For decades, resilient software was built on the healthy friction of peer review. Today, AI coding assistants are creating a "solo dev army." But what happens when your pair programmer is a machine designed to agree with you? spaceout.pl/the-rise-of-th…

@ccccjjjjeeee @swyx So when you say write custom harness, that contradicts a bit “did not look at the code “, seems misleading a bit … so which one, did it port everything by itself or you had to babysit ?

@swyx Issue: like all other models, 5.3-codex will still lie about finishing work, change tests to make them pass, etc. You need to write a custom harness each time. Aha moment:

It actually worked! For the past couple of days I’ve been throwing 5.3-codex at the C codebase for SimCity (1989) to port it to TypeScript. Not reading any code, very little steering. Today I have SimCity running in the browser. I can’t believe this new world we live in.

Tried using chat gpt to count a number of statuses in 100 short sql entries … keep on forgetting it’s a word sequencer, it simply cannot count, no matter how clever math functions you will input into training data it’s still just a statical machine not an Ai

🦀 Async Rust has some really subtle behaviors you need to understand. One nasty edge case: future cancellation + tokio::select! can quietly land you in a deadlock that’s brutal to debug. This write-up is a great deep dive: rfd.shared.oxide.computer/rfd/0609 #rust #rustlang

The AI hype around giant LLMs is fading—real-world AI is powered by smaller, smarter models. From fraud detection to real-time vision, here’s why production AI left the LLM “bubble” behind. (spaceout.pl/the-great-corr…) #AI #TechTrends

My CISO called me at 3 AM last Tuesday. "We caught someone." I asked, "Caught them doing what?" He said, "Typing." Let me explain. We have an employee in IT. Great worker. Always online. Never complained. Perfect Slack etiquette. One problem. His keystrokes were arriving 110 milliseconds late. One hundred and ten milliseconds. That's 0.11 seconds. The average American remote worker has 20-40ms of latency. This guy? 110ms. Every. Single. Keystroke. My security team ran the numbers. That latency doesn't come from a bad router in Ohio. That latency comes from Pyongyang. Our "Senior DevOps Engineer" was a North Korean operative. Running his work laptop through a laptop farm. In America. While he worked from a government building. In North Korea. He passed the interview. He passed the background check. He passed the vibe check. He did not pass the speed of light. Here's what people don't understand about physics: Light travels 186,000 miles per second. But it still has to go through China. And China adds latency. Since April, Amazon has caught 1,800 of these attempts. Eighteen hundred. I called an emergency meeting with my board. I said, "We need to implement Keystroke Velocity Auditing across all remote employees." They said, "That sounds invasive." I said, "You know what else is invasive? The Democratic People's Republic of Korea in your Jira tickets." They approved the budget. We now monitor keystroke timing to the microsecond. If your latency exceeds 60ms, you get a call from HR. If it exceeds 100ms, you get a call from the FBI. We've already flagged 47 employees. Turns out 44 of them just have bad Wi-Fi. 3 of them are "still under investigation." The lesson? You can fake a resume. You can fake a background check. You can fake an American accent on Zoom. But you cannot fake the speed of light. Physics is the ultimate background check. Hire accordingly.

@twannl What if you are more interested about your data plan than bat life ?

Stop killing your apps — you’re not saving battery, you’re draining it. 🪫

Full code execution, that’s pretty serious vulnerability… I guess maybe react should stay in the ui land

Although I have whooping 94 followers, my posts have between 4 to 13 impressions, is this pay to be seen platform ? Kinda ridiculous

@svpino That’s what the “corporates” want to think … but they don’t even know if this will be actual cost beneficial, silly snippets maybe fine for sonnet but what about full fledged systems. How much power and tokens will you need for that ?

They have been saying this for 18 straight months. Only fools will believe it at this point.

So nobody is talking about sustainability anymore, no net zero, no green this or that … it’s all about can Ai maximise our profits, automate this and automate that … but when asked about actual cost and environment impact nobody can say anything …

Gdzie hostować Wordpressa? Oraz dlaczego tam? Ma być dobrze, względnie szybko, względnie tanio i z dostępem przez ssh. I bez głupich metryk w rodzaju unikalnych odwiedzin.

@WindowsLatest What i need windows for is run steam, epic and gog galaxy …

Microsoft is integrating "Ask Copilot" into the Taskbar on Windows 11. Microsoft says it hopes Copilot becomes a "natural part of how you use your PC, ready to help, guide and collaborate the moment you need it." Copilot will eventually become your Windows Search experience, but for now, it's opt-in. For now, Microsoft says Ask Copilot on Windows 11 will complement the existing Windows Search. Ask Copilot uses existing Windows APIs to return apps, files, and settings, similar to Windows Search, so it won't really solve the issues we have with Search on Windows 11... But it'll give you access to Copilot on the taskbar.

@Copilot “Hey copilot, **** off”

Copilot is now built into Windows 11 — turning every PC into an AI PC. Just say "Hey Copilot" to start a conversation. Try it today: msft.it/6012tBs4a

@Windows Must be all that spyware, hidden widgets, ads and bloatware running in the background. Is windows anything but for games these days ? Might as well start shipping Xbox os to pc’s pretty soon

when your pc fan gets loud for no reason… okay overachiever 👀

Spooky Halloween 👻
