why a non-decreasing counter? Looking at your solution, if i understand it, is instead of decreasing the inventory count for each sku as orders are processed, you are comparing the current warehouse quantity against the sum of all carts to

don't you then have to keep your IDE config synced across them an open a whole instance for each project? Why even have an OS underneath it at this point? Sometimes it feels like I'm just being asked to install a real linux distro

I think ultimately you still have to pay down tech debt eventually. Either through bankruptcy (throwaway the project) or servicing the debt (refactoring, rearchitecting etc). It's not different than when coding by hand, often we take

Sure but that's orthogonal. Yes you use the right tool for the job. But if the job requires the best intelligence you can get with an LLM, then you use that. Taking as an assumption that the quality of your product is a function of the

The conspiracy version of this is each bad windows release is purposefully extra bad so the next "good" version is perceived as artifically well. It's a shame too, I feel like the underlying OS has some really good engineerin

This follows the standard windows pattern of every release alternating between bad/good. 98 good ME bad XP good Vista bad 7 good 8 bad 10 good 11 bad When 12 comes windows will be tolerable again.

Right I get tha. The point I’m making is that from a users perspective it’s functionally very similar. A non deterministic llm or a non deterministic company full of designers and engineers.

by admax88qqq 11mo ago
Web apps kind of already do that with most companies shipping constant UX redesigns, A/B tests, new features, etc. For a typical user today’s software isn’t particularly deterministic. Auto updates mean your software is constantly chan

Sure I guess, I don't know why UAC gets so much hate while sudo gets so much praise. UAC is strictly better than sudo IMO. Does UAC solve security for windows? Of course not, but we were comparing against sudo here.
22.
by admax88qqq 2y ago
The main difference is that UAC is automatically triggered by the OS and takes over the whole display making it harder to fake/intercept. It’s trivial to put a fake sudo in someones PATH and steal their password

Totally, but most IoT customers are not homelab hobbyists, so I think its defensible for IoT vendors to just hard code known good DNS in their devices instead of relying on broken ISP resolvers. Related story, there was a period of time whe
