I fail to see how these issues really matters. My issues with LLMs is that there is no score to tell the quality of an answer. The second thing is that it adds cognitive load and noise. In automations that might be fine but tools like Githu

I think the author mixed up prototyping with proof of concept. A POC should be tossed out. I think most companies expect at least the senior devs to be able to write a feature on first try.

I mostly use 1.1.1.2 or 1.1.1.3 depending on the device. That is CF with different restrictions. On Windows the big problem with DNS is that it can be changed randomly. Among all the garbage on Windows this is peak garbage. Any con can chan

I only use Chrome for web dev things. Been living for decades and I still don't understand how people can be so fking stupid.

Edge is just where something is hosted. It has nothing to do with data consistency. User signup is a unique problem that any large site has. Some sites like HN also actually needs usernames which makes things more complicated. Owasp always

Very good point. A gotcha along the same path. Deserialization of things not needed as what you get with generated clients. An aspect of interfaces in Go I really like. Remotely type what I use. Skip the rest. Not fun to have incidents caus

Agree. You get a discount if something breaks. But SLA really only works for larger services where the cost of fixing something is small when compared to the discounts.

I think the article is somewhat incorrect. I really dislike all these custom chatbots. But it is also fairly easy to measure how good they work. And for the sites I work with at least the chatbots perform better than other options and they

Don't use *. It is a common source for all kinds of problems. Many query langs does not support it at all for that reason.

If SO was worried about that drop I think they would have bought back some of that traffic. More likely something has changed how they count the visits or they blocked some bad traffic. Traffic data is often sampled as well. The fall in the

ChatGPT. Both that people use it instead but also that some people try to game SO with answers from it. So the moderation of the site has probably become harder. SEO is another factor. At least I don't get as many results on SO as I us

I have seen many failed or very expensive projects. An unordered list of issues. 1. Sunk cost. Quit before it hurts. 2. Non-technical leaders. Talk to experts when it comes to tech. I don't care if you watched a Youtube-vid. 3. Tech pe

Rick is right I believe. But why not just use overloading instead? That is what is done in many OO-langs to avoid making breaking changes.

The typeface is not monospaced. It is a garbage sans serif clone with some stupid sans-letters like lower case i and l that looks just ridiculous. Sweden used to use Helvetica (or some typeface very close to that). They should revert to tha

Avro does not even come with deserialize to object in the libs. A terrible choice for interoperability.

I always try to avoid these special formats. Most people have not used them and even if there are claims that the tools work on different platforms there are often some quirks. Another approach is to add compression and tweak it for perform

Governments need good design and a versatile typeface without any shenanigans.

Not what I said. Do you think they got the font for free? They used tax payers money to hire probably a brand corp that created this font as a part of the brand.

What you are not understanding is how corps are selling fonts. The Font is garbage.

I forgot that credit cards comes with insurance in some places. Most apparent is that you can't even rent a car in some parts of US without a credit card. In EU that type of insurance may be included in the legally obligated housing in

We use MS for some stuff and did use Okta for others. But... Okta fkd up and can never be used in any enterprise today. We migrated from it. Everybody should. Now we use MS and Google. Okta is probably the most over-priced service in histor

If TXT-records are proof enough when ownership is to be provided for TLS certs. Then, why not just put the TLS-data into the "trusted" TXT-records and skip the multi-billion-dollar-BS-CA-biz all together?

In current times *zip mostly cripples things like the web and Docker. To find out it is the best at something in 2023 is not very likely. Nice find btw.

I worked a lot with both SSR and SSG. I think SSG is the correct choice for most sites. There may be reasons to use SSR like if it is the only alternative to problematic client side rendering or in some cases security.

"I can dispute the charge and get resolution without any money leaving my bank account." Really? In what cases can an average credit card user challenge a payment that has not already occurred? If there is a fraud usually it is qu

Why Americans love credit cards so much is a mystery. In Europe debit cards have been the way to go for a long time. Most countries in Europe also have direct payments through mobile apps.

I spent some money on GP ads and it was kind of funny that no matter how the views and clicks were distributed in the end the cost for each install was about 1$. It is "fake" how it works but it is in the agreement. Also Google ad
