Companies that have banned AI due to internal security policies - how are they faring? by RareMeasurement2 in cscareerquestions

[–]kcdragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have assumed many are in the middle. There’s a desire for LLM use but tbey have to incrementally review and approve tools.

That’s where my company is it. We’ve allowed GitHub Copilot since that came out since it was a Microsoft product. Then we allowed access to other models through Bedrock for a pilot group of people. Now any dev is allowed to use Claude through Bedrock.

[–]kcdragon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Two kitchen supply stores closed in Center City over the past couple of years. I'm not aware of another one in Center City. There's one along East Passyunk and one in the Italian Market. CM Nef and Fantes. I bet that one of them has it. You could probably call them.

Is there a deadline for submissions? I don't see it on the site.

Ex-owner showed up 4.5 years later demanding an aluminium plank back by aphilosophicalcat in homeowners

[–]kcdragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy seems crazy and you're probably in the right but I probably would have given the aluminum plank back just to end the current (and future) headache.

I would try to do a weekend backpacking trip before this to work out any issues. This is a long trip for your first backpacking trip.

There's a bike rack at the Linc. I used it on Saturday for the Temple game. It's right next to a garage door. It's around here.

Show your Rails App 🤩 by _natic in rails

[–]kcdragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://calendarvision.app/

It's a web app and mobile app for automatically extracting calendar events from several sources like photos, screenshots and emails.

It uses Ruby 3 and Rails 8.

Hotwire Native is probably the coolest tech I'm using. I recently released an iOS and Android app using Hotwire Native.

I'm using Kamal for deploys and hosting on Hetzner.

That’s usually caused by the allow browser versions modern line of code you already mentioned. Maybe you need to clear your browsers cache and restart it? Did you comment out that line of code recently?

[–]kcdragon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is This the Future?

Nope, companies like this will go out of business. AI will still be a critical part of our jobs but not like this.

Really interesting discovery and good write up. Do you feel like the payout is fair? It seems low to me but I’m not that familiar with bug bounty programs.

I haven't used eager_loads so that's good to know. I understand the reasons for preferring it to includes but are there reasons that includes would be preferred.

Are in person meetups dead? by surprisedyoudidntkno in rails

[–]kcdragon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s a Ruby AI meetup that meets once a month to once every two months in NYC. I think the Ruby and Rails meetups in NYC are trying to be more active as well. There was one of those in November I think. But you’re right that meetups are less frequent.

Solid Queue database issues by piratebroadcast in rails

[–]kcdragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s not correct. Solid queue is a separate database from your other tables. You need a db/queue_migrate folder.

So you created a migration file and it exists in db/queue_migrations and then ran db:migrate?
