Yeah it’s not a particularly obscure character in some languages, so it’s not really going to affect an LLM at all, it’ll already know what to do with them. Hell you could write in MSN era fancy text using characters incorrectly and I’d not be surprised if an LLM had no issue decoding it.
Heart’s kinda in the right place, but the only outcome is going to be confusion and frustration from humans.
Edit: was curious about the assertion I made about MSN text
Seemingly no trouble
#include <delusion>
Pretty reasonable take IMO
I can see how it can be a useful tool to get people into dev
You need to back that up with real learning though
If you can’t/don’t review and completely understand every line of code you submit to a project yourself, you should not be surprised if the project owner tells you to take a long walk towards the Mariana trench
Oh really? I could have sworn HA was a fair bit later than that
I think I used OpenHAB between about 2013 and 2018, then switched to HA around then after discovering it and reading about it for a couple of weeks.
Must have just had my head in the sand then!
I look forward to in 5 years time where my 2 factor Auth app finally adds an arbitrary DM function no one wants
Home assistant continues to be fantastic, I remember it was what felt like fairly recently that all we had was OpenHAB and although it was fine, it was a bit of an uphill struggle to do anything.
I think it’s mostly because these Devs were impacted by an actual mistake from valve recently, and then this happens during their apparent compensation for this.
Tbf though I agree this article is mostly about clicks. They say the emails went out and they sold 5k copies, so it’s not like the first time
I’ve been playing N64 games just fine on my MiSTer FPGA for like a year or so now.
I can even use my Retrode 2 to use a real cart if I want rather than my network share with a complete 1g1r set for the platform.
I know they’re a “it just works” solution, but I just don’t see the value in the Analogue stuff compared to MiSTer if you’re even remotely techy
You get hardware emulation of almost everything from before the dreamcast for about the same price as this single console
Unfortunately there’s a criminal in charge of the US
I wish this only cracked me up like it used to
And wasn’t followed by the dread these days that the country is half made up of morons like this
Cloudflare is increasingly a SPOF for the web
It’s hilariously probably at the point where it’s beneficial for them from a PR perspective to recommend alternatives to new customers now
Bubba is BLURGHPHF
I love a

“good morning, I’m about to destroy the backend” is exactly the energy I’d welcome from a colleague frankly.
I think the outage that followed as we fumbled to replace it would probably be cheaper than the ongoing maintenance after a few months
A fiver says OOP has never left their suburb
The software isn’t really the hard thing about these companies, the customer and provider UIs are nothing special and they achieve their scale using fairly industry standard event driven tools and cloud compute. They all talk a lot at industry conferences, so it’s no secret really.
Ensuring a restaurant will make the food for an order, ensuring a delivery person shows up to collect it, ensuring that food makes it to its destination in the same condition it left the restaurant, ensuring everyone gets paid at the end.
Preventing any of that from going wrong and handling it when it does is where the value of these companies lies.
Who is going to step in if a restaurant starts ignoring orders, or a driver starts eating the food, or a customer does a fraudulent chargeback?
Then there’s the money issue: where does the money go when people pay? Who owns the merchant bank account? Does every driver need a merchant bank account? How is tax accounting handled?
You can’t use cash for this system as both the driver and restaurant need to be paid (and TBF, whoever is paying for hosting the back end servers), and the driver won’t necessarily go back to that restaurant
Tarantino & Nolan already got shouts in the thread, so:
John Carpenter for some of the best practical effects in cinema history
You’ve also got the likes of Stanley Kubrick & David Lynch, of course
Talking of Davids, David Fincher feels like he has enough good to make the list
I feel like you could go on a great journey through 80s-00s cinema with films having either Bill Murray or Arnold Schwarzenegger in the cast
There’s probably a lot I’m forgetting
Now that’s good trolleyposting
