You still have things like git squash etc.

Ouch, reminds me of hours debugging OAuth2 implementation in my Surface 1 app for Twitter because the nonce or some other checksum was not calculated correctly.

If I am not incorrect, for early boot applications, the application must be set to use the native subsystem.

Apparently they are recruiting from Kenia too, promising great pay, but in reality they are being abused as cannon fodder.

Also take the randomness out of it. Sometimes the agent executing tests one way, sometimes the other way.

Honestly it is a problem with using GPT as a coding agent. It would literally rewrite the language runtime to make a bad formula or specification work.

That's what I like with Factory.ai droid: making the spec with one agent and implementing it with another agent.

> US software providers can shut down their software services in an instant, paralyzing European societies.

And no US SaaS provider or cloud provider will ever be trusted again, instant cutting off a part of the US economy.

Meanwhile for weeks at a time I got obvious spam and phising right in my inbox. It just didn't stop. Twenty mails per day. I was about to cancel my Office 365 subscription; and then from one day to the other it just stopped.

> it turned out that the version in source control wasn't the version running in production and it would have been quite a lot of work to reverse engineer the production version

When I started at my work, a previous software dev with practices more like a mechanic than a software dev didn't use tags and all binaries deployed to production were always the default version 1.0.0.0 of the C# project templates in Visual Studio. To make matters worse, variants of the software were just copy pasted in CVS with their core code checked in as binaries and not their original C# projects. Fun times finding out what actually ran on production, and patching anything in it!

It is just a button. Default it starts the Copilot app which is really the Office app that already existed but now with the copilot tab preselected. Also that Copilot runs in the cloud and doesn't use your NPU.

The only thing until now I've found using the NPU are the built in blur, auto frame and eye focus modes for the webcam.

> Webview2 with React to share code with the Web versions.

In a complicated Excel sheet I had the Conditional Formatting Rules Magaer crash due to an issue in EmbeddedWebView2.dll. Renaming it helped preventing the crash without obvious decline in functionality in Excel, until I tried to join a Teams meeting which obviously uses WebView2.

Even XBRL caved to JSON with XBRL-JSON. XBRL, of all standards.

“Support” here probably means “we’re testing jQuery for compatibility on those web browsers” - likely Safari from iOS 16 still runs this version of jQuery just fine. However, running automated test suites or support bugfixing for those clients is a lot harder than spinning up some Microsoft-provided VM with IE11 on it.

Mark Rutte is more of an administrator than truly the head of NATO. A spokesperson. NATO is a committee.

> The developers who get displaced are the ones doing purely mechanical work that was already well-specified.

And that hits the offshoring companies in India and similar countries probably the most, because those can generally only do their jobs well if everything has been specified to the detail.

At work we’re incrementally rewriting a legacy Javascript Electron application in Blazor / C# WASM. The biggest issue we’ve run into as far as WASM interop goes is that it is not really possible to pass objects between WASM and JS. It requires some form of serialization to JSON or a different blittable format. Since the data we work with in the application is quite large, this has caused some headaches.

I think HTTP web sockets would be an interesting tunneling protocol.

Interesting - why did they chose to rebuild the menu system of Doom 3 OG?

I doubt you learned anything as all your posts are em-dashes LLM outputs about lightning.

SSH using GPG Yubikeys and git signing using GPG was quite a process to set up on Windows a few years ago. Not something I'd want or know how to repeat. Hopefully things have improved in the mean time.

Apple iPad Pro 2021. It replaced a failing aging Microsoft Surface tablet but is so much less powerful. It is really just a phone with a keyboard. It becomes real powerful used as a remote desktop client to my Windows computer though.

If this analysis is sound, I wonder if it can be mitigated by using tools instead of structured outputs.

For me it is quite a list.

However, it is not easy figuring out which of those script are actually a SysVInit script and which simply wrap systemd.

Since it will be a virtual machine, its performance can be arbitrarily reduced.

Except actions/ai-task. Im sure that one will come.

Does a knife help there?

More power usage though.

J2ME had much more trouble. Basically on every OS and variations of those for different phones your app could behave differently or not run at all.

I have documented the fusebox at home, but I just used some careful measuments, a Word tabel with a fixed width, and a few tries.

This feature is actually useful and M365 Copilot Enterprise already has this for a while. It is actually quite useful because it basically has access to all public (“public” as in: accessible to any employee) information in a company - on Sharepoint - plus your own mailbox. It helps finding information I otherwise couldn’t have found easily with the company-wide search functionality.
