RAII (Resource Acquisition Is Initialization) is the core of C++ idiom. It is about the process and idea of how the object cleans up happens after itself and how a resource belongs to an object lifetime. Why it’s needed anyway, it’s because manually managing resources is easy to get wrong. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49565572 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

Also I installed a bunch of free Sudoku games on my phone and got very (and I mean very) annoyed by the un-dismissible ads and calls to actions. So, I vibe coded an ad-free Sudoku app for the browser (a kind of PWA that plays on a phone browser too). The AI helpfully came up with a system for ranking Sudoku puzzle difficulty (by which strategies are required to solve). I'm at the point where Easy is doable, and Medium does have some challenge to it, but the Hard, Harder, Harde…

Surviving Code Reviews in the era of AIhttps://lobste.rs/s/7tpc5q/surviving_code_reviews_era_ai

My coworkers are all fully AI pilled. As a consequence, every PR that comes my way for review is on average ~6k lines of diff. It's well established that even PRs an order of magnitude smaller than this are too big to be effectively reviewed. I'm still clinging to the idea that us humans should understand how the systems we are building work, so I'm hesitant to use AI for reviews aside from more general question answering. Much of what it produces in the way of explanations are difficult to follow and overly verbose anyway. I'm sure I'm not the only person here who has been dealing with this…
