Can't speak for anyone else but there was a step change in frontier models last November. Opus 4.5 and GPT 5.2 I think. When I colloquially say Opus level I really mean Opus 4.5 or later

But of course, wholesale surveillance on the rest of the world is fine. I guess our democracies don't count and we don't have any rights.

Maybe they do perform canary deployments and Australia was the canary? Certainly feels like it's disproportionately affecting us down under.

I don't understand why this outage and the Azure outage earlier don't make it to the front page. I'm getting more up to date technical details from the regular media. This outage looks to be huge.

Surprised this isn't on the front page, The whole region is down. * Azure Devops is down globally * Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) is down globally * Multi-Factor Authentication is down globally

The scale on those graphs is wildly different. Office have 120 down reports per period. Reddit has 40,000.

This week I re-created my passion project from 9 years ago. I've done very little Android development since then so it gave me a good opportunity to reflect on what's changed.

Seems like a win / win to me. An investor like Linus would bring a lot to the table.

For other JS developers the stuff about await isn't relevant. It's not the same as a JS async/await In JS an await is just syntactic sugar around a then() on a promise. The Await in the article is a method to block the thread

I've recently been doing some hobby coding on a Commodore 128 and I'm getting the hang of editing basic programs without being able to edit inline very well. I use the list command to dump out sections of the program until I find

Good reasoning in the article. Acknowledges that refusing them service won't take the site offline but makes a good argument for doing so. "They are no longer Cloudflare's problem, but they remain the Internet's problem.

Put another way if you spend 20k hiring and you get a 9/10 male developer you could spend $30k increase the size of the funnel and get a diverse hire of the same quality.

You just need to increase the size of the funnel. If you were going to interview 100 people, interview 150. It's not about lowering the bar it's about making the extra investment to achieve diversity. It's worth it.

Perhaps an unpopular opinion around here but I see nothing but positives in this announcement. This move towards a "good" Microsoft has been going on for a decade, ASP.NET MVC was released as Open Source in 2009. Seeing where they

Follow up, that same RELEASE mode .NET hello world app shows 153MB in the VMMAP tool used in the blog post, so i's not entirely because of the configuration. I think the issue is that the tool is showing you what is mapped into the add

A hello world .NET application on my machine uses 9KB of memory. 8.2KB is shared, 1.4KB is private. According to the article most of that memory is because it's a DEBUG build and the debug CLR images are large.

More than 7 million domains... Letting that sink in... I'm assuming this list is based on DNS records? I wonder what proportion of those offloaded their SSL to Cloudflare.

My first thought was relief, thank god I'm not using Cloudflare. Where would you even start to address this? Everything you've been serving is potentially compromised, API keys, sessions, personal information, user passwords, the

My wife and I have a private thing where we squeeze each other’s arm three times to say "I love You" It's a pretty cheesy little thing but sometimes when out in public you don't want to make a big show of affection so yo
