I believe it was removed actually because it's not a strong indicator of the real fault, there was an old article on this but could only find this more recent summary https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20250121-00/?p=11...

More like ads passion, truly a lot of better results from searching using your favourite search index..

I personally went with https://endeavouros.com/ in the end, so far working really great, I appreciate Linux distributions will have different audiences which is great, I think regardless of distribution though it seems like a lot more software (and hardware) is 'just working' and it's actually delightful to use the computer again, kudos to many hard working people making free software

I will say, for anybody reading and finds it in any way uplifting, I have been a Windows user for 30 years, been a .net developer for 5 years at one point, groaned at how bad the 'Linux desktop' always was, but this year I finally switched to using Linux instead of Windows and I think it's because the inflexion point is starting to hit more of the masses.

This has to be setting off some alarm bells internally, a well written postmortem on an occasional issue, great, but when your postmortem talks about learnings and improvements yet major outages keep happening, it becomes meaningless..

I think the point they are making us that the intermediate representation the model works with is parametric and then converted to step for use with other tooling, I could be wrong, but I understand the argument both ways of their solution enables editing of that parametric version before conversion out.

Truly awesome analysis, it's great that Asus spends this effort to quality check their hot garbage.. oh wait..

I think actually Linux has come a long way and recently I actually dual booted fedora with windows and fedora was easily my main choice unless gaming.. unfortunately when updating from 41 to 42 there was clearly an issue with the GPU not having drivers for acceleration or cuda, updating the drivers bricked the OS immediately and while I could recover, I spent hours and hours on this and could never get the GPU drivers installed again without bricking it.. ultimately I realised how at mercy of drivers Linux is. I hope though that in the next few years things improve as windows is dismal to work on these days

This was my view once, but practically the languages have their own ecosystem strengths, now I think most of the major languages have similar concepts, async await, etc.. instead we now teach transfer your skills, and tbh I think it makes for a more interesting culture that's adoptive and excited by tech, and also learns better

The connector on the main body is just exceptionally questionable, I see it being a big issue of getting broken or worn and then non trivial repairs.

Anybody else get a feeling it was Volexity that did all this research? Interesting story none the less

I think the most exciting aspect here is this might actually push JavaScript to add some missing features that can make a lot of difference, the pipeline operator for example can really improve the design of JavaScript code and has been proven already in several languages, C#, swift, kotlin to name a few I know

It actually reads distinctly not ai written, but calling things ai is vogue now

Any company with sufficient size will fail to incentivise the things they claim at the top, unfortunately the impacts of decisions (especially during austerity) are poorly understood, so even the supposedly best intending will fail once you reach a size

What unique position does this browser have? in the nicest way, truly nobody cares, both are pet projects

Which kinds of use cases?

By 2019, typescript was for some time dominant over flow and had won the js ecosystem, so either the author was naive to this or isn't quite portraying the story well.. I think it should be fine for the author to say they had personal preference over something like flow and so you developed tools to their own preference

I'm dubious that a constraints system would ever be considered, CSS has so far had some strong goals around it's predictably on layout cost.. that said, Houdini layout proposal is the closest to your comment, offloading layout to an isolated js context https://github.com/w3c/css-houdini-drafts/blob/main/css-layo... .. but honestly flex and grid, plus other things like containment have solved so many things for folks now that there's just far less demand for improvement than the days before flex

The browser in this adversarial scenario is also in control of the audio context too

Also, while the cost of tokens is lower, let's argue it's cheap enough not to care. Reading 1m tokens surely isn't realistic for latency?

I think this is the crux of it, if something works for awhile then actually that's fine, as an industry we over index and scare new developers towards complexity. The counter is true too, what works at scale doesn't at non scale - not because of tech, but because holistically your asking for a lot, a lot of knowledge, a lot of complex tech to be deployed by a small team.

I'm not entirely sure what parasitic upper class is, but getting paid over 2 million while the company you are in charge of dives, and then in response saying you should be earning 5x more.. truly nobody needs that kind of money.. maybe this isn't 'parasitic upper class' but it's certainly what's wrong with the world

It's not entirely unlikely that the llm is informed exactly what it's source data is, with the hope that it can potentially make corrections to transcription errors

Especially wild for GitHub, I would have thought they had the entirety of 'git foo' codified up with actual parsers by now, but I guess a regex will always do..

Wow, I was outraged just at the thread already, but this is just shocking..

That's true, I'll feel immense relief to hear "the responsible person has been fired".

Done and dusted, the angels in management hunted down the demon with the spanner that couldn't be bothered to do his job. He's probably just doing donuts in his lambo the cheeky beggar.

It's mind blowing to me, as someone who's built a SAAS and then talked to customers and ultimately their CTOs and CDOs that KFC and co ended up using such a service, either they would isolate the level of data exposed to the service and trust them on their contract - and then ruin them in court, or they would require some kind of compliance like SOC2 which should at least mean the solution was pen tested, and any pen tester worth anything will immediately find firebase is part of the solution and immediately test access rules..

The fact that the company/CEO/cto seems to just get away with this is depressing, because why should anyone else? it's not good business sense to invest in security if there's no serious repercussions

This is very true, and with regard to product success, the opposite effect here is a sad story - a tool full on lots of small annoyances is death by a thousand cut because each is hard to describe it doesn't seem worth explaining and so you get no telemetry for why nobody uses your product.

it may do, but it has prior use already: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe...
