Patches for two high-severity ZIP parsing flaws have quietly been available since July.
If you updated at some point since July 5th you already have the update.
an Android Linux translation layer called Android Translation Layer (we never said developers were good at naming)
wth is that jab?
I like descriptive names on products.
Should they have called it koalupetta?
Good to see an alternative to Anubis - with a reduced or configurable legitimate user impact
https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-away/
This tool started as a way to replace Anubis as it was not found as featureful as desired, and the impact was too high.
go-away may not be as straight to configure as Anubis but this was chosen to reduce impact on legitimate users, and offers many more options to dynamically target new waves.
Lenard Flören, a Germany-based art director at an advertising agency, said he quickly realized that trying to create his dream fitness app with one lengthy prompt would lead to a plethora of bugs that “neither ChatGPT nor my clueless self had any chance of solving.”
If everyone can create programs, and everyone fails, maybe it'll bring increased appreciation to development and good development and products? One could hope. I guess the worst offenders won't even try themselves either way. The services are not that accessible.
I'd love to read a list of those instances/claims/tech
I imagine one of them was low-code/no-code?
/edit: I see such a list is what the posted link is about.
I'm surprised there's not low-code/no-code in that list.
I still hate the "vibe" terminology.
What I would have liked it to mean: While coding, put on some music, and zone out to coding.
What it means now: Prompt an AI to generate working code and solutions.
I don't get where the "vibing" comes in. I guess you don't have to think about the technical details? And that's vibing? Maybe it's just unfamiliarity and lack of practice, but poking the AI via prompting and thinking about how you can influence it better doesn't feel like you could zone in to or "vibe".
Maybe it's about letting go of reasoning and just going for it? Vibing in the sense of going with the flow?
It's not the first terminology I find unfitting. I'm trying to accept that it is what it is, and that it just is what "we collectively" have decided to call it (or ran with).
Don't use the share with shortened url. Copy the page url instead.
Otherwise (you'll have to) accept that you don't know what's included in the shortened link.
One table of percent increase/decrease written into SEVEN worded paragraphs. That's how you add bloat and reduce overview and comparability.
The percent numbers aren't telling. They don't explain the methodology of how interest has been measured. Which could have added value to just writing out the numbers. The huge numbers of multiple hundred percent indicate to me that they're worthless numbers.
The title is bullshit too. They say interest in C and C# was up, contradicting their claim that traditional programming language interest is declining. Clickbait non-content.
The note on Googles CEO claiming 25% of their internal code is now AI generated was surprising and interesting to me. I don't know if I find it surprising, shocking, or implausible (suspecting the CEO misunderstands or misattributes what is happening; sourcing is not applied code).

The only issue they mention is browser page text search not working on rendered file view (blame).
The feels legacy conclusion doesn't make any sense to me.
GitHub is not the only platform implementing virtual scrolling, partial rendering of rendered files. There's a reason they do that: Files can get big, and adding various code highlighting and interactivity costs performance. It's not a local code representation and rendered canvas. It's rendered into a DOM and DOM representation, with markup and attached logic. Which at some point quickly becomes very inefficient or costly.
Not being able to use the browser text search is an unfortunate side effect.
I consider it a worsening modernization/feature addition. That's the opposite of legacy. We're moving forward (in a bad way), not stagnating.
When I click Blame, and then press Ctrl+F, it opens not my browser text search but the in-page in-file search. It works for me. (Not that I always use that search or like it.)
Driving a train is engineering?
… which arguably makes them not "normal people" (referring to the earlier comment).
Surely, most people use different, more integrated tooling.
