We did this by using the ASTs you can go quite far without embeddings and the result is easier to debug and follow what's going on.

I implemented this for a large monorepo last year, it runs as an analysis during code review and it shows what are possible similar snippets wrt the code under review. It was a very nice project. It also allows to see across the repo what are the most common constructs for the different languages. This could also be helpful to see if some code has been copied e.g. from open source projects.

The kind of issues that you might face if you have dependants could be something along the lines: well Timmy, we'll need to cut your leg instead of trying solution x that might save it, because I preferred not to accept a job that would have allowed to pay for that, due to the fact such a job didn't follow my ethical standards.

This is of course a very extreme and hopefully rare case, but I think that there's a large range of cases where unfortunately money does make a difference I a significant way. Additionally, I think that it also does make a huge difference if you are the only one affected by you decisions or someone else is.

I think when going for a decision for such a position, these and other points that consider the more practical implications might weight in.

The salary gap in Europe is *huge*, at Meta and other big tech you can easily make 3x (after taxes) of what you'd earn in a European company for the very same position, same amount of actually worked hours. It might not be fair or might not be ethical, but in particular if you have dependants, such a gap *does* make a difference.

Someone high up said something along the lines that they want to see some progress and someone down below looking for a promotion pushed this. This has always been happening but I think before it was more difficult to justify something like this as one would have needed to show the results of an algorithm, now it's easier to convince someone higher up that AI will solve it no worries

Very surprised to see German there. Any way that I can learn more about this? Does anyone happen to have sources or links?

It would seem in this design that all the tools should be called through a wrapper that understands the vault and provides the credentials to the tool in the right way. How otherwise can curl use the credentials? Curl has no idea that there's a vault somewhere

What's crazy here is that a government I'd requiring de-regulation while companies are trying to keep stricter rules. What a time.

Subscribers should be aware what they are supporting. I think that keeping an OpenAI account can be considered an active support of this decision, at least for private people who can easily change providers.

I don't see how OpenAI employees who have signed the We Will Not Be Divided letter can continue their employment [...]

Sometimes money is more attractive than morality. So I guess money is the answer here.

I would have said that this is covered under vanity sizing. I have the feeling some consumers might be more inclined to buy a product if it has size M instead of XXL, even if the product is exactly the same. So my take is that, in the name of profit, companies lie about size.

bring it to your neighborhood tailor. Most alterations are simple and not very expensive.

I think, this is a misconception, some "simple" things like resizing a shirt, when done properly, might require multiple hours + a decent amount of skills and the alterations might be cheap because they are performed by underpaid workers. Nonetheless, I like the idea of supporting local tailors and I'd be in for paying premium for a local premium product.

I don't think you are wrong, I do want guardrails and personally try to ensure that there are those guardrails before driving. However, it seems that a lot of people cannot wait for them and just want to go out and drive, fast, even if everything points towards the fact that that's not a good idea. If someone really wants to touch the fire after everyone stated multiple times that they shouldn't do it, I guess it's ok to let them go fo it.

I dunno, tbh I'd be in the camp of putting a banner 'run this at your own risk' and then let it go wild. Some people are going to get burnt, probably quite bad, but I guess it's more effective to learn like that rather than reading stuff upfront and take necessary precautions and maybe these will be cautionary tales also for others.

Thanks to the reports, hopefully, with time, some additional security measures will also be added to the product.

I think that Google has some partnership with Deutsche Telekom where they provide the software and Deutsche Telekom Runs it because Google doesn't have the encryption keys. In that case Google even if they want they cannot provide the data. Anyway that is still not digital sovereignity as Google might decide to stop providing updates or add a backdoor...

Thanks!

What CPU are they using here?

At least in certain countries there are high taxes on cigarettes and alcohol probably also to cover such costs

If you kill someone when drunk driving you face more serious consequences than if you weren't drunk. There should be similar consequences here you get a disease you could have vaccinated for? You pay 4 times the amount for the cure.

Germany is incredibly under developed in the digitalization plus the amount of red tape to do even basic things is also very large as well. Getting rid of these things takes a lot of will power and at the moment there is very little.

Well from my experience on a Mac or in iOS you either adapt to their workflow or you leave the platform, I don't think there's a middle ground there. From my experience Linux is actually on the total opposite side, which might be even more confusing: it will allow you to create any workflow you want, if you are willing to sacrifice your sanity to get there. Btw Linux user here who already lost part of their mental health.

Any other operation will be written on paper in a step by step well phrased manner.

Same exact experience, I cannot get my parents to think about what they are doing, they just follow the steps; if an icon changes or if the button is in a different place the whole workflow stops until I help them. Any suggestions here on how to improve the approach?

Probably yes at least to a certain level. At the moment to many countries are relying too heavily on a single point of failure, there should be independent alternatives so that is possible to have more and better competition and in case the administration of the current single point of failure goes nuts it's possible to switch over to something else.

I had a couple of Pis that I wanted to use as a Media center, I always had some small issues that created a suboptimal experience. Went for a regular 2nd hand amd64 with a small form factor and never looked back, much better userspace support and for my use case a much smoother experience, no lags no memory swapping and if needed I can just buy a different memory bank or a different component. I have no plans to use a raspberry pi any time soon. I am not sure these days if they really still have a niche to fill and if yes how large this niche is.

Why cannot cloudlflare just apply a filter to the incoming requests and if the IP is belongs to am Italian AS they just drop it?

If I could I'd retire tomorrow, I have so many projects I would like to take on, I have the feeling I could fill 3 lives with them: gardening, learning math, system programming, wine tasting, carpentry, sport, traveling etc... There are *so* many interesting things to do and so little time. I guess time will tell but at the moment I have a hard time imagining myself getting bored.

In general the S-Bahn in Munich is a massive s*t show I can report more info about this if needed. However, in the S1 going to the airport (the train you took) it is quite well described that the train splits and it's both on German and in English.

IANAL, but it seems it's a technicality on how the conditions of the contract changed? IIUC they forcibly changed the contract without notice. If they would have sent a notice first and then let the consumers decide whether to get out or move on with the new contact and new conditions, it would have been fine to serve ads. The title seems like a clickbait.

The car was not really idle, it was driving and fast. It's more like it crashed into the garage and burned it. Btw iirc, even IRL a basic insurance policy does not cover the case where the car in the garage starts a fire and burns down your own house, you have to tick extra boxes to cover that.

How I can imagine it works: Amazon only provides the packaged software, the infra and the ops are officially driven by a 100% European company. AWS probably provides support, but they don't have the encryption keys not any access to the installation.
