Maybe so for you, but you might want to think about why your work involved so much boilerplate and routine content in the first place. If so much of it is easily completed by an LLM already, was your employer really paying you some large share of your 5-6 digits of compensation for every year? Do you think most of your value to the company has just been in typing boilerplate and mindlessly generating tests until now?

Personally, I'd feel pretty insecure in my career and underdeveloped in my trade if I could answer yes to that.

If it does apply to you (or others reading this), hopefully you can exploit this brief window of gained personal productivity to develop more valuable skills and get your tasked to more valuable roles asap. Software engineering as a profession isn't going anywhere, but the people most helped by today's fairly primitive LLM coding assistants are the ones that are actually vulnerable to be squeezed out of the trade because it means they're the not actually contributing very much specific expertise.

The productivity change you've experienced should be taken as a bright red warning flag that you've unwittingly settled into a role as an technician getting paid highly because of ephemeral demand bubble rather than the valuable engineer you might imagine yourself to be.
Most of the IP to coarse location databases cost money and/or require backend work to setup. Totally reasonable to skip that money/effort for a fun project like this!

You're correct, but nothing you said changes my mind in thinking that the person you replied to is 100% correct and that QI ought to be different.
Well, in that case, that’s great news for Elon Musk. If Kamala wins the next election, according to you, it should be illegal to retaliate against him.

The surgeon general of Louisiana was formerly a U.S. House Representative. Luke Letlow was his campaign chairman and his chief of staff, almost certainly one of the Surgeon General's closest and most trusted colleagues. Luke Letlow died of COVID when he was 41 years old leaving behind a widow and two children.

From Luke Letlow's wikipedia page:

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, Letlow wore a mask only sporadically during his campaign, and was photographed speaking indoors to constituents when masks were not being worn by him or those gathered.[14] In October, he had encouraged Louisiana officials to relax pandemic restrictions, warning, "We're now at a place if we do not open our economy, we're in real danger."
This is the thing people don't understand. Certain military and government aircraft can pull this kind of crap even when it doesn't seem necessary. (At least not to me as an outsider).

Now it's easy to say, "Well, Bilbo0s, who are you to say it wasn't necessary?"

That's true, but it's an argument that's closed onto itself. We can't probe any further 'cuz "National Security". So this unimaginably dangerous practice of allowing military and government pilots to do this sort of thing "if necessary" continues.

We need to, at minimum, have a discussion about why the practice is necessary?

Well those are certainly very different switches to hit.

It's the other way around: PC gamers have more computer knowledge than the average user and actually upgrade their hardware. Windows 11 has been out for 3.5 years now.

Among all internet users, 60% are still on Windows 10. Both worldwide [1] and in NA [2]. And that figure includes all the corporate machines that get replaced on deprecation schedules. Among private computers the share of Windows 10 might be even higher

Has there been any progress or effort on solving the underlying problem?

I'm not entirely sure why AI knowledge must be close to a year old, and clearly this is a problem developers are aware of.

Is there are a technical reason they can't be, for instance, a month behind rather than close to a year?
The political pressure being applied was already extraordinary relative to the charges, had the current administration not been making more serious threats toward the exiting president's family then the pardon wouldn't have been necessary.

Also, if Americans voted for Trump to do a fascism, because Trump said he would do a fascism, and then Trump did a fascism... it's still legitimate to oppose fascism. "This is what (about half of the people who bothered to vote) voted for" doesn't mean everyone else just has to go home and sit on their hands.
For some things (e.g. abortion), this is a plausible explanation; but that doesn't explain the sheer vindictiveness of confiscating the travel documents of people who are at risk of bodily harm if they can't leave the region (to give one example).

Who says you can’t make a library that does both? Rust makes it pretty easy to conditionally compile code based on architecture.

It could even be possible to make some sort of “ABA primitive” and use that for these sort of data structures. This could well exist: I’ve not looked. These sorts of things really aren’t that common in my experience.

On LR/SC: to any atomics experts listening, isn’t it technically “obstruction-free” (as per the Wikipedia definitions at least) rather than lock-free? (though in practice this makes basically no difference and still counts as lock-free in the C++ (and Rust) sense) Just something that stuck out last time I got sucked into this rabbit hole.
I doubt I'll be able to use windows 11, even just for gaming. I think when I won't be able to game on 10 I'll just install Linux, or steamos?, and I'll just play whatever I can. And I just won't play any games that require windows for their DRM reasons.
Ask HN: Aren't we flagging too many submissions?
I noticed this article I submitted a couple minutes ago, about an internal reorganization at Blue Origin [0], was flagged a couple minutes after posting.

Do we collectively think we are going to degenerate into flame wars so easily even this relatively harmless piece about one of SpaceX's competitors is deemed too risky?

I'm all in favor of flagging and hiding articles that devolve into shouting matches and ad-hominem attacks, but proactively doing so before the first comment appears seems to be a bit excessive.

The same way as they have dealt with not having them since Windows 3.x.
Yes, doing it full-time. Cost to acquire new customers has been $0, we're growing organically and through content marketing.

I believe we could hit $10k just repeating what we're doing now. But we're currently looking at where to best spend our earnings in order to scale faster.

I get the AI wrapper objection, but Chatgpt or other LLMs can't do what Buildpad does. For example, when verifying demand for your solution (this is one of the phases users go through) Buildpad will generate and host a "research page" for you that will help with taking in feedback from your target audience and make the whole validation process a lot easier.

I appreciate your perspective and I'd be lying if I said that what we're doing isn't a risk. But I personally get so much enjoyment out of building my own product and having users that appreciate it, that all the hard work makes it worth it. And the idea that we can make it into something huge is very motivating too. For me, it's a risk well worth taking.
They got it long ago, don't kid yourself.
They were always fine with it until we found out on what that money was spent on. It turns out, that the most of it was a waste at best and grift at worse.

As for 'juniors', it's not like we've seen this sort of thing before such as those here happy to propel the opinions of so-called 'climate expert / activist' (Greta Thunberg) who didn't finish school and was used by the media as the face of 'saving the planet' and throwing unfounded claims of disaster by 2023, despite a significant lack of understanding of climate change and what she was talking about.

But then again, I have not heard back from Netflix's elite team for a postmortem of that live-streaming disaster which there were no juniors to blame this time despite being inexperienced in delivering live-streaming on their platform reliably.

I've noticed ChatGPT/GH Copilot is also particularly bad at PowerShell (I do sysadminy things), especially anything to do with the MS Graph API.

It just makes up Cmdlets a lot of the time. If you prod it enough though it will eventually get it right, which strikes me as odd, it's like the training data was just full of really bad code.

By contrast, anything I've asked it to do in Python has been more or less spot on.

I fear that in the future the choice of tech stack is going to be less on the merits of the stack itself and more centered around "Which language and framework does ChatGPT (or other AI) produce the best output for"

I don't see the word "reach" or any relevant mention of "Linus" in either the "shaming" post or in the resignation post.

Even if there was, I'm not sure I trust the word of such a drama-seeker directly, so it's reasonable to a evidence of on-mailing-list appeals adding CC (as Danilo did), and if that fails mention of contacting Linus off-list in that specific subthread.

That's not the same thing. Prosecuting someone for a crime they committed should always be done but firing someone for doing their jobs (FBI investigating j6) should not be allowed. Unless of course you broke the law at your job.

Cue the dialog configuration service, which will provide dynamic dialog configuration JSON files.

The dialog configuration service will then need to communicate with the colour token service, which will be the single source of truth for the primary and secondary colour according to the current theme, so the dialog configuration service should only be concerned with the token representing the meaning it needs to communicate.

And of course, the colour token service will need to adapt to the device's detected ambient brightness level, so the colour token service should probably apply a luminosity transform as suggested by the ambient lightness service... but that math can get rather complex so I think I'll stand up a new colour transformer instead which can handle that along with hue shifting, just in case our brand colours all change by the same relative hue-degrees on a normalized sRGB colour wheel all at the same time.

Good talk team, we got a road map!

Right now I'm fixing some accessibility issues involving some code where people on my team (including myself) have been making changes to the code without a complete understanding of how things are supposed to work.

I don't want to keep pushing a bubble around under the rug so I've done some small refactorings (extract a chunk of <svg> into <SvgLogo>) and I'm now writing a huge comment that explains the status quo. I'm sure there are going to be some more refactorings in the same code and I expect to change the comment accordingly.

Frequently comments are apologies and are in themselves a bad smell.
agree. With the fall update to Claude 3.5 Sonnet it’s held its own. Add in MCP and it’s pretty good. Looking forward to seeing what they’ve achieved.

> Improper neutralization of quoting syntax in PostgreSQL libpq functions PQescapeLiteral(), PQescapeIdentifier(), PQescapeString(), and PQescapeStringConn() allows a database input provider to achieve SQL injection in certain usage patterns. Specifically, SQL injection requires the application to use the function result to construct input to psql, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

Wait, what kind of system design uses programmatic input to psql, the command-line tool? Are they like shelling out to psql, instead of using a SQL client library?

> Similarly, improper neutralization of quoting syntax in PostgreSQL command line utility programs allows a source of command line arguments to achieve SQL injection when client_encoding is BIG5 and server_encoding is one of EUC_TW or MULE_INTERNA

BIG5 is Chinese encoding, so I'm assuming the actual attack was the other route.

> Which brings up a more interesting argument IMO: platform fragmentation. Rust has approximately 1.5 advantages over C/C++. To displace them in a reasonable time, it probably needed 4 or 5. Its most significant contribution for the foreseeable future is platform fragmentation.

I'm honestly not sure what any of this means. How are you counting "advantages", and how did you come up with the requisite number being 4 or 5? It's not clear to me why all advantages would be equal in magnitude. Maybe this is what you intended to convey by not using whole numbers, although it seems like trying to estimate how advantages compare like this in a way that was precise enough to be informative would be difficult, to say the least.

To be clear, I don't disagree with you that C/C++ are not in any immediate risk of being displaced (and I'd go further and argue that C and C++ are distinct enough in how they're used that displacing one wouldn't necessarily imply displacing the other as well). I just don't think I've ever seen things quantified in this way before, and it's confusing enough to me that I don't want to discount the possibility that I'm misunderstanding something.
No, they are linked to beliefs (like anything else), but the canonical forms do differ a lot. Most importantly:

- bayesian methods give you posterior distributions rather than point estimates and SEs

- bayesian methods natively offer prior and posterior predictive checks

- with bayesian methods, it's evidently easier to combine knowledge from multiple sources, which null-hypothesis testing struggles with (best way is probably still meta-analyses)

I've been using Windows 11 without much complaint since its release, but off the top of my head, I can't name a single "feature" that would motivate me to upgrade if I were on Windows 10, besides "continued support."

I'm running Win11 but I had to check, because I forgot. I remember having to turn off a bunch of bullshit when I first installed Win on this machine but there aren't ads or anything. The most annoying thing it does is power cycle when I'm not expecting it, in order to update. Pretty sure there's a setting for that I haven't touched.
>It's strange that they are ending Windows 10 support so soon after they stopped selling it.

Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 10 - all of these had a published 10 year support lifecycle when they came out.

Windows 10's end of support is completely expected and as planned.

With Windows 11, they've moved it to a new lifecycle model, so it's less clear how long it will be supported for.

Very much agreed that's the long-term goal, but I think we'll live in a world where most apps don't support oauth for a while longer (though I'd love for all of them to -- we're actually announcing something next week that makes this easy for any app to do)

But we're also envisioning an interim period where users are delegating to unsanctioned external agents (e.g. OpenAI Operator, Anthropic Computer Use API, etc.) prior to apps catching up and offering proper oauth
Every airplane has that. A fully computerized cockpit will have that. Its a feature.

It has to be manually set because there is no way to know what the reference pressure should be for altitude while you are in the air (the reference isn't necessarily the true sea level pressure since that changes constantly, it is what the SLP was at the time the reference was set). Using a non-pressure altimeter you can normally figure out what true SLP is, but the idea is that you want all planes using the same altimeter readings, even if it is not strictly correct.

All aircraft in a given area are told the reference by the controller when they enter the control area.
Well, that’s also great news for Elon Musk and Trump; they are arguing their political retaliation is also merely the investigation of crime; and frankly, just look at Hunter’s laptop in any tabloid, and it’s patently clear there is at least some truth to this (it’s not black-and-white). At some point the line is completely gray and politically up to opinion.

Not sure that'd be a rights violation. The cop would be able to say they had reasonable suspicion that a crime was being committed justifying the detention. Excessive force is a possibility depending on the details, such as the extent of the injuries that resulted from being forced to the ground or if the cop ordered the runner to stop before tackling them.
