Slippery slope ...

20+ years as software engineer. 10+ years in AAA-gaming industry. Avoiding gaming industry since 2019. Product oriented. Stops listening when someone talks about how to make a loop more efficient.
Yeah, I had a similar idea, I used Open AI API to break down movies into the 3 act structure, narrative, pacing, character arcs etc and then trying to find movies that are similar using PostgreSQL with pgvector. The idea was to have another way to find movies I would like to watch next based on more than "similar movies" in IMDb. Threw some hours at it, but I guess it is a system that needs a lot of data, a lot of tokens and enormous amount of tweaking to be useful. I love your idea! I agree with you on that we could use LLM:s for this kind of stuff that we as humans are quite bad at.
It is so tragic to see where the US is going in real time from an outside observer. So much for "freedom".
I would love to see this but it wont work on Linux + Chrome even if WebGPU is enabled.
Honest question: What problem(s) does this solve that not already existing solutions can?
Volvo Cars are still designed and built in Sweden, with swedish workers and engineers, with union agreements.
Totally agree. Sometimes I feel old when having the same opinion.
Who are they?
First, 10x devs are so pathetic to read about, but:
What I like with this article is the difference in how you approach a problem depending on how you are functioning as a human being. Of course it is nowhere near of the real world, but I think all of us can identify people we worked with who are really efficient on both of these "sides".
Whats up with the 6 percent layoffs on multiple companies? Did they all read the same memo?
Maybe, I have 20+ years of work experience as a software engineer and love functional programming, but nothing triggered my brain when seeing "FP" in the title, may of course saying more about me than the community. I just dont like when people use abbrevations as it is common knowledge, more junior peers may feel it is common knowledge, why not just being a bit more expressive?
Laughing out loud as a Software Engineer, since our projects always is on budget.
Using abbrevations for something that is not common knowledge is a way to shut out people from discussion IMO - change my mind.
This looks awesome, great example on how to use GPT-3 for fun and learning
According to status it is running normal, but it seems a lot of users, including myself who are paying users get the error "Thank you for participating in the GitHub Copilot Technical Preview. Your extended access has ended." - I get in both VS Code and JetBrains IDE:s
He is using the russian narrative, he is insinuates that the referrendums was legal and democratic and that a state that is under attack should surrender in order to calm things down. He blames the victim.
Elon Musk tweets, and pins it, that Ukraine should seek peace with Russia
DynAPI helped out back then
Every time I read about NetScape I start to have nightmares about stuff like
document.layers[0].document.layers[0].document.layers[0].document.write("Hello World")
Came later on (Netscape 4 I think, but I still get shivers from it)
Fantastic question. If our technology we have now is not able to guarantee that whatever is published today is available in 500 years, we must draw the conclusion that it is inferior of what we had 500 years ago that allowed writers to be read 500 years after their deaths.
jQuery solved (and solves) a lot of browser inconsistencies (fewer now than before) and I guess a lot of older codebases still rely on it, so I am glad to see it is still moving forward. However, jQuery has a built in problem in modern web development, as the DOM-functions that now makes it obsolete, as in it does not solve the more complex problem of state management and scoping of components. For some sprinkling on top of server side rendered web pages I guess it still has some value if you need to cater for older web browsers, but for those who build applications that handles state and components for the current setup of browsers it is not needed in your toolbox any more when bootstrapping new projects. However, it helped us getting to a point where we could rely on solid libraries and focus on building better user experiences. I am glad it still gets updated but will probably not write "jQuery-code" anymore in my professional life.
Read about them earlier today, they are getting ready for IPO. Can't help to think news like this has to do with building a better offer. The market likes these kind of news.
Backbone never got really popular here (Sweden). I still see some legacy apps running Angular but React took over from jQuery quite fast in 2015 or so. What I have noticed thouhg is that people who like MVC-frameworks tend to like using libraries similar to Vue and those who have more of an application approach to web apps tend to like React. Personally I think I got a bad first impression from Vue and have had a hard time trying to get to like it (I know it is popular). I think libraries such as Svelte and dev environments similar to Snowpack will gain traction the coming years. Focus on Developer Experience and doing the heavy lifting in the dev environment.
I have three as well (older though, so not the hardship I reckon you guys have now). The dynamic is awesome, but also crazy at times. You learn to turn on/off. If I would be turned on constantly and react to all the noise and yelling I would be mentally dead. You learn to snap on in an instant when shit gets real. 99 times out of 100 it is just small non-essential things though, but sometimes a sound or a lack of a sound makes you 100% focused. But most of the time you need to turn on the noice cancelling inside your head.
Ok, cool, I stopped reading because i felt confused
Why is it written in third person?
Not true. People are working from home when they can and are recommended to do so at least until 2021. People do practice social distancing. As in all countries some are better and some are worse at following recommendations.
When it comes to analyze why death rates are lower, I guess one thing to consider is that we have been social distancing, working from home and making fewer visits to doctors and had cancelled operations. If Sweden would have managed covid the way some people think we have managed covid (no measures) the death rate would probably been on an ATH for September.

I agree with you, no valid reason (even stupid) from a performance point of view to render on the client for such pages. Client-side rendering backed up by Server-side rendering could increase performance on _following_ navigation when the performance/payload-penalty has been taken on first page load.
I think this is really interesting. You hit the nail. A lot of the discussions nowadays on app stores is about having the cake and eat it. The app store providers are doomed if they do and doomed if they don't. What I hear is: "I like your platform for reach, but I would like to use my own policy"
