My understanding is if an employee who gets paid largely in tips isnt making more than min wage, that employee is almost always let go or quits. Employment layers dont love trying to prove a case that is pretty unlikely to be provable.

As far as I can tell, its the second or third or fourth most universal term behind chatgpt (to describe all llms), llms, or ai. It also tends to be the one folks who do not really like ai use. I've been using it because it is a lot mor

RIP to the legend. He has a lot of really fun ideas spread across his books.

Boo. Feels like this post should be flagged. Without a way to join, its just promotional.

Why did you design it that way then? Actually asking, not taking the piss.

I get very annoyed when llms respond with quotes around certain things I ask for, then when I say what is the source of that quote? they say oh I was paraphrasing and that isnt a real quote. At least wikipedia has sources that probably supp

I dont know about that! In theory it sounds good. I know a company that hired a very good hands on cto who then hired 5 50k entry level engineers that was largely the extent of their team for 1-2 years. Then they started to hire more senior

Me too. I had a grandparent with AOL dial up until about 5 years ago. I was shocked when I visited her house and realized it.

The slippery slope is the one the payment processors have been sliding down for a while. Steam and itch dont want to pull these games. They dont have a choice.

That's all? No way.

Yeah... There are improvements to be made by increasing the context window and having agents reference documentation more. Half the issues I see are with agents just doing their own thing instead of following established best practices they

I believe this has been talked about a lot. Musk wasnt thrilled about this change but Tesla is, like it or not, the most recognizable electric car company in America. If you are dead set on going electric you are likely going to at least lo

The Pizza Hut Personal Pan Pizza has about 600 calories in it. Maybe slightly indulgent, but that is a very reasonable reward and trade off for getting kids to read more.

Palantir Technologies is named after the "palantír" from Lord of the Rings. Famously, a well-used and safe technology.

Yup. As engineers, we MIGHT care about code quality. The end user just cares if something works in the way they want/expect it to. A lot of large successful companies have rough code quality.

Copilot in vscode is so bad about typescript errors as well.

Thank god. I was shocked that there wasnt a bigger outrage last week when github decided that copilot was going to have premium request limits. I'm guessing we will see a much larger outcry when people hit their request limit a week in

I lost one parent to cancer but the other has been cancer free for over ten years now. I'm devastated by the lose of one parent but incredibly grateful for the one who beat their cancer. Is that winning? I dont know. But the likelihood

Need For Speed: Underground 2 and I think a decent chunk of other NFS were open world and really fun. Driving your car around in a driving game should be fun.

I guess it's all up to interpretation, but having a brand in one space doesn't necessarily translate to a brand in another. OpenAI doesnt/didnt have a code editor. Now it does/it will. I'm fairly into llms but it to

Yup. I found cursor to be better but not good enough that it really made that much of a difference in my actual day to day.

Yup. Even a small market share is market share. Plus they are paying to acquire a team of folks who are already in this space and who will, until golden handcuffs come off, keep working in this space. Still an insane number though.

I was a little late to jump on the cursor bandwagon but finally downloaded it because i liked the LLM chat interface in the sidebar. By the time my free trial ran out, VSCode had added a LLM chat interface in the sidebar. Yes Cursor had a b

Wild take. Almost every single company of a certain size does outbound. Just like how almost every company sends endless marketing emails. Yeah its spammy. But it also converts some small percentage of users so they will continue to do it.
