Pair programming - I just want to share my screen and audio with a teammate, so a full video meeting software is over the top bloat. And this https://tuple.app/ is tuple, previous company gave us subscriptions to use and I

On a personal level, that's why I started using them for self hosting. At work, I think the simplicity of scaling from a pool of resources is a huge improvement over having to provision a new device. Currently at an on-prem team and ev

Why would OpenAI buy Replit? My point is, if Sam's model is so great and advanced, it should be able to autonomously code a replacement. Or Cursor, or any of the others.

If OpenAI and Anthropic's models are good enough at coding to make coding agents useful for non-technical employees Replit is targeting, why can't either of those companies use their AI to build a wrapper around their product as g

There was an article here recently about alpha school that mentioned this is how of of its backers made a lot in the aftermath of the dot com bubble - picking up companies with products that happened to implode in the bust. He's not th

Levine is fantastic on all sorts of bizarre financial dealings. Money Stuff is such a good daily read even though I don't work in a financial job

Stock buyback isn't a total scam as it seems, but it does mean "we can't figure out any productive use case for this cash in advancing R&D or scaling our business anymore" which is still pretty worrying

Isn't there one company wide channel? With slack or email, you still need to make a list of people who get the announcement. Slack has been a lot better in my experience for joining a team and looking back at the history

There might also be a high level design page about the feature, or jira tickets you can find through git commit messages, or an architectural decision record that this new engineer could look over even if you forgot. The LLM doesn't ha

Who, on the user side, is asking for this? Even amazon subscribe is still buying you a product you already chose.

Stupid question but does this mess up using alternative OSes? I have a rooted 7" nexus from 2013 that I out lineage on and use for carplay when rentals don't have it installed and have been thinking about upgrading. Will this mess

They definitely aren't as good as they could be, but I have always been able to get stuff done if I reserve a study room. Even suburban libraries are better like that

My mother worked in engineering back in the late 80s until early 2000s and always told me about people who didn't document things because they wanted to be un-fireable. I didn't believe her or take it too seriously until some of t

You're right that it's not a complete solution. The overall process on this team aren't good (we never do a retrospective, ever) and I don't get to decide how we solve #2 and #3. The best I can do is bring things up to d

Most places I've been could have been upgraded with stream of consciousness. It's not surprising that they aren't all perfect, and the one place that was done to a very high standard was properly overdone, but at most places

As much as I'm not an AI booster, it has helped a lot when I hit a wall with poorly done documentation where the related bits I need are scattered all over and even a text search isn't helping me

Way too much documentation is like this. Then again, lots of times asking coworkers about an existing system or a new ticket that's not detailed properly ends up with them saying 30 pages of fluff to me before I can get to the nugget

It's crazy how bad most onboarding docs are for corporate teams. I think it's a great first look the culture and how much of a hassle the role will be. The last three teams I've joined have been brutal with how little was do

First off I do think being a NIMBY about amazon and data centers is fair game, I wouldn't want those either. But I've been to Columbus, and as far as the metro area goes, this is not the highest and best use place. There's a

Leaf is great. Parents have the first model, and I love driving it whenever I'm visiting. Even after the battery degraded to under 90 miles, I was still able to make any drive I needed and recharge at home. Charging infrastructure arou

Basically the same as how dead reckoning your location works worse the longer you've been traveling?

With n-gram it isn't just repeating the exact content of the book back to you the way the book itself does, which is what AI does, it's a statistical overview of the words from many books. Knowing what year use of the word "s

Curious what the driver for nixos and packages over docker was. Docker was the huge step up for me in making the homelab easy to run, update, and recover when things failed. It also made managing services endpoints and ports remote easier t

My parents in the late 80s or early 90s had a computer with some low MB number for storage. Not sure if hard drive or what, but it's wild thinking about how far consumer stuff has come too.

Surprised rail is given a B- when you would think compared America's rail network against China, Europe, Japan etc. its more like a D or lower. Amtrak is good in some regions but decades behind other similarly wealthy countries and eve
