And then "China" (which is actually a bunch of super generous folks at DeepSeek) decides to release it all back to the US under a permissive MIT license. They could've just exposed an API and kept the model to themselves but

Plenty of computer illiterate people abound. They’re delivering your food and keeping the streets swept. There’s more than enough work in the physical world. Your hypothetical Karen will either retrain or fall behind and the world will go o

The ecosystem around these devices is amazing. The data is openly available in ideal formats for sharing. When your workout syncs from your watch to the Garmin app, Garmin ships it to a whole bunch of other places - a whole data pipeline ki

Knowledge work is too broad a definition. There’s immense potential to reduce the “creative drudgery” in work - think background art, music for malls, first drafts of company comms… Some knowledge work has more leverage than other knowledge

Let’s chat about lawnmowers. There was a time when cutting grass was done with scythes, specially shaped swords. All day back and forth swinging the blade to get grass just the perfect length. Swing, take a step, swing. It was backbreaking

Super excited to try this workflow, I’m just getting started with Cursor. Any chance you can share that askai script & how you set it up?

That helps find content to read. I wish it was easier to find out what my friends have been up to without getting them to sign up for some platform they’ve never heard of, then post in multiple places in perpetuity, and move on again when t

Agreed with that and I’d add that it’s about the complexity of the problem you’re solving & thus how easy to communicate the focus areas you want the team moving in among the whole solution space. Post PMF, there’s just way less context

Not mentioned: gratitude that tech CEOs’ vapidity keeps journalists employed.

Nothing new, just amplified by AI. Companies inflate open roles to make themselves look more legit. A bonus is they can trawl for candidates and keep resumes in the back pocket. AI makes this easier so it can be done for less effort so more

The author should really move to Japan if they’re so impressed. Then they’ll get to find out what things in Japan no-one gives a shit about, and the shine will wear off.

It’d be worth comparing your opinion to data, so you aren’t stuck with an unverified opinion.

This is a valid point but lacks proportionality. If some high% of people have a life improvement, a smaller % don’t, and an even smaller % end up obese.. that’s an overall improvement - even though some lives are worse than they’d have been

That’s a sign of not enough granularity. Some folks use it for code and love it, some use it for code and hate it. Writing code is so broad though- are we coding device drivers? Prototyping greenfield CRUD apps? Fixing hairy bugs in 50year

Very interesting outcome. Shows how far it’s possible to get without being idiomatic. You say the docs contain guidance on structuring, high-level constructs, and how to make things idiomatic. It would be an interesting test to hand the unf

Actually, location tracking was added on purpose.. It is capitalism that has been hacked.

For me, slowdowns on a project suck the fun out and turn an evening with a goal into a disappointment that spills over into the next day. It’s a spare time activity so the fun is in the polish, to make it beautiful and amazing. Thanks to th

If you’re “this close” to the finish line, may I suggest putting your finish line goal into Claude or ChatGPT - or if it’s a web app, into Bolt or v0. Ask for it in its final state and prefix with “I want to build a ...” - in other words gi

Agree strongly with your entire comment, but am _definitely_ stealing that last sentence, it was quite a sharp take.
