Adding it to your git config will make the command git branch sort by last used branches instead of alphabetical. No more trying to remember what I called that last branch!
"'Our analysis shows that 52 percent of ChatGPT answers are incorrect and 77 percent are verbose,' the team's paper concluded. 'Nonetheless, ChatGPT answers are still preferred 39.34 percent of the time due to their comprehensiveness and well-articulated language style.' Among the set of preferred ChatGPT answers, 77 percent were wrong." -- #ThomasClaburn
I just heard the bad news that I am probably going to need a new job starting in July.
So, before beginning the regular search, I wanted to ask my Fedi friends if anyone could use a capable C++ programmer with lots of graphics and networking experience. I wouldn't mind a change, so I'm open to anything. Even other programming languages! It would be awesome if I could use Linux to do the work. 🐧
Locations I would consider are: Central Europe, Melbourne, Sydney or Remote
Beating neural approaches to sentence classification for out-of-domain datasets with ... nearest neighbour over gzip (finding the ratio between the compressed size of the documents combined vs. smallest compressed size of the inputs being compared).
This is both hilariously simple, and somewhat damning of how the other methods do in this context.
scratch, the 'language' for teachings kids the basics of #programming, has better first class support for async work than a bunch actual programming languages
Folks, if you parrot opinions like "PHP is an insecure language" or "PHP has inherent security flaws" in 2024, and you can't point to specific issues with modern, current versions of PHP to back it up, all you are doing is demonstrating your ignorance.
The fact is, modern #PHP is every bit as secure, solid and performant a server-side #programming platform as #Node, #Python, or many other popular languages.
My company has just announced that there will be a round of layoffs soon. They just laid off a bunch of C-levels. They're giving us the opportunity to "opt in" to "workforce reduction" with a promise of three months severance.
It's been pretty tumultuous here, lately, to be honest, and I'm considering it.
But, I've got a wife and four kids to take care of, and I've never willingly left a job when I didn't have another one already lined up. And we've got good benefits (healthcare and dental) right now, so I really don't want to give that up.
Maybe if I had something lined up with similar pay and benefits, I could do it.
So, I'm looking for any recommendations. I'm a #PHP developer (of roughly twenty years), who has been doing a lot of #golang for the past year, and I've gotten very proficient at that as well.
I'm looking for a US-based company, and a Principal/Staff/Senior Developer role.
Anybody have any good leads? My website is at https://danielrayjones.com, and I can be emailed at dan@danielrayjones.com.

Honestly, I had no idea DuckDuckGo had its own web browser lol. This article reminded me to try out DuckDuckGo's search engine again, and compare its search results with those of Google Search. I was actually surprised to find out that DuckDuckGo churned out way better search results. I'm definitely gonna use it instead of Google from now on.

One thing that’s funny about #ai and #programming is I keep hearing the same thing. “Oh I use it for generic snippets, just common tasks and functions”.
The amusing thing about that is when I first started working with a #php app years ago there was already a solution to that problem. It was called “the PHP Cookbook” published by O’Reilly. I was told “oh we buy you a PDF copy and you just search for whatever you are trying to do and use that code. It saves a ton of time for junior programmers.”
Not only was it true, it did save me a ton of time and headaches, but we didn’t need to steal anything. The authors got paid, it worked offline, it didn’t require scraping the entirety of human knowledge to write or nuclear power plants worth of energy to distribute.
It also helped me learn. Since I would have a solid foundation to the solution, I felt more confident experimenting. I always had a known-functioning standard library solution as my base. So when something broke I knew where to start debugging.
Just an incredible thought that instead of paying $20 for a pdf once we decided this was the way to go.
