Aider is integrated with git

When I was a teenager, tiny core saved me for a few months. My laptop had died and all I could use until I got a replacement was an old desktop computer we had around with 256MB of RAM. It was around the end of the windows 7 era, so even Xubuntu was struggling on such an old computer.

Tiny Core ran surprisingly well and I could actually use it to browse the web and use IRC.

Not only just one run per model, but no metrics other than total return. If you pick stocks at random you have a very high chance of beating the S&P 500, so you need a bit more than that to make a good benchmark.

And no control! What if you add 5 more traders that just pick randomly?

This resonates with me. Last week I got stuck on a bug where GitHub actions was pulling ARMv7 docker images when I specifically requested ARMv8. Absolutely impossible to reproduce locally either.

> Wages for your typical engineer stopped going up 5+ years ago

Not true for Western Europe. Getting more than 60k euros yearly as a software engineer was hard in 2019, it's now basically impossible to get less than that.

Having a data science degree doesn't really mean much by itself. There's a lot of graduates that come out of it with no marketable skills.

And no, coding is not the new poetry. I wish people would stop spamming this website with doomer nonsense like this.

I don't think so

Sorry to be the one breaking the news to you, but I don't think this site has been a "hacker forum" since at least a decade.

No, Google was 10x better than any competitor until they started actively sabotaging their search product in the past 5 years or so.

ChatGPT feels like an inferior product when compared to Claude or Qwen.

The Netherlands has its own semi supply chain, from photolithographs to chip design to printing the actual chips.

I don't think that's right. They make one of the many machines you need for semiconductor manufacturing. The NXP fab in Nijmegen makes simple components on a outdated 140nm+ process with 200mm wafers. Unless there is another fab that is making actual modern chips?

> They make one of the many machines you need for semiconductor manufacturing.

That's an especially obtuse way of minimizing the significance of their manufacture of the most complex machine ever made.

ST Microelectronics makes 18 nm chips and 6 out of their 7 fabs are in Europe: https://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/about/manufacturing-at-...
