Debugging the code base after the vibe coder leaves the project

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Met an active duty member of the military yesterday who filed conscientious objector paperwork in response to deployment of military on U.S. soil.

Was told multiple Army have filed, unknown quantities in other branches.

Trying to move away from Google Workspace and setting up a new/clean personal @tailscale.com network. I can honestly say I didnโ€™t even re-roll very much for this but could not have gotten any closer to โ€œDr. Jโ€ !

Ultramarathon runner breastfeeds her baby 3 times on her way to a surprise win The extreme sport of ultrarunning is known for seemingly impossible feats. But Stephanie Case's recent performance โ€” six months after giving birth โ€” is making waves far beyond the running community.

cmd/compile: slow escape analysis in large package in the typescript compiler ยท Issue #72815 ยท golang/go Go version go version go1.24.1 linux/amd64 Output of go env in your module/workspace: AR='ar' CC='gcc' CGO_CFLAGS='-O2 -g' CGO_CPPFLAGS='' CGO_CXXFLAGS='-O2 -g' CGO_ENABLED='1' CGO_FFLAGS='-O2 -g' ...

TypeScript team: rewrites compiler in Go.

Go community: what do you mean your new compiler takes more than a minute to compile? Unacceptable. Dishonorable even. We are so sorry for this sub par experience. Not how we do things around here.

Two days later: WIP 5x speedup.

HN: why pick Go anyway?

The way I explain AGI to non-tech people is it's the belief that if I read enough book to my dog, there is some threshold at which it becomes a blackbelt in Karate.

I never understand these. We can always tell when you have an LLM during an interview! I wanna meet the person, not the AI.

And if you canโ€™t write some toy code without assistance Iโ€™ll be really worried when you get to an actual complex application.

I love when they even go to the trouble to check that Iโ€™ve declined and give a different nag for the prompt.

Generally I think itโ€™s for NAT traversal so p2p is easier to establish

I must be missing it, but where is the BOM and stl files? The GitHub repo only has the interface/controller code it seems

I am convinced 99% of websites should use magic links + passkeys.

It bypasses all (debatable) portability objections to passkeys, itโ€™s at least as secure as email-based recovery, as fast as a password manager, itโ€™s available to all usersโ€ฆ and importantly, no passwords!

You referring to Apple Music? Iโ€™ve never had issues with offline mode in Amazon Music

11.11.2024 23:08 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 3    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Oh the iOS app also has an offline mode where it only shows what youโ€™ve downloaded too

Amazon Music has an option to download, Iโ€™ve used it a lot when working in the mountains with no service. Iโ€™ve made a few playlists and downloaded them entirely with no issue.

The service itself is annoyingly always pushing podcasts though

Same. Been writing Go for 10y+ but Iโ€™m still typing interface{} instead of fully assimilating generics. Maybe in another year or two Iโ€™ll be readyโ€ฆ

Sure I can do pretty complex data flows, but yeah sometime I struggle with basic math!
