  • EU’s Russiagate hits German far right

    Jump

  • They could learn a bit from the Austrian far-right. They simply weren’t investigated due to a technicality, and then successfully sued a bunch of people who claimed that they had received money from Russia, because those people couldn’t prove anything without the investigation.

  • Russian military ‘almost completely reconstituted,’ US official says

  • The breadbasket of Eastern Europe.

  • acceptable screws

    Jump

  • I've seen them used in power supplies that are not supposed to be user-servicable.

  • but will also work with a Phillips screwdriver

    Only if you hate the screw and never want to see it in its full glory again.

  • Israel’s Brutality Is Increasing—and So Is Its Denialism

    Jump

  • I don’t want to know what it does to a society when casually sniping 4 year olds is completely ok and accepted. After Gaza is razed, all of these soldiers will return as heroes, but will they be able to stop their habits?

  • What You Should Know About “Toddler Milk” and How It’s Marketed to Parents

    Jump

  • It's pretty amazing how this works in the US. As long as it's labeled as a supplement, companies can put literal rat poison into their products and it's legal.

    Additionally, it appears that many people aren't even aware of that.

    Jump

  • Nope, that's not the idea behind that approach. This is just about industry profits.

  • People can just choose not to buy food that’s mislabeled. Isn’t that how it works in the US?

  • The slow death of Twitter is measured in disasters like the Baltimore bridge collapse

    Jump

  • Hey since you’re here, there’s something I was wondering about that these articles don’t go over: what happens now while the bridge is rebuilt? Is there another one nearby that traffic is redirected to, or is there a ferry service now?

  • US pushes alternatives to Rafah invasion in Hamas war talks with Israel

    Jump

  • Biden has already pledged full unconditional support to Israel, I don’t know why they’re even talking. Israel can (and probably will) just ignore the advise and go in for the kill.

  • AI bots hallucinate software packages and devs download them

    Jump

  • It’s a matter of learning how to prompt it properly. It’s not a human and thus needs a different kind of instructions.

  • Person is diagnosed with bird flu after being in contact with cows in Texas

    Jump

  • The pangolin transmission is still just a theory based on the fact that you’d have to eat way too much bat to infect yourself based on that.

    The only certainty is that it was once transmitted by bats.

  • Texas secession when?

  • Gaza: Shifa Medical Complex witnesses one of the largest massacres in Palestinian history

    Jump

  • Not sure to whom this is shocking. Wiping out an area to resettle it later on necessitates actions like this.

  • AI bots hallucinate software packages and devs download them

    Jump

  • Sometimes those things are way more complex, for example when it's about matching over a string rather than an enum to convert it into an enum. Typing out a regex would take me maybe 10mins or more, and with the LLM I can just describe roughly what I want (since it knows the language, I don't have to explain it in detail, just something like "make this into a switch statement" is sufficient usually).

    10mins at a time really adds up over a full work day.

  • In my experience with Codeium, it sometimes works ok for three or four lines of code at once. I've actually had a few surprises where it nailed what I was going for where I didn't expect it. But most of the time, it's just duplicating code from elsewhere in the same file, which usually doesn't make sense.

    It's also pretty good for stuff where I'd usually build some exotic regex to search/replace (or do it manually, because it'd take longer to come up with the expression), like transforming an enum into a switch construct for its members, or mapping said enum to a string of the member's name.

    This is very far from taking over my job, though. I'd love to be more of a conductor than the guy playing all instruments in the orchestra at once.

  • Software Vendors Dump Open Source, Go For the Cash Grab

    Jump

  • The problem is that other companies can offer support as well, and they can do it for cheaper because they don’t have to finance development with that.

  • Russia criticised for using veto to end UN monitoring of North Korea sanctions

    Jump

  • They’d be very stupid to not veto an investigation into themselves.

  • Backdoor found in widely used Linux utility breaks encrypted SSH connections

    Jump

  • I’ve watched a rundown of what the backdoor does. It’s impossible that this was an accident. It hides a compiled library in test data and injects that into the ssh binary to override code there.
