While I'm a rust enthusiast, I do agree that certain languages lend themselves well to particular domains. So a rewrite from Rust to something better suited is fine by me. In fact, while I do work on a rust project, I would not have an

The agent does have to pull some data into the context. The way it usually works is that the LLM will output a tool call, which is just some structured text, that the harness, a software managing the LLM running on your own PC, then process

I do use old reddit on my PC, but unless I'm programming or gaming, most of my browsing is done on mobile. There are extensions to make old reddit mobile friendly, but by default it is a terrible experience. Another example for "y

I kind of get this, but quite a lot of the websites/webapps I use are better off on the web. Imagine that from tomorrow, hackernews is an app. You can't do stuff like open 10 different tabs of it, put it in a tab group, expect it

Also, after a quick look at a few files, the rust version appears to be much more commented. Not sure if that makes up the extra several thousand lines, but surely counts accounts for some of that.

That's not how any other coding harness/agent works. Why confidently comment on stuff you know nothing about?

It will have to be sent through the context again. That's how LLMs work. The only reason to do this is so that Musk has clean training data for his next model. Project setup, popular libraries, CI workflows, etc.

Apparently prompting LLMs is now "survival mode".

If you're relying on asking the LLM "pwease don't delete" then you're already in trouble. This kind of stuff doesn't work with people either and they generally exhibit actual signs of intelligence.

Oh, you can actually. But you have to bring receipts, otherwise it very well could be libel.

My issue with the paragraph is that it doesn't really connect into anything meaningful. It's just saying that Jarred was a beginner. The only connection it has is as a segue into calling Jarred a terrible manager here: > It was

It's not really titled "My Thoughts on the scumbag Jarred Sumner" though, is it? Nor does Jarred's post even mention Andrew by name. Should Jarred's post have mentioned how Andrew kept bikeshedding Bun code style an

Well, first off, it's literally the first sentence of a post which is ~62% about Jared, ~26% about the rewrite itself and 10% closing thoughts. It also sets up Jared as a beginner who apparently never learned. Again, this post never ne

As someone from a cultural background that is considered very direct and blunt, I can say that there is a rather fine line between being direct and being an asshole. This post devolves into a personal attack one sentence in. There was no re

I want to be able to put that CD in my drive 20 years later and have working software. You used to get this. I still have some CDs that I could plug into my computer and (perhaps through Wine) get working software.

I also think Zig has a rough road ahead, but not because of AI or moving to codeberg. No, it's because Andrew isn't really a BDFL. He's at best a DFL. The project is already mostly closed off to external contributors. It kind

The fact that the breakout previews included exactly zero gameplay is so weird to me. It shows that there was exactly zero extra effort put into anything here.

They've actually unimplemented this. CS:GO being a source 1 game meant the maps used BSPs and got visibility checking essentially for free. Various platforms even made it stricter. It was not uncommon to see enemies teleport from behin

Any code you wrote on a React version from 6 years ago will still work the same on that React version today. Let's make that a fair comparison. I get that some people like stability, but that is quite different from going without updat

Is it a fallacy if you've said before that Google is aiming to create a walled garden, Google itself has already started saying it wants a walled garden and they've already implemented several such steps?

I'm glad it works for you, but I have witnessed several coworkers restart their macbooks (some M1, some M2, possibly M3) and I don't think I've ever seen a reboot shorter than about two minutes. At one instance, I rolled over

I think a large part is also how long it takes to restart a Mac. Every so often a coworker has to restart and I could probably restart my Linux (or even Windows) laptop 3 times before they're back on. Kind of reminds me of how slow Win

Using some rough napkin (well, spreadsheet) math, if you ran Qwen 27B for every minute every day at the current price of $0.195/$1.56 with a 2:1 input to output ratio (eg. agentic coding) at the advertised 22 tps it would take you just
