Just fabulous. Reading Byte in the Science Library at Uni while studying accounting was one of the things that got me interested in computing so many years ago. Thank you!

Better models please, rather than this need to build questionable tools around them. What can we possibly integrate with next seems the only way AI providers can currently proceed?

~1985 Iterative Development. That waterfall was what everyone did before agile is a myth. AI produces the recent popular viewpoint as truth whether it is true or not.

I believe that BMW group uses Flutter/Dart. Interesting that there seems little complaint about their software here.

Well it’s not about math. Stick to lines of code, functions and modules for that. Use it for abstract data types, frameworks and modeling.

It’s surely more likely that such disinformation will become the new truth, rather than people losing trust in these systems?

Don’t overestimate Apple versus your economy. Its real value (book value) is about 60 billion. It might have a speculative value in the trillions, but speculative value is just well… speculative .

Commercial endeavors exist to provide goods and services to consumer and users. The implication of the author here is that those providing services that continue using human resources rather than AI, are potentially acting like carriage m

> It seems that it’s more common that unskilled developers using LLMs just vibe code … This is my conclusion to date also, however, I believe the reason behind that is the increasing adoption of agentic tools like Claude Code and Gemini

My immediate thought is that you do not need to learn “computer science”. It is for academics, those looking to differentiate themselves from the other 2000 CS equipped applicants for a job, those wanting interviews answering useless data s

What a nightmare. First a week full of useless undefined meetings, largely so that everyone can cover their asses, and now most don’t even bother turning up because they can automate covering their asses. I can see the prompt now… “let me k

I have long felt that deterministic business processes are not suited to LLM orchestration. Isn’t the author in this article expressing this discovery?

Yay, everyone that writes a line of text to an LLM can now claim to be an "engineer".

It’s surely a question of perspective. View entries as (perhaps) things to do, or just as historical record. The former is likely a mental burden, the latter not?

Makes me think about starting a non-profit club at a physical location. Some comfortable chairs etc. Just a quiet place to go read or be in the proximity of others. Perhaps with rules about what’s allowed: - Members only (guests have to joi

Of course they are unnecessary, but then strictly speaking control statements can be omitted in favor of goto statements. Are they unnecessary?

It really is a standard protocol for connecting clients to models and vice versa. It’s not there to just be a container for tool calls.

Simple. Live with it, seek to be transferred, or take your abilities elsewhere. My advice is to decide which without delay, as not deciding will take a significant toll on your life.

These days, many programmers and projects are happy to leave testing and defect discovery to end users, under the guise of “but we have unit tests and CI”. That’s exacerbated when using LLM driven code with abandon. The author is one who ap

I agree with not liking the author’s definition of an Agent being … “a for loop which contains an LLM call”. Instead it is an LLM calling tools/resources in a loop. The difference is subtle and a question of what is in charge.

He was quoting someone else. Please take care not to attribute falsely, as it creates a falsehood likely to spread and become the new (un) truth.

The consensus for right or wrong, is that LLM produced code (unless repeated verbatim) is equivalent to you or I legitimately stating our novel understanding of mixed sources some of which may be copyrighted.

Perhaps useful to produce a list of true constraints in contrast to false ones. Perhaps that would result in too many “except for”, “apart from” and “subject to” statements. Aside: is there a notation for such constraints?

Actually, their speculative value is about 3 trillion. Their book value is around 68 billion. Their speculative value might be halved (or more) overnight based on the whim of the economy, markets and opinion. A company isn't actually

Whats sad is the misrepresentation will likely become over time, the new “truth”.

Aren’t most traditional business processes entirely deterministic and better suited to traditional data processing methods?

It means US instruments of debt are to be considered a little less trustworthy. This affects their price, value and attractiveness versus alternatives.
