Re:Ask HN: How do I examine an undergraduate programming course in the...

Steer clear of the most classic programming problems, don't use problems considering widely known concepts (like prime numbers) but rather define your own concepts that are not as widelybused. Look for/design questions that require the student to recognize edge or special cases and handling them. Combination of these seems to usually throw ChatGPT off

Re:APIs will disrupt RPA. This is obvious to engineers

APIs will surely be the way forward for new, larger scale solutions. However the number of legacy, written to be temporary but never replaced systems is just stunning and anything beyond manual data entry and shuffling is still like magic for _alot_ of business types, so I see the two co-existing for years and decades to come
Re:Ask HN: Is "Low Code" the new word for website builder?
on Friday April 23, 2021 @03:59AM (#26912256)
Sorta, but no. Low code entails more variance as making only websites, or being restricted to creating only certain determined outputs. For me the perks of low-code platforms like MS PowerAutomate are the ability to create simple integrations and processess between systems that are already utilized to some extent, and being able to quickly deploy these automations.
In a sense that they are somewhat clunky and restricting, and only good for some extent of complexity/performance/scalability the comparison to website builders can be made

Having listened to his music quite alot in my teens, sad to see the man go. Just recently stumbled upon a documentary where he outlined the abuse/negligence he suffered as a child, kinda made me understand the contradictory messages of hsi music and apparent struggles.
