Call me crazy, but my guess is that that may not have been able to happen without the decade of experience it took you to get to the Staff level engineering position at a big tech company which has enabled you to gain the skills required to

Amazing to see this article in 2025. Feel like it's 2015 all over again!

The point is, a lot of us aren't convinced reviewing 8 meals made by agents in parallel _is_ producing better food. And it also seems exceedingly wasteful to boot.

Configuring editors, dot files, and dev environments consistently adds value by giving you familiarity with your working environment, honing your skills with your tools, and creating a more productive space tailored to your needs. Who else

Presumably there's a fair amount of additional costs involved in marketing and distribution that aren't accounted for in the production figures and this ends up being a good baseline for a fuller accounting based on industry trend

To be fair, you're probably not an organized crime syndicate looking for targets either.

Using the first 35,000 words is a bit unfair for a rapper such as Lil Wayne who's been releasing work since he was 14. Also I wonder if this is including proper nouns and other references. (I'd think it should, but it's hard

If it's autopilot you could probably also channel the vehicles to specific routes such that they maintain a road like set of channels where they're flying so the rest of us can not worry about random flying cars zooming around our

I'd suspect folk with a terminal first approach probably have much stronger understandings of what is going on under the hood which makes approaching new repositories a lot easier if nothing else. Alternatively, maybe folk who're

I'm very confused. In the picture right at the top of the article, the top of the bell curve is using 8 agents in parallel, and yada yada yada. And then they go on to talk about how they're using 9 agents in parallel at a cost of

There's definitely some cool stuff coming out of it! Is it going to be as world upending as some folk were making it out to be? I'm not sold on that yet.

I've been using two decks, adding 20 new cards a day. https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1631165043 - This is 5000 common Spanish words. Be warned, the pictures appear to have been pulled by some sort of automat

Yea, I check Hacker News most days once or twice. On my work computer only. There's a fair amount of professional relevance. I don't think I've clicked the "next page" button in a decade though. So that sits firmly

Considering we're two years in and everyone's still... talking about chatbots pretty much. Yea, I'd say that's a hell of a gamble. Of course the hardware can probably be repurposed towards crypto mining afterwards, so he

I keep my phones in the other room on silent all day, don't use anything with an algorithmic infinite feed, don't use social media, and blocked all the news websites I could. It's amazing to me how many people can't seem

Thanks for writing this! I'm just getting into futzing with my Jetson Nano and it indeed is an entirely different space. Excited to get into a bit and am bookmarking this guide for when I've got my basic setup going.

I'm still sitting here reading a lot of code generated by it, but sure. Looks a lot like the code I was reading generated by it a long time ago.

Stand up, fight back now... gotta save democracy first sadly. What a thorn in my side it has been to trade one existential crises for humanity for a government that seems actively opposed to doing a god damn thing about it

I get really frustrated when I see it on PRs cause it's such a time sink, super obvious, and so fluffy. So you scaffold this up in 30 seconds but want me to read through it carefully? Cool, thanks.

Absolutely! I plan to slow purchases to the bare minimum as well. Sadly, there's not a ton of competition in the electronics space. And yea, refurbs bolster the market since it increases resale value. That being said, I'm doing so

Ah! But, of course, I will also be slowing my purchasing cycles which means I'm buying less products over my lifetime. I plan to ride my laptop out til it dies, not buy another Apple Watch, ride my phone out until I can no longer use i
