I mean… I’m flattered you think I’m making some kind of statement here but there is no claim. I literally stated an opinion I hold in a comment on HN, I didn’t write a you a thesis. Followed by explaining further the details of that opinion

What background or context do you have that you base this claim on?

I’m saying I don’t think sandbox is a noun, I think it’s a verb. I also don’t get why this is such an issue to you? A container simply is not a sandbox by itself. The collection of technologies that can sandbox can be used to sandbox a cont

To me ‘a sandbox’ is a secured context, which is specific to whatever is in it. It is not a generic thing unless we are literally referring to a real-world box with sand in it, and I’ve kinda hit the breaking point with the term in tech. ‘A

I am so sick of the ‘sandboxed’ AI-infra meme. A container is not a sandbox. A chroot is not a sandbox. A VM is also not a sandbox. A filesystem is also also not a sandbox. You can sandbox an application, you can run an application in a s

Who cares if they’re wrong? The point is respect for their opinions and feelings since you’ll have to work with them for twenty years. If you respect them, you get to do what you want to do and they won’t fuck with you or shoot down your pr

The thing that makes someone trustworthy is taking accountability for your own self and actions, but having boundaries such that you don’t take accountability for the selves and actions of others. That’s basically all I want to see from a m

I brain-typo’d the title into a 12-year-old girl’s bug taking down Solidity and this, frankly, does not live up to that hype

Not really if they don’t have any security or even devsecops yet… if they just have devs and those devs are people who are relatively junior / just out of school, I could unfortunately absolutely see this happening

Literally all they have to do is make sure all women have maternity leave, and paid childcare for the first three years, and set limits on how high prenatal and birth medical bills can be. You’d think a bunch of supposedly “pro” “natalists”

/fit/ and /mu/ were good to me in my late teens, and /ck/ is the reason I actually asked my roommate’s mom to show me cooking basics when I was in college!

Well as shown by the original Communists, total redistribution just lets greedy people on the inside skim off the top. A taxation system with a properly constructed social safety net on the other hand, which is what I think you’re describin

LLMs are not a miracle, they are a type of tool. The hype I am angry about is the “black magic? Well, clearly that can solve every problem” mode of thought.

While I’m surprised to see they aren’t writing about https://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/lpeg/ it looks like they’ve covered LPEG in a previous post, and their chosen method this time around is neat anyway!

If only every copyright lawyer in the world could suddenly band together and descend on them in a horde. This is such a disgusting abuse of book authors, who are usually not the big guys. As a non-author myself, I don’t care about the publi

This does not seem like it is going to help the IRS do a better job with tax arithmetic.

Yup as long as it’s done in a scientific way and published under peer review doesn’t matter who did it - that’s the great thing about blind publication review in a lot of fields

Palm oil is not sustainable, period. It’s either being grown on plantations where forest used to be or more plantations are being cut out of the jungle to meet growing demand.

There are a ton of Native American bees, though most of them do not hive together and are solitary. Mason bees are an example.

As a person managing projects and also contributing as an IC, having a manager stand between me and my team’s PM was absolutely counterproductive. I know where they were coming from - it would have been great had I not been managing individ

Oftentimes the lowest paid workers end up working the days everyone else has off. Heaven forbid the Walmart or the Kohl’s be closed on any holiday but basically Christmas Day.
