“Transfer everything with few clicks” should be “Transfer everything with a few clicks”; although the former version is not grammatically incorrect it’s not how this phrase is typically used.

I have pretty good success with asking the model this question before it starts working as well. I’ll tell it to ask questions about anything it’s unsure of and to ask for examples of code patterns that are in use in the application already

My fantasy is that at some point we’ll have a sufficiently powerful telescope to cause a galactic “Van Leeuwenhoek moment” where, just like that discoverer of microbes, we will suddenly see the galaxy swarming with spacecraft.

It's funny, I was wondering about the exact example of a bicycle a few days ago and ended up having a conversation with Claude about it (which, incidentally, made the same point you did). It struck me as remarkable (and still does) tha

Do they reduce or remove the Gemini-justified price increase if you do this? I adore LLMs for coding but I find them so annoying and useless in the context of the Google workspace. Just for fun today, I tried "Summarize this email&quot

It’s like a friend of mine who has an AI company said to me: the future isn’t building a CRM with AI. The future is saying to the AI, act like a CRM.

It’s disheartening to see this happen in real time. I raised my kids to be readers but the habit ultimately didn’t stick. My son got assigned Frankenstein in his Grade 12 English class and I hoped for the best but he was bored to tears by i

Do you have to review the code? I’ll be honest that, like the OP theorizes, I often just spot review it. But I also get it to write specs (often very good, in terms of the ones I’ve dug into), and I always carefully review and test the resu

I see my kid doing homework and he’s got YouTube open on his other monitor. I don’t know how that constitutes “working” but maybe in the future, you will indeed have your movie playback window underneath your vibe coding UI. Sounds terrible

I suspect I'm close to the SDAM side on the autobiographical memory spectrum, since reading this my immediate thought was, wow. But you make a good point. So I have a question for you, which is, do you remember acquaintances from a few

The order also dates back to May 13. What the fuck?! That’s weeks ago! The only reason I can think of for why OpenAI did not warn its users about this via an email notification is because it’s bad for their business. But wow is it ever a br

This is super cool. I love how you delivered this as an experience, with very cool UI, background music, etc. It was a real trip. Different music and also an ambient mode where it’s atmosphere designed for the particular world would level t

They will not rest until humanity has become as depicted in WALL-E: the ultimate brainless consumers. Unable to concentrate or focus or form an original thought. WALL-E might be the most prescient sci-fi movie ever made.

Yes, totally. And it makes the concept even cooler.

Of all the reasons I would not enlist in the military, this one never occurred to me, but it is now probably in my top five.

This looks very interesting! A bit of feedback for you: the number one question I have as I look at this is, podcasts about what?

I’m intrigued and made a note to check this out, but I just wanted to say that I love this design! It’s gorgeous. Is this a template or did you hire a designer or design it yourself?

Sounds interesting and useful. How difficult has this been to create? Have you encountered obstacles you didn’t expect that chewed up a lot of time?

In the first paragraph, he writes, ”I think writing that sounds good is more likely to be right.” So he does indeed make the claim you say he doesn’t make. The essay itself lacks anything novel, despite the rather breathless framing: “So he

I also use Aider (lately, always with 3.7-sonnet) and really enjoy it, but over the past couple of weeks, the /architect feature has been pretty weird. It previously would give me points (e.g. 1. First do this, 2. Then this) and, well,

Hopefully they figure it out because I love my Mazda 3 hatchback and would buy an EV version of it in a heartbeat. Not only is it very fun to drive (I have a manual transmission) but the interior design is excellent.

That's exactly right. The problem with the public broadcasters is not that they are regime media, it's that they are not. Put another way, the problem is that they tell the truth. Fox News, on the other hand, is very much regime m

Same thing happened to me. I probably get ten calls per day. I just don’t answer the phone any more unless I recognize the number. It’s very annoying. If I accidentally answer a spam call, most of the time I’ll just hang up. But I’m also ve

I’m so irritated by the constant emails I get as part of automated drip marketing campaigns. Many of them start with outright falsehoods (“I tried calling you”, “I spoke to one of your colleagues”, etc.) and they almost all pretend like the
