A former Google software engineer and architect, in a book on software quality, states that Agile methodology can often become a tool for micro-management and result in poor code. Managers spur micromanagement
|

|
|
I've seen micromanagement in waterfall development shops as well.
|
|
|
|
|
And in other places without methodology...
and it everywhere sucks the same.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Microsoft’s LASER method seems counterintuitive, but it makes models trained on large amounts of data smaller and more accurate. There's nothing the pew-pew can't do-do

Are they putting the LASERs on sharks?
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

I'd say it's not very effective. At the end of the day during the New Hampshire Primary, I was looking for a good ticker on tracking the results. Bing's LLM came back and said that Trump had won all (100%) the republican votes. The problem was that at that point in time, only Dixville Notch had reported in and Nikki Haley had all 6 votes.

Routers were being used to conceal attacks on critical infrastructure. Outsource your IT security to the FBI
Oh, but they did have to get permission. So, warm and fuzzies!

I thought it was going to be: Chinese malware removed from SOHO routers after FBI replaces it with their own.

Microsoft is testing native Sudo command support for Windows 11. We'll finally be able to get that sandwich!
For those that don't get the 'joke': xkcd: Sandwich[^]
|
|
|
|
|
Why do I think that once it is broadcasted through the updates, the news about security flaws in windows 11 will increase drastically?

A new report from cloud security company Sysdig reveals that many businesses are indulging in the dangerous practice of putting convenience before preventive security in pursuit of faster application development. Should I have warned you before posting this shocking news?

Must be a slow news day. This has long been known.

Both are true.

A new Germany-based startup, Semron, is developing what it describes as “3D-scaled” chips to run AI models locally on smartphones, earbuds, VR headsets and other mobile devices. The article doesn't answer the important question: can they run DOOM?

LLM on expandable RISC-like architecture sounds like a big win to me, but also very very hard to do.
edit: After rtfa, that's not exactly what they are shooting for, but close, and if someone does manage it, they will make bank. FPGAs could also be a similar route to the same result(s). The idea being hardware that can alter itself to model use-case to give performant operations against a specific model(s) (model-on-chips).

FPGAs have been around a minute, they're pretty good for a certain class of computing problems.
Sure, pretty much everything about AI is scary. It's at least a good thing none of it is real. Most everything being called AI is actually ML.
Nothing resembling artificial general intelligence is probably even on the horizon. It won't stop people from thinking otherwise. It also won't stop "unintelligent" killer robots. But even ChatGPT and Bard are alive, depending who you ask. Not their fault or anything... Dr Sbaitso seemed pretty alive something like three decades ago too.

Simulated 1-bit, 32x48 cellular grid runs at a blazing 0.00003 fps. Sure, teach the bacteria to run and gun. What could go wrong?
Although "run" seems way too generous for this bit of headlinery
