Clean code was the first book I found when looking for books about writing clean code, go figure, and back then I found it very helpful. It's easy to criticize now that I'm so far removed from then (in both time and skill). Before

I am certain I could, in fact I'd bet a lot on it. I'd have a hard time distinguishing AI generated images at this point, but earlier on there were major indicators. This tech is still primitive. The lyrics are dead giveaways, the

NYT writer discovers the term 'slop' days after NYT source leaks on 4chan. Specifically on a board where this is a common phrase. Cites 4chan. I'm connecting the dots

I just don't see how any of these examples from Udio or ElevenLabs could be considered good. To me they sound just bland enough that I may be fooled by them if I weren't paying close attention. If I do pay attention it sounds like

This looks like the perfect tool for rapid prototyping. I am not yet sold on this being a viable method to produce commercial games, but I do think you guys are on to something. Very cool!

This is a mixed bag to me, some of the features sound very cool. I like automatic pulling, doing away with stashing, splitting commits into checkpoints and merges, optional locking and supporting large binary files makes it super adaptable

I'm not sure how that makes sense today, to me it's more of a novel idea than a solution to a problem. I use AI every day in my workflow and I honestly don't believe it's capable of reliably solving merge conflicts. GPT-

Honestly it's so poorly written it's ambiguous as to whether the article refers to "notepad" the program or a physical notepad. The earlier sections talk about compiling often, notepad lacking fancy IDE features, etc. Th

Phones seem to have peaked some years ago, but they're dead set on keeping with the yearly release model. Modern phones have absolutely ridiculous specs. I do not need a $1000+ super phone that folds in half, has an 8 core processor an

Am I the only one who isn't super off-put by interruptions? I don't forget what I was thinking about so quickly, and if I'm thinking through something complex I work it out on paper.

You seem hyper focused on comparing all that you hear to what you already know you like. If you really want to appreciate new music, cut it out. You're introducing bias at the outset. If you approach a new artist as if their work is is

I find that I learn more from books than any other medium. I think it's because of the process of writing a book. It takes extreme dedication, passion, and a deep knowledge of the subject. Most books I've read have been reviewed b

I disagree with everything the author has to say. That being said the user here did something rude in a public place and deserves any backlash they get for doing so. If a little bit of internet condemnation causes someone to have a suicidal

I don't think it was implied that Ford's entire customer base was his own employees, just that he paid them enough to afford the cars the company manufactured. I agree with the rest of this though.

This has the side effect of incentivizing bullshit submissions. This may work better for something that is rigid, like answering some multiple choice questions.

I was going to say you should do a write-up, then I checked your profile! Very cool. Your debug symbol viewing idea sounds like it'd make for a good standalone tool.

For some people it's a more spiritual thing than a practical thing, letting go of desire for unnecessary things and attachment to the physical world.

I did not know all of this about the org. The t-shirt situation is just unfathomably stupid, that last line about anonymity might convince me to cancel. I still do like the product they offer, though. It'll be difficult to give up thei

The two are fundamentally incomparable beyond the surface level fact that "things will be different". Recorded music changed the way we experience music. AI tools may change the way we make music. From my perspective the implicat

Adding my own experience, I take 200MG L-Theanine supplements daily and there is a noticeable calmness. It used in combination with Caffeine a lot to soothe the jitters. There isn't a known LD50 and I've taken up to 600MG, at best

I also notice that some content like art and music only pull passive engagement. On the opposite end of the spectrum you have platforms like Twitch, where a creator's success is almost entirely dependent on their ability to build an ac

I'd disagree with that. Most people I know that use social media for marketing are just following the eyes, making as many people as possible aware that they exist and have done something. If you don't try to put your work out the

Yeah this is my experience as well, gen AI is so well integrated into Photoshop. It's the only software I've used to far where AI integration actually improved the experience. Removing things from pictures used to be a painful pro

Passionless devs exist in droves, but I've never met a dev who didn't enjoy the salary. It's not far fetched at all to say that an individual working on something they care about has different incentives than an employee earn

I don't know if I'd call the output of modern de-compilers "very good", not for native code anyway. They're just a little better than raw disassembly. Even state of the art de-compilers struggle to reconstruct contr

Yes, very much so. I spent a week once just thinking about my alarm clock. It's a $15 Chinese unbranded alarm clock, but it's so complex there are probably no people on Earth who could completely understand it. Analyze its circuit

Interesting read, from the title I figured the article was going to be about "hackers" breaching accounts and reading past conversations. I don't think reading private chats is the way to put it, more like inferring topics of

Weird. I have more of an external monologue, I have to speak to consolidate my thoughts. I can't read a book silently and retain any information. I have to read each page out loud, but the volume doesn't matter. It's more the
