Oh god. That's crazy. Not too mad about hitting a SVG bug in Safari desktop. Tested on mobile Safari thought that would be good enough, will fix.

This is cool, but I just got incredibly sidetracked by the fact that author Gavin Shapiro has a fake museum in the arctic (museumzoetrope.org). Half as a ploy it seems to raise the value of his penguin NFTs, half as quite a little prank on

This metaphor totally gets muddied once you consider some of the most optimized programs are run on a single thread in an event loop. Communication between threads is expensive, epolling many io streams is less so. Not quite sure what impli

Looking at their website it seems they're trying to target a slightly less tech savvy audience which are interested in checking on agents while away. Someone willing to blow cash on overpriced AI subscriptions, I could see justifying b

As someone who posts blogs and projects out of my own enjoyment, no AI for code generation, handed edited blog, I still have no idea how to signal to people that I actually know what I’m talking about. Every step of the process could’ve bee

You don’t. A JS dev isn’t going to catch an uninitialized variable in C and probably doesn’t even know the damage nasal demons can cause. You either throw more LLMs at it or learn the language.

Yeah not awesome, heavy irony in this paragraph. Been looking at some other providers recently with comparable prices, my infrastructure isn’t to complicated to migrate just haven’t had the chance to make the jump.

Eventually I always get to a problem I can't solve by just throwing an LLM at it and have to go in and properly debug things. At that point knowing the code base helps a hell of a lot, and I would've been better off writing the en

Because the question almost always comes with an undertone of “Can this replace me?”. If it’s just code search, debugging, the answer’s no because a non-developer won’t have the skills or experience to put it all together.

I was drafting a reply when you sent this, this is the correct interpretation and why I did it.

Yeah as I've dabbled with AI models more and more it's become clear to me how much my mental model is valuable to the programming process. It's easier to debug code I wrote myself then to comb through some AI's mistakes

> Otherwise I’m already freaked out by treating a 32 bit field as a pointer… even if you extend it to first. The cast from a 32 bit pointer to a 64 bit pointer is in fact an eBPF oddity. So what's happening here is that the virtual

I had not heard of T9 before starting the project and getting interested, I'm too young to have experienced owning a pre-touch screen phone. I don't know if the average HN reader knows what T9 is, so I went with a term that I was

Please submit an issue on the Github repo! This is a bug, it should automatically show with words as you type. Include platform details, console logs, etc. I am unable to test every platform alone sadly.

I mean thinking about students as actors of pure bad faith, a student could easily copy and paste any instructions given to them into a LLM and bypass any required training data. Even if an AI company respects the license and the source doe

Love this distro, its the only one that loads fast on web x86 emulation. Sad that they're upping the size but 700mb is still leagues smaller then most other distros.

It's odd ICANN has such a control to effect an countries income just by choosing a good abbreviation. I doubt the creators of the DNS system had any idea that domains would arbitrarily give some countries an extra form of income, profi
