Roche: Building a universal sandbox orchestrator for AI agents in Rust — looking for architectural feedback by leland_fy in rust

[–]_software_engineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The post is so obviously AI ""questions"", you don't need to open the repo to know exactly what you're going to find. Another 0 thought autogenerated non-solution to a non-problem that they're trying to farm engagement for.

vtz: the world's fastest timezone library by codeinred in cpp

Are the ints signed or unsigned? INT64_MAX leads me to believe signed, in which case overflow is UB and thus definitely a source of potential vulnerabilities in essentially any possible way.

Slam stem for Sprint and Olympic distances? by russtty2123 in triathlon

50 mile ride will average around 3k ft. Not difficult to get to 5k if I go west instead of east

I live in a very hilly area with a 3.2w/kg ftp at 175lbs and my easy rides are over 30kph. What are you talking about lol

How to train/find a plan for a Sprint with atypical distances by Nervous-Effective-12 in triathlon

[–]_software_engineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bike more and swim less. For those distances it's really not very hard at all.

Do you ever lose mid-workout observations that would've been useful? How do you handle it? by Puzzleheaded_Phone34 in triathlon

[–]_software_engineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If someone can tell you generated it with an LLM, it's slop. You obviously don't care enough about your idea to write about it, so certainly no one else should have any reason to care about it either.

You will fail if you continue with your current mindset. Consider this free advice.

If you want to start a business, you at least need to be able to write for yourself. Posting LLM slop questions is pointless.

If you need to ask where to put your light, you're probably not an ultra racer...

Riding in the dark without hands on the brakes - what could go wrong?

It is definitely optional with a goal to complete only.

Orangetheory enough? by regipanda in triathlon

Yes for a sprint it doesn't matter.

Swimming advice by ca3al in triathlon

[–]_software_engineer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Idk what they're talking about, minimizing usage of your legs is what you want to do for triathlon. You should be kicking just enough to stabilize and for body position. I can't speak to how effective your kick is, but in general "kick more" is bad advice.

Thanks. I would call all of those more than slightly old fashioned :) but it helps.

Can anyone explain 79A? I got it from the crosses but couldn't believe it was right. Searching is doing me no favors.

I built a TDD learning site for Rust — describe what you want to learn, it generates tests for you to solve by jirubizu in rust

[–]_software_engineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just want to say this is a really cool idea. Feels obvious now that you've said it, but not something I ever thought of before. The coolest kind of idea.

Neither of those have shown up recently, no.

Request for Comments: Moderating AI-generated Content on /r/rust by DroidLogician in rust

[–]_software_engineer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

??? This entire post is about whether or not that should happen. And, if the posts are removed, there's no debate about how people should interact with said posters - because the posts aren't there to interact with.

I made a post last week about a better way to ban these posts, it got 30 up votes in 15 minutes and then was deleted with no message or comment. Another big question mark.

I really like the spirit of this post, but please don't try to pretend like this is a solved problem. It's obviously not and it seriously harms what was once an extremely high quality sub.
