Yeah.... The code isn't the hard part. That's not where the value is.

This hard part when you're doing in house stuff is getting a good spec, ongoing support, and long term maintenance.

I've gone trough development of a module with a stakeholder, got a whole spec, confirmed it, coded it, launched it, and was then told it didn't work at all like what they needed. It was literally what they told me... I've said 'yes we can make that report, what specific fields do you need' and gotten blank stares.

Even if you're lucky and the original stakeholder and the code are on the same page, as soon as you get a coworkers 'wouldnt it be nice if...' you're going to have a bad day if it's hand coded, vibecoded, or outsourced...

This has always been the problem, it's why no-code never _really_ worked, even if the tech was perfectly functional.


this is what the stock market is pricing in

Isn't that the point of vibe coding? You don't even look at the code. Just trust the llm to take the wheel.

That's the steam deck, the handheld, not the minipc like cube they announced


This discussion is about the Steam Deck.


Top level comment was about both ('also affect their unreleased devices'), this sub-thread about the latter ('going to').


If my high school English is to be believed, there isn’t a sentence that isn’t metaphor, and if you think it’s straightforward, you’re getting an F.


No, not ai. Just an alternative input method.


sell $50 keychains. done.


The corporation already sells user-facing products: Mozilla VPN, MDN Plus, Firefox Relay, Pocket (previously).

Feel free to subscribe to them to give money directly to the Mozilla Corporation, the future you're looking for is already here.


They sell T-shirts, totes, and backpacks:

That makes no sense. Why would you not be testing with optimized hosting.

If one of the OSs has features that improve performance, why would you not include that in the comparison?


Local scrap yards will now have a ton of copper wire AND charger handles


google literally tells them it's an ai generated report


That is not the definition of slop.


if it's unwanted then it is

and the ffmpeg maintainers say it's not wanted

so it's slop


It’s a reproducible use-after-free in a codec that ships by default with most desktop and server distributions. It can be leveraged in an exploit chain to compromise a system.

I'm not a Google fan, but if the maintainers are unable to understand that, I welcome a fork.


This didn't make sense to me either? If it only took three days for a complete rewrite to another language, what's the problem? Did I read they were getting interrupted for user requests? felt weird.
