Can someone tell me how this stuff is any different from the 90's let's use UML for code gen and how it's not going to fail in the same way?
In my experience, spec drift is the main reason why none of these tools work. Maybe they work for one shot greenfield feature generation but in a large, multi developer long lived code bases, specs rot and end up being more pain than they are worth.

I'm sure many of you work for companies where various AI tools are being made available and IT departments asking for feedback on those tools. The IT departments are allocating in some cases unlimited budget in the hopes that something comes out as a winner and sticks out eventually...For example the models from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google etc. can be accessed via:
- IDE integration, e.g. VS...
This is what happens when there's no effective opposition. Where are the dems? Where's the press?
This. I've reported scammers so many times in Facebook, it's so obvious but obviously it's not a priority for them.
Oh man Visual Assist. Was it whole tomato software or something like that? It was amazing back in the day!
Or alternatively, why would SQLite be not as performant as Redis in embedded context?
Apart from legacy projects written in Kotlin, after Java 21/23, what's the argument for using Kotlin anymore, especially that it's a proprietary language?
That also created the biggest singular transfer of wealth. So your argument is that the peasants are no longer starving and well fed. If that's the ambition level you're happy to live by then there's no further comment.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to have a standard place where people could share database designs and build up a collection of well designed, well tested database designs?Many years ago I remember there was a UK based site where some DBA would curate lots of standard schemas but I can't find it now.
It's 2024 and Linux is still catching up with Windows NT?
What is low code anyway in 2024?
For example, is AWS Amplify or Firebase low code?
So it's 2024 and Linux still doesn't have what Windows NT had 30 years ago?
Exactly. Came here to say the same thing. I live in zone 2 and I'd say that majority of the households don't own a car because they don't need one. We only got a car after we had kids and used to Uber around when we needed a car, a lot cheaper than full time car ownership.
Can someone tell me what's the advantage of eBPF over a user mode driver? The article makes it look it eBPF is have your cake and eat it too solution which is too good to be true? Can you run graphics drivers in eBPF for example?
Peak HN right here. Top comment is on semantics but not on the original content.
Young me would've seen this as an astounding feat of engineering.
Old old me sees this as something to be scared of.
Multimillionaire tech bro returns a $4k VR headset because he's unhappy.
The end.
That would ultimately mean lesser litigation and lawyers. Sounds like a very commie thing to say.
Wait till your grocery store starts surge pricing.
So IEEE is now allowing click bait articles from commercial vendors?
This is why I think that C++ will be around in the next 50 years but Rust? I can't tell.
Tauri can use a separate browser runtime if required. The use default is a space saving mechanism.
Wait you're the guy who wrote the mature optimization book, right?
That VC funding table is everything that's absurdly wrong with VC money.
How TF is Postman worth $434M at $5.6B valuation?
I'm sorry but under Elon X has become a platform where racists, xenophobes, conspiracy theorists, antisemites, islamophobes etc. have thrived - the ADL blame game from Elon smells of deflection from the reality that advertisers don't want to be associated with a platform that mainstreams unhinged content.
Why would anyone want to do a major IPO like this in Brexit Britain?
> Apple famously doesn't do any of this with your iPhone
Maybe that's why 50% of iPhone users still don't know that they can use long press on they keyboard (or space bar) to gain cursor control - and this is just one example.
Have a look at this -

The most misunderstood part about Islam is that how practical the religion is - Islam expects believers to give it their best shot, within reason and without being judged by some rigid binary rule.
It's perfectly okay to not fast for 22 hours and it's also okay if you can make it. Islam prioritizes health and well being.
