Io sono anche convinto che, i vari social mainstream, facciano una parte dei propri profitti letteralmente rubando ai propri clienti (chi compra AD sulle loro piattaforme).
Non so per quale motivo, ma nessuno me lo togliera' mai dalla testa, dato che non sono soggetti ad alcun controllo.
Per quanto riguarda i social in se': io sarei tecnicamente un millennial, credo, dato che ho appena compiuto 40 anni, ma se mi cerchi, trovi su facebook un mio profilo che e' ancora li' solo perche' Facebook non me lo fa eliminare (non ho piu' un certo numero di telefono) non aggiornato da qualche secolo.
Non sono mai stato attratto, per qualche motivo, dalle interazioni digitali di quel genere, non mi interessavano e non ci trovo niente che valga la pena mantenere.
D'altronde non e' che neanche nel Fediverso passi troppissimo tempo, alla fine, pero' ha un appeal diverso, dato che e' il mio orticello e me lo curo come mi pare.

If you program, you should read this piece.
"Ada's successes — the aircraft that have not crashed, the railway signalling systems that have not failed, the missile guidance software that has not misguided — are invisible precisely because they are successes. The languages that failed visibly, in buffer overflows and null pointer exceptions and data races and security vulnerabilities, generated the discourse. [Ada did not]"

Non capisco, onestamente, la fissazione che la UE ha con i "campioni europei".
Da stupido in materia, le care e vecchie "joint ventures" o i "consorzi", come ad esempio quello che ha dato la luce al Panavia Tornado, non sarebbero una strada percorribile, per gli interessi dell'Europa?

La passera d’Italia è sempre più “solitaria”
La specie, tipica della Svizzera meridionale, è in calo leggero ma costante. Fra le cause, la perdita di siti di nidificazione e la riduzione delle fonti di cibo

@darth I have only BSD computers that I use as "daily drivers": A laptop and a tower, both running FreeBSD.
In addition I run NetBSD on every computer I own that can run it, from an old 486slc2 and am Am586 via a Nintendo Wii to a couple of dual Pentium Pro machines. All but the 486slc2 are equipped with full GUI and set up so I can do Real Work(TM) from them.
I have my laptop full of BSD stickers, Once - and there are witnesses - I was in an Irish pub here in Oslo, and one of the waitresses who had walked past our table a few times stopped, looked me in the eyes and asked "Are you running BSD on that thing or are you just bragging with those stickers?"
Turns out she used to be a network engineer in Cambridge.

Me:
- Went on vacation for 10 days.
- Got a tooth re-construction.
- While in the meantime, catching a common cold from my Daughter.
- With added bronchitis (sic!).
- And then, one day before leaving, my car's oil pump decided to take a break.
I'm here, today, trying to "work", coughing the shit out.
Happy Shitty Monday!

I haven't tried such a project myself, so I can't judge, of course.
If i get it right: you must push hard on the agent to generate code kind of like you want it but this pushes the cost way up?
How do you feel about reviewing the generated code? Is it doable after convincing the agent to create EAL5+ compliant code?
I have the feeling that in the end, given some level of expected quality, everything will balance out and the speed-up will disappear under other things. This doesn't remove the fact that, probably, what really matters is that the kind of effort changed on your side, making the experience better anyway.

My week starts with a request: "I need a server to deploy to production, but the devs have no idea how to do it. They don't know how to use the terminal, they don’t know how to handle certificates, nothing. They need to be able to click a few buttons and deploy directly to production. They're Vibe Coding experts."
