Obviously it it no longer in the environment

At least it is the plot of a lot of movies of this era: Dr. stragelove, wargames, colossus.

Reminds me of "the front fell off"

Ten more years and our tricks become the ancient practices and rituals of the olden hack0rs; stuff like apt update and apt upgrade on a fresh server. Some of the most ancient even use apt-get, while the really old ones will scold you for using Ubuntu

This is also my first impulse. The second was, if this happened to me, I would not be able to recover it. All the custom c tool talk... If you ask Claude Code it will code something up.

Well that he recovered the disks is amazing in itself. I would have given up and just pulled a backup.

However, I would like to see a Dev saying: why didn't you use the --<flag> which we created for this Usecase

Es gibt den auch als Film. Der ist auch nicht für schwache Gemüter

This would have greatly helped me. I always was at a loss which trick I had to apply to solve this exam problem, while knowing the mathematics behind it. Just at some point you had to add a zero that was actually a part of a binomial that then collapsed the whole fromula

But can it count the R's in strawberry?

Programming will become like knitting. You buy most of your cloth of the shelf, but there is a quality to a hand made pullover, well you wouldn't want to wear it, but you love to make it.

Last year I got two coworkers. My first in terms of coding. First I looked at everyone code request, but it soone overwhelmed me. We got a third and there was no way I could oversee everything and since I got a team of three management gave me other responsibilities on top.

I have no idea what they code and how they code it. I only go over the specs with them. Everything got quicker but the quality went down. I had to step in and we now have e2e-Test for everything. Maybe it's too much, but bugs got squashed and catched before we shipped.

So that's a win. Before I could test everything by hand. I worked more on things like creating a working release cycle and what tools we should use.

With or without AI the situation would have been similar.

I became a manager. We move the needle. I don't really get to code anymore and I don't see much of the code. It's strange.

AI can't hold copyright (as for now) how will this affect licencing?

Or kubernetes, the factorio for Ops

Well you have to keep it at operating temperature

Great, how did you build it? Also I have to read the books

Thank you for your service

Did any of the taxes came to fruition? Weren't they cancelled by the US high courts?

I think it's valuable to help my users if something like this happens to their office app and I have to find out how to turn it off

And since AI knows every Tailwind page, you probably do not need the paid offer for a decent looking page.

Well you always could just read the docs instead of using the paid offer. Took longer. Not anymore.

How close is Odoo to the Django Stack? In my mind, since both are python, I always thought it was some kind of Django fork,l. I bet I am wrong. So how came Odoo into being?

On good days you could use a solar collector to boil water and generate electricity with it

Also he will looke reasonable by just invading Ukraine instead of the whole of Europe

Accelerando is one of my favourite too! Thanks for sharing the reply, always love book recommendations

There was a good talk some years ago at some of the CCC events where some guy found out that scanners sometimes change numbers on forms.

That's a thing I always marvel about - how LLMs are so versatile and do so much stuff so good that was out of reach just some years ago

As someone whos commit message are: fix, fix again, this hopefully works, again.

I am sure AI cannot even glims the frustration I feel committing these commits.

You can argue, that these messages are as poor as the code that I have written; but don't tell me you haven't been there -- and if you have please tell me your secret

Before the rise of the llms there was a post here on hn where someone explained how to use all the dashes — sadly llms took them from us

Yes - this is exactly the problem. Big Corporations, like Microsoft, the owner of Github, can shut you out. If you lose access to your E-Mail, or anything connected with your Microsoft Account (or Google Account) you will lose access to a lot of services that relie on it. And if you keep your source code with Microsoft and Microsoft only, you can lose access to it too.

Yes, but they work differently. Due to their decentralised nature there is not one switch they can turn to shut off their services or programmes. US companies can be ordered to stop their services for certain organisations, individuals or states

In The 2022 Invasion of Russia into the Ukraine Tanks played an important role in the offensive and the counter-offensive especially around Kyiv, Mariupol, Severodonetsk, and Avdiivka

It is time for an emdash manifesto
