This is how we find out that crypto.randomUUID is not cryptographically secure

Yes, works on mine. At least it did when I used it a couple months ago. I prefer to use cash.

Macquarie is also good on graphene but no tap to pay

The abortion debate is not something we should be basing anything on, before you know it you’ll have to raise these little computers as your children and be charged with murder when they die

Releasing them is entirely inappropriate. Roaming cats kill 546 million native animals per year. Always kill.

At work, the software is not open source.

I would use it for contributions to open source projects but I do not pay for any AI subscriptions, and I can’t use my employee account for copilot enterprise for non-work projects.

Every week for the last year or so I have been testing various copilot models against customer reported software defects and it’s seriously at a point now where with a single prompt Gemini pro 2.5 is solving the entire defect with unit tests. Some need no changes in review and are good to go.

As an open source maintainer of a large project I have noticed a huge uptick in PRs which has created a larger review workload, I’m almost certain these are due to LLMs. Quality of a typical PR has not decreased since LLMs have become available and I am thus far very glad

If I were to speculate I’d guess the huge increase in context windows has made the tools viable, models like GPT5 are garbage on any sizable code bases

What’s a free open source black box?

Wild cats are driving our native animals to extinction

Usually they are shot here and they wonder off and eventually die of infection or injury some time later

These are successive generations of cats breeding in the wild with no human interaction. They cannot be rehomed realistically

You really have no idea, I’m working with these tools in industry and with test driven development and human review these are .performing better than human developers

Free access to the model is one thing but free access to compute for it is another

Are you going to spend your tokens on open source projects? Show us how generous you are.

I think it’s pretty hard for random members of the population to successfully decapitate animals. Not everyone is able to use a gun. Drowning is quick with no probability of failure or extended suffering.

Some models are getting so good they can patch user reported software defects following test driven development with minimal or no changes required in review. Specifically Claude Sonnet and Gemini

So the claims are at least legit in some cases

There’s a bit of a difference between domesticated street cats and feral wild cats…

Maybe the commenter can tell us

Feral cats kill an extreme amount of native wildlife here and are essentially the sole cause of extinction for many animals. You cannot rehome feral cats as pets and there’s basically nowhere to take them.

It’s pretty good in comparison with almost every other method. It’s pretty privileged to assume everyone can hire professionals for pest management and even then their methods are usually worse. What method would you be suggesting?

Indeed, drowning is a good method that doesn’t accidentally kill the wrong targets and is not causing prolonged suffering like many traps that latch onto the animal. What would you use to kill pests?
