So i assume this post is just a bit of writing out frustration, but i'm always hoping that "AI can't do it" posts to include examples. A list of "Examples AI will silently fail at" would be a lot more interesti

I think we'd be talking past each other in terms of what "planning" means, but i wrote this anyways: You're wrong about what i mean with delegating architecture to coding agent. I'll let the coding agent take the fi

Oh i maybe was a bit too short worded. I meant specifically that they framed this as if they discovered a previously unknown class of bug and are now sharing it with the world to help save us. I liked that they shared it - but the tone was

I'm not talking about enhancing claude either. The article opens saying they already implemented read/write for files. My comment is saying putting tools for planning in an agent's context is less useful than you might think.

I've tried most form of planning - from the basic AGENTS.md guide to keeping ./dev/ plan files, todo list tools, sqlite db with both minimal and extensive tracking, etc. None of them have been worth it. A year ago the models

Well this is rather dumb to the point I dont understand why they wrote this article? This line of attack is so extremely obvious and variants of it have been discussed so many times as to be effectively the quintessential example of what no

He's right that its all going to pop dramatically and catastrophically for some. But having read a bunch of his stuff, there are two things he's just plain wrong about and they make his martyrdom tone too grating. - His own object

I think for most people paying a bit of attention it was gradual - relatively speaking. I.e. a bunch of "holy shit" moments spread out of months. First uptick for my own usage was copying in a ~800 line rust file into ChatGPT befo

I like it. The one thing I'd absolutely add is a color difference between the background and the circle, or at least something to indicate the horizon which would provide a better sense of orientation.

Assuming you have a SOTA model - the thing I'd teach them is minimalism. - Minimal tooling - Minimal system prompt - Folders + files + text AI driven development has turned the whole development job into knowing what questions to ask

I believe the idea of a wet-bulb temperature event has reached just enough people that a "nobody saw it coming" would be very poorly received.

Drowning has essentially nothing to do with water and everything to do with a terribly designed ability to get air into your lungs. If you'd do a retrospective and ignore how AI has shaped expectations and a company's culture to a

In a complex situation this is perhaps the most idiotic reductive thing you could think. But if you must insist on being reductive than i'd go with: People could feed kids, but they can't afford to give their child a lifestyle sim

This post hits the nail at a bit of an angle. The AI agents are great, and any expert can prompt them correctly to get good code. LLMs occasionally pick wrong patterns and start digging a hole, but this is why an expert is required. The cod

I'm glad somebody called it out. This post reads like "the case against measuring hours" and then trying to vibe-splain how time works in general relativity. abuseofnotation seems a bit of an understatement. More like abuse o

I wasn't going to comment, but this is just too dumb on too many levels. The hotline is not the way to deal with suicidality - suicidality is a longer process and something you can ask your GP about and most help is covered under most

So this is a tangent on a thought i had after reading the title, but it might be a cool idea that I'll not have the time to do anything with so feel free to use it: Human checkable fingerprints for pubkeys/hashes dont really work.

I actually think there is a second level to this. Yes HTML will get you most anywhere, but I found that letting the LLM define its own language is also unreasonably effective. Currently working on a dumb little mobile game with isometric vi

The rule of thumb is simple: Consider if your ID can contain a timestamp besides a random value. The answer is usually yes. UUIDv7 is fine. If you've spend the time to really work through the whole problem and have written down a proof
