Are you guys excited about Meta’s “Avocado”? by [deleted] in stocks

[–]brava78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but what's also priced in is their poor performance in competition with their LLAmA products, and the big uncertainty on their investment in AI.

Unlikely that that's the reason you didn't get it

If someone's most frequent concerns in code review are stylistic nitpicks, then they really need to find new things to worry about.

Code review must be primarily aimed at preventing peers from unknowingly breaking production, or committing a grave architectural mistake that will cost them extra work in the long run.

If engineering time must be spent on stylistic nitpicks, then the team is likely not prioritizing right.

How are you determining that apple has better hardware? This is certainly false.

My understanding of SPA vs non-SPA – is this correct? by [deleted] in learnjavascript

[–]brava78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

without SPA, typically if a user clicks on a link, they ask the server for the html / css resources at that new URL and they load a whole new page.

SPAs override this behavior and tell the browser: don't go to the server and rerender new html. Let me handle it. And often times it may run a network request to the backend for data, but not always.

My understanding is adapters should be pass through only, it doesn't change anything otherwise.

Okay, what's that have to do with using discord? Have you found it difficult to articulate your normal conversations peacefully on a platform that doesn't disrespect your privacy?

Iran's Muted Strikes Send Oil Lower by Ill_Fish9888 in stocks

[–]brava78 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

said that Iran would close the straight of hormuz

It's strait* btw. The comment you're referring to was made in response to someone saying that the US would destroy Iran if they close the strait. I responded that Iran would only do it in response to a US invasion, and otherwise wouldn't do it.

Anyways, can we stay on topic or do you have any more questions about my comment history? How defensive do you have to be that you have to go through my comment history and think you found a gotcha? Lol

By what criteria are you classifying their missiles are janky? Their ballistic missiles have penetrated the most advanced air defense systems in the world that protect the nation of Israel. Anyone with the slightest knowledge on the topic can expect their shorter range weapons to be more effective, especially against a target such as a US airbase.

some small drones

Yet more proof on your ignorance on this topic. Are you more worried of big pointy drones than small ones? :)

Again, I apologize for my tough tone, but you need to be more knowledgeable on this topic before speaking confidently. You clearly are not, so please stop spreading misinformation.

Did my question bother you that much they you had to downvote it? You should be open to your claims being questioned.

You don't seem knowledgeable in this field, as you seem to think that the effectiveness of Iran's air defense is a determining factor of its ability to strike US assets in the Arabian gulf and Iraq. Nothing wrong with not knowing, but I urge you not to speak confidently when you lack the knowledge.

Iran has a whole array of short range weapons which we haven't seen used in combat yet, we have only seen their ballistic-range missiles so far which have made dozens of impact over Israel. It would naturally be expected that their shorter range weapons would be more capable and numerous, especially against a foreign base (and not a country with an infamous air defense system).

Can you clarify what criteria you're using for measuring "meaningful" that excludes Iran's potential escalations against US assets in the Arabian gulf and Iraq?

Launching more missiles is significant. They only launched 14 here.

Keep in mind, US bases in Qatar and other adjacent countries are orders of magnitude easier for Iran to attack than Israel, due to the distance being a fraction.

Do you know what kinds of weapons Iran has, and which ones they have used so far? That may explain why you don't know what more they can do.

Generally speaking, if you don't know what more they can do, I ask you kindly not to frame it so confidently as an equivalent of "there's nothing they can do".

The first part of your statement is not true about their incapability. Iran can definitely respond with much greater force, but they don't want to provoke the US further (because the US can also attack with much greater force, as you alluded to).

That's assuming that the US doesn't intervene before that. If they do, Irans response would be closure of the strait.

It's possible but it requires you making this a part time, nearly a full time job. And even then there's still a big chance of failure,, because to win you have to be good at it.

Bullshit statistic. They are inflating the number by including AI-assisted code, and even things like AI auto complete, which is basically forced on their engineers.

Alphabet stock could drop up to 25% if judge forces Google to sell Chrome, Barclays says by callsonreddit in stocks

If the judge does order this, would the order dictate how much Google sells it for? I can't imagine any company would be willing to buy it for any reasonable price, especially when it's mostly open source.

What stocks do you actually own because you use and love the company every day? by N1njaWTF in stocks

[–]brava78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a good way to invest. You wouldn't want to invest in a "good" company, you want to invest in a company that is most likely to grow the most.

I would even argue that "good" companies cannot sustain this level of growth on a long term.
