My mom is performing the Kodaly next weekend–weird timing to see this on HN!

You nailed it, I have the same criteria. I ended up with a Cyboard Imprint but the Advantage 360 seems excellent as well.

Which organizations that you mentioned (Heroku, Shopify, Basecamp, Github, 37 Signals) have been dismissed? This post seems focused on Ruby Together & Ruby Central and struggles within.

I can't tell what point you're trying to make here?

Do you seriously think it's a matter of doing math in a vacuum? The issue is pirating books, using them as inputs to math which is then resold as an LLM without compensation to the authors who have clearly copyrighted material. I can&#

This implies training models is some sort of right.

> It's rare to see people that still don't believe LLMs can do anything at all nowadays. I don't think the original comment you responded to made this specific point.

I'd suppose it depends on things like your vocabulary level, if the content you're reading is your first language, if you're reading more niche things, etc.

I'm begging all the React haters to read the actual link (it's CSS transform).

by dbalatero 1y ago
Yeah, if they read the actual link, the issue is CSS transforms on each line of code, not React.

no, it sounds like the author has encountered this enough that giving the same feedback over and over manually is a waste of their time. hence the post: "please read this, read your own pr, and get back to me when it's in a better

I think I know what you're saying, and it sounds like an interesting thing to attempt. Some sort of universal API that feels really good to make structural edits to code documents would be excellent.

I agree, I'm a neovim maximalist myself and think these things are worth setting up - good autocomplete, Telescope/fzf-lua, LSPs, etc. To each their own though, I'm sure I could still be effective with Zed's setup as wel

if you haven't checked neovim out, the Lua based config is really nice and easy to grok these days. 10x better than classic vimscript!

I agree with your comment, but I also chuckled a bit, because Neovim _is_ a fast changing ecosystem with plugins coming out to replace previous plugins all the time, and tons of config tweakers pushing things to the limit. That said… one do

I've seen comparisons to gambling before (activating reward centers, sometimes it pays out big, etc), but couldn't find the article when I searched.

I got work to pay for Kagi out of my education budget, in case anyone else has that option available.

You're right, we only have centuries of humans doing hard things that require ongoing practice to stay sharp. Ask anyone who does something you can't fake, like playing the piano, what taking months off does to their abilities. To
