AI image generation can finally express what I picture when hearing Aston Martin DB9: https://chatgpt.com/s/m_6883b37e1fc881919e3af8f862aa7900

If you keep calling it DB9 everybody knows what you're talking about. They don't think you're weird and they also don't waste time talking about terminology.

Sure, but it kills the UX for people who speak more than one language. Which is probably the majority of YouTube users (outside the US).

This really needs to be configurable on a per-account basis. I'm using YouTube mostly on mobile devices and TVs, without the possibility to use addons. The required settings are quite simple (a lot of social media platforms have them):

SPAs are great for highly interactive pages. Something like a mail client. It's fine if it takes 2-3 seconds extra when opening the SPA, it's much more important to have instant feedback when navigating. SPAs are really bad for mo

Only if you're using VS code in the first place. VS code is fine for web dev and js/ts/python. But I really don't like it for Java, C#, C++, SQL, and many more.

The thing is, all the models are not that 'smart'. None of them is AGI. Currently it's much more important to manage context, split tasks, retry when needed, not getting stuck in an infinite loop, expose the right tools (but

A lot of people switched away from Cursor within the blink of an eye. Switching IDEs is a big deal for me - it takes a lot of effort, which is why I never switched to Cursor in the first place. I think Claude Code is a much better concept,

I guess flat fee AI subscriptions are not a thing that is going to work out. Probably better to stay on usage based pricing, and just accept that every API call will be charged to your account.

The 1h I'm talking about is not all the time I might spend reading on code. It's the time I might procrastinate on my tasks with reading unrelated code. Like doom scrolling on social media: Let's see what the fancy new guy go

What I noticed: AI development constantly breaks my flow. It makes me more tired, and I work for shorter time periods on coding. It's a myth that you can code a whole day long. I usually do intervals of 1-3 hours for coding, with some

I really like the example with Apple Maps on Car Play. I had exactly the described struggle a few days ago. I very rarely use car play in rental cars, maybe 4 or 5 times for very short drives so far. It really took me more than a minute to

I guess that's a gap for a new tool to be developed. Emulate as much hardware as possible, to make a VM look like a real PC. Maybe also faking the CPU ID, to fake another CPU type with less performance (from the same series), so malwar

Rule of thumb: Explain every abbreviation the first time it is used in an article or a meeting. Only really obvious things like USB or HTTP can be skipped.

Special keyboards for one-handed typing are probably very expensive because of two reasons. First the small market, not a lot of potential customers, a lot of development costs and high per-unit production costs. And second because they are

Someone still needs to hire the driver and set up everything. Much easier for someone that can just blend in, looks like everyone else, speaks the language and doesn’t only know the culture well, but even grew up in a similar culture.

How can you use make as a script runner? Is it possible to add targets that are not part of the tree and execute every time you run them? something like make clear-test-database that runs every time you execute it, but is not execute

Sure, but I think you still need to provide the full path of the script. If you're inside a source folder very deep it will lead to something like: dotnet script ../../../../../scrips/scaffold-somethin

I think you're the only one.

I don't think make and task are suited very well for running scripts that are not part of the build process. Something like scaffolding, or starting a dev dependency. Also it requires the developers to install additional tools to get s

Is it possible to add those scripts project-scoped like with npm run? They should work for everyone who checks out the repo.

This feature is probably a big thing for .NET developer productivity. It's quite a shame, that it only came now. There is another thing I'm really missing for .NET projects. The possibility to easily define project-specific comman

I really prefer Scoop over WinGet. Scoop installs most packages into exactly one folder and sets up shims/links. And it has an unified install/update methodology. WinGet is more or less just downloading the installers and running

Amazon really keeps recordings of all the things you ever said to Alexa. That's wild (I didn't know before).
