Hamilton also coined the term "software engineering" and founded two successful software companies.

Computer programming is, fundamentally, about two things: Problem-solving using computers Learning to control complexity while solving these problems I have a hard time imagining a future where knowing how to solve problems with computers and how to control the complexity of those solutions is less valuable than it is today, so I think it will continue to be a viable career even with the advent of AI tools. — Carson Gross Tags: computer-science , carson-gross , careers , ai

Anti-Patterns in Software Blogging Some excellent writing advice from Michael Lynch. Michael warns against "meandering intros", misjudging your reader's existing knowledge, assuming they'll read your previous posts, and excessive formality. He also warns against overreliance on links as an excuse not to explain terminology. This one hurt! I do this all the time, but I have a nagging suspicion that almost nobody ever clicks on them. (In a Lobste.rs comment Michael clarifies that "My rule of thumb

I thought this was a very interesting article, of relevance to the readers here.

"We created this program because we believe the benefits of AI will reach most people through the companies that build on top of models, rather than through the models alone."

“There’s a perception of mobster behavior” from leading AI companies, one mathematician tells WIRED as OpenAI prepares to release more than 100 new solutions to unsolved problems.

I just published the results for this year's State of Devs developer survey, which covers topics such as career, health, worldview, and even hobbies. Some interesting stats: The most common emotions respondents cited when asked about their feelings towards the tech industry was "exhaustion", followed by "disillusionment". "Curiosity" came in third, and is strongly correlated with being pro-AI overall. Speaking of AI, 49% of respondents now generate over 75% of their code using AI. Despite that,

I recently discovered by accident that our website was being blocked by Orange's security filters. After a quick check, I found that our IP address is listed on UCEPROTECT Level 3. The listing is based on the reputation of the entire ASN 14061 (DigitalOcean, US) [1]. In other words, even if your IP did nothing wrong, it will still be listed because of its ASN. If your site is innocent and listed only because it's hosted on DigitalOcean, UCEPROTECT offers to whitelist it for about $30/month or $1

讨论为何开发者不更积极地使用浏览器原生平台能力，评论区认为平台功能不够好、不灵活，但也有人归因于框架依赖习惯。

评论区普遍认为平台原生功能不够好、难用且不灵活，但也有人认为开发者只是习惯依赖框架和库。

The CEO of Amazon Web Services tried to push back against widespread suspicion of data centers.

By his own admission, David Robinson is “something of a cliché”: an employee at a leading AI company who issues a dire warning while resigning from their job.

It feels like we are coming full circle to the times of the Silo Engineer, but on steroids. Back in the day when social media feeds were chronological (if they even existed), the Silo Engineer would retreat into his cubicle to Create (it was usually a he). He was Creating and Creating, and then a few weeks later the results came back. If you were lucky, you got what you asked for or something close to it. No one knew what the Silo Engineer was making, whether it was a sound solution from the arc

It’s been a long time since the last models came out. I notice they are selling GLM on the site, and I wonder if they are developing something, given the long silence.
