Mermaid works great for fixed layouts like sequence diagrams and Gantts. For flowcharts, where position is king, it's bad.

I've tried using svg in my MD files but they get unwieldy quite fast. This is a great idea. My first reaction was - but what's if I need something more exact. But reflecting on it, I've realized that this relative positioning is probably enough.

I think the Hugging Face incident proves that isn't as clear cut as you say.

Spoke like a true manager.

I can see how the author put some work in this article. But I can't handle any more AI speak, even more after spending the whole day talking to Claude. It's too bad - blogging has been dying (well, at least in decline) for half a decade, and AI might be the final nail in the coffin.

"You sound like a robot m" has a whole new meaning for me.

There are two fallacies in your analogy.

Segfaults are precise symptoms - they occur only when there's a memory issue. Autism isn't precise, is a collection of characteristics that manifest differently in each person.

Genetic is, for the purpose of this conversation, a precise diagnosis - means you carry parent genes that will cause the issue. Memory management isn't: what caused it? Code error? OS error? Processor? Is it a bad code path or a unexpected exrtenal state?

Finally, an analogy of your analogy: you measure someone temperature and it's 40C. You diagnose a fever.

Segfaults are fever, just a symptom.

I use Dark Reader on my Firefox Mobile and on any of my pc browsers.

Commercially it's better to have AMD support CUDA which can help break Nvidia soft monopoly.

Never heard of this... Any examples?

Reads like religion, not fact based analysis.

I'm by now past the point where I thought "this is a great tool that will help me programming" to the fear phase where I know it will destroy my job and career. But still I can't agree fully with the article. Hallucinations are not the issue. We can extract value from it even when it does hallucinate.

The only reason we're having this discussion is because AI is intelligent and therefore poses a threat to us.

Exactly

Sure they do. And yet they still stand, which says something about their quality

Hard read as the AI tells are everywhere. Too bad; as a tale of a different time it could be interesting.

That's what affecting me the most. Pure Claude hallucinated analysis that the poster has not really read; worse part is that I can ask Claude for the same analysis, so there's no benefit, only long questions that waste my time.

Don't forget to flip the photo and them flip the monitor.

You sound fun!

In Brazil we had a soccer player who was the cover of a gay magazine back in the 90s. That was the wallpaper of choice.

As a professional coder, I both agree and deeply hate this position.

And code indeed has its values. See all algorithms invented by Carmack like BSPs, z-fail, etc.

Thank you! I always see this stupid conversation about performance and nobody seems to get this.

~don't~ be evil

Me too. Why I clicked the link.

Poor AI labs... All they hard earned training, done via scraping a lot of people works for free, now being scraped through payed subscriptions...

What's tangled? Which Gleam?

Looks nice, congratulations.

I feel like we've done full circle. Languages are back to being (mostly) procedural. I'm not sure I like it, but it seems that this is what people prefer.

Personally, I'd rather see something like dependant types on a dotnet language. An addition, not just a simplification.

Given both Lua and python use a enumerator, the C++ example isn't really the correct equivalent.

  for (auto [i, v] : std::views::enumerate(vec)) {
      std::cout << i << ": " << v << '\n';
  }

This is how you'd do it.

People don't understand the difference. They talk about preservation, without acknowledging that a PlayStation can refuse to play a disc if servers say so.

Who the fuck designs these flows...

Highly doubt. Pace for merging requests have not improved and teams at MSFT are terrible at reviewing said PRs. Longer PRs and more frequent requests were clearly creating more friction.

Probably masters. Few reasons:

- it's easier to keep going than to come back from a job. - our industry is changing, heavily, and I have no idea what shape it'll be in in four years time. - I think that AI is making much of the experience of an entry level redundant. What you get from your masters might make more of a difference.

I find this funny. Temps are always above 30C here during summer.

Why even use rust...
