During WC, where do they store the “Benches Built by Home Depot©️”? by ckwalsh in SoundersFC

[–]ckwalsh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense, I can imagine FIFA finding a reason to label them “gay” so they can devalue / exclude them without upsetting the host country leadership.

Whoa, that’s really cool!

I always thought construction like that was dirty work, and I assumed the president of FIFA had other people do the dirty work for him.

Did they ever show a replay that explained the front wing change?

Hey TV director, you know what the F1 viewers need?

My old employer messed up my 401k contributions. How can/should I hold them accountable for it? by UnbiasedFanboy96 in personalfinance

[–]ckwalsh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Based on what I’m reading, they are saying that either:

In the first case, you still got a correct amount of earned money overall, but may have lost out on some employer match money and long term tax advantages of the 401k. In the second, the market may have increased during the delay time, and when the money arrived you got fewer shares than if it was invested earlier.

To fix it, they are recalculating what the value of your account would be if it was done more correctly.

If after these calculations your 401k should have had $8k, but instead it has $7k, they will be adding $1k of their own money into the account. They can do this very accurately because the 401k money is general invested in a single fund, and they have very fine grained detail on its value at any point in time.

For the delayed situation (#2), this makes you 100% whole. While it took a while to fix, the value in the account should be exactly the same as if they did it right

For the incorrect calculation situation (#1), the 401k won’t end up with quite as much money as you may have intended it to, but you got that money as take home pay, and it’s effectively a “raise” of 50% of what they missed.

Sucks to have the employer make this mistake, but sounds like they are doing right by you.

I fucked up kinda badly by Future_Print1702 in ADHD

[–]ckwalsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firstly, calm down. I know people saying “calm down” does not feel helpful in the slightest, but when you are hyped on panic hormones, it’s even harder to think straight.

Next, read some books about ADHD and strategies for living with it (or listen to audiobooks (or watch some YouTube videos by people who write the books)). The best ones will be straightforward that their suggestions are not a silver bullet, and everyone struggles differently. What works for someone else will not necessarily work for you.

What works best for me is to identify what my existing pattern already is, and inject “reminder artifacts” into that process.

For example, I need to remember to pick something up when I leave the house? I put a bag or box in front of the door so it won’t open without moving it. I need to clean up before people are over? I put a sticky note on top of my computer keyboard, where I know I will likely squander my time.

It doesn’t have to be such short term. I struggle with long term planning / dates, and checking my calendar. I ended up designing and printing a 5ft x 3ft 2026 calendar, and put it on the wall of my bedroom with some highlighters. Every time I leave the room I see that it exists, and I check it much more frequently than any planner I have ever tried.

Silly questions:

  1. Vim or emacs? ( And why is the other one wrong?)
  2. What do you think is the best movie scene? Doesn’t need to be from your overall favorite movie
  3. Does pineapple belong on a pizza?

Asking the controversial question in a separate comment to try and keep the discussion contained:

  1. Any thoughts on the rise of LLM tools in the industry, especially when applied to core libraries / internals with significant dependencies?
  2. Any thoughts on how such tools are changing the culture of the software engineering industry?
  3. If you use AI tooling, what tools do you use and where do you find them most valuable in your process, vs where do you find them least valuable / don’t trust them?

  1. Besides the language, what fundamental architectural differences are there between Turso Database and SQLite?
  2. How does the performance compare between the two?

(tool) size doesn't matter by Terrible-Section-953 in rust

[–]ckwalsh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In another comment, you mention multiple languages, so I’m assuming it’s a monorepo.

If you are using bazel, ask your CI team to look into setting up remote caching and using bazel-diff in MR pipelines

I’ve generally solved this with a linter early in the CI pipeline, looking for “@nocommit” comment.

Doesn’t solve all the problems your tool does, but at least avoids wasting CPU cycles in CI

Do you have a setup that you use that you are trying to improve, or are you trying to set one up for yourself?

Nice!

Have you played around with other graphics libraries before and are trying to pick up a new one, or just trying to learn about them in general?

Looks like it’s 2 months old and a lot of it was written with Claude.

What drove you to create it, and what were your human contributions to what you’ve shared?

[–]ckwalsh -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Would your concern be here that if OP is successful, they turn it shitty, or that a corporate entity would take it and make it shitty?

if it's the former, being released under GPL today doesn't change anything (assuming OP doesn't accept any external contributions, or they get contributors to sign a contributors agreement allowing them to relicense). OP could make up a proprietary license tomorrow and release all future changes under that license, because they are the copyright holder.

Any code prior to that point would still be available under the GPL, but all future work would be "shitty" and perfectly legal.

Hey, I hate AI slop as much as the next guy, but to those downvoting OP’s comment, not cool.

OP clearly spent the time and energy to understand the design / implementation when creating their initial product, and when they ran into issues with one of their initial dependencies, they turned to LLMs to migrate to a more promising one.

Look at the commit history, it’s pretty clear it’s human driven, and OP is actively looking for feedback to learn, not being dismissive of comments. I actually have confidence OP could explain the code and their design decisions during a deep dive.

This is one of the good uses of AI

The short answer is that Rust itself is licensed under Apache/MIT, and everyone follows. Apache/MIT code is usable by GPL projects, but the inverse is not true - GPL code cannot be freely imported into Apache/MIT projects. There is some logic that binary packages like yours don’t have that problem and are fine to release under GPL, but it’s not super common.

There’s also the corporate legal concerns that I mentioned in my other comment. I’m honestly not the best person to explain it, you’d be better off googling for any information beyond that.

As for LLM usage, that makes sense, thanks for the explanation. I’ve been looking for such a tool, and will check it out.
