Yes it looks like he does. And I don't see why not.
The fact that their products become deprecated, gives even more incentive to manufacturers to want long term contracts.
> If you do not care about the compatibility of your binary on older (or other types of) processors, you can tell the compiler to generate the newest (and potentially fastest) instructions specific to a certain CPU architecture, such as AVX SIMD instructions for x86-64 CPUs.
> To request these instructions from the command line, use the -C target-cpu=native flag
I asked Gemini to solve today's Countle puzzle (https://www.countle.org/).
It got stuck while iterating randomly trying to find a solution.
While I'm writing this it has been trying already for 5 minutes and the web page has become unresponsive.
I also asked it for the best play when in backgammon opponent rolls 6-1 (plays 13/7 8/7) and you roll 5-1.
It starts alright with mentioning a good move (13/8 6/5) but continues to hallucinate with several alternative but illegal moves.
I'm not too impressed.
If you read the article, you'll see that these are not individual points, but sequential stages that the author went through while learning what it really takes to be social.
So stage 1. was his first attempt, then he decided 2. worked better .. etc. until he finally reached the one that worked best, i.e. 6.
Same for me, the first 100 are doable, after that they take more and more time and require deeper mathematical knowledge. Which is nice as well, but at some point I started to wonder if it wouldn't be better if I spent all that time on learning some more practical knowledge.
To me it seems that there's a contradiction in what the author is trying to say. On the one hand he's saying that for new grads like him, the job situation is getting worse and worse, because of AI.
He's saying that AI, while taking over low skilled jobs, is growing and dominating the labor market.
But, the author's skill is exactly where the growth is: he's a AI graduate!
If author has trouble finding a job, the reason certainly couldn't be the lack of growth in AI automation jobs?

How is it common sense to try to re-implement Kafka in Posgres?
You probably need something similar but more simple. Then implement that! But if you really need something like Kafka, then .. use Kafka!
IMO the author is now making the same mistake as some Kafka evangelists that try to implement a database in Kafka.
I’m making the example of a pub sub system. I’m most familiar with Kafka so drew parallels to it. I didn’t actually implement everything Kafka offers - just two simple pub sub like queries.
Advent comes from the Latin word adventus, which means “arrival” or “coming.”
It refers to the coming of Christ. There is no 4 in the name, no 24, 25 or whatever else.
Yes I also think that bugs in a Rust replacement will receive more attention than other bugs. Why?
- the cult-like evangelism from the Rust community that everything written in Rust would be better
- the general notion, that rewriting tools should bring clear an tangible benefits. Rewriting something mostly because the new language is safer will provoke irritation and frustration with affected end-users when the end product turns out to introduce new issues
Somebody linked a comment from an Ubuntu maintainer where they said they want more resilient tools.
If license was the only concern then I'd think that they wouldn't switch the programming language?
And yeah, obviously using Rust will not eliminate all CVEs. It does eliminate buffer overflows and underflows though. Not a small thing.
Also I would not uncritically accept the code of the previous coreutils as good. It got the job done (and has memory safety problems here and there). But is it really good? We can't know for sure.
