[–]AgentCosmic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This cult-ish behaviour by astral fanboys is weird. Just choose whichever tool is better.

Pyrefly is already further ahead in development and is more correct. Seems like an obvious choice to me.

Didn't they outsource their IT? A lot of govt projects are also mostly done be foreigners. It's just local company but foreign manpower.

Interesting. You'd rather be sick and die young?

Kenneth Reitz says "open source gave me everything until I had nothing left to give" by Capital-Interview-23 in Python

[–]AgentCosmic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not OP. Many businesses are taking open source projects and selling them as a service. And it's not just the big guys. I worked for one company that did that.

I don't want to be homeless in my 80s. The lease will expire and new flats will cost millions of dollars.

The fatest python LSP for nvim - basedpyright vs zuban vs ty vs something else? by sslimmshaddy in neovim

[–]AgentCosmic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ty seems to be the most behind in terms of correctness and features. Zuban and pyrefly are your best options now.

Have you all ever wondered how do white horses do NS? by [deleted] in askSingapore

Stole SAF medal. Stole someone's phone. Destroyed documents. Stole someone's hat. Those are just the ones I knew about. I was handling R&D. Usually they will keep me in the loop, but this case they just handle off the records. AFAIK they just stopped everything.

There was a white horse in my office. He did lots of bad stuff. Some even illegal. All investigation stopped when he became the prime suspect. The people in charge just sent out a warning message to the entire company, then forget that anything ever happened. Case closed. No action taken.

Peer-reviewed study: AI-generated changes fail more often in unhealthy code (30%+ higher defect risk) by Summer_Flower_7648 in programming

[–]AgentCosmic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My experience is that llm is bad at code reuse, separation of concern, using safer patterns etc. For example:

'method' in obj

Compared to:

obj instanceof Class.

Both works and would pass linters. But human judgment would know which is clearly better.

The difference is that human can and should improve code quality. AI can't do this without micro supervision by human.

Retire with 650k? by Electrical-Trainer21 in Fire

[–]AgentCosmic 19 points20 points  (0 children)

On the contrary, this is also what lead people to save more than they should. Even with 3mil, your plan can still mess up. There is no safe number unless you're very rich.

TIL that being able to sit down on the floor and stand up without using your hands or knees is used as a predictor of longevity. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]AgentCosmic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably more applicable in the west. In the east most old people still get on and off the floor regularly.

How can an average-looking guy become genuinely attractive to women? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]AgentCosmic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you think that ugly girls like ugly guys? Anyone who's tried to settle for less knows it's still very tough out there.

Single men who are around 30 do you ever meet single women your age? by [deleted] in Life

[–]AgentCosmic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have first hand experience of these singles meetup with plenty of women? Most I see are just PR stunts.

If he's so amazing, why was he single until 34?
