The author says this knowledge can’t be extracted or transcribed, but isn’t that exactly what that senior engineer does after that hour has passed?

No. When we communicate, we’re not really communicating our knowledge or understanding, we’re communicating a crystallization of it in a form the listener might be able to learn from. The communication and the understanding are fundamentally different things. Like a map to the terrain. If they were the same, would we not be able to understand something purely by hearing it?

I think hosted would suit them best. It doesn’t even need to be decentralized, though I would rather avoid big tech.

Hmmm, it’s C++

Not sure if it’s clear, but I’m not doing the patching - my dependency is.

Updated post to make it clearer.

I’m writing a library, to be distributed, and the library I’m depending on - that patches - is also intended to be distributed.

In the next phase of the legal proceedings, due to begin on 4 May, the attorney general’s office will seek additional financial penalties and court-mandated changes to Meta’s platforms that “offer stronger protections for children”, said Torrez.

The design feature changes the state is seeking include “enacting effective age verification, removing predators from the platform, and protecting minors from encrypted communications that shield bad actors”.

Unclear how age verification would play out with their Digital Childhood Alliance efforts.

Intentional Kessler syndrome?

AI boom is a poor choice of words, even though it’s intentional. And I don’t believe the article’s starting paragraph

For more than three years, AI has propped up global trade and investment and pushed stock markets from the US to Asia to record highs.

However, there is a boom in investment in AI, whether that actually yields anything or not. I read the article as meaning derailing that.

The consequences outlined in the rest of the article look to be agnostic to productivity

If I’d bought when you said this, things would be a little different

You make a good point. I read it as “people who aren’t in thrall to the machine can take back control”. The vast majority of people have little say in this show.

As @Quazatron says, those that are in thrall don’t look particularly human.

To quote:

The real bubble is not stock valuations but the inflated ego of an industry that thinks it is just one more datacentre away from computational divinity.

It will run faster if your local machine is faster than the cloud, but otherwise it’s the same. I don’t think I tried starting CI from my machine, per se, I would instead point codeberg to my machine, push to codeberg, and codeberg would send the job to my local runner. You probably can do it entirely locally.

The main benefit for me was that I can run CUDA workflows without needing to pay extra for GPUs. I’ve not really thought about what happens if you want to deploy to an architecture you don’t own. I can’t recall what architectures they provide.

Note this is with woodpecker CI. I think they’re migrating to a new CI at some point.

I had a pleasant experience moving my project from github to codeberg. CI is nicer in codeberg because of local runners; easy to migrate too

the best git command

I feel we disagree on a number of fundamental things. We’re not going to get anywhere on a site like this

You mention lots of options. Given people are varied, and you want that in a company, how about letting the candidate decide how to prove themselves? It’s pretty established that it’s not “fair” to stick to a single style, so why hang on to that?

I meant judging people for feeling anxious, as opposed to judging aptitude.
