I'm one of those people who took "the money and [ran]"
I'm a digital nomad and have been traveling full time for 7 years now. It's great, it's a good balance of work/life balance but one thing you slowly start to notice is when you leave your country, no matter if you learn the language or how much integrate yourself into that country, you will always be an outsider to the majority in that country.
As an american you will always be a Yankee, Farang or Gringo and will carry the weight of the US collective.
As a neurodiverse offspring of a biracial marriage, I’m starting to feel more and more like an outsider in my home state. Though I’d likely feel it much more if I left now, to your point.
>so they changed the existing code to just check that predicate first, and the code sped up a zillion times, much more than with Ken's solution.
but since you've now spent all this time developing some beautiful solution for .01% of the actual data flow. Not the best use of dev time, essentially.
Would fig not fit this usecase? I seem to be misunderstanding the post a bit. It seems like he's going through great lengths not to use cursor? This regex must of been gnarly to write

2k NG, 9k Police, and LA is still burning. The protests are still violent. I'm not sure how this ends without a continued escalation and some very violent night that gets dubbed the "California massacre" in the history books. Deploying military members who are trained to put two in the chest and one in the head all but ensures this.
But then again, how are people protesting ICE doing their literal job? The other side of the coin is that anyone can come into the united states and live here. Which is an unsustainable policy.
I don't have the answers here, but i pray the violence stops.

Using this as a tool to signal can be a huge time saver. But not taking the code output as "truth" is what the engineer meant.

This article, just like you, are taking all of these out of context.

He's using LLM's as a potential flag, then you go and human review those contracts with lawyers, supply chain, business specialists, nurses on the ground, etc. etc.
Calling him an idiot for being transparent is a personal attack, and has no place here.
Directly from the github:
Tools I have written to do stuff more effectively at the VA. Code exists to make humans more efficient; not to replace them. All code leads to human review. Feedback appreciated!
Spoken like a developer who doesn't understand how real world works.
> Using this as a tool to signal can be a huge time saver. But not taking the code output as "truth" is what the engineer meant.
Lavingia didn't provide any provable metric that this tool was going a "huge time saver". Additionally, if the output isn't the "truth", what can kind of time saving is expected? That a person needs to run the code, get result and then spend time analyzing results and cross verifying contracts again?
You know what will be a good time saver? Open the contracts and cross check it if it is valid. No AI slop required.
> This article, just like you, are taking all of these out of context.
Real people are impacted by VA contracts. If there is even 1 contract impacting even 100s of people that is enough damage. Saying that this is people taking things out of context shows your of empathy for other human beings, at least if they are not coders.
Because apparently Lavingia should get kudos for his transparency. But calling him an idiot for his lack of self-awareness that he had no clue about government contracts and should not be writing AI and creating this mess, all the while impacting people's life? Well we can't have that.
> He's using LLM's as a potential flag, then you go and human review those contracts with lawyers, supply chain, business specialists, nurses on the ground, etc. etc.
If human review is the point then start from there. Don't write AI slop, generate wrong result and then ask for human review.
To the larger point - Benjamin Franklin said - 'It is better 100 guilty Persons should escape than that one innocent Person should suffer'. In the same vein every well meaning contract/legislation which is helping 100s will have 10s exploiting the loophole. People like Lavingia and from DOGE seemed to have decided that rooting out those 10s is worth hurting the 100s. So, lets write an AI for that.
using an LLM is a very VERY small part of the code he published. 12 lines out of around 13k lines. You seem to be disagreeing with the concept, not the actual code. you prolly could have reviewed the code in the time it took you to google that ben franklin quote.
If you look at the code, he explicitly filters for sole source before he even sicks a LLM on it.
Regardless, number of lines is not an accurate metric of how "essential" a component is to the functioning of the overall system. How about this, try removing the LLM-related code from the script... what functionality is left, exactly?
They've issued a stay. So, this is a giant nothing burger until 9 June, and then it's a giant nothing burger until it gets to the supreme court, because they can issue a stay until they've ruled on it.
Trump seems to be in control of the supreme court, so i imagine this will all end in a giant nothing burger.
They turned it around by not being GE anymore. The stock trading as "GE" now is just GE aircraft engines, aka "GE Aerospace". The healthcare stuff went to "GE Healthcare" (GEHC) and power systems went to "GE Vernova" (GEV)
They also sold GE's profitable GE biotech division to Danaher where Larry Culp was the previous CEO. The proceeds was then used to shore up the finances of GE.
GE finance was spun off into Ally bank.
The other part of the turnaround though was the pension. Pension funds in a zero interest rate environment is a giant liability. That was a huge part of what drag down GE's finances for a while. Once the interest rate started to go back up again, the pension liability shrunk by a lot.
Overall, GE is in a much better position now then it was in the past two decades. I don't know why the post ends up on such a negative note. GE has been severely humbled but I think it's well positioned to grow again.
I've invested in GE twice, both during its downturns. This time I'm holding onto it because I think it's structurally in a better place than it was before.
GE Finance was spun off into Synchrony Bank. Ally Bank is the former General Motors Acceptance Corp (GMAC) the former finance arm of GM pre-financial crisis bankruptcy
> ksmbd has too much code for it all to fit in your context window in one go.
Therefore you are going to audit each SMB command in turn. Commands are
handled by the __process_request function from server.c, which selects a
command from the conn->cmds list and calls it. We are currently auditing the
smb2_sess_setup command. The code context you have been given includes all of
the work setup code code up to the __process_request function, the
smb2_sess_setup function and a breadth first expansion of smb2_sess_setup up
to a depth of 3 function calls.
The author deserves more credit here, than just "vibing".
