Bash might not be difficult, but it is very annoying, so I'm happy that the AI edits my scripts for me.

I'm not sure, I have a custom config format that combines a CSV schema with processing instructions that I use for bank CSVs and Claude was able to generate a perfect one for a new bank only based on one config plus CSV and the new ban

That seems a bit extreme, given that a lion also has a mammal brain. I'd expect it to also think in terms of distinct entities that can move around in the environment and possibly talk about things like "hunger" and "pre

Strongly disagree. The only instance where autocomplete helped me was a situation where I would have required macros, so I typed out the first 3 cases manually and had autocomplete generate the next 20. In all other cases, autocomplete was

The point of it being universal is that you still have a good incentive to work, since every dollar earned is a dollar more in your pocket (initially, before you reach the income level where you need to pay taxes). Compare that to non-uni

Not necessarily, crashes in production give you way more crash logs, which sometimes make the root cause instantly obvious and thus quicker to fix.

Could we also agree that bilingual (or more) people exist? I hate playing whack-a-mole with YouTube captions: Apparently me turning them off on English videos means I only speak English, so the next time I watch a German video, I'll ha

Maybe because it's not about the code, it's about the compiled software? Also, I like AI art; I made a Lego model and then fed it into an image generator to kinda generate a "reverse" reference image. So it looks like th

Right, just how the assembler spits out machine code that other people figured out for you, so you don't even understand the result.

Right, just how back in the day, people who loved writing assembly hated high level languages and people who found assembly too tedious loved compilers.

What a perplexing article. Isn't a pixel clearly specified as a picture element? Isn't the usage as a length unit just as colloquial as "It's five cars long", which is just a simplified way of saying "It is as

Your ideas sound a lot like those of the APPD, the Anarchist Pogo Party of Germany: They advocate to "balkanize" Germany into three zones: - Asozial Parasite Zone: For lazy punks who don't like to work - Safe Business Zone: F

Oh, that's interesting! It sounds like it's not literally being fed UTF-8 bytes, but instead more like this: For rarely seen characters, it's two tokens, namely first a codeblock token ("Tag" token in this case), fo

I don't understand. Why would much of the vocabulary be dedicated to rare Chinese characters? Wouldn't those need to show up in the training data first? And if they did, wouldn't they also show up as weird byte sequences? And

While I think your example is fine, I think the complaint was more about very long chains. Personally, I like to break them up to give intermediate results names, kinda like using variable names as comments: var longBooks = books.filter

I fully agree, building something like this is somewhere in my back log. I think the key point why this "reverse cyborg" idea is not as dystopian as, say, being a worker drone in a large warehouse where the AI does not let you go

I'm not sure, since this was so long ago. Maybe there were manual saves, but I did not use them and instead trusted the game that I would not need them? To me, it's either a game design failure (losing the campaign item basically

I think what I meant is that out of these three ways to do it, I don't like the second one: 1. The language has the feature of returning multiple values, which is then used in an error handling pattern. 2. The proposal is about special
