  • Why do so many programming languages have their own package manager?

    Jump

  • i dont understand why you are confused. are you suggesting they should be in the OS? so each library has to be managed at least 6 times and then the ides and language tools have to support all these different stores? i bet ci/cd would just be awesome

    or are you suggesting that all language maintainers work together in harmony and support one another?

    C and C++ dont have package managers because they are older than the concept.

  • as someone who uses ai to help on researching an issue/question - i have no understanding whyvpeople just submit generated code. i realize i just dont use it to generate stuff. i use it to find stuff.

    when this forst came out, i thought non devs would use it for creating an app that they use at home just for them. but no, i constantly see people posting about their project and trying to getvpeople involved. a project fully generated by an llm. or as in the issue here, generating code to be merged into a project..why? i jist dont get it.

  • Student Teacher Sent a Private Snapchat Complaining About Her Workday. An Hour Later, Police Pulled Up to Her School.

  • my knee jerk reaction was thinking the same as you but this very paticular case, i am not sure. i havent made up my mind.

    lets talk about opposite ends and then talk about snapchat

    1. if a person is sitting in mcdonalds saying they want to shoot up a school, we wouldnt think it weird if someone called the authorities. in fact peoples lives have been saved because someone overheard something
    2. in contrast, a private conversation on signal should never be read and everyone should stop using it if it is read.

    now snap chat is neither a public place or an encrypted communication app. it falls in between. it is a social media app. would you be worried if it was facebook? i keep thinking about it. why shouldnt snapchat report it? keep on mind that i have never used snapchat, facebook, or instagram and i thought snapchat was basically for sending pictures. (i am older). but, honest question, why would people expect privacy on snapchat? again, i havent used it and not as "hip", so i am genuinely asking and this isnt a loaded question

  • After killer quarter, Palantir CEO Alex Karp calls AI industry ‘Marxist’: Karp on Monday once again warned that AI frontier labs are too untrustworthy for enterprises.

  • he is not saying the ceos are markist but the llms. i dont think they are markist at all but he doesnt understand what liberal is. even elon's edgy ai will correct elon's twitter posts.

    these people want a facist ai. but ai is made up of the world. these people will train it on science and get mad when it spits out science.

    but seriously, musk is the most confidently incorrect himan on the planet, warching grok correct musk is good tv. i think reddit has a sub devoted to it.

  • so these people not only on their confo, own the building? so when a pipe breaks, there has to be a vote before they hire a plumber? where does the condo end and the building begin? am i allowed to sell my condo or do i lose freedom and need everyone's permisdion? what happens when one person buys sll the condos and now owns the building?

    are you serious with the laptop hosting idea? they are setup for disaster. the security and infrastructure risk here is extraordinarily.
