This is the kind of AI stuff that really annoys me. Looking at one of the mutation examples I didn’t see anything that wouldn’t normally be tested by a typical mutation tool. You took a simple, idempotent process and you got an llm to do it slower, less accurately, and using more resources.

If you wanted to marry the two in a new and possibly useful fashion I would say use an llm to analyze the results of a standard mutation test and give guidance on what issues should be acted upon first. An off-by-one calculation could mean somebody loses a million dollars or it could mean a button is grayed out. Standard mutation tools don’t give you that context.

Other than the low chance of you being targeted I would say only expose your services through something like Wireguard. Other than the port being open attackers won’t know what it’s for. Wireguard doesn’t respond if you don’t immediately authenticate.

There’s a little overlap with things like Terraform but it’s not as bad as if they bought the companies that owned Chef or Puppet.

Can’t believe that’s gone through. They took JBoss when they bought RedHat so now it doesn’t have to compete with Websphere and when they bought HashiCorp Openshift doesn’t have to compete with Nomad. At this rate they’ll buy CyberArk and then that’s no more competition with Vault.

Unless we go the way of Independence Day or Three-Body Problem. At this point though I’d also probably say…

That’s odd. I can’t remember the last time I’ve installed USB drivers on Windows. It either works or it doesn’t (like a 75% chance of it working though).

This board also has soldered memory and uses MicroSD cards and eMMC for storage, both of which are limitations of the processor.

Ah, yeah, hard no from me dog. Can we get one of the new Snapdragons tho? Please?

Did something happen or is this just, “Waaaahhh, China baaaaddd!”? It sounds like they actually had better reason to ban TikTok.

If OP has a thrift store nearby it’s pretty likely they can get both for under $30.

It was either questioned by morons or they used a modified version of the tool. Ask it how it feels today and it will tell you it’s just a program!

I’ve never heard anyone explicitly say this but I’m sure a lot of people (i.e. management) think that AI is a replacement for static code. If you have a component with constantly changing requirements then it can make sense, but don’t ask an llm to perform a process that’s done every single day in the exact same way. Chief among my AI concerns is the amount of energy it uses. It feels like we could mostly wean off of carbon emitting fuels in 50 years but if energy demand skyrockets will be pushing those dates back by decades.

I’d be amazed if most of the Pi components weren’t from China but feel free to correct me.

Guess the community for some of these is about to get much bigger. I’m not in the market for an SBC but this is a big negative against the Pi.

Big pharma companies jack up the prices of life saving medicine that’s been affordable for decades and don’t lose a bit of sleep. You bet your ass a hobby electronics company will jack up prices as far as they think they can.

Yeah, I love my teammates but when I leave I’m gonna do like zero “knowledge transfer”. Not my fault you haven’t expanded my team in 5 years or that you keep giving us more and more responsibilities from roles you removed because they were “obsolete” or that you spread us so thin we can’t naturally transfer knowledge as we go.

I think it could be potentially easier to thwart malicious bots than “honest” bots. I figure a bot that doesn’t care about robots.txt and whatnot would try to gobble up as many pages as it could find. You could easily place links into HTML that aren’t visible to regular users and a “greedy” bot would follow it anyway. From there you could probably have a website within a website that’s being generated by AI on the fly. To keep the bots from running up your bills you probably want it to be mostly static.

Vote your conscience while you can. I’m pretty much stuck voting for slightly left of center candidates (in the US) because the opposition is to the right of Kim Jong Un depending on the issue.

For personal projects that’s definitely a good idea. For team projects I like to keep that stuff in the project still so the “experience” of working in the project is mostly consistent.

One of the first things you should do in a repo is add a .gitignore file and make sure there are rules to ignore things like *secret* or *private* etc. Also, I pretty much never use git add . because I don’t like the laziness of it and EVERY TIME one of my coworkers checked in secrets they were using that command.

As someone who practices agile software development I find this baffling. I’ve never started a new project without at least 3 weeks worth of research and requirements gathering (and obviously more as the project rolls on). There are seriously companies out there who are like, “Mmm, I feel like this is gonna be an Electron project. Let’s just lay the groundwork and we’ll flesh out the nitty gritty in a week or so.” 😱
