Far more likely Ireland, like it is for AWS. Could also be Paris, London, Amsterdam, etc.

Not saying that LLM development isn't fast, but doing a re-implementation of something you know in-and-out is almost always going to be faster, as you skip the probably most time intensive step of product research and requirement engin

I had this almost exact discussion today. Adyen (the payment provider) provides merchants with webhooks so they can update a local modal of payment and payment modification data (checkout). But there is no way (for a merchant) to get the la

I don't think the article tries to argue against the good sides. In my opinion it asks us to not just look at individual gain of using LLM's (which can be powerful), but also place it in context how we as humans built long-term su

In addition, there's about 2x year a 25% sale and you have a year to activate the passes. The in southern Europe (e.g. France, Spain, Italy), required seat reservation is most common and most expensive. I don't mind requiring seat

As a general rule, you always include the currency code (EUR, SEK, USD etc.) and if possible also the amount of decimals, when using minor units. Currency codes can be found in ISO 4217.

What's a problem though is that while it includes a reference, its distillation from the source, or worse, from the combination of sources, is often plain wrong. I check them regularly, and it made me very distrustful of Claude's

This and PEP-783 do remind me a bit of the story of watt (1) and serde_derive, where the latter was published containing a to WebAssembly compiled proc macro with the former as WebAssembly runtime (2). It tried amonst others to improve iso

Their strategy always was "buy company" and "instantly lay off about everyone" to save costs and rapidly increase subscription pricing (1). So far they've been relatively soft (for their doing) on Komoot, which I to

The "local" company is already UK owned though, so at most "European", not national or EU. What I find strange is that the Dutch government does have its own datacenters, e.g. ODC-Noord (1), but they're still lookin

Almost all licenses have requirements to redistribute copies of the work, or derivatives thereof. Even permissive licenses do. It's very little to ask when open source dev's provided thousands of hours of free work. For example, t

I've used Fastmail for years but a year ago switched to Proton. For me the only reason to switch to Proton was that its hosted within the European continent, while Fastmail is hosted in I would say that Fastmail is the "Ferrari of

I would really like to see what "appropriately licensed data" means. Cannot imagine they didn't copy all open repo's on GitHub, and can't imagine they asked for permission, or are reproducing license texts from thes

I've played both Factorio and Bitburner extensively (both >1000h, but that's unfair wrt bitburner, because you let it run in the background sometimes), but I don't find they compare that well. Factorio can be played withou

And if you like Lisp and ownership, there's also Carp [1]. It doesn't mimic Rust's features and naming schemes though. Carp is about 10 years old and has some cool demo's (like SDL for gamedev). > The key features of

There are other reasons why a project like Zig might not want to accept LLM generated contributions. Zig, as programming language, has a multiplier codebase. A bug may affect a significant larger portion of users than most libraries or bina

The Try trait (representing the ? the operation) is super cool though! I wish it was marked stable so you could implement it for types without using the nightly compiler. Note that both Option and Result implement that same trait. Perhaps i

With the advent of AI, these "life" events are probably even simpler to fake than AI though, and unlike the faking of stars not against the ToS.

Fun :) Small idea for improvement: the "fast" text is often over the same space as the ball, which makes it harder to see where the ball would be going.

I am a developer by profession and this is the opposite of what I would want. The code is your ground truth. If all else fails, the code should reasonably be able to tell you why, and by being able to read it, it makes me independent from s

But even that is vague and possibly not true. If they used LLM's to generate all of the code, then it may not fall under copyright, by the requirement of human authorship (which for code I think has not been tested yet in court) [1]. [

I think opt-outs are a bit backwards, ethically speaking. Instead of asking for permission, they take unless you tell them to no longer do it from now on. I can imagine their models have been trained on a lot of websites before opt outs bec

This is annoying, but that they use user-agent solely to check irritates me even more; even (alternative) Chromium based browser like Vivaldi don't work out of the box. I usually use Vivaldi as an alternative when Firefox doesn't

Depending on your needs (i.e. how you would otherwise use your output jspn), using the reviver can have a significant impact on performance. JSON.parse itself is hyper-optimized. At the company I work we used the reviver for almost exactly
