Like the discovery of penicillin by Alexander Fleming in 1928?
When empires collapse, it's usually not caused by a foreign power, but by negligence and corruption from within
What was the desire? Since the desire was a moving, ever changing, target it seems the force was primarily about showing force. Kind of meaningless.
Indeed, power is about convincing others fear your force. Using force is, in a sense, admitting a lack of power.
Yeah! Browsing through the screenshots truly feels like watching vintage porn.
The Iran regime was
obviously going to be a push over.
Not the first forever war initiated as a Blitzkrieg. Not the last either.
> "Audio modality is really challenging to comprehend because of how limited our hearing is"
Would it help to significantly lower the hearing capabilities of the AI system? At Juvoly, we always encouraged GPs to invest in high quality microphone like Jabra Speak, connected through USB. A good mic results in much better audio transcriptions, but maybe that was all for the wrong reasons?
You're right about SVN's guts vs Git. I should have been clearer that I was referring to the client cli only.
Mercurial wasn't as simple as Subversion. But with hg I still felt like understanding 80% of what the tool had to offer and actually being able to mold the timeline the way I wanted.
Git has so many gotchas, bells and whistles that whenever I'm doing something out of the ordinary I'm wondering if there isn't an easier / canonical / smarter way I should be doing it.
The app store looks horrible and barely work. Why would you want to promote your website there?
Indeed, no license burden but you get a maintenance burden instead.
So true.
I can only think of hobby projects, like writing yet another emulator, expression parser or media processor in a new language I'm trying to master.
In a professional setting, you would always diligently explore libraries and only implement your own if there is no suitable alternative.
Does your apple laptop run Linux or MacOS? Do you run Kubernetes locally or only when network permits? What was the reason for targeting Linux rather than MacOS? And what in this context is the value add of using Kubernetes for your development?
Never understood the appeal of Kubernetes to developers, outside of a massive deployments. Always felt like a poor man's Linux for those that insist on using apple or windows desktop.
Experience isn't the problem. I have 20+ years of C++ development, built commercial software in Java, Rust, Python, played with assembly, Erlang, Prolog, Basic.
Played with these coding agents for the last couple weeks and instantly noticed the brainrot when I was staring at an empty vim screen trying to type a skeleton helloworld in C.
Luckily the right idioms came back after couple of hours, but the experience gave me a big scare.
> Cloud companies generally make onboarding very easy, and offboarding very difficult. If you are not vigilant you will sleepwalk into a situation of high cloud costs and no way out. If you want to control your own destiny, you must run your own compute.
Cost and lock-in are obvious factors, but "sovereignty" has also become a key factor in the sales cycle, at least in Europe.
Handing health data, Juvoly is happy to run AI work loads on premise.
That sounds cool, but this quickly gets complicated. Some aspects that need to be addressed:
- where does the automatically defined struct live? Data segment might work for static, but doesn't allow dynamic use. Stack will be garbage if closure outlives function context (ie. callback, future). Heap might work, but how do you prevent leaks without C++/Rust RAII?
- while a function pointer may be copied or moved, the state area probably cannot. It may contain pointers to stack object or point into itself (think Rust's pinning)
- you already mention recursion, compilation
- ...
Interesting. I guess that analogously, we might find that X years after some future AI content production ban, we could similarly start ignoring the low background token issue?
... And what if a competing mobile OS (say iOS or android) received payments or donations from said organization :-)
I think the point is not about us being developers or employees, but about us being a civilian.
But would you be willing to pay for it? Would your company/organization be willing to move?
Indeed. If DRM had the technical merits to protect against copying, why would we need a (law like DMCA) against tinkering with that technology?
