If you want your organization to use your current username, you’ll need to rename your personal account first
Is it possible to automate observing user renames and then create new accounts effectively blocking them?


Liquid glass? Sounds hot. 🤡


A task that might have taken five hours assisted by AI, and perhaps ten hours without it, is now more commonly taking seven or eight hours, or even longer.
What kind of work do they do?
in my role as CEO of Carrington Labs, a provider of predictive-analytics risk models for lenders. My team has a sandbox where we create, deploy, and run AI-generated code without a human in the loop. We use them to extract useful features for model construction, a natural-selection approach to feature development.
I wonder what I have to imagine this is doing and how. How do they interface with the loop-without-a-human?
Either way, they do seem to have a (small, narrow) systematic test case and the product variance to be useful at least anecdotally/for a sample case.


Did you remove your earlier post from two or three days ago? https://programming.dev/post/43579392
I posted a comment there, but looks like what I was asking about is no longer part of the post or repo readme this time around.
While trying to determine whether this is that I noticed you wrote “566 pages of theory” but then 573-page manuscript. I assume it became more pages, or are they different things?


A comment late in the thread says none of the LLMs even use the PR-suggested llms.txt.
I’ve been using GNU Cash for many years.
The UI is kinda bad, way too complex, and the banking API integration is cumbersome and lacking.
That’s all negatives, and it sounds pretty bad, but it’s still my banking app.

scrolling is also quite limited to only the content area


if the software developer had experience with AI
Did these developers not have experience with AI?
and were to start on a new project, without any existing context
I’m not sure focusing on one aspect to scope a reasonable and doable study automatically makes it “really low effort”.
If they were to test a range of project types, it’d have to be a much bigger study.


Before starting tasks, developers forecast that allowing AI will reduce completion time by 24%. After completing the study, developers estimate that allowing AI reduced completion time by 20%. Surprisingly, we find that allowing AI actually increases completion time by 19%–AI tooling slowed developers down.
The gap and miss is insane.


Nodes only know their neighbors.
When this makes me think of gravity and how that propagades huge distances (if not endlessly until practically ignorable), would that be correct or wrong for this aspect?
What does ‘neighbors’ mean in this context? Is it meant as something more local, constrained, or scoped towards local physical locality?


nice cigar


A relatively uncommon but reasonable, good approach to issue management.
Discussions allow for different formats, including explicit voting, which is useful for things like feature requests.


Video shows them opening the hackaday website and pressing “accept all” on the “share and sell personal data with and to third parties” dialog. 🙈


Just gotta close it off on both ends<===>
(parens for round ends didn’t look good)


Looks like they’re planning to integrate voctoweb into the Fediverse.


I don’t get what your bridge example is supposed to show, nor what normalizing substandard practice has to do with politics or lack thereof.
Depending on where you look there’s plenty of shoddy construction work and cutting corners for cost, big projects are notorious for taking longer and costing more in the end. Construction had more time to develop and be regulated, and has more physical limitations compared to software development. Both, in the end, can be (theoretically) held accountable before court.
is to be able to communicate this effectively with management
Isn’t this politics? Why are you saying politics has no place in engineering principles?
Software engineers are much more replaceable than construction engineers/architects, both in-discipline and with less expertise.
I do my part in what I can influence and control, delivering good and sound products, but it’s obvious depending on individuality doesn’t work across our whole industry.
/edit: The linked article talks about how in-company politics are necessary to coordinate and deliver features. I don’t see that addressed here either? How would you deliver - taking the example from the article - Latex in Markdown on GitHub without politics?


I worked on and created a lot of things, but when thinking ‘cool’, the fractal rendering I did a long time ago popped into my mind as well. It just looks cool, interesting, has variance and experimentation, and is very visual.
I can’t read this because it’s not in
