Knocking is usually reads (from the header seeking), brrr is heavy writes.
lemmyng@lemmy.cato Programming@programming.dev•If AI is so good at coding - where are the open source contributions?English0·1 month agoCounter-argument: If AI code was good, the owners would create official accounts to create contributions to open source, because they would be openly demonstrating how well it does. Instead all we have is Microsoft employees being forced to use and fight with Copilot on GitHub, publicly demonstrating how terrible AI is at writing code unsupervised.
Obligatory “/laughs in alpine” response.

lemmyng@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Everyone Is Cheating Their Way Through CollegeEnglish54·2 months agoDo you know the main function of freshmen courses? It’s to make sure that every student has the same base knowledge before going into sophomore level courses. It’s giving the students from shitty high school backgrounds an opportunity to catch up with those from private schooling and those from school boards that didn’t provide sufficient challenges. These courses don’t need a higher teacher to student ratio, they just need students to pay attention to the lectures and talk to the TA if they’re stuck.
lemmyng@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Everyone Is Cheating Their Way Through CollegeEnglish133·2 months agoI don’t know how you extrapolate “no emphasis on learning” from “large classes”. The classes are large because they can afford to be large. They teach introductory courses, and their goal is to even out the baseline before the students go into sophomore courses. Freshmen come from many different education systems - private vs public, local vs out of state/province/country, fresh out of school vs returning to education after working, etc. This is also why these courses can be graded with standardized testing, because they set the standard themselves.

a condition shaped less by genetics and more by prolonged exposure to toxicants like air pollution, industrial solvents and, above all, pesticides.
Identification of Parkinson’s disease coincides with the industrial revolution, so the claim is still plausible.

You’re missing the forest for the tree here.
Given identical client setups, two clones of a git repo are identical. That’s duplication, and it’s an intentional feature to allow concurrent development.
A CDN works by replicating content in various locations. Anycast is then used to deliver the content from any one of those locations, which couldn’t be done reliably without content duplication.
Blockchains work by checking new blocks against previous blocks. In order to fully guarantee the validity of a block you need to guarantee every block, going back to the beginning of the chain. This is why each root node on a chain needs a full local copy of it. Duplication.
My point is that we have a lot of processes that rely on full or partial duplication of data, for several purposes: concurrency, faster content delivery, verification, etc. Duplicated data is a feature, not a bug.
I would argue that duplication of content is a feature, not a bug. It adds resilience, and is explicitly built into systems like CDNs, git, and blockchain (yes I know, blockchains suck at being useful, but nevertheless the point is that duplication of data is intentional and serves a purpose).

The most likely explanation for requesting a video is to weed out low quality AI-generated “vulnerability” submissions that hallucinate code that doesn’t compile or APIs that don’t exist. In that context a 1 minute video showing that the report is viable is not much to ask for.
The prompt says “can boot”, not “is usable with”. If it gets to the kernel and then hangs that still counts.
