jaydeegee··on NetBSD bans all commits of AI-generated code
Licensing which is already a contentious subject within the open source community just got another layer of confusion. I agree with their stance here currently but it's something that needs to be addressed as LLM coding helpers are becoming the norm.
jaydeegee··on Project Gameface launches on Android
As a lefty who has written on whiteboards and blackboards I'd say yes in possibly the smallest way possible.
jaydeegee··on Hurl – CLI for HTTP Requests
As someone who does a bit with APIs and ElasticSearch/OpenSearch this is going in the toolbox :)
jaydeegee··on Ordered back to the office, top tech talent left instead, study finds
Spend 10+ hours and extra expenses commuting, you want to retain valuable staff you have to make that a good value proposition for them.
jaydeegee··on Ask HN: I feel both valuable and worthless
Start a passion project, make a website and put it on github. It will display your skillset in an easily digestible way. Making something that doesn't make money isn't necessarily a waste of time. Also you could join a dev bootcamp.
jaydeegee··on The Format Dialog in Windows NT
About 14years ago in my first week at a new job I cobbled some code together to query our ticketing system (BMC Remedy) as a sort of quasi queue monitor. It's had a few cosmetic iterations but its still running the same backend code.
jaydeegee··on What a major solar storm could do
We did have real mitigation plans for such things, luckily this service was deemed non critical as there really wasn't a workable solution.
jaydeegee··on What a major solar storm could do
Yep 100%, probability is a variable. Weather events were a major consideration for us but things like confirmation of UFOs would also influence that rating.
jaydeegee··on What a major solar storm could do
Our diligence paid off too, those satellites are still up there unbothered.
jaydeegee··on What a major solar storm could do
I've worked in critical infra. We had a risk matrix anything above a certain rating meant it had to have a quarterly update to our executive committee. We had some satellites which had a severe impact. Anyway we raised a case about aliens destroying the satellites which was ranked the lowest likelihood. But due to the matrix it meant our director needed to report on aliens attacking our satellites every quarter.
jaydeegee··on Executing Cron Scripts Reliably at Scale
They definitely are similar and can be used for similar functions but Cadence/Temporal are focused on code orchestration side rather than data orchestration.
jaydeegee··on Executing Cron Scripts Reliably at Scale
100% agree this is a perfect use case for Cadence or Temporal.
jaydeegee··on Executing Cron Scripts Reliably at Scale
Interesting to see how different teams approaches to the same issue. Often when reading this sort of thing I'm in PR mode and question why they did certain things the way they did. Then I realise that has probably been asked and answered a dozen times before it got released.
