PR and citizenship are different things, one is just to reduce the paperwork and allow some bare minimum benefits and the other is citizenship

The only reason to push language requirements for PR, is to make it harder to obtain it, its politically driven

Local LLMs is the only thing viable and probably the only thing it will remain once the hype dies down.

A smaller cheaper local model can delivery most the value for coding, while we still use some services for code review and security compliance.

Once the VC money runs out and they start to charge the real price, the C-level will have to impose budges or limits. The current pissing contest over who can expend the most tokens is both ridiculous and shortsighted

Get ready for the not reading, between people asking for AI and the slop everyone is writing Today communication will only get worst.

Talking to a 'yes and autocomplete' that will agree with everything you say and praise it as a "Great idea!" will make everything terrible

Sorry but this seems like vibe coded slop

You cant search or change language

Idk what is the goal here, but maybe some analysis with graph would be better, like who has the most territory or something like that? You also might need to disclosure how you got this data

Agreed! The problem is that some 'seniors' never cared to learn patterns in the first place. That’s a huge problem for frontend, where we have increasingly complex architectures and people with very little experience with design.

Even some principles aren't known. I always recommend the book Head First: Design Patterns. It's in Java, but the lessons can be applied in every language.

Unfortunately, we are in a 'post-knowledge' era... I don't know how we can keep things up at this pace.

Storage seems small to how crazy big some games have bee EDIT: Maybe it needs a combo ssd for system + hdd for storage

I have been thinking on dropping Windows, that I use only for gaming, but the issue is that I got a Nvidia graphics card and didn't have time to check if the support for it in Linux got better

But after experiencing the new Windows 11 "always-online" model it might make me stick to AMD in the future

Svgs, date management, Http, so many simpler things we dont have solve and somehow people believe they will do it by putting enough money in LLMs when it cant count

Why some people understood when they tried it with blockchain, nfts, web3, AR, ... any good engineer should know principle of energy efficiency instead of having faith in the Infinite monkey theorem

The useRef pattern seem like a code smell, maybe because I had some troubles with refs over the years.

Things were simpler when we had lifecycle methods to manage some of this things. But I`m sure that the next version of react will change everything and make us come up with more patters to try to fix the same problem again...

The thing I have seem in performance is people trying to shave ms loading a page, while they fetch several mbs and do complex operations in the FE, when in the reality writing a BFF, improving the architecture and leaner APIs would be a more productive solution.

We tried to do that with GraphQL, http2,... And arguably failed. Until we can properly evolve web standards we won't be able to fix the main issue. Novel frameworks won't do it either

The return to office fad was a big part of this effort, often largely motivated by reacting to the show of worker power in the racial justice activism efforts of 2020.

Not against this point, but I don't get it, maybe because I don't live in the US, but I see as another way to "soft-fire" people, as is this AI crazy What I'm missing?

People have the notion that tech workers are overpaid man-children that have to be babysat by their companies

The reality is, we're constantly dealing with increasingly tighter deadlines and unreasonable demands to deliver products that, even if they make it to market, are likely to be shut down within five years. We're basically glorified sandcastle builders

With AI, things have gotten even worse, people now believe everything is easy just because they can build a to-do app with a prompt
