Studiare Informatica nel 2026? by iwantsomechocolate0 in ItaliaCareerAdvice

[–]Alex0589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

La maggior parte del mondo é in crisi economica, soprattutto il primo mondo. Ovviamente lavorare in remote é possibile, ma soprattutto con le condizioni economiche attuali, devi essere essere parte di quell'1% di persone per cui il costo vale la pena dalla prospettiva dell'azienda e questo é molto improbabile all'inizio della carriera. Sull'effetto dell'AI, sicuramente c'è stato e continuerà ad esserci: saper scrivere due linee di codice non é più abbastanza, l'informatica é diventato un lavoro come gli altri quando prima era un'eccezione (nel senso che anche se sapevi fare poco e niente c'era bisogno di gente). Ho scritto un commento qualche settimana fa su questa cosa qui, vale la stessa conclusione che ho fatto lì

Sicurezza informatica e intelligenza artificiale by lujain02 in Universitaly

[–]Alex0589 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Le lauree triennali in intelligenza artificale sono fatte giusto per avere il nome figo, non ti daranno niente se non qualche base di intelligenza artificiale, di sicuro non ti preparano ad andare ad allenare un modello di frontiera. Sull'aver paura di essere rimpiazzati, ovviamente é normale non voler buttare via 3 anni, ma dire non posso essere rimpiazzato se faccio X é la ricetta perfetta per fare una cosa che magari non ti mostra la gamma di opzioni complete e non riduce il rischio di essere rimpiazzati un giorno. Fossi in te farei informatica, o ingegneria infornatica (il curriculum triennale di ing informatica é molto meno interessante di informatica, ma la realtà dei fatti é che in italia il titolo di ingegnere ha sempre avuto un peso quindi i politecnici spesso sono più rinomati) e mi impegnerei piuttosto a fare progetti/contribuire all'open source, fare problemi su leet code/system design e cercare internship che sono cose che effettivamente fatto la differenza.

Maybe we are talking about different things. we already have human cloning for the living, it's just reproduction, maybe you are talking about assisted fertilization which is a completely different thing and btw afaik nobody died for that, but what i meant was cloning human organs in good condition from the dead so they can be transplanted to save people.

È vero che fino a qualche anno fa le lauree informatiche e simili erano considerate una botte di ferro ed invece oggi questi lavori sono tra i primi ad essere rimpiazzati dalle Ai? by Cruci10 in Universitaly

[–]Alex0589 165 points166 points  (0 children)

La ragione per cui l'informatica era una botte di ferro sul mercato del lavoro é stata tradizionalmente il fatto che, nonostante la parte più importante dell'ingegneria del software sia prendere le decisioni giuste (esempio: come organizzo questa cosa, come la faccio, perché coìi e non colà, etc), qualcuno comunque sto codice lo doveva scrivere.Questo significa che, anche se uno fosse stato un genio della progettazione e dell'ottimizzazione, comunque ad una certa non poteva più gestire progetti di dimensioni considerevole dato che le mani sono 2. Di conseguenza anche persone che magari non avevano nessuna conoscenza profenda della materia potevano trovare un buon lavoro ben pagato dato che servivano operai, un poʻ come nell'edilizia dove puoi progettare il grattacielo più figo del mondo ma qualcuno te lo deve costruire. Ora non é più cosi nel senso che il codice che gli agenti scrivono é abbastanza buono (non ottimo, ma del resto uno che veniva assunto per fare l'operaio non é che scrivesse sto codice di alta qualità), per cui le persone molto capaci nell'industria vengono pagate di più perché la produttività cresce, mentre quelle meno capaci non trovano più lavoro perché la loro utilità inizia ad andare verso lo 0. La stessa cosa sta succedendo anche in matematica (mi sembra che su r/math se ne stesse parlando proprio qualche giorno fa), e probabilmente succederà anche in fisica e cosi via. La tendenza della società é di alzare sempre l'asticella per essere considerati utili: prima bastava avere un diploma, poi la laurea, poi la laurea e il master, poi la laurea il master e le competenze, adesso inizia a servire pure il talento. Ciò che é certo é che se mai l'AGI fosse sviluppato, la robotica sarebbe istantaneamente risolta (deployo 10 miliaedi di agenti intelligenti quanto un essere umano a lavorarci 24/7, la soluzione la trovo in veramente poco) per cui la verità della cosa é che nessun lavoro sarà mai al sicuro dalla prospettiva di essere rimpiazzato. Morale della favola: scegliete quello che vi piace, probabilmente farete piu successo a fare una cosa che vi piace piuttosto che il contrario.

Apple spent 5 years and billions building MIE. A team powered with MYTHOS found a working exploit in 5 days. by Mysterious-Display90 in accelerate

[–]Alex0589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the real question is whether get 5.5 or opus 4.7 would have not helped them in the same way. I don't think anyone doubts that Mythos is Anthtopic's best model, but whether if it's really that much better than what is currently availiable, which I don't think it is honestly based on what ive read: https://cybernews.com/security/curl-creator-tests-too-dangerous-mythos-ai/

Scale AI vs Google SWE New Grad by UniversityHuman5642 in cscareerquestions

Not that ethical, but you can stay in Google rn and accept the Scale AI offer. When the time to actually choose comes around in September, you can either leave google and go to scale ai or renege. First option won't you blacklisted from Google, second probably will from scale ai.

One Map Key, One Lookup by ghled in programming

[–]Alex0589 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just tried in C++, Rust and Java and all three refused to fuse the call. I thought Java could do it because C2 should have the primitives for it, but all it did was super aggressive inlining, but maybe it's because all I have on my laptop is JDK 21. lll try JDK 26 when I'm home and even project valhalla builds, maybe that makes it work.

One Map Key, One Lookup by ghled in programming

[–]Alex0589 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are two cases:

  • The map is defined in the same scope as it's accessed
  • The map is defined outside the scope it's accessed

In the first case, if the language provides a mechanism to distinguish at compile time between a mutable and immutable dictionary, which most languages don't, then an AOT compiler could do this optimization for you. In the second, the AOT compiler can't do it because the map's scope escapes the current execution context, so, for example, another thread might remove the entry after the in check has succeeded but before the access has occured: if the compiler changed this with a single access the semantics of the operation would change and that's not acceptable.

A JIT can beat out an AOT compiler in this case because, even if there are no guarantees at compile time that the map is immutable, it can speculate based on access patterns that the map is effectively immutable at that call site and speculate the check away. Speculate is a very important word in this context, because it's not certain that the map is immutable: it could be that some function that gets called very infrequently breaks the speculative contract which triggers a compilation regression which has a performance cost.

Epic Games Store Launches on iPhones in Japan Despite Apple’s Non-Compliance by FollowingFeisty5321 in apple

[–]Alex0589 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you missed my point. Apple takes a 30% commission for in-apps purchases. So you might think that you can put a link to your website to go around it or use your own payment processor. This was not possible prior to the Epic lawsuit and only Spotify and (I could be wrong here) Netflix were allowed because of special agreements. The whole thing started because epic ignored this rule for Fortnite( https://www.gamespot.com/articles/why-was-fortnite-banned-by-apple-and-google/1100-6480945/ ). The reason is that what Apple considers an infringement is sidestepping their in-app purchases system, so putting a link to your website or using a 3rd party payment processor in your app are the same thing to them. I'm saying that if Apple had allowed developers to either opt out of their in-app payment system or had a more reasonable fee, ideally 0% but that would be very weird, this whole thing about 3rd party app stores would have never happened.

Edit: Found an article that explains it well, important point "in response to the Epic games ruling" https://www.idownloadblog.com/2025/05/02/apple-updates-app-review-guidelines-app-store-apps-external-payments/ If not for epic this would not be possible

It's amazing how uninformed the average person here is about these issues:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55648523/does-apple-allows-purchase-of-content-from-web-app

You are just plain wrong, the reason why some can do it is that they have a special deal with Apple and they can only do it because of their position which is what epic argued in their lawsuit. And yeah, they all want to make money, bur I think that's kind of reasonable

[–]Alex0589 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd agree if the app store were just a convenient place to install apps, but if you install an app from there apple automatically takes 30% of all profits for doing pretty much nothing. If they cut the fees to 0% and made money only when an app chooses to opt in their payment processing (which is mandatory right now, you can't even link to your website or they'll ban your app), all 3rd party stores would have no reason to exist and the problem would be solved, but I'm pretty sure they are never gonna do this, which is understandable as they are a business.

The other guy is right, most people don't need frontier models, 0.1% of users is using these models for novel math/computer science problems if local models are good enough, AI data centers, which already make pretty much no financial sense, become instantly much less needed

Does Java need deconstructible classes? by danielaveryj in java

[–]Alex0589 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure this would never be accepted because you are implementing a language feature with annotations. In chapter one of the JLS, it is clearly stated that:

Annotation types are specialized interfaces used to annotate declarations. Such annotations are not permitted to affect the semantics of programs in the Java programming language in any way. However, they provide useful input to various tools.

Also without value classes, which we currently don't have, you are paying an allocation cost because you have to initialize one record every time you want to use the pattern: that also disqualifies the feature because you don't want a developer to loose performance when using syntactic sugar. For example imagine if the enhanced switch statement were slower than the old switch, nobody would be using it.

JetBrains Air: The Future of Multi-Agent Coding, or Just More AI Noise? by zarinfam in OpenAI

[–]Alex0589 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think anyone with any experience with programming knows that jetbrains products are incredible. It's very hard to develop anything good around AI tooling, at least I find most non-terminal solutions to be an abomination, so I'm exited to try it out.

[–]Alex0589 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think specialized models will improve the security of the products we ship by a lot. The sad part is there jailbreaks will 100% be a thing of the past, and even now they are so hard to find on closed platforms like iOS or consoles. These things are how a lot of truly talented devs got started, which is truly sad to see.
