  • At that point just let me ditch the formality and send over the summary in the first place.

    A tangent a little bit but so much this. Why haven't we normalized using fewer words already?Why do we keep writing (some blogs and all of content marketing) whole screens of text to convey just a sentence of real content?Why do we keep the useless hello and regards instead of just directly getting to the points already?

  • According to modlog it was against Rule#2

  • Wasn't there the same question here yesterday?

  • students

    When I was a student I despised the idea of typeless var in C#. Then a few years later at my day job I fully embraced C++ auto. I understand the frustration but unfortunately being wrong is part of learning

  • I don't think such trend would be so big. And anyone who has used any LLM for programming learns very quickly that those are very far from replacing anyone

  • They don’t want to use those tools, legal or technical, because it goes against the spirit of FOSS, even if it’s to stop someone else who is abusing the spirit of FOSS.

    I'm not convinced. It all started from a license saying "if you want to distribute your version, you have to license it the same". One either plays by the rules or the modification doesn't see the light of day. And at the time of publication, it was rather radical stanceFreedom sometimes has to be enforced

    This is not a story about a company denying free trial to another company because the latter is big. It's about the latter leeching resources from supporters who's money go towards the fleet that serves their 4k VM "trial"

    It is against the spirit of FOSS

  • I know. The world runs on duct-tape

  • I 100% expect so. It's much easier and cheaper to do it this way and also gives them data to train copilot further

    I might be wrong, though

  • I'm not convinced that the number of questions asked is the correct metric. In the end the point is not to have a constant flow of questions, rather constant flow of answers found.

    There is a point in proficiency in language/library/whatever after which it is faster to find the answer in the code/documentation/test example than to wait until another person on even higher level will come and answer your question.Maybe we simply filled out what was needed to be asked in the beginner-bug found-intermediate space and, apart from questions stemming from new versions etc, SO does not need more questions?

    Expectation for everything to constantly grow is unrealistic

  • And as usual, that is not where the costs should be cut. Even with the current relegation of platform (I mean running mission-critical machines in cloud). I wouldn't trust that company to be their customer if I knew they operate like that

  • Picture a semi-governmental company

    Also, relying on 30-day license that has to be refreshed on monthly basis, now with personal emails, is a sev1 waiting to happen. Very unmaintainable

  • And if someone from That Company is reading this: you still have time to do the right thing. You’ve got the rocket science down. Now try ethics.

    💋🤌

  • 🤷 then maybe OP's browser has a problem with the challenge for some reason?

  • When I open slrpnk, a page flashes before. I think it's something like cloudflare but something else. I have no idea how to find out what it is, it redirects very fast. Maybe your IP got marked by that service?

    EDIT: found it. Maybe try reaching out to slrpnk admins?

  • When a building needs maintenance bad enough that it doesn't pass a set of regulations, it will get closed until fixed. Maybe we need something like that for IT infrastructure

  • Thank you for sharing that

    But that ties you career to a stance. Which for sure often is a boon for many but not necessarily. The fact that one decides that something has to be spoken out does not mean that they for sure want to be from now on "locked" in politically involved jobs. I'm wondering if HR in some "just business" corp would not see such point in CV as a red flag, and if so if that would be majority, minority, 50/50?

  • I always wonder if those fired because of protests face some problems with finding another job?

  • Thank you

    So basically, it's like inheritance but for traits?

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    Are there any "text caches" that we still are not sure what's inside?

    TIL Gravity is not about mass pulling other mass. It's mass bending time spacetime that makes other mass get closer
