Wrote "script" by accident once in my terminal. Turns out the unfortunate naming of that gnu tool from unix days makes it rather unknown. Record a debugging terminal session including output to a file. Its pretty great.

clothing is a particularly nasty one. "brand" is sometimes inversely proportional to quality within clothing. Price and quality is just completely random. Checking stitch length, stitch type, fabric feel, fabric composition, any k

I have the habbit to serach for words to verify their spelling. Very costly habbit when i got kagi. When i do actually use it for search; it's amazing... assuming I've not already burnt my quota.

contract is way wider than simple refinement types. Refinement types are just a very specific group of invariants. Contracts are an attempt to include formal specification languages into the implementation languages. You can enforce valid a

That workflow itself is what the author is calling a "vibetax". Models are getting worse for users that must review every line of code the models edits or adds. Models are writing more line of code, changing more lines of code,exe

Forgot where i saw it discussed; If you observe recent model benchmarks over the past year; the performance is slowly climbing, but if you divide by the token count; the score per token is dropping. The current trend in state-of-art LLM cod

LLMs are surprisingly bad at basic CMake, but i don't see why they should be. Much of the truly LLM-difficult code is probably hiding in the libraries we import. Database engines, compilers, efficient data parser, control theory, sign

You didn't read the whole article; it's not a scam, it's a new official cloud-flare product.

> "The high end - the real talent - still stands out" It's a shame we made it economically infeasible to ever more produce or pursue. The value of even mediocre art used to be that it still took a human somewhere hundreds

Most artists would prefer you to steal their art than paying a multi billion dollar company to steal it for you and make a worse inaccurate copy. And there are petabytes large free or cheap archives of clip-art, diagrams, and illustrations

Yes, that's very nice. But that's very different models from LLMs and slop image generators. AI as a term has been butchered beyond recognition; when mentioning the current harm of AI investor hype and job automation, people are t

LEB128 can only trick you by at most one byte, (depending on the followup data). Bijou64 can consistently trick you by 8 bytes. In a contrived example of a pbuf {length:int, payload:byte[1]} LEB128 can trick you into reading the payload as

Clever, but one thought crossed my mind; An adveserial package can claim to have a 255 tagged integer but not actually have any followup, tricking the payload parser into an incorrect offset and reading straight off into followup memory. It
