So funny to See sone Folks Talking about the tech Stack when Hosting is the only Problem to solve
javaunsafe2019··on What Does a Database for SSDs Look Like?
AI slop for sure
javaunsafe2019··on Avoid UUID Version 4 Primary Keys in Postgres
So We make things hard in the backend because of leaky abstractions? Doesn't make sense imo.
javaunsafe2019··on Leaving Intel
I mean I understand if someone like Keller writes such posts but some dude claiming to have hosted conference events and some kind of process flame graph which could have been done by anyone…
javaunsafe2019··on Ask HN: Quality of recent gens of Dell/Lenovo laptops worse than 10 years ago?
It’s a mess! Owner of a Lenovo t14s gen3 here. Standby works for a day then the battery is drained. My MacBook will be on standby for weeks without any issue. Lenovo and Microsoft pointing on each other on this one is a shame as it’s not going to be fixed.
javaunsafe2019··on Linux on the Fujitsu Lifebook U729
I also went this route but was disappointed by: - bad speakers - poor battery life - inferior screen quality

Nowadays where you can get a MacBook Air 16gb m2 for around 600€ this would be my pick if I’d have to find a new machine for travel and casual use.

javaunsafe2019··on OpenAI says over a million people talk to ChatGPT about suicide weekly
Is that you Mr Anderson?
javaunsafe2019··on GNU Midnight Commander
We all know it’s a clone of the Norton commander.
javaunsafe2019··on Do I not like Ruby anymore? (2024)
Fully agree. Had to work in the past with ruby. Loved it but type errors during runtime where a thing and therefore I would never use ruby in production again.

I use kotlin nowadays…

javaunsafe2019··on Kafka at the low end: how bad can it get?
Neither being German or old are bad values from my point of view. But you tried a bit hard to flex with your past experiences tbh...
javaunsafe2019··on Kafka at the low end: how bad can it get?
I don’t know why but I could wear you are German (and old)
javaunsafe2019··on DeepScaleR: Surpassing O1-Preview with a 1.5B Model by Scaling RL
Someone could read this as: as soon as I don't like the results I doubt the test...
javaunsafe2019··on Microsoft open sources PostgreSQL extensions
I also don't get it - it's super easy to write queries with it. Please elaborate...
javaunsafe2019··on Microsoft open sources PostgreSQL extensions to muscle in on NoSQL
Wait what? Writing mongo queries vs SQL is a pain in my experience…
javaunsafe2019··on Life lessons from the first half-century of my career
Sounds like you are thinking of yourselves highly as well. Early in my career as a tech lead I had some junior with your mindset in my team. Maybe my ideas weren’t perfect at that times but that junior sabotaged everything with I guess the mindset you described above. So my takeaways is nowadays to identify such non team players as early as possible and get them off the team asap.
javaunsafe2019··on Ask HN: Is ChatGPT down?
Firmware development… you don’t say :)

javaunsafe2019··on The 70% problem: Hard truths about AI-assisted coding
I already wrote on another thread already but do it again: copilot failed me for any serious task. Let it be refactoring of a bit more complex Java method or iac code. Everytime there are hidden quirks and failures that make it easier to just do it myself instead of searching for the needle for minutes…. This combined the fact that ai already hitting a wall in terms of scaling gives a good outlook what’s its predictive future seems to be: successful in the far future when we have quantum computing or the like…
javaunsafe2019··on Quake 3 Source Code Review: Network Model (2012)
What are you even asking?
javaunsafe2019··on Do Large Language Models learn world models or just surface statistics? (2023)
Idk from when even id this article? Got me LLMs currently are broke and the majority is already aware of this.

Copilot fails the cleanly refactor complex Java methods in a way that I’m better of writing that stuff by my own as I have to understand it anyways.

And the news that they don’t scale as predicted is too bad compared to how weak they currently perform…

javaunsafe2019··on ChatGPT Search
Star Trek is the vision of a better world we all need in so many aspects. It’s crazy nowadays, cause we seemed to got further away instead of closer to those visions. At least less people are hungry.
javaunsafe2019··on Google CEO says more than a quarter of the company's new code is created by AI
Since when is engineering boring? Stranges ideas and claims u made.

I’m an engineer who writes code since 20 years and it’s far away from trivial . Maybe to do web dev for a simple Webshop is. Elsewhere software has often times special requirements. Be them technical or domain wise both make the process complex and not simple IMHO

javaunsafe2019··on GitHub cuts AI deals with Google, Anthropic
I don’t know how people can claim such huge success using copilot and such. I also own a subscription and tried to use it for coding but all task from spring boot authentication configuration to aws policies and lambdas it failed horribly.

Writing the code myself using proper documentation was the only option.

I wonder if false information is written here in the comments section for certain reasons …

Hold your horses, saturated fat is still no good …
javaunsafe2019··on Show HN: I Wrote a Book on Java
Bought and read 32% of the available content and I’m disappointed. Yet another book that full of lingo bingo, a lot of text around a concept of what use more functional coding style with Java 17 features. Pretty sure there is some good information in there but it could be brought down to 3 or 4 slides instead of this extrapolation…
javaunsafe2019··on Stephen Fry – AI: A Means to an End or a Means to Our End?
I truly believe that someone writing such a comment is deeply unhappy with his life and can’t value humanity as it should be
javaunsafe2019··on OpenAI threatens to revoke o1 access for asking it about its chain of thought
In regards of super intelligent it’s still just a language model. It will never be really intelligent

Any sources on this ?
javaunsafe2019··on Understanding Intel
