In the past these people would have been called royals or lords. They are “elite” on name only, really. It’s what happens when the gap of inequality widens deeper and deeper. You end up with nepotism instead of actual skill and the whole sy

In other words: Nothing has changed. Finance is destroying the real economy in search for "optimization" because business value doesn't neatly fit into an excel sheet cell. All these layoffs have been done because of AI washi

Sounds like the typical "Distributed Monolith" antipattern. And we will see more of that because "software is cheap" and everybody will built microservices and find themselves in hell because nobody stopped to think if t

Definitely mirrors a lot of my own thinking. Only made it to section 3 so far but it strikes me that we live in a time of extraordinary complexity and the formal structures we live in don’t align with the informal systems that have emerged

Sometimes the commenters actually have genuine insights that must reports/articles will never mention. Sadly, I'm quite a cynical person that expects everything to have a spin unless it comes from an authoritative source. In gener

True, it's an achievement either way. But if an "out of the box LLM" can solve difficult math problems it is an achievement by the LLM vendor. Otherwise it is an achievement by the people doing the vertical integration. In th

But are we talking pure LLMs, or existing AI solvers augmented with LLMs? Because while the latter is impressive, it doesn't state much outside of this specific domain. If anything, I see greater verticality of specialized software tha

This is another way of telling us you haven't seen the movie without telling us you haven't seen the movie.

And what's the certainty of this fix no introducing another bug? Then you realize tests are failing but now you are not sure if they actually test against implementation or if they were genuinely good tests. It's a slippery slope

What C# version does Unity currently support? 2024 I chose Godot over Unity due to its better C# support and I can’t say that I came to regret my decision.

Care to elaborate? I think Java is showing remarkable vision and cohesion in their roadmap. Their released features are forward compatible and integrate nicely into existing syntax. I work much with C# these days and wish C# had as cohesive

And this is the best-case scenario. Because once updates become opt-out it simply becomes an attack vector of another type. If the updated code is not open source, you are trusting blindly that not some kind of different remote code executi

As a non-mathematician I always wondered about one thing. Because the way I interpret the Incompleteness Theory is that "you cannot have a universal system of infinite expressiveness, because you will need a more expressive one to prov

You are assuming they all act as wise and with the foresight of Jobs. Jobs was a products guy that had an intricate understanding on the relation of people and technology. The others are just finance bro's dressed up in tech clothes.

Yep. Companies will soon find out that their savings in dev time has an increase in BA and testing.

I'm never sure how much faith one can put into such benchmarks but in any case the optics seem to shift once you have pass@2 and pass@3. Still, the more interesting comparison would be against something such as Codex.

Not at the moment, but a release of Mistral 4 seems close which likely bridges the gap.

Neat! Even-though they should probably use a custom type rather than the generic "Stream" to communicate that this needs to be closed. Or remove the try-with-resource block if closing is not necessary. This way it leaves some room

Yeah... it's difficult enough to find engaging conversations with people I do know. If you want to talk for the sake of talking, there won't be a shortage of possibilities. And if you are sociable enough, people will do so. But ou

Or AI will double down in the Dunning Krueger effect, where true mastery not only diminishes, but people collectively take low erfort AI answers as the baseline truth.

Oh yeah, that's a fun exercise. And it comes with a mermaid generator as a bow on top too. Did pretty much the same in Java at university.

I like this way of thinking about it. I wish more comments would be as thoughtful as this!
