No, you completely had it correct. And sending an AI response to a question is the same semi-rude way to respond.

The context here is that the person logging the ticket (or asking the original question by using AI to do it) is the one who is ALSO being a lazy piece of shit, and deserves and equally lazy useless response in the form of a LMGTFY or AI response, because they were too lazy to actually think about their original query and spend time to craft a succinct but useful ticket/query.

That first bot _did_ actually use an em dash in a comment:

What about that could possibly make someone uncomfortable. How does it have any effect on the other parent?

So that cloudflare can now MITM their HTTPS encryption. /s

Lol, then don't use Windows. Why anyone trusts their personal data to closed source software, and especially closed source software by an empirically hostile corporation like Microsoft is beyond me.

A Cloudflare fronted website can't handle HN frontpage levels of traffic?

Then why does anybody use cloudflare?

>"Windows but with even less reliability and more security problems plus tech debt"

To me that just sound like it will make ReactOS much more Windows-like. So it's probably a win for the project. \s

>For example, the main "customer" of the module system is the JDK itself

As mentioned in TFA, "The general advice seems to be that modules are (should be) an internal detail of the JRE and best ignored in application code"

So yeah, why expose it to those who are not the "main customer"?

> His life and activities are not in line with those of more typical programmers.

Okay sure.

I'll use myself as another example then. When I was a dev I used to write a lot of code. Now I'm a tech team lead, and I write less code, but review significantly more code than I used to previously.

I feel more confident, comfortable, and competent in my coding abilities now than ever before even though I'm coding less.

I feel like this is because I am exposed to a lot more code, and not in a passive way (reading legacy code) but an active way (making sure a patch set will correctly implement feature X, without breaking anything existing)

I feel like this principal applies to any programmer. Same thing with e.g. writers. Good writers read _a lot_ and it makes them better writers.

This is my opinion and not based on any kind of research. So if you disagree, that's fine with me. But so far I haven't seen anything to convince me of the opposite.

Tell that to Linus Torvalds.

His whole job is just doing code review, and I'd argue he's better at coding now than he ever was before.

I tend to agree with admaiora. And Organic Maps is a cool project. However I shared this post because it's the first OSM based map/routing project I've seen that actually has traffic data. I thought that was interesting. It is disappointing that the traffic info isn't open as well.

GPL is more restrictive for the developers, but more liberating for the users. If you care about your users, you'd use GPL.

It's just a matter of perspective.

I use Firefox with the vanilla uBlockOrigin. I don't notice any google nagging except on the google translate page.
