Let’s all just wait for the new versions of languages, frameworks and operating systems. LLMs won’t have been trained on those and won’t have answers, people not asking each other online will generate no answers to train on.

Let’s read and train on docs, right? Yeah, right.

I’ve seen some very excited sponsor spots for them on YouTube. CDNs often make ads load faster than videos, so who knows what kind of innovations they could be financing. All of them perfectly privacy preserving, of course…

Thanks, I was confused about why the helix editor might need screen sharing. Haha.

I guess I’ll take another look in there. The instructions for turning off Copilot on stack overflow keep needing updates, so I wonder if I’ll even find the same settings you’d looked it.

I’m in a game of cat and mouse with Microsoft, but - like I said below - I don’t want to switch to a fork at work.

I’m using Helix at home, but I need to be able to collaborate with people with different priorities at work without starting with “it’s similar to Vim, but it’s built in Rust.” It’s important to me to be able to recommend extensions and everything.

Sure, it’s:

123 Mulberry '); DROP TABLE Deliveries;–

I love how the documentation is in the actual .h file and the read me is a mere formality.

I’m disappointed I didn’t get this as a floppy in the mail.

Isn’t that the point of languages like Snap?

A good reminder that composition is a useful concept.

I mean, if you want your prints to be asynchronous you’re looking for trouble to begin with.

The previous statement is a joke.

Ah, yes: weaponizing cybersecurity requirements to trick - I mean “motivate” - higher management to do things “right.”

My thought as well, but those stones were shaped to match each other, reducing the amount of grout needed. It just goes to show the old ways still work, but you have to commit.

This is a dangerous metaphor. Remove the old wall and it turns out the new beautiful wall was leaning against and supported by it.

I get what you mean, it’s just that the metaphor could support both perspectives.

Surely through an intermediate - real - language?

This would usually be more of a 3D thing. Think of setting up Face ID on an iPhone. Look straight ahead, look left, look right. A flat photo wouldn’t likely work.

We know kids can take parents’ cards, right? And that people can look younger than they are? Never mind privacy concerns, the best-case scenario doesn’t look good.

I hadn’t looked at this yet. Much much nicer.

I’ve said this before only to hear “we don’t have time to set that up and agree on a common style” and “that’s team B’s responsibility since we’re contributing to their code base.” Guess what kind of issue we kept wasting time on?

There are a couple of takeaways here. I think the main one is acknowledging that many technical problems are deeply human problems and the existence of a technical solution doesn’t mean we shouldn’t apply the human solution as well.

And here I was saying using git in the command line instead of a visual form might make me an elitist.

I’ve been living life on easy mode and not putting real care into my work.

Exactly! That’s how I feel.

I always end up using VS Code for projects like that, but I don’t love its Got integration, so that really makes sense. I might give this a try when it’s more widely available.
