One could argue that with AI writing so much code, the ease with which humans can read & understand it (for review purposes) is even more important than before.

Exactly, that's all his PR had to be. The history of finding the issue could be an interesting story (I bet it involves Elixir!), but in places it reads as almost malicious. If I received a PR anything like that on something I maintain

I remember the "History of English Podcast" covering a lot of this. I'm more a programming language nerd than spoken language, but I still found it fascinating. Old English was a Germanic language, later heavily influenced by

Zed is the only GUI editor I've used as my daily driver after 15+ years of development (hardcore vim fan). Vim Mode is wonderful, the terminal pane works well, UI is butter-smooth, LSP integration beats VS Code's IMHO, and the LLM

I've gotten around this by using the Page Visibility API - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Page_Visibi... . Close the SSE connection when the page is hidden, and re-open when it beco

I LOVE Cool Retro Term! I mean, every once in a while. But if I’m sharing it in Zoom, I’m damn sure re-opening my tmux session in CRT.

On the contrary - “Let the millionaires/billionaires do whatever they want” has been a core pillar of their platform for decades. To be fair, Democrats are historically only marginally better in that regard.

That's my argument - if we collectively care, it should happen automatically. Alas, no one else seems bothered by the status quo.

Right? I seem to be the only high-level SWE at my company who hates RuboCop. Some of it's fine (e.g. no globals, use x.count { ... } instead of x.select { ... }.count). But so many of the rules are obsessed with trivial details like th

"Rust lacks function overloading, templates, inheritance and exceptions," ...sounds good to me!

My first job in the late 2000's was at a small university with a home-grown ERP system originally written in the 80s (Informix-4GL). Student records, employee records, financials, asset tracking - everything. It used natural compound k

I believe some of the Zed folks invented Atom back in the day. But yes, it doesn't seem like a highly relevant comment...

Compared with VSCode, absolutely. VSCode has a range of responsiveness from "good enough" to "oh right, this is Electron". Zed is both faster and more consistent. Sure, we're talking 10s of milliseconds, but it&#x27

My first thought is "WTF!" But my second is this: every single person who's ever criticized Boeing is going to die (eventually). With so many people in a position to notice and speak out about Boeing's issues, it isn&#x2

Ditto! The only thing that occasionally bumps me is a few missing features in vim-mode (marks & recording). But it feels so much faster than VS Code, I'm willing to put up with it so far.

My experience exactly. I think the DRK (Don’t Repeat Knowledge) acronym (not my invention) is a better target. Too often people mistake similar structures of code as “repetition”. Instead, if you focus on not repeating the important “knowle

While we're being absurd, are there any open source/copyleft licences that specifically forbid uses in war or weapons? I guess the gov will do whatever they want, but it would be interesting to see how it played out.

Weird that the internal systems communicate via an Ingress, but I guess that's government contractors for you. Clearly they should have gone with Istio instead.

If you can't prevent some users from having passwords, it's a decent, low-effort way to discourage intrusion attempts. One place it DOESN'T necessarily work great is in k8s. A few years ago I had to migrate an ancient VM runn

Always a good read, but it needs an update with modern cultural references. Even I, nearly middle aged, have very little idea what it means to compare X.org to Iran-Contra and Regan's spending habits.

Impractical ideas can be entertaining, even useful, thought exercises. Valid ideas and discussions can occur, even if the starting point is out of reach.

True, but we're already paying for not having it.

Wow, running Ubuntu 19.04 on an XPS 13 and this was a very noticeable boost. I knew it had gotten slower but I'd forgotten by how much. I'm just ignoring what I've potentially opened myself up to...

What you're describing sounds kind of awesome, but it's not "homeschooling." It needs a different term. And you're right, we don't know which OP is considering. But given that money will be tight...probably not

I'm a work from home dad (100% remote full-time developer) with a 3 year old. I was home-schooled myself, so your situation is not entirely foreign to me. As you can imagine, you will find this incredibly difficult. You might be able t

I cannot help but wonder if the over-enthusiasm for microservices these past few years is a direct result of the over-enthusiasm for "MVC" these past 10 years or so (since Rails). MVC outlines very clearly the areas of responsibil

It's certainly unfortunate, but "ridiculous" is a bit much. It's just a fact of history. FF is based on a very old codebase, before sandboxing and multi-process arch. was a thing in browsers. Chrome is much younger, and
