  • Wasn't there an article that looked at and showed that no, there are no stock market specialists. An "experienced" stock trader was just as accurate in their predictions as regular Joe that's just guessing. In that sense LLM should be just as effective (if not more) at making profit.

  • Can anyone explain why do we need this rewrite? What I'm hearing is just that the language is memory safe and, honestly, it sounds like a weak argument. Unless the program is actively evolving or requires regular updates and it can be seen that a rewrite could genuinely improve things…

    All I've seen in these media posts were just vague "what if" arguments. If that's it, a rewrite seems pretty dumb.

  • Yes, a god is unnecessary. However, discussing religion and faith is inseparable from discussing God. Especially when we're discussing whether it is good, evil or even exist.

    My point is more that you cannot argue a god doesn't exist with logic and Occam's razor and whatnot when the other side of the discussion doesn't operate on logic alone. If you're arguing faith you have to reject it on the same basis, i. e. faith.

    My personal belief is that there is no god. Humanity made up religion as tool for control, morality, education, etc. I see no proof that god should exist and on the premise that it could exist (neither claim is provable) I reject it.

  • TL;DRI not so much claim God doesn't exist as I reject it. If God can only be "proven" by faith, then it equaly can be "disproven" the same way.

    That's why I have a different (although, in a very minor way) position.

    From experience I see that God would be at best indifferent to people. Given the choice to believe in such God I see no logical reason to do so.Either it exists and need to jump through hoops to get into heaven (especially if our concept of good is not the same) or it doesn't exist I loose nothing by not believing. I don't even want to go to heaven, I want to just live with my loved ones and then die. I hate the concept of eternal life, there is no part of me that would want it.

    Now looking at christian God I not so much as disprove its existence as reject it. If God can only be believed in then it cannot really be disproven, so the next step for me is just to reject the concept the same way I am required to accept it. If God's and my human moralities do not align, I do not need such God. Morality, by itself, does not require God or punishment to exist.Moreover, I don't want a God that requires belief for a reward. In no way I see it as fair and if God is not fair it's no god of mine.

  • I get a lot of ideas in the shower. Do any of you use any kind of waterproof note taking pad and pen so you can catch those ideas before they vanish in the steam?

    Jump

  • Never have I related to shower thoughts. For one it's too short to do any thinking in there. Also, I don't really want to think in the shower. If I'm relaxing it head empty in the stream of water.

    Same goes for singing in the shower, it was always a TV thing.

    My point is how many people actually do anything in the shower besides washing (mostly)?

  • Using Vim is Amazing

    Jump

  • Not really, someone suggested a plugin for that that I will try.

  • Using Vim is Amazing

    Jump

  • The thing is I need to know before hand that there's such capabilities. The editor has no way (besides docs) to surface stuff via usage. That makes the skill floor to productivity generate way too much friction.

    I love the mouse for navigation. If I'm jumping through references chances are I'm just reading and analyzing so I don't need to shift from mouse to keyboard in that scenario.

  • Using Vim is Amazing

    Jump

  • The main barrier for me is discoverablity of features. I don't know what I can and can't do in an IDE. That's where context menus shine, pair that with some documentation and settings exploration. Now we have a system to surface features and capabilities through natural usage.

  • Using Vim is Amazing

    Jump

  • Well, having vim in an IDE might be good way to get the hang of it. I do see the potential of vim, but skill floor is too high for comfort. I don't mind learning something, but I need to be productive out of the box.

  • Using Vim is Amazing

    Jump

  • I understand that they exist, the problem is they aren't naturally discoverable. With normal IDEs and context menus, I see keyboard shortcuts as I look for functionality. Neovim doesn't have that. Having to read docs or google for every little action I want to do is very unproductive and annoying. Features need to be discoverable through usage.

    Jump

  • I've seen it mentioned and it had already caught my interest. Main drawback I saw was lack of plugin support. It's healthy for an editor to support plugins.

    I'll probably try it, since I'm setting up another computer.

  • Apple forgot to disable production source maps on the App Store web app

    Jump

  • It was mentioned before. Source map is a comment with an URL. It's not pulled automatically unless the client has devtools and supports that. It doesn't meaningfully increase the size of the site for normal users.

    Jump

  • That's the thing, it's not actually a security measure. Security through obscurity is not security. It can provide false security impression that is more harmful in my opinion.

    Having source maps can encourage proper security practices. Which, in my books, very much outweighs any security benefits of hiding them.

  • So I keep trying vim and now neovim, I kind of like it as a good allrounder for one off syntax highlighted editing. It's just that for me, quick and simple editor.

    For a true IDE I need proper symbol navigation. What I have in my JetBrains setup: ctrl+click - go to definition, ctrl+shift+click - search for references, alt+ctrl+click - go to implementation, alt+ctrl+shift+click go to declaration (specific to going to an interface). Then there's symbol renaming and good multi carret / selection support with keyboard and mouse bindings (alt+up/down arrows, alt+single/double/tripple click). Also, multicarret copy pasting is a major feature.

    Let's not forget about live static analysis and autocomplete with support for fuzzy search and documentation.

    I don't even know where to start to make vim or neovim do all that. If it can't do that seamlessly and just as well, vimlike editors will never be a replacement for a proper IDE. It's fast, capable single file and small scope editor for me.

    I do also like all the alt and ctrl combinations with arrow keys to move lines, blocks and jump over words.

    Jump

  • Dunno, this "harder" argument while valid sounds just like false security. That's why I don't see much weight in it.

    As for bandwidth, source maps are not automatically pulled from server, so it also seems like a false issue to me.

    Jump

  • Omitting source maps doesn't prevent that.

  • Security through obscurity is not security. I see no reason why source maps should be unavailable.

  • How much are SOLID principles in OOP programming (and JVM languages specifically) just a mindless following of a set of ideas that aren't always the best solution?

    Jump

  • Yeah, this. Code for the problem you're solving now, think about the problems of the future.

    Knowing OOP principles and patterns is just a tool. If you're driving nails you're fine with a hammer, if you're cooking an egg I doubt a hammer is necessary.

  • Way too much

  • I usually rub the thing between my hands. You take a piece, press the sharp dry bottom bit on the table, and rub the clove with some pressure, letting it roll between the palms. It separates in seconds, but has to be somewhat dried, fresh ones have softer and more clingy skin.

  • Listen, I get that you're just trolling, so this is more directed to anyone that can be convinced by your comment.

    USSR saved no one. They took over other nations and killed a lot of people in the process. They ripped families apart and took them to their own concentration camps in Siberia. Most of these people were worked to death and died starving.

    Before WWII Soviet regime decided that Ukrainians don't deserve to exist and killed millions in Holodomor (Ukrainian famine).

    In history they we're never saviors, they were just another occupant and an unfortunate ally in WWII. What they brought to my country was repressions and deficits. I guess planned economy doesn't really work.

    The life my parents lived under Soviets was shit and it only improved after we regained independence.

    Hero washing USSR only serves as propaganda. They were not heroes, they were winners. It doesn't make them any better than the other side.
