I agree, from my experience Grok gives superior coding results, especially when modifying large sections of the codebase at once such as in refactoring. Although it’s not for coding, I have noticed Gemini 2.5 pro Deep Research has surpassed

Yes, Grok has become my go to model for general research and targeted coding tasks. Feels like its getting better over time vs ChatGPT which seemed to deteriorate over time. Claude 3.7 is excellent, and better at coding but I appreciate th

I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong, but Gemini 2.5 pro was substantially worse coding quality than Grok. Which is surprising since I’m working on a Golang codebase which I had assumed Gemini would excel at given that it’s made by Go

The trick I’ve been using is to copy the entire codebase into a text prompt with Repo Prompt and feed that into Grok with a specific request on what feature / change I want. Then paste that output into Cursor with Claude 3.7 and have i

I believe it is fairly accurate at estimating the ride time. The first time I took it though, I mistakenly thought it would take the same amount of time to get to my destination as Google Maps estimated since that is usually the case for Ub

I could definitely see that. If you're not pressed on time it can be a smoother ride for sure. But if you're trying to get somewhere fast or efficiently like going to the airport, you'd want to get a regular Lyft/Uber ot

In my experience Waymo has been much worse compared to Lyft/Uber for longer rides. A big problem with Waymo in its current state is how its routes are terribly inefficient. It purposely avoids freeways and higher speed roads, opting to

This is incorrect, or misleading at best. The map that you linked contains data about TCE levels in public water systems. It does not imply anything about the contamination of the groundwater supply which exists below many homes and workp

It doesn't seem sensationalist to me. I looked up three different strip malls that I am familiar with and all of them have some kind of PCE cleanup sites from previous or current dry-cleaners. Here's one example in Santa Clara of

If you’re in an apartment building, moving to a higher floor would help as it affects the basement and first floor the most. If you’re in a house, the same mitigations for radon exposure would likely work to reduce TCE as well. Regularly ve

It's not supposed to leach into the groundwater, but nobody is enforcing the companies that are handling these chemicals to ensure they don't get into the groundwater supply. Many of the worst contaminations in the area were cause

For those living in the bay area, you should know that the groundwater in many areas is contaminated with TCE due to computer manufacturing industry which used it as a solvent. Dry cleaners are another common culprit of contamination to the

To add a data point, I recently had a grandparent who died with Parkinson's disease. After doing research, it turns out their home was located very close to a Superfund cleanup site from a dry cleaner that operated in the 60's and
