What a shame. It was there for so long that they should have kept it IMO.

Indeed. It reminds me of NNT's anti-GMO advocacy.

Metrics alone don't tell you if a strategy is working in the long term. It was no doubt a highly informed opinion, but still an opinion.

This in the response made me cringe a little: > I wanted to continue with what was working and with what our partners had signed on to distribute. How does he know it was working? He says it so matter of factly. And that’s what this big

Do account execs get a heads up about a shutdown? If not, maybe there wasn't a good reason to mention the account exec by name here.

I looked into the core js author's story and there's nothing off about him to me. He just played a role in the post-install messages being curtailed. https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v9/commands/npm-fund?v

It doesn’t look too great to be honest. It’s quite verbose and gets steps out of order. It starts out with loading a font from Google Fonts. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn_web_developme... Where MD

You don't say that it's an experiment or just for learning how to write a project. You suggest it will be competitive in simplicity or speed. I find this hard to believe. A project based on servo would be more credible. Sure, thos

That’s trivializing deep learning, calling it merely a dataset. It’s something that was grown, not built. It’s patently false to say that models don’t create information. What about AlphaGo? Why is it hard to tell exactly why an LLM arrives

Indeed. It also doesn't have anything like PKCE.

That doesn’t resolve the problem of whether third or fifth is better than fourth. I have yet to be convinced that their wording here shows that they fail to grasp the pace of the development.

The thing is that I think it could be an optimal way of saying it. Should we not put it into context of making a particular LLM? Why count three versions of three LLMs? They made it hard to choose the one that makes up for not having GPT 1.

While I’m sure it’s unintentional, that amounts to nitpicking. I can easily find three to include and pass over the rest. Face value turns out to be a decent approximation.

At the end the article tries to tie this to the importance of looking at code: > He wrote about a peculiar observation: everyone says reading code is important, yet few of us actually do it. This is an approximation of watching screencas

That doesn’t seem to be the case based on the study. And normal for one thing, such as paragraphs of prose, might not translate to another thing, such as a sequence of words in a line of code.

In wit for wasm they call them variants, which makes more sense to me. Enum is kind of an odd name for them. https://component-model.bytecodealliance.org/design/wit.html...

It isn't fresh though. Java has improved a lot and the benefit of Kotlin is dubious. Maybe it has a more PHP-like feel to it. No accounting for taste at that company.

I'm glad you see the logic behind my comment, as discomforting as it is. I get the disdain for non-creative people , but with that comes putting creative people on a pedestal. The only way to fight this absurdity seems to be with more

It has virtual brushes. This predates AI by quite a lot. It's important to be careful to call it a virtual or simulated painting but perhaps not all the time. Maybe every single instance it's brought up but not always repeated – i

To me it’s like Zed, element.io, and even GitHub, only perhaps it won’t be as successful. They took a space that was carved out by much of the Linux community as something that ought to be open source: the editor, IRC, and project pages (re
