It’s just a new tool. It isn’t outsourcing. It sounds like the person you’re replying to uses it the same way I do which is basically as a way to quickly brainstorm solutions. It acts as a rubber duck that forces you to explain the problem clearly but it has the added benefit of suggesting mostly correct code. It’s a bit like pair programming where you’re telling it the high level things to do and it’s hammering out the boilerplate while you also review in real time and point out mistakes as they happen.

I think you’re completely wrong about new devs producing worse code with this new tool. On the contrary, they’re going to be able to learn things it took you years to master in a matter of months since they now have a private tutor/mentor/reviewer/domain expert/consultant on call 24/7 for $20 a month.

As for using generated content as input, Microsoft has published a few papers showing that using curated generated content can be used to train specialized models that are more competent in their domain than the original models and the kicker is they didn’t even use humans to curate the content, they just used existing language models!
The RTÉ radio production is essentially word-for-word complete, fully cast & wonderfully performed. It’s my recommended on ramp to the novel for anyone intimidated by the prose style.

Ironically (intentionally?), Joyce simultaneously wrote wonderfully for the spoken word form, but insisted on typography that makes who’s saying what often obscure.

There is a problem that the age demographic has changed.

There is the ever increasing problem of more people drawing down state pensions, using the NHS and social care, than there are young tax payers to support them.
I think you can monitor things "as a developer" and you can, and should... but let's face it, nobody is really watching that stuff.

Better to tell the marketing teams to set up their own monitors and metrics.

It could be Google Analytics, it could be UptimeRobot. Or whatever they want to use.

Good for them to set monitors of every page that gets more than 1% traffic.

Good to monitor for the HTTP Response Code (especially if there's a WAF involved), simple content check (like the page title, to make sure something didn't get redirected), "too many hops test" for more than 2 hops to get to a destination, page load speed, and of course uptime. Most tools also will alert you if your SSL Cert or Domain is about to expire. Kinda useful. Good to monitor on every major vanity URL redirect as well... so like mysite.com/some-promo.

Setting this stuff up is SO EASY... but few people do it correctly / consistently -- so it's good to ask them to check once a month if they have all the monitors they need. Just grab the GA data and set a monitor on any page URL that gets more than 1% traffic... easy to just drop the data from GA into a CSV and import it into UptimeRobot. 2 minutes a month and you have amazing monitoring. Really important for monitoring to be run from a 3rd party location -- not from the same server, or behind the same firewall as your corporate network, but run from a location similar to what your real users are seeing.

From the dev side... having good logs so you can diagnose issues. But Let's face it, nobody has time to monitor and respond to things unless it's been escalated. So just let the marketing team / ecommerce team escalate the things they care about, and just make sure you've got enough logs and ways to diagnose the issues they report.
Sure, let's just all have to turn off a new setting every month.
I disagree that it's worse. From everything I've read about mag chloride it's still corrosive but much less so than traditional road salt.
CloudLinux OS 8 and 9 in a post Redhat World
Yes. What makes people smarter or wiser is precisely that they work to get to the positions they hold (even if those positions are mistaken), and never stop questioning themselves or evaluating information that could change their position.

People seriously overvalue "being right". Discovering you're wrong is far more valuable and is worthy of celebration. It means you learned something, and are just a little less ignorant as a result.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_Belt It's still a mix often times but it's totally salt in some areas still.
Could you elaborate on Cloudwatch metrics?
I don't know whatever weird psychology junk you're talking about. I bought an iPhone Mini because it's literally the only phone on the market that fits in the human hand. iOS sucks and I'd love to go back to Android, but there are zero Android phones of a usable size available for purchase. So iPhone it is.

It could be when all the brands are owned by a couple of corporations, which are chaired by a couple of large investment firms.

You know for a fact that big tech was doing a no poaching agreement in 2005, but can't wrap your head around the fact that corporations can collude on a price hikes in 2023?
Some people have little interest in those things. You've also really only listed solitary activities. Sure you can do some of these things "with people", but it's a far cry from more social activities.

To answer your first question: a lot. There's people that are very different from you, that really don't do well without these interactions. They expect to go out 1-3 times a week or at least monthly. Small area community events can be awkward if you aren't from town, don't know everyone, who all grew up together.

Yeah, you're buddy might come over now and then for target practice. However this is very different from social events city dwellers rely on.

Well damn, you learn something new every day.
So glad to see this as the top comment.

Specific pg case in point. In the early stages of the Twitter acquisition, pg mocked others for saying that Musk didn't know what he was doing wrt Twitter. Then, a couple weeks or months later, pg sent out a tweet complaining about something in Twitter that had broken, pg expressing the sentiment that he was baffled by the level of incompetence.

Now, I don't necessarily think this represents a complete change of mind, but pg was roasted pretty significantly online for his new sentiment. But it wasn't because pg "changed his mind", it's because he was so condescending to others who viewed Musk's management skills negatively to begin with. Furthermore, he only tweeted out his negative opinion when something specifically affected him directly.

It's like when conservatives suddenly have a change of opinion with respect to gay rights when their child comes out. I'm not going to throw you some party celebrating your ability to change your mind when all you've done is show that you only care about shit when it affects you directly.
They come from BSD (and, nitpick, are not called coreutils). These BSD tools lack features mostly only if you're used to GNU coreutils.

The expanse of GNU coreutils features is questionable too: some are nice, some you can do without easily and rarely to never miss, and some are downright annoying (yes I'm looking at you, ls with colors+quotes)
This is something I come back to frequently in my life. It's like that moment when something your parents told you over and over again as a child suddenly makes sense.

I think the distinction is process vs initiative. You can teach people processes easily, but only experience can generate the initiative that conjures the process in the moments it is useful or necessary. Experience is what integrates the process into the person.
A tad outdated. At a glance I see it’s missing `networkQuality` (introduced in Monterey) and `realpath` (added in Ventura).
I got pretty lucky with this; found a cofounder who came from money and was happy to bankroll us for 6 months until we closed our first round.
HN has extreme recency bias. I've been on here forever and things definitely get reinvented over and over again, and if it wasn't built in the last six months it's not cool.
Harvard behavioral scientist studying dishonesty is accused of fabricating data
Eventually, only the owners are responsible. Every second they don't kick the managers that implement this crap to the curb is a moral failure on their part.

Gates owns 100x more shares than Nadella - about 1% of all shares - and thus has 100x the responsibility.

They are both guilty of greed and disrespecting their customers through their actions, or their willful or negligent ignorance and inaction.

I don't know how they can live with this, they are already rich, why not try to be better even if you earn less money in the short term?

Disrespecting your customers will get you nowhere in the long term.

If you're using a phone, you could email yourself with a journal specific subject then use an API to automatically add those observations to a log. (Might be able to do that with Google Drive or notes too, I'm not sure if they have API hooks).

If you don't want to keep a phone, a small journal is also a possibility.
Your implicit assumption here, a very dangerous one, is that people cannot make their own choices and need coercion backed by government violence to make the right choices of phone to buy.

I acknowledge that shitty phones are shitty phones. That's why I personally have never and will not buy one. Other people's choices to buy shitty phones does not justify bringing in the government no matter how much it reduces waste. I'd love if people made that choice themselves but having the government force it is quite evil.

More complicated than that. You should try reading Isabel Hardman's book "Why we get the politicians we deserve".

Perhaps it used to be a thing in the US? Cheers was set in Boston, right? Then again, Boston is known for having a lot of Irish influence.
Monitoring is at the infrastructure level. CPU/Memory/Disk space/network.

Logging is at the application level. Log just enough that you can replicate a problem, usually it means just the input.

The rest is marketing.
People are downvoting this, but this is really basic stuff with tons of empirical grounding.
To quote Nacho Varga: "I like ripping of thieves. They can't go to the cops. They have no recourse."

I checked out Github for more info as suggested, and it seems the main ingredient, https://github.com/capeprivacy/private-ai is forked from udacity/private-ai. Hmmm. I was expecting to find a clever and useful repo to nicely identify and strips out personal info, that's not what it is.

I do think stripping and adding personal info back only when needed is in principle a good idea for some situations. But I have big doubts at the injection of another party into the mix.
Good luck trying to monitor using debugging tools like logs and metrics. Devs thinking they can do Ops because reasons. What you really need is state monitoring. You know, the old Nagios style that everybody thinks is out of date because, again, reasons. Just start by having e2e tests for everything and add intermediate tests when you discover points of failure and bottlenecks. And don't give me that "Nagios does not scale" bullshit. You don't need to and can't monitor 9 trillion things. You also have Icinga and other options that scale for state monitoring.

In place of argumentation which would be too long, let me give you an analogy. Monitoring is telling you the fire alarm went off. The exact reason is left for a investigation and that's where saving data like logs and metrics helps. But first you need to evacuate the building and call the fire department. If instead of detecting the smoke (e2e) you try to monitor all the data like pressure in gas pipes, all the pipes fittings, how many lighters are in the building and where, etc, you will wake up every night 10 times for nothing and when a fire starts you will burn sound asleep.

Oh, and don't try to scale Prometheus, that's what things like victoriametrics are for.

I'm pretty sure the taste/flavor/aroma that most people associate with olive oil is actually just rancidity. I also suspect that olive oil suppliers let the oil go rancid on purpose so that it attains that "flavor profile". My personal policy on olive oil is miss me with it - too shady.
1.5 years ago? I heartily pooh-pooh the idea that the so-called MSM speaks with a single voice about anything. But in any case, the WHO was already calling for the lab leak theory to be investigated in 2021, and this was certainly being reported by mainstream media outlets without the suggestion that any of the people involved were racists. E.g. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/10/13/covid-lab-leak-t...
Working hard doesn't influence housing supply vs demand in real terms at all. In fact it makes it worse because all those hardworking people will demand higher quality housing in exchange for their sacrifice. So end up with more people being unhappy with their current housing, not less.
The web based outlook is an extremely well-polished and usable piece of software. You can use it in any browser you like.
Food prices are definitely still up 50%+ over 2019, but down from last year. Concerns over the conflict in Ukraine sent things to the moon for a little while. I expect there is still some fertilizer concern out there, but it is mostly the weather driving things right now.
Most Starlink customers are in areas “easy” to serve by high speed internet like the eastern US. It’s really only economical because of poor internet access across most of the US compared to similar density areas in other developed counties.
Anyone interested in competing with Chrome today would do well to look at the webcomic[0] that they released when they rolled out Chrome.

Chrome was targeted at developers from the outset. The comic explains "why Chrome" in a way that makes very little sense to a lay person but shows why Chrome is far better than what developers were developing against up until that point. Google sold Chrome on its technical merits, and technical people could easily sell it to friends and family because everyone already used Google and liked it. They had a compelling story for what was wrong with existing browsers and they had strong name recognition.

I think the problem with efforts to compete with Chrome so far is that they miss both these things. I'm a privacy fan myself, but it's pretty clear that privacy alone isn't enough of a selling point the way "a browser that works like an operating system" was. There has to be something else to set the browser apart. And then once you have that distinguishing feature to appeal to the technical crowd, you need some way to make it easy to recommend the friends and family. That's especially difficult in today's browser environment.

Windows + 3rd party game launchers + shitty buggy games on release is triple the nightmare, better reserve 2h of your time for surprises if it's first time in a while you turn on your PC to play something on Windows. Probably reason #1 I love PS5, it has it's flaws but never takes longer than 5 minutes to go from power off to playing the game.

Straw man argument at best. This is anecdotal, but ridicule for reevaluating a position is not at all common in my experience.

When people tie their identities to a specific idea, it becomes hard to change that idea as they or the idea evolve.

Personally, I always try to dissociate the idea from the person; I really like the motto of “always happy to adopt a better idea”. Helps reduce the ego burden of switching.
Now show me the records from 300,000 years ago that you based your above post on.
In the Germanic countries I've been to, the thing to do seems to be to join a club of some sort. Like a rowing club or something like that.

You can use ImageMagick's `convert`.

The result will be around 2MB in size (in both directions).
>they can track your data to serve you very profitable ads everywhere

Where? I don't see ads absolutely anywhere.

>they can hamstring ad blockers with things like Manifest V3

I've been hearing about this for years and it still hasn't happened. When the change occurs, if I begin seeing ads, I will abandon Chrome. But until then I will keep using it.
Several commenters like yourself have commented on consolidation without giving a clear example. Which consolidations have happened that caused the inflation?
Why this doesn't work while drinking tea?
Mozilla has been doing this stupid thing where every once in a long while (maybe after an update?) Firefox opens a tab with an ad for their VPN or something similarly stupid. I hope they’re making money hand over fist with it because the reputational effect of built in ads for other Mozilla programs is bad.

You have to go into about:config and set browser.vpn_promo.enabled to false to disable them. No way to turn them off for regular users.
This is an interesting counterpoint, but I'm not sure it's a counterexample: those governments kept existing, in the sense that the, say, Cuban government existed both before and after; they just had radical changes of direction and leadership. The same can and does happen to companies, and I think many casual observers would say that the business has survived.
> He's also doing this thing we need a name for, something like "fallacious pithiness".

We have a word for this, it's "tweeting".

Thanks for the deep link, the other one sent me on an infinite redirect loop.

It is still puzzling to me, since they have "Trade, Travel, Accom. and Food" with the highest profit contribution in figure 2. However if you look at the quarterlies of Nestel, P&G and others their profits are increasing by low single-digit % if at all.

Is Long Covid Linked to Mental Illness?
To make this fun: What's a strong belief that you used to have, that you don't have anymore? Especially ones that go counter to mainstream narrative.

Two for me (might start some fights, but it's all in good fun):

- I generally believed that Python was great for building big systems, but having worked on some very large Python codebases, I've become a real zealot for a good type system, especially when refactoring and maintenance becomes a major issue.

- Having worked with and maintained a couple of event sourced systems, I've become much less of a purist, given how hard they are to maintain and build on. So I went from "event sourcing is awesome" to "YAGNI".
Correct - Edge is Chromium with a bunch of different features surrounding it. Same core engine. Generally, they release a few days after a Chrome stable release comes out with the same code.
Federal data shows SF permitting paltry number of new homes
It is already happening, with the pending commercial real estate crash I expect a lot of the big ones will be looking down the barrel soon. Most cities are propped up by short term gains. Foreign investment, capital firms, large business offices, etc.... It won't take much to tip them over. We're sitting on a ticking time bomb trying to add seconds to the clock instead of disarm it.

Can anyone help me understand musl libc and DNS issues? Note that I’m most interested in this “DNS over TCP” issue, since the other case I’ve heard of is for custom DNS setup—not for resolving host names in a default configuration.

My reading indicates that DNS resolution simply might not work in certain cases. This seems like a huge problem, yet Alpine Linux is widely deployed and I think Zig uses musl libc as well. In fact , every fully static binary I’ve seen (except for Go?) relies on musl.

For what it’s worth, I’ve seen DNS errors on Alpine (specifically I was getting EAGAIN), but I assumed this was unrelated to musl (and am still unsure). In general, I feel like I see a lot more transient networking errors on Alpine, and I wonder if this is related.

Edit: I also didn’t think DNS would be in libc, so I’ve got a lot to learn…

This is the thing. I don't want to deal with prompt engineering. I want ChatGPT to be fine-tuned to me. My learning style, my unique experiences and what ultimately makes me a human.

Apple sells the ability to be part of an 'in-group'. People don't buy their phones for their computing abilities, they do it to have access to other Apple users.

This reads like the whining of a 14-year-old standing in a dark corner during the school dance. Translation:

"Look at me! I'm different! I'm so very counter-culture. People like Apple products, so I'm going to pretend it's a problem with the people and not other products. That way I can cosplay like I'm better/smarter/cooler than all those 'lemmings.' Now I'm going to smoke cigarettes, wear jeans, pop a leather jacket because nobody's been doing that since the 1940's. I'm special!"
