What is fallacious about it? The claim seems to be that we often try even harder than is required to succeed. By trying too hard, we wear ourselves down, and might even cause us to fail in the process. Therefore, putting effort beyond what

A good read, but it reminds me that people see the programmer as being there to identify when the AI makes an error or a mistake. But in my use of AI agents as a programmer and also for other work. I would say that, while yes, you also have

I admit for a non-tech company I do not know, that's a blind spot for me. I'd want to assume that it would be the same except that they are even less likely to know it's good for their profit and therefore to not properly inv

I might have a different take. I think microservices should each be independent such that it really doesn't matter how they end up being connected. Think more actors/processes in a distributed actor/csp concurrent setup. Thei

Because the learned function to generate binary code is likely more complex than that for Python. I admit I can't say for sure until we try it. If someone were to train a model at the same scale on the same amount of raw binary code as

It's cool, but I actually find it pretty bad as a website. The UX for navigating and all that, it's bad. I was hoping for some innovation in UX which justifies the use of 3D in the website.

I'll have to disagree on Fitbit being better. But for everything else, you literally just said, the handful of AI features are better on Google products... That seldom makes the product as a whole better.

This is treating the LLM like it is the computer or has some kind of way of thinking. But LLM is a "language" model, I'm pretty sure the easier for human to read, the easier for LLM to learn and generate. Abstractions also be
