You utter melt. In what way is that relevant? Go and follow your thought leaders somewhere else.
And now too Diwali, the festival of light, is very popular in many parts of the UK - the only constant is change!
Oh right, now they want government to get involved with their make believe 'currency'...
76 (already a good age) with an existing heart condition and increases HIIT exercise frequency by 25%.
I wonder if they consulted their physician before doing that, and what they recommended?
ish. the 'we don't need no gubmint interference in our currency' crew certainly seem happy to have gubmint help in sorting this mess out.
Headline is still "Binance hacked for $6BN". Too late to control the narrative.
It's 10 months of revenue, but 10 years of reputation.
They conform to EU and UK safety standards (there are enough of them on the roads here to demonstrate that).
Are US safety standards that much higher - seems like a regulatory nightmare over there?

They don't! They may appear to make untruthful statements, but they're making them without any reference to a concept of truth.
"make no mistakes"
"explicitly stated that zero tools would be triggered"
When are people going to stop anthropomorhizing these things and accept that they're bullshit machines?

(and no, the wet dreams of a teenager's interplanetary conquest fetish is centuries old rehash, not original thinking)
typescript is a linter, not a language.
It's mainly used by profitable and/or public sector orgs, so unlikely to have much intersection with the HN crowd.
Sounds like you don't have a good use case here though - you don't need editorial workflows, shared asset libraries etc?
Which is also what tfa says btw
In what sense "separate" though? No shared memory? No IPC? No what?
No-one can ever deterministically test any of this - just expect the worst to happen.
"Don't write any bugs"
Alternatively, and from the top of the HSBC homepage
"We would like to apologise for any inconvenience and continue to monitor the situation, which is also affecting other organisations."
Oh, don't worry. Someone is also blaming the product manager!

If you're an LLM prompter shipping products, you're outputs are more akin to a product managers, not an software engineer's.

I'm not a USian but doesn't the first amendment apply to restrictions by the state?
It also doesn't protect from any consequences of your free speech of course.
Wanted their own postgres container or database? Why should the service know/care how postgres is running?
Most people at large corporates seem to use copilot daily (bundled with O365) to summarize Teams calls and assign actions, rewrite large documents and inflate them back out into PowerPoint decks.
It looks like you can't host it locally as it relies on being hosted by Cloudflare.
Yes but MS are driving that growth so they should really have done some impact analysis.
