Which facts? Do you have some facts that explain why Apple did this move? Because all the facts I know of paint a picture of Apple throwing a massive tantrum at any kind of consumer protection rulings they might be subject to. They would AB

This seems like the obvious outcome, considering all the hype. The more powerful the AI, the more power it has to break stuff. And there is literally ZERO possibility to remove that risk. So, whos going to tell your gungho CEO that the fanc

You've now watered down your frankly crazy statement of "Nazis were socialist, actually" to "Nazis and socialists a group of people that make policies to improve the wellbeing of that group". This fits every single

It's 300MB of RAM when it's not doing much, it's the lowest possible value. When so many little tools that you normally keep running in the background, it starts adding up. Not to mention that not everyone has that much RAM.

I've used the 200 bucks Claude Code account, and while that's pretty great, it's definitely not "fire and forget". It often requires a completely different skill set. You basically need to develop a feeling for what

My experience with Supermaven has been close to perfect. Imho, the smaller the suggestion, the better it generally is. 99% of supermaven suggestions are just one line.

Ironically, e-bikes, at least in the EU, are having the exact opposite effect. More people that don't normally ride bikes are using e-bikes to get about. The motor functions not as a replacement, but as a force multiplier. It also make

Why is it so hard to believe that well tested, typed code is better than manual string concatenation? Before you tell me about how you just use a Query Builder/DSL and a object mapper for convenience: That's a freaking ORM!

Personally, I would love to not use homebrew, but I'm practically forced to. The package management story in Linux is horrible, far worse than the general fans lead me to believe. Most tools I need are missing or ancient, even in the F

They already do, or at least Claude Code does. It will search for a method name, then only load a chunk of that file to get the method signature, for example. It will use the general information you give it to make educated guesses of where

In my experience in a Java code base, it didn't do any of this, and did a good job with exceptions. And I have to disagree that these aren't errors that beginners or even intermediates make. Who hasn't swallowed an error beca

If you actually want a gotcha comparison, go for beef. It uses absurd amounts of every relevant resource compared to every alternative. A vegan vibe coder might use less water any given day than a meat loving AI hater.

Possibly stupid question, but does this apply to things like M365 too? Because just like with Inference providers, the only thing keeping them from reading/abusing your data is a pinky promise contract. Basically, isn't your data

Certainly, but that would also indirectly de-subsidize the animal agricultural industry. People are addicted to their animal products, going so far as to pretend they're essential and not just a luxury.

By your very own logic, I could argue that dictators have more carte blanche to make correct choices, where democracies are mired down by compromises and too many cooks in the kitchen.

Sure, but then the parameters of those queries are still dynamic and chosen by the LLM. So, you have to choose between making useful queries available (like writing queries) and safety. Basically, by the time you go from just mitigating pro
