if i have to sit in an office to have job security (which is a big if as we see all the time) then i rather get thrown out. that never happened in the past almost 4 decades though: i leave because i get better offers. and never have been in

we don't read it, we only review the resulting code. works fine and the quality is good.

Like NVIDIA bought Groq, AMD might do well buying Cerebras.

I’ve been using both at the same time, but fable had me hitting my limits; even less will have me get 2x codex max instead of one of each.

$100k per month to allow your companies AI to see the vids/pics 100ms earlier than the (billions of) wearers of the glasses.

Not so long ago this was also the thought about mobile phones, now everyone is walking around with them so they can film/pic anyone all the time while 'faking' to be doing something else. If there is any convenience for peopl

When I was in university living in some crappy room at a friend of my parents, it was freezing and there were some transportation issues because of it, so I didn't go to classes and was bored around programming (I wrote Pascal those da

all airconditioning brands had massive uptick in sales in Europe; Spain and other southern countries over 100%. what anti air conditioning sentiment?

> Also, I taught myself machine code programming when I was 11. Yep, and I didn't know assembly/assemblers were a thing (as they were not in magazines), so I typed and still type (for fun) everything in HEX. data 3E,0A,etc.

A lot of my family worked at the Veghel, NL factory 60s to 90s (maybe some of them still do but I do not know); all got boxes of the stuff to take home. The shrinkflation started a long time ago, but, according to my old-uncles not as bad a

It is a nice idea ; I will try it later. Everyone can poop on AI, that’s fine, but this specifically states it is AI and how it is used, so just click on another HN link to cry about AI, not the ones that actually specifically mention it.

Less and less though and you need to go through quite a bit of trouble sometimes already. Banking, gov apps, I know more and more companies you cannot enter nor clock in without smartphone etc. Sure, you can just resign, move country, try t

I get sleepy after drinking coffee. and also energy drinks.

Yeah, I just ignore people who do that. I don’t care what Claude or ChatGPT said. If you cannot be arsed to write yourself then I cannot be arsed to read it.

Many of colleagues do this all the time, usually via the Middle East. I did it before; it sucks but with enough gin tonic and melatonin it goes by in with too much pain.

Coffee makes me sleepy, for instance.

Banning hardware is helping China in the long run though. And long is not actually very long. They will beat 'the west' (even though they are all made in the east now) in semiconductors because of this nonsense within 50 years. An

I still enjoy the symbolic ai space. Any examples of interesting progress there?

I memorized the z80 instruction in hex and would code Basic and data 3E, 15, CD, 00, C0, etc just as if it was readable and wrote many games with that. It was nice income for a 10 year old kid in the 80s and even better after. It does sligh

So many companies have shitloads of downtime and do not compensate. Usually they blame you if they can.

Haha yeah, Uber, Amazon, Starlink, Hotels etc just send me stuff or refund without even asking anything. I use all of them all the time for everything; that indeed seems to help. Logical of course.

That is definitely needed. On Mac it is really infuriating how stuff (auto update etc) just take focus/pop up crap. I am literally never interested in it and am confused why I cannot just say [x] Force apps to mind their own business.

We see no difference between opus 4.8 and fable except that fable is slower. So +1 for not just GP. We use neither interactive, just via our own tooling so the ‘talk to’ doesn’t apply and we use it 24/7. We currently run 25% of tasks o

Yeah... The "Authentic Indian" curry house in my town replaced everything with AI. So the food really doesn't look like whatever they are serving. This was an issue always with plastic / pro photographed food, but now it
