I like this idea, it has the bonus of revealing how much the reviewer actually cares. I bet half the things they wouldn’t take the time to fix themselves.

Exactly, python is not Java. I don’t want it to be. There are perfectly good cases to catch all exceptions like this.

Why does Google suddenly care? Location Services has never been privacy minded. Does this have to do with that 2000 mules thing?
Re:Dev rejects CVE severity, makes his GitHub repo read-only

The CVE industrial complex is real. The majority of CVE I’ve looked into are not really risks. It’s a sea of noise with the occasional super important exception. Good an on this dev.

I felt the same about ai until the newer chatgpt. It’s really better than i am. It’s never perfect, but I don’t think I’ll ever go without it now.

Tell me how an exception works. I’ve seen bugs caused by people not understanding the underlying mechanism. It doesn’t mean one shouldn’t use them.
Re:Ask HN: Has anyone else found it harder to review code recently?

There’s an ability to understand. Most coders really have no clue how their code works. It’s not a brag, nor incompetence. Does your average dev really understand the underlying instruction set? LLM are like having a team of junior devs. I can quickly skim it, test it, ship it. I’ve worked in all sorts of safety related code. I would trust ai code over some of the crap I’ve seen (and probably wrote myself)

I’ve been coding over 20 years. I’m guilty. But I’ve also learned that for most domains it doesn’t really matter if you understand the code, if it work, it works. Of course you have to watch for security and safety issues. Maybe ask an llm to explain the code under review?

This is how i figured out NO would help my heart. Eating cereal colored with beet powder. If i understand the magic happens when it combines with saliva. So chewing beets might help.

It is being used off label all over the place for heart conditions. That’s why i take it. The on label use is actually pretty annoying for the first few months.

I find it odd that it avoids telling you anything, unless it’s code. Then you don’t need to be an expert. Have a question about wire gauges, better ask a professional.

I was under the impression they confuse lights for stars and it messes with them. So if you simulate the sun the probably don’t get confused. You can but red spectrum lights that also are supposed to be bug friendly

I’ve been on heart pumps since 2014, and a brand new one for the last year. They are awesome 75% of the year and totally worthless during the cold months. Technically they work if you don’t mind luke warm air blowing in your face all day long. I also switched to an induction stove and i hate it. The bottom of my food cooks nicely…
