Doesn't fingerprint mean that someone could knock you unconscious and unlock it with your finger? I don't know if I'd install my bank apps here.

I was actually looking forward to a smaller iPhone. To have less addictive screen time. It looks like the Air was a once-thing. I don't see them releasing an e-ink phone either. Maybe the answer lies in only wearing an Ultra watch if i

This gives new meaning to the fish shell (fishshell.com)!

This is one of the scenarios where I feel we as engineers should have been more diligent in publicly writing down what techniques have worked in which scenarios and what haven't, and the AI could have gathered decades of operational kn

Maybe the retry logic was vibecoded instead of using an existing hardened library. After all, according to Twitter, nobody is looking at the code anymore.

Meta commentary but it felt fresh to read a long wall of text that didn't seem to be AI generated. Thanks.

I think that the new version of this is using your work's LLM account (potentially more powerful) to do personal work

Are there modular databases with clearly differentiated components? I wouldn't be surprised if there aren't, as the trade-off with modularity is usually performance.

So, can I run this on top of RustFS? And RustFS on top of this?

Direct access to the database, and create the "refund program" on the fly. Yes, stuff of nightmares.

I don't think it's either black or white. That said, I wanted to highlight that some adults do have some neurodivergence, which, in a way, makes them a bit naive and unable to navigate the game you mention. There is no need to be

These companies do some marvelous engineering work, but it seems that the engineering skills get you in, while the political skills get you through performance reviews. There should be a FAANG-like acronym that encompasses great companies t

Yes, this looks similar to wslc announced at Microsoft Build. They should have joined forces, Apple and Microsoft. Can you imagine?

Are you not entertained? Is this not why you are here?

I do find it annoying. Let's say in JS I have `result = list.map(f)` but now `f` returns a Promise. `result = await Promise.all(list.map(f))` is less pleasant to read. And before writing it, I have to think if I want the `f` function t

My read. If the code has a comprehensive feature test suite, a performance test suite (how long a function takes), and a linter with readability guidelines (e.g. cyclomatic complexity; no code duplication), and the LLM rewrite passes all th

Meta, but if I had a question like this, I'd likely have asked on Twitter or Reddit first. I'll keep in mind using HN as an alternative Q&A site.

I'm curious how escape analysis works with virtual threads. With the asynchronous model, an object local to a function will be migrated to the old generation heap while the external call gets executed. With virtual threads I imagine th

It would be interesting if it allowed to use the cache as ram and could boot without any sticks on the motherboard.

Very similar config, but I bought a second pair of ram. Running 4 sticks at 3600. Also, the LAN port of the motherboard stopped working after a week, so I had to buy an Ethernet card
