It's not the entire last half. He does mention agents, but inaccurately says that Devin is the only agentic software engineering tool.

But he does not override his initial premise of doubting that things will change significantly from the current uses in the future.

It's not really unknown, there are several popular tools, and we can expect them to be more reliable and useful as better models continue to be rolled out.

Also if you are writing about the future then you should look beyond next year.

Everyone should anticipate that there is a strong possibility that we continue on a similar trajectory of improvement.

Therefore it is NOT reasonable to expect that things won't change dramatically in software engineering, because the trajectory is very rapid progress.

Within the next 3, 5, maybe 10 years, many existing jobs including software engineering may be replaced by AI. That's the direction we are headed and any article should take the possibility seriously by now.
Shouldn't the law prohibiting the voice calls on flight be changed first?
Can you imagine being stuck for hours with loud and obnoxious human being who thinks that they are in their right to explain all of their work and family problems to the entire airplane? I hope airlines will forbid such behavior but it might be time to buy noise suppressing headphones for the gun silencers are not allowed on board.
If the resulting AI models are protected by copyright that invalidates the claim that AI models being trained on copyrighted materials is fair-use analogous to human beings becoming educated by exposure to copyrighted materials.

Educated human beings are not protected by copyright, hence neither should trained AI models. Conversely, if a copyrightable work is produced based on work which itself is copyrighted, the resulting work needs the consent of the original authors of the prior work.

AI models can't have their ©ake and eat it.
I mean, it really isn’t a security mechanism of any kind. Any security properties at all are completely accidental.

One need only disable stateful firewalling and use that to see how completely dire the situation would be. As all outbound connections open up your host to the internet.
> doing it on scale

Like cloud-scale, no-code scale, or NoSQL scale? You are confused, which shows that, maybe, you should not be using such tools with the experience that you don't have.
They are probably all avoiding getting dragged into a libel or defamation case and think you won't pay them.
> Nobody elected the people making these decisions! These are awfully big decisions for unelected appointees to be making.

Agency costs [0] are everywhere, so it's a question of the lesser of two (or more) evils: For most issues, if the legislature has even arguably delegated authority to unelected appointees (even, or even especially, to "politicals"), then I'd usually rather have those appointees making the decisions, subject to being overruled if they go too far. [1]

Otherwise, the problems just fester: Too many elected officials are terrified of offending oligarchical special interests with big checkbooks (and/or big megaphones), who are increasingly willing to punish deviance by stirring up extremist zealots in the parties' primary elections and low-information voters [2] in the general election.

[1] Chevron deference was quite workable. The Supreme Court's recent Loper Bright decision strikes me as another brazen, Marbury-style bootstrap by life-tenured judges who ought to think of themselves as humble hired help, but who imagine they should have authority without accountability. The "least-dangerous branch"? Not anymore. A "co-equal branch"? Talk about noses pressed up against the glass; there's a reason the Constitution talks about the federal judiciary in Article III, not Article I (Congress) or Article II (the executive branch).

[2] Low-information voters shouldn't be mocked: Most of us have other things to do in life; we just want issues dealt with competently and "equitably" — I'd prefer a Rawlsian "veil of ignorance" approach [3] for just about everything — with due attention to externalities and resilience. Example: In Texas judicial elections, I'm a low-information voter even though I'm a lawyer: Unless I know about the candidates myself, I generally follow the Houston Chronicle editorial board's recommendations, because I have some confidence in the board's process — and I don't want to spend time "doing my own research."

I have been using LLMs (chapt-gpt, perplexity, claude) for development for over a year. It is helpful for summary explanations of concepts and boilerplate for frameworks and library APIs. But it makes errors within those consistently.

Its a great tool and saves a great deal of time, but I have yet to go beyond generating snippets I have to vet, typically finding a made up library API call or misunderstanding of my natural language prompt.

I find it hard to pare down these LLM evangelizing articles into take aways that improve my day to day.
Sure, same with TV and News Media. It’s outliers of interest all the way down.
You think something which gets 70% of stuff right on a very good day when the planets are all aligned can write assembly that works? I have news for you.
There was no flip flop. It wasn’t Democrats not trusting the scientists, the FDA or the pharmaceutical companies. Trump was putting pressure on the FDA to even skip what they thought was prudent.
Your best course of action is to wait until the 1.3 is awarded or not. Your CEO ex-partner understands this and wants your equity before this happens. Why rush? It's in your interest to slow it down.

1% at current valuation will drop as new inventors buy in. Get protection that this amount never drops and try for 10% but settle at 4% non diluting shares.

If the company dissolves you get half of the existing value anyways and that amount is trending up.

The only reason to take the 30k is if you believe the company will drop in value and fall apart quickly. If that's the case you wouldn't be looking for 1% as that would be worthless.

You have to consider taxes. If you sell in less than a year any profits over your investment are taxed at normal tax rates but over a year you pay 15% in the US. Frances has complex rules where holding it for 2 years to 6 years will drop the percent owed.
Someone I know who was in a similar position went through a similar effort to you only to find out once they were represented that cloudflare had handed over they and their readers data in advance of the deadline.
Would be great to chat, how can I contact you?
Yes nothing wrong with cool software or showing people how to use it for useful things.

Sorry I'm just kind of sick of the whole 'kool aid', 'rage against AI' thing a lot of people seem to have going on and the way is presented in the post. I have family members with vision impairment helped by this particular app so its a bit personal.

Nothing against opening stuff up and understanding how it works etc. I'd just rather see people build/train useful new models and stuff with the open datasets / models already available.

I guess AI kind of does pay my bills in a round about way.
and therefore everyone has the necessary rights to read works, the necessary rights to critique of the works including for commercial purposes, and the necessary rights to derivative works including for commercial purposes
Are you looking specifically for developers that are seasoned in Rust? I like the potential for impact in this role, and I think I would meet the requirements for the Senior position (Master's degree + almost 6 years in tech now across software engineering, ML engineering and research positions), but my focus is Python and (to a lesser extent) C++. Wouldn't mind learning a new language for a job of course, but I would understand if you want developers who already did projects in the language for a while.
I wouldn't say so. Once you learn a bit more about programming languages, you realize the problem is mostly about communication, not the tools itself. No matter how good the language is, if the writer and the reader is not fluent in it, you'd have a hard time communicating ideas. My very subjective benchmark is that you ought to be capable to express the overview of your implementation in plain English before even going to code (except if you're prototyping). I've met people that are only gluing snippets together and have never given a thought about the overall design.
Show HN: I Finally Shipped My First Real Product – Timesible
Hi, I'm a developer, and after years of experimenting with various ideas, I finally shipped and reached a satisfaction point with my product. It’s called Timesible — a time tracking and project management tool designed to help businesses and teams optimize their productivity.

Over the years, I’ve built plenty of projects, but most of them never reached the finish line or died out pretty early. This time, however, I wanted to build something truly useful. I decided to create a product that offers a simple, all-in-one solution to track time, manage tasks, and keep everything on budget.

The idea came from my own frustration with existing tools that felt either too complex or disconnected. I wanted a product that felt intuitive and streamlined, so I focused on making Timesible as easy to use as possible, with powerful features like time tracking, team management, project cost analysis, and invoicing — all in one platform.

My wife and I use Timesible every day for our own projects, and it’s been amazing to see how much it helped us stay organized and productive. I’m humbled that it’s already getting some attention and being used by others who are finding it just as valuable.

If you're a team or business looking to improve your time management and project workflow, I’d love for you to give Timesible a try. It’s been a labor of love, and I’m excited to keep improving it.
Interesting historical context but I also think fashion is something where subtle changes can completely differentiate the thing, and for that, these are not the bell bottom jeans I think most people think of when that term gets mentioned. They are loose around the upper parts all the way down. Much more similar to the jeans the JNCO brand popularized in the 90s. The 60s/70s bell bottom jeans were hip hugging but also flared at the bottom. They were different enough to not be the same from a fashion perspective.
To be fair - the gap between present capabilities and future capabilities is the issue.

Having a system that is accurate a random number of times, is very different than a system that is predictable. There’s just too many use cases where GenAI looks like a great fit, but then you have to have the mental overhead of figuring out if this is the time you lose the lottery.

It’s just… the kind of mental overhead I wanted a machine to take away from me, not add to my life.
> It seems a wealthy individual is going to get their way and cause me harm and stifle free speech

This may sound like a slight from an American, but I truly don't mean it that way. This is an honest expression/question.

My (probably poor) understanding is that there is not general free speech in the UK, that the free speech guarantees only apply to members of parliament (and/or maybe other government reps?), and not to individual citizens. At least, constitutionally. Am I wrong about that? Are there legal protections for "free speech" for average citizens in the UK?
That things do not require “AI”. An expert system will do just fine.
I saw this video but the acquisition happened 6 years ago but not much progress after that.
Odd, I wonder why I got down voted for it, it was a genuine question
I do this all the time. Actually, I tell it that I am a senior engineer.

A lot of people tinkering with AI think it's more complex than it is. If you ask it ELI5 it will do that.

Often I will say "I already know all that, I'm an experienced engineer and need you to think outside the box and troubleshoot with me. "

It works great.
If cheap is what you are looking for, then yes, a wireguard running on your home server is the way to go. Instead of exposing your home-server directly to Internet, I would put it behind a cloudflare zero trust network access product (costs free).
Maybe for the audience here, it is useful to consider that peer review is a bit like scrum. It's a good idea, but it does not mean that everyone who say they do scrum does it properly. And when, in some situation, it does not work, it does not mean that scrum is useless or incorrect.

And, like "scrum", "academia" is just the sum of the actors, including the paper authors. It's even more obvious that peer review is done by other paper authors: you cannot really be a paper author and blame "academia" for not doing a good peer review, because you are one of the person in charge of the peer review yourself.

As for "sharing code is part of the method", it is where I strongly disagree. Reproducibility and complete description allowing reproducibility is part of the method, but keeping enough details blinded (a balance that can be subjective) is also part of the method. So, someone can argue that sharing code is in contradiction with some part of the method. I think one of the misunderstanding is that people cannot understand that "sharing methods" does not require "sharing code".

Again, the "replication crisis" can be amplified by sharing code: people don't replicate the experiment, they just re-run it and then pretend it was replicated. Replicating the experiment means re-proving the results in an independent way, sometimes even with an orthogonal setup (that's why CMS and ATLAS at CERN are using on purpose different technologies and that they are not allowed to share their code). Using the same code is strongly biased.
The glass recycling in my area is hauling my glass to a container and it gets turned into fiberglass.
Echos with my experience. LLMs work great if you micromanage them aggressively, but the moment I put too much trust, it backfires terribly.
Maybe that's their secret goal. They've formed a government with representatives from other groups and explicitly draw politics and rhetoric from historic socialist anticolonial movements, including the socialist South Yemen. al-Bukhaiti is the most outspoken of their leaders in this regard.

Old Saleh loyalists have during the last year warmed up to the Ansar Allah-led regime as well.

Blink-based browsers have a built-in link preview in a popup which you can turn on.
Elon Musk streamed Path of Exile 2 from an airplane using Starlink a few days ago. It was surprisingly decent.
I was clearly referring to the future

You said "It's occurring" which is the present.

Sadly for you AI griefer bots are a thing, so that side of your reason to exist is also under threat, but you can deny the existence of those too if it will make you feel better.

What is this supposed to mean? You think pointing out that was you said is happening right now isn't actually happening is 'griefing' you? You aren't being persecuted by someone replying to you. You can always avoid saying things that aren't true or give evidence that they are.

If you show me some sort of realtime hallucination that takes rough renders and outputs temporally coherent images in 16ms or less I'll say that you are right that this is happening.
Yep.

I still have some of the Sun manuals with that sentence.

It is kind of ironic how many decades we have been doing distributed systems, and now everyone talks about microservices as if rediscovered powder.
did you guys decide to publish code for Woldcard? i might take a whack at building something cool on top of this if y’all are interested in permitting that
How does that indicate that they didn't address the accuracy of their technology, as the GGP claims?

> The existing alternatives do have access to the bloodstream.

So? Who says otherwise? People don't want invasive tests that have direct contact with their bloodstream.
This is also a technique that was used more than 100 years ago for the line 4 of the Paris métro: https://www.ratp.fr/en/discover/out-and-about/culture/histor...

That's some hypothetical person you made up.
Water bottles floating in the ocean definitely sounds like fishing industry waste. Or whoever is boating and just chucking bottles off the side. I mean think of consumer recycling; only a little fraction of it is probably plastic bottles yet thats all you see in the ocean? Seems hard to believe. There are people who go out and collect seaglass, an industry that exist because boaters throw just that many green brown or blue bottles of beer off the side of the boat to lead to appreciable yields on shore.
Here in Sweden we use it in buns and in ice cream.
This is not cut and cover. Cut and cover is when you "cut" an excavation from the ground surface down and then "cover" it back up with dirt after constructing the structure you want below ground. You have linked to an article on NATM, which is a conventional (read: non-TBM) tunneling method.
… Wait, how many blue collar workers are commuting to Manhattan by car? Where on earth are they parking?
That would be a disaster for hiring and productivity I don't any upside to creating AI generated siloes from a business or developer perspective.
Don't you think you're exaggerating a little with the hyperbolic language?
Sorry for your situation. If your origin has been handed over, are you not already cooked (so to speak)? Who's your host? Surely they have your details as well.

I'm not saying this is right, it's just the reality of the situation: your opsec precluded anonymity in the face of the legal system when you tied your personal information to the blog you were publishing.

Like others have said, its time to get legal representation. The first thing they're going to tell you is to under no circumstances post things about your case in social media outlets. Good luck.
Technically you are right. We do have free speech but not quite like the USA. I have been advised by police here that if a statement is true or the opinions are genuine beliefs of the person making them, then you are not breaking the law. As a civil matter, this has not even been challenged in the US by the court to see if they had a case.
No, Elon, you're not Adrian Dittmann, you're Howard Hughes. Read about him, and ask yourself if that's the way you want your life to play out, because that's what's happening now.
What makes you think he isn’t just messing with people here? He has said before that he’s an alien or that he’ll guard Taylor Swift’s cats with his life. Why should this one be different?
> Your comment suggests some kind of state of maximum efficiency in which the best producer can be charged with production in a monopolistic fashion

Only in a risk-free/non-probabilistic world.

To be clear, 'my freedom ends where your begins' is a way to simplify and summarize an approach to the theory of rights. The point of bringing it up in this context was to point out that there is an equilibrium between opportunity spaces of different actors. In other words, as long as we share the universe, we can't do expect to do literally anything (to other actors or their property in particular) without reprecussions, because any justification for it would be inconsistent.
We - at DiaMonTech - are working on non-invasive glucose monitoring for over a decade now. It's a hard and complex problem and as long as clinical data is missing, I'm very sceptical.

We just reached (in a clinical trial) a comparable accuracy as early-stage invasive devices that got FDA approved with a shoe-box-sized device and we still have some work to do. The pre-print of our publication is here: https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-5289491/v1

I'm excited to see new developments but in this case, I'm not sure this will reach the market anytime soon.
I am afraid of heights. I had to go back halfway through going up the Eiffel tower.

Jesus fuck this video has me on edge. I don't know what moved me to click that link, haha.

Bing Is Impersonating Google
When you search for 'Google' on Bing, you are currently presented with a fake Google-esque search page that displays and auto-focuses a new empty search field.

Microsoft is misleading people into thinking that they are on another search engine by not propagating the original search query into this search field.

Note: I've heard that you may have to be signed out of Microsoft in order to see this behavior.
The TOS of airplane wifi I used last week prohibited voice usage.
But there’s an important lesson here. The structure is the same as a successful serious business. Build something people actually want to buy, build it so you can fulfill it cheaper than cost. Get a little ahead of yourself (but not a lot)
I suppose the issue is a data problem, there being relatively little high quality data explaining how things should be solved in binary. As such making the learning mapping between prompt (english) and good solution (binary) difficult.
If anything, I am downplaying his crimes for the sake of forum civility. He tried to steal the election. This is a documented fact. Members of his own party found him guilty of doing so and provided tangible evidence (phone calls, etc.) of his crimes.

We all watched January 6 play out on TV. We all know about the fake electors. We saw the “honorable” judge Cannon defer his trial again and again and again.

Except now that he won, we all apparently have to pretend that this shit was par for the course and/or never happened. Well, I saw it with my own eyes and it would take a pickaxe for me to forget it.
The point was pedagogical, sometimes the “best” explanation just doesn’t work for a student. Some might get confused about where the state of the caller goes and get hung up.
I think GP's point is that they feel Phoenix is simpler to use than alternatives, not necessarily that it scales better.
Sadly companies will hoard datasets and model research in the name of competitive advantage. Obviously with this specific model Microsoft chose to make it open, but this is not always the case, and it's not uncommon to read papers or technical reports saying they trained on an "internal dataset"
Nobody is disputing that it is possible to set up a secure container network. But this post is about the fact that the default docker behavior is an insecure footgun for users who don’t realize what it’s doing.
Spoken language is often insufficiently precise for describing complex systems.

I get tired of folks drawing boxes and arrows and waving their hands about their designs. I ask for proof that it works they way they say it does and I get nothing.

People seem to like GenAI tools because they can avoid doing the work and get the results. It's like having a genie or a monkey's paw... with similar consequences.

If you don't understand the concurrency problems before you're not going to understand them by staring hard at the code that a chatbot generated.

Why must they publicize openings? They aren't a government agency.
In the future, consider hosting with the following:

* Flokinet (long standing host standing for freespeech, very seriously presented)

* Njalla (created by PirateBay founder, will actually troll any copyright trolls, but seems reliable)

* Cockbox (a silly but also likely reliable option)

Also it seems that you'd have been fine using Cloudflare without giving them any identifying details - when I signed up way long ago, they didn't ask for anything...

Some notes:

* Flokinet offers DDOS protection.

* Njalla offers Domain Registry.

* cockbox is colocated through Flokinet.

* Probably don't use cockbox...
