For civil suits, you typically need the affected parties to sue. Otherwise, who claims the damages? But this isn’t just civil, it’s criminal. Hacking is a criminal offense. This could be a CFAA violation. That’s landed people life in prison

You definitely save a ton of time over writing it yourself, just not as much time saved as “agentic” coding. I don’t do agentic coding either, I think it’s basically a scam. But using an LLM does mean creating stuff faster, much faster. The

Yeah, tests. You need tests for everything and the tests + API needs to be carefully reviewed. Technically, the implementation need not be read at all. Just APIs, boundaries, and tests. You need unit tests, mutation tests (tests for your te

I doubt it would've made any difference, zero data retention is truly trivial to get around and I think it's highly likely OAI is already doing this. Just use another model to distill, summarize, and/or paraphrase the data an

It is known that ADHD is caused by dopamine disregulation in the brain. If you can’t acknowledge basic science on the matter, then this conversation is useless. It would be like arguing with you over if the sky is blue or green. It is also

You’re correct, where I got confused is the lazy per-method JIT and the tiers of JIT optimization. My understanding is that dotnet only compiles on first function call, or when it has to for things like generics. So, some code is never comp

Right, but if you’re dynamically changing the HTML from JS, like the graphemeos website does, then that’s client-side rendering, which is my whole argument. Embedding the JS in HTML makes zero difference, it’s the same thing. So, they are t

Agreed. If you don’t want to read the code that’s fine, but you have to read the testing code. Otherwise you have no idea what’s going on.

In order to make competition flourish, you require a strong government which squishes anti-competitive behavior. Markets, left to their own accord, naturally tend to monopolies and cooperation. Cooperation just works better than competition

I disagree, the minimalism of C results in writing overly complex code to solve simple problems. Things like type punning and bit hacks are common place in C. The end result is equivalent C code is much more complex than C++. For example, y

Consumers are just easily impressed with car infotainment at this point. If the screen takes less than 1s to respond to input and doesn’t drop 30 frames on every animation, they consider it “good”.

Yes, it’s the same story on android. Apps are sandboxed and security is a top priority… unless you’re Google, then you get elevated privileges across the board, no permission dialogs, and sandbox escapes with no questions asked.

The features of HTML are still greatly limited. You can’t really create applications with just one HTML page and no client-side rendering. You can play a video, sure, but that’s not an application. You can also do magic with CSS but that’s

Right but the implication of a SPA is that it’s an application which has many logical pages, but only one real page. The logical pages are constructed by dynamically updating the DOM using JavaScript. As opposed to navigating to a new,
