without language level support, it makes code look like a mess. Imagine, 3 level nesting calls where each calls another 3 methods, we are talking about 28 functions each with couple of variables, of course you can still clean them up, but i

Don't underestimate AWS. AWS can make it seamless, so you can run open source models on their hardware. See their ARM based instances, you rarely notice you are running on ARM, when using Lambda, k8s, fargate and others

if it lasts even 1 year with on avg 1 min audio, I think it's nice disposable device to have. Some ideas if you have an app which can be integrated to other services: * I feel sick today, notify my manager about it, probably I will sta

I think this benchmark could be slightly misleading to assess coding model. But still very good result. Yes, SVG is code, but not in a sense of executable with verifiable inputs and outputs.

its not only about SPA vs non-SPA. For example, there is a nice component library, shadcn, of course you can somehow embed it into the project, but to use it productively, you must have a bundler, which is outside of Django ecosystem. Also,

Django is awesome, but I wish there was an easy way to use modern web frameworks with it. A lot of times it's either through Nextjs/Nuxtjs + Django as an API or complex bundling process which requires a file where you register bun

I can give you many reasons, but I am afraid my comment will be flagged. Some of them: * Israel is losing support across the world, because now it can't control the narrative, before it was able, people thought journalism exist, now we

Why is it my earlier comment with so many upvotes got [flagged] ? Is it because I mentioned the entity name? Here is the comment: "It’s ironic how the West has long championed democracy, demanded freedom of speech, and called for human

It’s ironic how the West has long championed democracy, demanded freedom of speech, and called for human rights from everyone. Only to suddenly adopt authoritarian, anti-free speech, anti-human rights, and anti-protest stances the moment fr

This is not a guideline on the code itself, its about tools you use to produce that code. You can similarly ban code written using IntelliJ IDEA and accept only code written using vim or VS Code, but you wouldn't even know if it was wr

I never heard about banning autocomplete as guideline, maybe they failed eventually and we forgot about them? of course its their guideline, but guideline sounds more like fighting against progress. Imagine these: * we ban cars in our

This sounds limiting. I compare LLM generated content to autocomplete. When autocomplete shows you options, you can choose any of the options blindly and obviously things will fail, but you can also pick right method to call and continue yo

Of course primary cause could be ZIRP, but AI definitely accelerated the problem. Interns at big tech maybe impacted less, because their systems are so complex, but when I look at job boards or talk with engineers I see they're mention

I wonder about the implications of this tech. State of the things with doom scrolling was already bad, add to it layoffs and replacing people with AI (just admit it, interns are struggling competing with Claude Code, Cursor and Codex) What&
