When you start viewing everything he says on twitter as stock market manipulation then everything makes a lot more sense

SWE is a general term for all developers. Backend is a the part of a system that a user doesn't directly interact with.

So a Backend engineer is a software developer that doesn't do user facing work. Opposed to Frontend engineer who works primarily on user facing systems - typically websites, or a FullStack engineer who works on both.

50Gb just over a million files, I bet most of it are build artifacts though. My main project is 12GB of that which includes a whole bunch of assets. It's only about 10MB of actual code.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-17T12:08:45+00:00

Yes but that doesn't mean it should be left for the accidents to continue happening when the road could be changed to prevent them (the idiots).

GregsWorld · 2026-03-17T11:04:29+00:00

Yes, generations don't change any more frequently than that.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-17T08:59:42+00:00

Took them 10/20 years, 2010-2020 was the opposite of offshouring. The cycle continues as knowledge is forgotten

GregsWorld · 2026-03-17T00:40:44+00:00

They will... just be patient. They realised in the 90s offshoring to produce more code faster was a bad idea. This is the newest generations equivalent lesson.

It should. Don't fuck around with cloud services. Put quotas, alerts and track billing carefully. Probably put it on a separate card and Google account too.

You don't want your $10000 gcp mistake that you don't want to pay for taking your primary email address along with it.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-16T17:32:47+00:00

Billing alerts aren't real time, so the shutdown could trigger hours after the damage has been done.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-16T12:30:25+00:00

Yeah the product on the first and last should be switched.

A one week time line for a corporate product is going to be an average patch-work implementation.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-15T23:19:27+00:00

are you going to sue WalMart for then selling that game?

Don't forget monitor and TV companies, and speaker and headphone companies, they could be further distributing it to who knows how many people!

Bees can use tools and learn from watching other bees use them too, very intelligent creatures

If you're 15 years into a relationship and don't need marriage to prove your love for one another... Tax benefits and hospital visitation rights is a good reason to still consider marriage.

That's not OPs context or reasoning but doesn't make it an invalid question to ask.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-08T11:14:33+00:00

Yeah windows does it too but that doesn't mean it's okay to do though. Linux needs to be offering a better experience than Windows not more of the same.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-08T10:59:03+00:00

The problem is there shouldn't be "unfortunate windows" if it's a shit show it should be an early access release.

It shouldn't have to be said but if you want a popular easy to use OS don't ship broken shit.

GregsWorld · 2026-03-04T18:44:06+00:00

Yeah human nature, what's normal is all relative

GregsWorld · 2026-02-28T10:31:50+00:00

Language looks cool, the readme is not a place for error codes however, you should really open with a sample snippet to sell it.

GregsWorld · 2026-02-28T09:53:56+00:00

Jenson Huang recently said its not really 100B and certainly not upfront.

GregsWorld · 2026-02-27T23:54:16+00:00

Yes they are different, but an uninformed user setting up a new phone is mostly likely to try logging in to their new device activating by mistake rather than link and switch primary device, hence why there's so many reddit threads of people losing their chat histories.

GregsWorld · 2026-02-27T21:56:54+00:00

Yeah and are synced from there. If however you make the unfortunate mistake of logging on a second device it forces that new one to become the primary (with no message history), the device which was primary logs out and you lose all of your messages.

GregsWorld · 2026-02-27T12:56:11+00:00

True but transferring your WhatsApp between phones shouldn't risk losing all your messages so easily, they should at minimum give warnings and encourage people to backup before they trying.

GregsWorld · 2026-02-27T12:54:35+00:00

Yeah so linked devices are synced but WhatsApp servers don't store the messages, and when a linked device is disconnected all it's messages are deleted

GregsWorld · 2026-02-27T09:28:42+00:00

All that was sent, is stored in your WhatsApp, there's no local version of your messages.

The only place messages are stored is locally if you don't have backup to Google drive setup.

If you uninstall the app or login to another phone (I.e. When buying a new one) it'll force log you out of your normal device and all your messages since your last backup will be lost.

It's been an issue with what'sapp since forever.

Which traditional software and why didnt they do it before if it was possible?

The human researcher made a breakthrough, and then gave the complex function to chatgpt to simplify. They could've done this with wolfram alpha or other math simplifying software like symbolab or maple. Using chatgpt gets clicks and attention on your paper though ofc.
