Could be the Japanese version of getting a friend to "save them from the date" by calling to pretend it is an emergency.

Couple of funeral related ones, couple of odd customs, and the rest are "imagine what an overbearing parent would say to their 6 yo using chopsticks"
You could compare phone and watch coords assuming phone can be left in one spot.

Rewrite bias. Yoy want to also rewrite the Rust one in Rust for comparison.

How do they know the revenue was booked in Germany?

Damn, you reject my bid because it was too high. Nvm.

10% tax on what? The ads? The services?

It's the S in IoT plus the S in LLM and MCP. Lots of S!
Maha is an Arabic name too.

I agree with this. Should be the standard. As should salary amounts on job ads.

I was wondering what that imploding sub would feel like. Would you register it at all.

Yes those victorious warriors will find a way to split into 2+ warring factions.
Re:Human coders are still better than LLMs on Thursday May 29, 2025 @08:49PM (#44131748)
So LLMs have sweated to debug a production issue, got to the bottom of it, realised it is worth having more unit tests so values that and then produces a solution that has more unit tests. So when you ask the LLM to write code it is opinionated and always creates a test to go with it?
Re:Human coders are still better than LLMs on Thursday May 29, 2025 @08:47PM (#44131738)
I think by context they meant context as in common usage not context window size.

That grass is not #00FF00 there. Cory's recent essay on uber for nurses (doctors are next) and law is only second to coding on tbe AI disruptors radar plus both law and medicine have unfriendly hours for the most part.

Happy to hate myself but earn OK money for OK hours.

Have you considered dev rel, or perhaps better platform or dev tooling teams at 1000+ engineer organisations?

Whether that us Google depends on if you want to work on their custom tooling or instead work on stacks that are transferable. I imagine the latter

These might require leetcode like entry but once you are in it can be good. However might be worth networking to see what team you'd want to be in first.

Those mountain queues look sad. Like people queuing in the city for ramen. I'd rather go to a "boring" nature reserve but with no people there.

Nice line of defence! Ofc. people should avoid a situation where a secret on screen is worth something. Use MFA, VPN, key vault, JWT, OTP etc. etc.

All you need to build a great app server is PG, certbot and a great app server.
The collolary of URLs that last forever is we have both forever storage (costs money forever) and forever institutional care and memory.

Where URLs may last longer is where they are not used for the RL bit. But more like a UUID for namespacing. E.g. in XML, Java or Go.

We are smart enough to build the intelligence! Not just AI. We use computers to solve all kinds of physics and maths problems.
