China is not competing, it is distilling US models

China are cheating by using data obtained without permission to train their models in an evil commie way!

They should have done what the US did instead and trained models on data obtained without permission in a fair and freedum way!

Where are the Chinese models that are blowing US ones out of the water?

Kimi2 blows every US model out of the water in any comparison that includes both costs and performance.

Yes. The constant full screen color flashing made Windows 8 not just unpleasant to use, I was unable to use it since I literally got migraines after using it for too long.

Click on a pdf? The whole screen turns bright red for a second before loading. Click on a Word file, same but blue. It was hell to use for people sensitive to flashing lights.

I got special permission at work to stick with Windows 7 longer than the rest of the company for medical reasons.

I think another ace up Django's sleeve is that it has had a remarkable stable API for a long time with very few breaking changes, so almost all blogposts about Django that the LLM has gobbled up will still be mostly correct whether they are a year or a decade old.

I get remarkably good and correct LLM output for Django projects compared to what I get in project with more fast moving and frequently API breaking frameworks.

I relate completely. I usually solve it by sticking a post-it note on the screen so it covers my face in the call. It makes the calls feel a lot more natural and less awkward.

"Running a marathon is hard work, but a car will do it for you."

Sure, but then what's the point?

Probably, but I fail to see how that's relevant here. This is not a "dataclass heavy" library in any sense, they just used dataclass in the examples to make them shorter.

Based on everything I see in the documentation, you should be able to use Pydantic models as well, or standard python objects, or anything else, as long as it has a method `def htmy(self, context: Context) -> Component`.

You are right, it is from h2g2.

It's the planet Krikkit, which is a major part of Life, The Universe and Everything, the third book in the series.

They (or someone they hired) actually rewrote their whole app about a year ago, I remember seeing lots of people complaining about how much worse and buggier it got after the rewrite.

I have no idea if the back end was also replaced then or if the vulnerabilities were present in the previous version as well.

If a company opts out, do you guarantee that all information from their instance that you have already used for training is somehow completely removed from the "global models" you have used it to train?

If not, it's not really an opt-out, is it? The data remains compromised.

And then you have to wait a month and more and they log time on your project budget. Legal department takes that kind of stuff seriously and don't give off the cuff opinions. So now your project is severely delayed you are under budget and the only thing you got from it is that you maybe gets permission to use a new library.

Ooooor... you can just pick one of hundreds of options with a more commonly used licenses that have already been approved by them many years ago.

So their AI refused to actively contribute to increasing global warming, and people are calling this "woke" and say it's a bad thing? Some people just don't like any kinds of ethics and morals at all I guess. When I was young and watched Saturday morning cartoons, charterers with such beliefs were referred to as "evil", but I guess the preferred term nowadays is "anti-woke".

GDPR definitely applies to employees as well. It applies to all handling of personal data.

One of the most important rules in GDPR is the requirement for companies to have an up to date list of all places where personal data is being stored, the reason it's stored there and what it's used for and the retention policy.

So an employee creating their own lists of previous employees could potentially get the company in trouble if it was discovered during some external audit if it wasn't listed.

This sounds like it will be a great place for less ethical hacker to find product ideas to steal outright and beat the people who came up with them to the market.

Why would I as a developer post my ideas so openly on your page, just inviting competitors to copy me, before making an MVP? Sounds very high risk/mid reward to me.

Tidy First? 3 years ago

I was not aware of the changes in MISRA-2023, thanks for informing me!

Also, that's great news to hear in case I ever want to go back to the automotive industry. :)

Tidy First? 3 years ago

I think it's still required by by the MISRA-C standard, so if you write code for cars and some similar industries, you may get forcefully dragged into that church.

Georgism 3 years ago

No, they said it was Georgist. Not that the rules incorporated Georgism.

They didn't discontinue their Go plugin when they released GoLang, their Python plugin when they released PyCharm nor their Ruby plugin when they released RubyMine.
