Sure, but you cannot deny the hypocritical swarm behavior, which is the point.

They did say "everything I can find" which, while not citing references, you would also have found it you tried to Google this at all. Here's one https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/24/business/

Having built two production, scaled evented systems over the last decade, I don’t see the need for this. Properly designed events flatten to a table schema in a regular DB quite easily. Tools like Trino/Presto and therefore Athena, let

I am a Go dev, too. I consider Go my main language. The BEAM has a very, very similar architecture to the M:N scheduler in Go. Goroutines are not dissimilar to BEAM processes. You can similarly run thousands of processes on the BEAM. But Go

At least they can patch all of them to fix it at once. 16 year old new drivers are harder to patch.

Elixir and Phoenix is a better production platform than Django.. I’m not throwing shade on Django, many production systems use it happily. I’m saying that Phoenix/Elixir is better, partly because of the BEAM and OTP and partly because

Contrast that with my personal experience of items from the UK ( specifically the UK , my experience is different elsewhere) where “untested” almost always means “I tested it and I know it’s broken but I want to try to get a better price an

I found a similar (though much smaller! 1GB) Kingston drive from about 2008 that had been in storage since I moved overseas. 14 years later it still had all the data on it.

It’s not clear to me from this, but I hope that the “removability” component of this means the end of “disposable” vapes with a fixed lithium battery installed. I can’t even count the number of these I’ve seen littering the roadside. Ideall

While some things are doing great, there's a not insignificant amount of inertia in government for the last decade. This is actively being discussed in the Irish press. And Ireland has a long history of cronyism. I suspected (author cl

Alternatively, it's successful and is expanded to support more artists in the future. Cynicism with governance not unjustified in Ireland, but here we are looking at some actual progress.

These things work well on the extremely limited task impetus that we give them. Even if we sidestep the question of whether or not LLMs are actually on the path to AGI, Imagine instead the amount of computing and electrical power required w

Way back, Perl got off the ground really because, in contrast to the C compilers of the era, code written on one Unix ran on the others, usually unmodified. In my first jobs, where we had heterogeneous mixes of commercial Unixes, this was u

My guess is that you're letting the context get polluted with all the stuff it's reading in your repo. Try using subagents to keep the top level context clean. It only starts to forget rules (mostly) when the context is too full o

I actually had Claude and Gemini both do it and revise each other's work to get to the final doc. Worked surprisingly well.

To a certain extent you are probably still not using it optimally if you are still doing that much work to clean it up. We, for example, asked the LLM to analyze the codebase for the common patterns we use and to write a document for AI age

As AI tools become more dominant, businesses are going to want their documents to be fully read by their AI in whatever format they are in. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a fight over all of this brewing in the next couple of years.

All of this is a mess. But it should never even have been possible for it to fall to a single developer to screw up and commit a key like that. If there were anything like proper processes in place, controls would have made that very diffic

These brands face massive competition from Chinese no-brand electronics on one end, and Apple, Sonos, and many others at the other end. Basically any time a market changes drastically you see older players consolidate. Too often that leads
