I think you missed the point. It doesn't matter if people used paper or anything. They can do whatever they want, as long as their they can commit code to the source control with high quality.

I didn't say print is bad. There is a ton of problems where debuggers alone are not enough and print is required. I meant choosing print when the debugger is readily available and allows developers to get what they need without constan

> The other side is those people who do not find those kind of bugs annoying Anecdotally, I find these are the same people who work less effectively and efficiently. At my company, I know people who mainly use Notepad++ for editing code

Apparently people can't read. I don't know which part of "to me" is not clear. I don't design PCB boards (thus the "useless" word), and the comment was apparently a lighthearted joke in response to another

> Requirements: Mac computers with Apple silicon or AMD GPUs Apple still remembers those Macbook Pros/iMac and Mac Pros with AMD GPUs. A bit unexpected.

Interesting. In Cody training sessions given by Sourcegraph, I saw OpenCtx mentioned a few times "casually", and the focus is always on Cody core concepts and features like prompt engineering and manual context etc. Sounds like fo

Is this similar to what Sourcegraph's OpenCtx tries to do? Has OpenCtx ever gained much traction?

Exactly. I would use the same logic and argue that it is not fair for CEOs flying in private jets when other workers commute in car traffic. If the day comes when Elon Musk, Andy Jassy and alike fly commercial, I wouldn't complain a wo

Well, I wouldn't. Teleportation wouldn't even be necessary in my case as it takes 5 minutes for me to get to my office. I just don't see any point in being in office on days when I am focusing on writing code to push features

I wonder at OpenAI, Anthropic etc, how many people actually believe in "creating generalized artificial intelligence"

A caveat -- FTC is currently looking into the deal between Microsoft and OpenAI.

Read my comment and all previous comments again. Don't write such meaningless words and waste your and other people's time when you don't even understand what people are talking about.

To be honest, it's a pattern I see under every PHP thread: (Neutral) PHP news -> PHP bad -> PHP not bad Even if people didn't actually say "PHP bad"

Which part is condescending? Maybe spell that out? From what I can see it's some pretty unbiased conclusion that's quite reflective of the truth.

My guess: shopping results, followed by sponsored ads, followed by 1-2 results that are not ads but you don't care, some combination of news/Twitter/Youtube videos, more shopping results, then finally real search results. If

It could be much easier for user defined functions to collide with standard functions, especially when it happens unintentionally. Someone else creates a function named array_something in the namespace. Maybe it already exists in earlier ve

I once heard colleagues talking about ISO 26262 and went to look it up. Apparently I need to pay CHF 42 to figure out what's in this "industry standard". Sometimes I don't know which is worse, Elsevier or ISO.

That's exactly who they are targeting, and you can be assured that there are organizations who would be willing to pay for this. Your dentist will be more than happy to pay Microsoft $40/month to manage their desktops.

Curious, do run into any network/IO performance issues? Last time I checked, networking is horrible, I mean `npm install ` would time out when it works on the host without issues, and this was a well known issue. Haven't touched W

Anecdotally, my observation is that SWEs are the group of people who are the least likely to think of laptops as status symbols. People buy $1500 laptops because (they think) they work efficiently on those machines. Otherwise, people are ve

I was amazed by the amount of ads on the site -- that's a lot. That's when I have uBlock origin and almost only ever see subtle text based ads occasionally.

Very few companies would be able to manage a gigantic project like Chromium. I happen to be poking around the Chromium codebase the last few days. The size of the codebase itself is at the same level as all of our company's code. Somet

I know as a matter of fact that many teams'/companys' approach is "We'll develop and run our CI tests on Chrome only. If it breaks on Firefox or Safari, we'll fix it, but that's as much as what we care abo
