I found the react comments funny: Obviously a huge success but we're still discussing the same criticisms.

curious: what kind of tooling would you use here?

When presented with a choice, I'd prefer to pick something where I know that the sky is the limit in terms of features. And going with a non-framework approach has the following risk: Of course I might build individual, customized skys

Hmm... I don't know how serious this wants to be taken - first example argues that syntax is interchangeable - but then the author tries to sell me his semis ??? And who even cares in the time of LLMs and auto formatting? "My hamm

I think this is a good idea. The next one would be to also decouple the visual part of a website from the data/interactions: Let the users tell their in-browser agent how to render - or even offer different views on the same data. (And

Question: Are you writing this under the assumption that the proposed WebMCP is for navigating websites? If so: It is not. From what I've gathered, this is an alternative to providing an MCP server. Instead of letting the agent call a

2k is the same on the linear scale no matter where you are. that's what the linear scale is about. you're already interpreting this on the log scale
159.
by Garlef 8mo ago
Maybe think about it like this: A dev is ~1k per day. If the tool gives you 3x then 2x in cost is fine. (The current cost of 1k is "real" and ultimately, even if you tinker on your own, you're paying this in opportunity cost)

On the other hand: Perception of change might not be linear but logarithmic. (= it might take an order of magnitude of improvements to be perceived as a substantial upgrade) So the perceived rate of change might be linear. It's definit

I guess the xAI/SpaceX thing is mainly a financial move and they made up an interesting story to give it some context

My last experience was with someone giving me answers that where clearly in part LLM generated: It contained payloads/configs that did not even match the actual API

Yes. And AI is bad at design. But that's why you tell the AI to refactor. I've started a greenfield project and went 100% AI for learning purposes (of course it's more like 95%) and my takeaway is: - it's fully possible

Interesting. Could you provide a bit more detail on how the DAG emerges?

I recently had the pleasure of reading a few books out of the "Thomas the Tank Engine" Childrens-Content Universe to my nephew. Slop is definitely everywhere.

Maybe a subscription based payment model would also work for in general? Similar to a gym membership where only a small part of the paying users actually show up.

My thoughts went into a different direction: "Maybe I should buy a small tablet so that I can read code properly without carrying a full laptop?" (Sure, there might be small laptops of similar dimensions ... But as the name "

The whole way media treats numbers is more than tiring: "X increased by Y" Sure... but: - What's the relative increase? - Is this increase out of the ordinary? Annually? Globally? But I don't think this is some sort of c

My experience with coding agents points into the other direction: It's mentally very taxing! Usually, you have a lot of time to think on the side while coding on what to do next, strategize, etc. But if you work in small increments wit
