Yep... I've seen exactly this happen. People losing data/access by their own fault and yet being extremely mad at the OS developer or the company they have an account with. And, no, it does not matter if you tell them 100 times that they are responsible for not losing their own keys/passwords, they will still be furious that you set up your system in (from their perspective) such a shitty way that it's even possible for a permanent lockout to happen.
Why is the author so confused about the use of the word "organization"? Every account in Claude is part of an organization even if it's an organization of one. It's just the way they have accounts structured. And it's not like they hide this fact. It shows you your organization ID right on your account page. I'm also pretty sure I've seen the term used when performing other account-related actions.
I prefer audit tables. Soft deletes don't capture updates, audit tables do (you could make every update a delete and insert in a soft delete table, but that adds a lot of bloat to the table)
If I'm already in the terminal, they're perfect for quickly looking through and editing files. Heck, I've done it plenty where I'm in the VS Code embedded terminal to run some commands and then I want to quickly touch a file and so I open neovim inside the VS Code terminal!
Some of them even give you access to this stuff. C# has Vector<T> which picks implementations of various operations based on the current CPU's capabilities. But they also let you have complete control if you want by providing functions in the System.Runtime.Instrinsics namespace.
> But I am not sure they ever actually worked with analysing data more than using it as a log parser.
It really feels that way. Real data analysis involves a lot more than just grepping logs. And the reason to be wary of starting out unprepared for that kind of analysis is that migrating to a better solution later is a nightmare.
It's possible to have contrast too low, that doesn't mean maximum contrast is the best. Even HN doesn't go full black on white, the background is off-white.
And of course if it has access to run the code that it's developing, it can also do anything it wants because it can just add code that performs the operations it is trying.
Not everyone is handling PII. Where I work, anything like that is only available to a very limited set of people who absolutely need to be able to see it. Also some systems allow access control at the column and even row level, so even if it's intermingled with other data you want the LLM to read, you might be able to mask it that way.
Also, people shouldn't be running any LLM on data of a business without a proper contract in place like you have with any vendor who has access to your data. And if there's specific PII requirements, those should be covered too.
> Yes, UAC could be considered as annoyance by some but it's no different than "sudo" on single-user Linux machines and we seemingly have no problems with that (I wish we'd move on past that because it is damn annoying and offers no security benefit).
It was wild to me when I was testing out if I wanted to move over to Linux as my full-time desktop OS how much it was asking for my password. And it didn't even have a mechanism to make it a little less painful such as requesting a short PIN (which I think is a fine option as long as a few incorrect PIN entries forces full password input).
It's weird that they made a mistake of allowing this after having so many years to learn from their mistake about copies already being non-obvious (by that I mean that references and copies look identical at the call sites)
They do. To the point where I'm getting absolutely furious at work at the number of times shit's gotten fucked up and when I ask about how it went wrong the response starts with "ChatGPT said"
I haven't really noticed color fringing since changing from a 1st gen panel to a 3rd gen panel at a higher PPI. What I've been curious about though is why the fringing on vertical stripe RGB isn't as noticeable. I would expect to see fringing horizontally for that layout.
I'm glad you have some evidence of it being nothing remotely new. Reading these comments I was starting to feel like I was crazy for remembering that he had always been pretty nasty.
Wrong. If my password manager doesn't auto-fill I'm am immediately far more wary. If I didn't have any URL matching in the password manager then I would very quickly stop paying close enough attention to the URL because I'd have to do it too frequently.
"Lagged" alone is valid, but it is slightly less clear. Because, while it would be atypical, "X lagged Y" could be read to mean that X caused Y to lag. "X lagged behind Y" removes that ambiguity.
I just uninstalled Zed today when I realized the reason I couldn't delete a file on Windows because it was open in Zed. So I wouldn't speak too highly of the LLM's ability to write code. I have never seen another editor on Windows make the mistake of opening files without enabling all 3 share modes.
Accurate. I'd pay for Plex if I was supporting the development of software designed for watching your personal media collection. Genuinely I considered it not long ago, until I found out that they'd shifted away from caring about local media.
It's easy to justify: it's cute. Just like the other options up at the top. If you click the sun it turns out the lights and turns your cursor into a flashlight. And it has an actual hamburger as the icon for the menu.
But if this is the case then it means he was a drive failure away from losing everything too. I expect the takeaway from this for many is going to be "fuck Microsoft, and fuck OneDrive". That is a valid sentiment backed up by what happened, but what people REALLY need to learn from this is that backups are extremely important!
What is confusing about that? That's like complaining that you can write an IPv4 address as 001.002.003.004 or 1.2.3.4. Even the :: isn't much different from being able to write 127.0.0.1 as 127.1 (except it now becomes explicit that you've elided the zeroes).
Point #2 is very true for me. I get concerned when I look at a project and see thousands of issues. For safety and to not waste my time, if I see that and the project is an unknown to me, I just have to believe that it indicates the project is not being maintained properly.
I definitely think splitting discussion and issues is a good idea for that reason alone.
