How is it "decompiling" if the programmer made it in Assembly?

@[email protected] said in Heroes & Villains of software development: You don't know how to do something in raw JavaScript. You're not even sure you should. You find a library / module / package / whatever-the-name-is-this-week on the Internet. You paste it into your code. Your code now works. Your code is now 1MB larger. This web app is heavy, man. npm install left-pad

As long as you call .collect() on it at the end, don't need to write the entire type as it is a method with a generic parameter, and returns that generic. The intermediate iterators though, those are hell. Especially if you pass it to a lambda and for some reason rust can't infer the type. I once came across a parsing library that did the parsing with basically just the type system. It was absolute hell to debug and build. Types of parsers would be hundreds of characters long. It would take tens of minutes to build a simple parser. I don't know much much time it would take to build a complex parser, since it was unable to. it reached the max type generic depth of the rust compiler, and would just refuse to compile. I believe it was called Chomsky or Chumsky or something like that. Discovering nom was a blessing.

This is probably a diffusion model. LLMs don't create images.

Where's the funny. If you don't fix an issue, it'll lead to more issues? Is that what it means? No AI slop please

I'm just perusing my old comments and came across this, 7 months later. This is an amazing article, thank you.

Nah we're past this. Now it's "The AI is reasoning"

When twitch plays Pokémon was going on my boss and I thought it would be funny to name all our projects after Pokémon That lasted about two weeks before it became very clear how bad of an idea that was. I still think it’s hilarious but lessons were learned.

We need to bring back system development! Not everything needs to be an electron app!

it is a sql query

You wouldn't know him, he lives on a different cache level

I understand! The more I look at the clip, the lees sure I am this is New Girl. I thought the guy was Max Greenfield but I'm not so sure anymore.

Here's the full video.

This reminds me of the brief stint I had as a Java web developer in the early 2000s. My boss, the VP of the company, told me to throw together an e-commerce site on my last day that everyone knew about. I stared blankly at him for a few seconds then shrugged and turned back around to the IRC chat I had open via SSH.

I like having a whereami alias for realpath, because I would forget the name of it.

You get used to it sooner than you'd think. There are libraries to convert between regex and English. Maybe it deserves a Unicode code block like APL?

I don't know. Russian military anno 1939 encrypted

yeah, but emacs still wins out in capabilities. https://xkcd.com/378/

GenAI image generation is OK at text for half a year now, hence thousands of sloppy/unimaginative comics in your feeds. Not sure this in particular is AI because the text is well-aligned and matches with the background, and in general everything is kind of coherent, but it possibly could be.
