I kinda feel this bench-marking thing with Chinese models is like university Olympiads, they specifically study for those but when time comes for the real world work they seriously lack behind.
Re:Astrological CPU Scheduler on Tuesday February 03, 2026 @07:22AM (#46870106)
the system works for several days, weeks or months before a bug happens to surface it is complete nonsense not those you missed something simple bugs, it is deep within the infrastructure of your system, you call your friend to cancel that event you were planing only to find out he is also wrestling with a sudden bug, you bang your head but can't solve it, the next day you compile the project and it works again. if astrology can't explain this I don't know what can?
although our internet is whitelist-blocked and I can only read the comments here, this reminds me of something my friend said some years ago, he said my car is the extension of my limbs and I can feel the limits of my car similar to my hands and feet
the move don't have to be permanent, there are alternatives and as we increase our usage and give active feedback and commit to invest even little money in them, they will improve too. I've seen this pattern a thousand times the monopoly gets worst and worst until a revolutionary new tech will rise it applies to social concepts, business sectors, companies, mother-in-laws, etc.

Re:GraphQL: The Enterprise Honeymoon Is Over on Sunday December 14, 2025 @02:03PM (#46265757)
using graphql specifically Apollo was one of my regrettable decisions when I was designing a system 3 years ago, one that haunts me still today with wired bugs, too much effort to upgrade the version while prev version still have bugs etc. and I lost performance and simplicity of rest on top of that
Re:Google De-Indexed My Bear Blog and I Don't Know Why on Friday December 12, 2025 @01:08PM (#46246814)
exactly my experience, suddenly thousands of non indexed pages, never figured out why, had to disband the business as it was content website selling ads.

Re:TIL: `satisfies` is my favorite TypeScript keyword on Sunday November 23, 2025 @12:32AM (#46021043)
to our defense, we want to build stuff not become ts wizards. also I've worked with libraries with heavy heavy typing that it was a nightmare if you wanted to use their lib in any other way than what they have imagined.
Re:What If Tariffs? on Sunday October 26, 2025 @06:22AM (#45710596)
Do we still remember that Tariffs are supposed to raise the price of foreign goods and make domestic goods more reasonable for buyers? it targets buyers and this is how it works regardless of how it is presented to the public, I don't imagine lots of supporters if presented as it is.
Re:A Technical Look at Iran's Internet Shutdowns on Sunday July 13, 2025 @05:59PM (#44554141)
this is much more severe than in China. I've never been completely shut of Internet before. each time one of my servers had access to global Internet. this time no connection whatsoever. I hope people realise that encryption needs transmission, with no wire to transfer data encryption won't help you

Re:Rsync replaced with openrsync on macOS Sequoia on Monday April 07, 2025 @05:05AM (#43609355)
I'm with you on this, I think that data is 99% of what is important and the rest can be recreated or improvised and if in your system you rely too much on file metadata your need more engineering

Re:How to Use SQLite as a NoSQL Store on Thursday May 02, 2024 @12:27AM (#40232699)
rdbms with dynamic json column is totally different from nosql mindset and design patterns, if you are going to design your data in a relational matter but with dynamic attributes rdbms are still better at the job
Re:My $500M Mars rover mistake on Wednesday November 29, 2023 @01:25PM (#38463092)
So let me share mine, it goes like hey can you correct this issue directly on the database of 5 years of corporate financial data? and in midst of testing and looking for the issue I wrote a delete with incomplete where clause that would delete lots of data, fortunately it was stopped because of a constraint violation, I still remember the adrenaline rush when I was processing what just happened

Internet in Iran is steps away from being completely shut down like that of North Korea, mainstream privacy software like vpn software, shadow socks even tor has been utterly disappointing, so help if you can
So basically tanks are at the pinnacle of driver safety

Not directly related to this article but doesn't aggressively blocking tracking in this way create a tracking monopoly for browsers, extensions and apps?
