Mods, I think there is something wrong with the front page algorithm. This post has been stuck there for more than a year now. Among with assorted thoughts on AI or new model point release announcements.

Gerrit manages stacked changes with standard git tooling, except for the tiny change-id hook. Similar stable change identifier is also what enables Jujutsu to do its magic. Standardizing around something like this would be greatly beneficia

This emphasizes the problem even more. Only one out of ten people use the force push approach, most others add commits to the PR. Allowing two different workflows – even within the same project – just shows the lack of strategy for how this

Does this mean that AV1 on Youtube will finally not melt my CPU, while my nvidia GPU is asleep, or is this just an enabler that will require more work to build upon?

Even without AI, a large part is also that everything easy and relevant has already been asked and answered. 10 years ago, there was still demand for low hanging ”how do I reverse a string in programming language X”. On top of that, languag

Fill with what stuff exactly? The only thing I want to inherit from the parent process is its cwd and environment variables, even those are often overridden. The rest can easily be passed explicitly through other channels like pipes or comm

This does not match my experience. Terraform validate will check for types and you have great IDE support with refactor, find usages, resource documentation and everything else you might expect. You can of course build a monster of untyped

Sure you can secure boot the kernel and the game binary itself but then you have all the surrounding support from the OS that also need to interop without being tamperable. Screenshots, network and input devices for example are routed throu

GitHub desperately needs a feature to pin comments in issues or sort by reactions. Very often in those infamous bugs that has been open for years, having hundreds of ”me too” comments, there are gems with workarounds or reproductions, unfor

That’s if you run a OS version older than 5 years. You can still update to a newer Ubuntu version for free and get another 5 years if you pick an LTS version.

To be honest Linux desktop has been ready for the past 4-5 years or so. Long gone are the days where Bluetooth suddenly stopped, external monitors crashing and when closing the lid only put the laptop to sleep every fifth time. Heck, even W

Beyond LiteralString there is now also t-strings, introduced in Python 3.14, that eases how one writes templated strings without loosing out on security. Java has something similar with Template class in Java 21 as preview.

When was the last time you used a library computer, let alone logged onto a private service with it? This was a bad idea even 20 years ago. In today’s security climate, aw hell no.

Agree with the post. The job of blackbox is to turn probes into metrics. If a probe fails, that should just become a probe_success=0 metric. Blackbox did its job and should not log an error.

This is why it’s almost always wrong for library functions to log anything, even on ”errors”. Pass the status up through return values or exceptions. As a library author you have no clue as how an application might use it. Multi threading,

If I understand correctly, this is essentially a more composable way to write Dockerfiles? That alone is a very welcome improvement. They would do themselves a big favor if they were more clear on that in their marketing, instead of boastin

But that dependency order is usually just one big blob of ”COPY src/ . + RUN make”, within that block you have none of the benefits. Bazel/Buck has much finer awareness down to every individual file. Out of curiosity, would it be

From a definition point of view that might be right and it’s no doubt a good step up, compared to continuing with tainted data. In practice though, that is still not enough, these days we should expect higher degree of confidence from our c

Can someone give a tldr of what makes fil-c different from just compiling with clang’s address sanitizer? Calling it memory safe is a bit of a stretch when all it does is convert memory errors to runtime panics, or am I missing something? I

To optimize that code snippet, use temporary variables instead of member lookups to avoid slow getattr and setattr calls. It still won’t beat a compiled language, number crunching is the worst sport for Python.
