Aww, I literally just implemented this using whisper.cpp and ffmpeg lib, code is even similar...

    consistently 1-shots entire tickets

Uhh no? First of that's a huge exaggeration even on human coders, second, I think for this to be true your project is probably a blog.

Same question people have with hinting, what makes Python cool is how loose it is... You could also make a lint rule for that and make fail CI if that rule failed, or... Write your own compiler you know?

Thanks I'll give it a shot! 0.85/month is CHEAP!

Oh man I actually use it to get a US phone number... What's a better alternative for this? I like skype cause you can request a new one every time you wanted.

You could build the same thing in Rust and have the same exact issue.

I have a toggle to enable it back when needed, I found this is way better, for me, to stay focused and make less errors.

But I do enable it, for example when I'm coding in a language or project I'm not used to, I'd say I use like 20% of my coding time, but that 20% is useful, it's when google doesn't work for me either...

I think this is a bad move... I immediately switched, 2000 completions for me (I have it disabled by default on Neovim) is enough, and 50 chats, more than enough I didn't even know they had chat like ChatGPT.

Sure... You just wanted to add your own clickbait because AI is popular, ironic huh?

We got around 3m with seven guys, so yeah, and we don't even have on-call rotation / schedule, even though emergencies do happen from time to time. They think 1:1000 ratio is too big as well? That's crazy.

New comment by igorguerrero in "OpenAI is good at unminifying code"

igorguerrero — Thu, 29 Aug 2024 15:13:24 +0000

This is something you don't need AI for, there are many decompilers out there already as well.

AI cannot even lint properly right now and you want it to decompile? good luck, there's too much hype going on people really think this is possible this year?

In the end always remember it's just autocomplete, it's pretty terrible at translations that are not natural language to natural language. I worked on a natural language to SQL and it was impossible to make it consistently generate valid SQL for Postgres, and I'm talking about natural language to SQL not virtual machine instructions...

We use it a work, didn't know you guys were fresh in the biz, our dev ops guy switched us to you guys, I had no problem, I love that it uses wireguard, our previous provider was a PITA :)

Yeah this makes it better, but I've found some sites that don't do that, blogs and news articles where it's impossible to find the date of published... Is it a SEO trick to make your content always relevant?

It's on NixOS and Arch I'm sure you just wait a little to get it on your Distro... I don't think they have bad intentions.

igorguerrero — Wed, 10 Jul 2024 17:33:09 +0000

I hope it gets packaged, on NixOS there's a package already on stable and unstable.

Someone from Rust talking about these tools being slow... That's rich.

New comment by igorguerrero in "Python Modern Practices"

igorguerrero — Tue, 02 Jul 2024 23:34:00 +0000

As far as I know you're right, also using pyproject.toml generates platform independent dependency trees (I don't have experience with the tools he mentions but that's what poetry does), requirements.txt does not and must be generated on a server or carefully picking the crossplatform version of the packages.

Also kinda weird he says to not use pip, but requirements.txt are pip commands... And should be running with pip... Hmm I don't know about this article anymore.
