In fact auto-complete in VS code with copilot works surprisingly well. Let’s say there are patterns in how classes in a framework are constructed, and I already added changes to the schema, it will often emit the correct implementation code

As good as it is? I find it pretty terrible, at least for me it singlehandedly makes me not want to use Android.

A few years ago I looked up what's available to make a kid interested in programming when I found this. I ended up spending quite a few days doing my own little project... that I'm almost not ashamed to link here ;-). http:/

Not that I don't agree that Switzerland loosing its finance industry would be a big blow for the country, but let's get some perspective: Banking is less than half the size of Switzerland's manufacturing industry in terms of income - in ter

Ok sorry, I was wrong about Sweden - I thought the nation defaulted in the 90ies, but it was in fact 'only' a big chunk of their financial industry[1]. It seems that they came very close though, and the way they resolved it doesn't appear t

Why is insolvency not an option for a country? It was in Sweden, which is doing fine now, and in Argentina more recently. Oh look, there's a whole lot more of them[1]. It only isn't an option for a member state of the EU. I sure don't see h

Well yes, grown-over-time permission systems are also at fault when it comes to the lack of security in third party extensions/apps. IMO unix is still the standard in terms of simplicity and power of permissions - if the system architect se

I'd really like to see a usability study between Vim experts (10y+ usage) and Sublime Text 2 (1y+ usage) experts on a keyboard+good touchpad combo. We could even do it in theory by counting number of actions and assume the APM in vim to be

I'm very interested in this, in fact I'm planning on rolling an iOS based couchDB solution for a company sometime this summer. Could you comment on some key differences between pouchDB and touchDB? Did you also try to simply run ARM compile

It feels strange to me that so far only one commenter here (ok, he's at the top now) has identified where the main mistake seems to be: A SYNCHED COPY IS NOT A BACKUP . This includes: - git - svn - Dropbox - RAID (of any kind) If you don't

Honestly, as a European, that sums up pretty much the preconceptions we have about Americans: throat jumpy. If it accurately reflects American culture is another story, but I gotta say American media is not really helping the case - as isn'

Did you also update your XP to the latest service packs and patches? My updated XP in a VM currently runs at 780MB after one morning of very light usage. It has only one application open at 100MB. Also, yes, virtualization wasn't always

If it keeps its promises this will be huge. To be honest it's almost too good to be true (and to have such an open license). Looking forward very much to using this in future projects.

While I share your sentiment I'm honestly kind of impressed that you run 5-6 linux VMs on a Pentium 4/AMD64 generation system. Really? Those things didn't virtualization support on the CPU yet, did they? Also, Ram probably maxes out at arou

I had the same issue, they fixed it without 2 days without discussion though. A motherboard replacement was required there, billed out for about $800 (of course for me it was free). After all I'm still glad having a macbook. Friend of mine

By inactive I meant that it's not swallowing anything currently, but I guess if it has attracted a gas cloud this is simply not true. Must be quite a sight. Imagine there's a civilization on one of the central stars (if that's even possible

I've never seen that image of our galaxy's central region, it's fascinating! Is "Sgr A" the black hole, Sagittarius A*? If yes, why would it be bright? I thought it's inactive.

here's one more usecase which is probably very common: When you use python as glue to call other programs which can run asynchronously. As an example I've used python once to implement a parallelized genetic algorithm where the evaluation f

Interesting. Did they release informations on how they solved that? Also, don't they have some built in redundancy for the thrusters?

What I gather from the article it's not the stored energy that's of some concern, but the 250 bar nominal pressure in the tanks - a rupture might lead to metal splinters flying around. However, they claim that the car's underfloor is enough

Yes, the comment quality on HN seems to be quite bad when it comes to Heroku threads. Why do so many CS professionals appear to be attaching themselves emotionally to software tools? That's pretty much what I have to conclude if you can't a

I'd say E-Mail signatures. Officials should get a big fat warning sign for E-Mails that contain either no signature or a signature issued by an untrusted party. The private keys to sign mails would also have to be encrypted in a way that in
