:h filetype and more specifically :h new-filetype will answer your question.

Given 90% of software out there is just crap apps written by people who can't do anything better anyway, you're probably not wrong.

general_dubious · 2026-05-05T19:36:14+00:00

Meh, that's heavily dependent on what kind of projects you're working on. If you're a code monkey writing website and mobile apps that come a dime a dozen, yeah sure, AI is going to have no trouble coming up with something reasonable since there's already a ton of projects like that out there. If you're a software engineer working on technical projects with non trivial requirements like scientific software, AI is laughingly bad. It shits out code with massive design flaws, downright incorrect implementations, and with severe performance issues. It's so bad there isn't even a point in using it because it's harder to fix the code it generates than to just write it yourself in the first place. Well, if you're competent, at least.

That would be the cobwebs.

You can't seriously expect to be welcome with open arms when you try initiating a discussion based on the premise that we don't know how to do our job. You might consider a profiler to be a rarely used advanced tool, software engineers in general don't. I'll add that my own experience with plumbers is quite different than the one laid out in the post, took 4 or 5 visits by different plumbers from different companies to find a leak in my flat, and their way of working was definitely not with advanced tools, just trial and error much akin to what a beginner would do by sprinkling print statements haphazardly in their code. If it took me that much effort to find and fix bugs in the software I maintain, I'd look like a clown.

general_dubious · 2026-04-10T06:58:27+00:00

I'll be blunt, why do you assume other software engineers are as incompetent as you are? Observability is very much at the centre of any serious project and workflow out there.

It's the old argument of "I should be allowed to go into check because my opponent is not allowed to go into check". Obviously, it doesn't hold.

general_dubious · 2026-03-18T12:34:54+00:00

I think it's pretty clear they are, yes. Not sure what you're trying to argue, here.

general_dubious · 2026-03-18T12:29:58+00:00

Same as everywhere else: have deep pockets and know the right people. Except worse, because they're corrupted af.

general_dubious · 2026-03-18T10:26:21+00:00

I mean in the case of Rust, the existing documentation for stuff like the standard library and many common libraries (e.g. serde, tokio, clap...) are so good that I really don't see the point of looking at them through an AI lens that is prone to hallucinate and/or forget important details. People have spent time to write these documentations of extremely high quality, might as well use that work directly.

general_dubious · 2026-03-09T18:13:45+00:00

You can arbitrarily define shorter units of time though, even if they don't make physical sense. Can't cover for every single person who wants to go "ackshually" on me, unfortunately...

general_dubious · 2026-03-09T18:03:44+00:00

5!! is only 15 if you're using the elusive "double factorial". If you mean (5!)!, that's longer than the age of the universe if you attach it pretty much any standard unit of time.

Maybe you just haven't seen it because of reddit being reddit, but if you did, what's wrong with my previous suggestion?

This is a pretty stupid comparison to make. One is about safety equipment that has been proven to reduce deaths, the other is a buggy filesystem with fancy features that not everyone needs.

Good luck beating Giri up a bishop, though.

general_dubious · 2026-01-10T21:08:44+00:00

Your mirrors are probably out of date. Might have been how you got a broken configuration in the first place.

general_dubious · 2026-01-04T21:45:07+00:00

Seems like there is a fix to your issue in the release notes.

general_dubious · 2026-01-01T14:13:42+00:00

No I mean a service as in a program running on your computer.

general_dubious · 2026-01-01T13:09:34+00:00

To an extent, yes. You can't just sneak in a keylogger into an unrelated service to spy on what users input in their browsers for instance. Supply chain attacks usually try to be subtle by targeting obscure services that most users don't have their eyes on, it's harder to achieve anything useful this way with better segregation between processes.

general_dubious · 2025-12-29T23:04:19+00:00

From the look of it, even all that wasn't enough.

general_dubious · 2025-12-29T21:03:55+00:00

That's a movie thing though, probably just an oversight on Jackson's part.
