   Different languages definitely have differently expectations and cultures around this stuff. If an npm package hasn’t been updated in 2 years, I’m suspicious. I’m gonna check the downloads, check GitHub issues and stuff to see kind of probl

   I’ve always heard the first wave of AI was all lisp. Why is that? Just cause it had superpowers over the other languages of the day? I can see why someone would think prolog could bring an AI wave. Even after messing around with it for a fe

   Oh wow I thought this was a simpsons reference to when Mr. Burns has too many diseases, that none of them can take him down. Cool that it's a real thing

   Kinda related, but this reminded me of the guy who made a voice controlled text editing language. It's kinda like vim with your voice. Super cool talk here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcUJnmBqHTY

   The LLM can evaluate any chunk of code at any time and see the result/errors. It lets it iteratively build solutions up, like how a human does. It also lets it verify that everything works before saying “done!” It can even use REPL acc

   I don’t know, I think it might be fundamental. They think in tokens, and )))))))) might look equivalent to ))))))). Just like the strawberry problem. The calva backseat driver extension even includes a specific paren balancer for this reaso

   Was looking for somebody to mention that LLMs are weirdly good at clojure! Have you tried hooking your LLM up to a repl? It’s crazy stuff. Type systems are a great feedback loop, but a LLM with a REPL is something else. Much more dangerous

    For me it’s mostly - the convenience of being in the terminal, where I live - you can use em over ssh - they’re typically made with keyboard usage in mind, which is often an afterthought in a typical browser based UI - other GUI options are

    I would think they would have a real set of cameras for demos, but like in their own office or something. Not pointed at unwitting children. So dystopian

    I made the mistake of buying an 8 GB macbook air m3 a while ago, thinking it would be enough. I wasn't accounting for docker or vscode. It REALLY lags. The vim mode plugin will regularly lag on nearly every keystroke, until I kill ever

    Wow I'm sad I've never seen that before!! From 6 years ago and it perfectly describes this entire comment section

    They added "gw" (amp jump) in 1.1.2 preview! It's just amazing. It was the last thing I needed before totally switching over lol

    Just wanted to mention they added amp jump to helix mode in preview 1.1.2!! Aka "gw" in helix. And it's AMAZING!!! Seems silly but this was the only thing keeping me from fully switching. It's such a snappy editor, and t

    If you want an irresistibly productive usage for clojure, check out babashka. It’s what made clojure stick for me.

    If I could get the equivalent of GPT-4 running locally, that would cover like 95% of what I need an LLM for. Tweak this dockerfile, gimme a bash script. I guess the context probably isn’t sufficient for the agent stuff, but I’m sure more co

    Stage 2 of enshittification. A necessary prerequisite to full enshittification is lock-in, so be on the lookout for it!

    I think it’s more because point-and-click is suited to shooters. Look at thing you want to shoot, click on it. A simple premise that you can layer stuff onto to make a good game.

    I guess I just don’t understand contracts and laws. Your employment agreement can include stuff like “if you say anything bad about us, even to your family in your own home, you owe us $50,000”. What in the world?? I guess NDA’s are like th

    Not totally related to your point BUT I’d like to tack on that lisps and generally repl-friendly languages are in an interesting spot in the LLM-enabled world. The calva-backseat-driver vscode extension runs an MCP that lets LLMs manipulate
