Since no new fundamental AI breakthrough has happened since transformers were invented, it stands to reason that all current applications of AI are just LLMs underneath. RAG is just an LLM plus regular procedural code acting on the LLM ou

If I had to guess, I'd say Apple doesn't like having to share a cut of the revenue with Google. They're used to being the one taking the cut. Apple TV isn't a successful platform so this is a last-ditch effort.

It's common in tech for employees to know things about software that are different from what the CEO says. It's his job to decide when and what to say, not the employee's. I'm surprised the guy didn't already know t

What a relief to know that, since AGI isn't possible, none of these things will be happening. Despite sci-fi stories to the contrary, everything humans do with AI is just humans executing their own volition with tools. There is no desi

It doesn't have any default anything. You can mark constants as immutable in TS and yes you can write currying style functions if you want that. JS supports all programming styles.

JavaScript/TS is a functional language, too[0]. Like Lisp, it supports all programming styles. With JS you have the advantage of being built into the browser with rich debugging tools. [0] https://medium.com/gitconnecte

I do think it helps. Sometimes I write pseudocode as comments if I have a complicated task to break down. It also lends itself well to LLM programming, especially with "reasoning" models where giving a complete picture of what you

That's a huge topic. The short answer is that you can't control the output of the LLM. The idea of RAG is that, by inspecting the output of the LLM, you can use it to trigger tools ("tool calling") that pull supposedly-c

I'm also a career web application developer with a strong interest in AI and I think you're onto something. AI apps are today where web apps were in 1995 and there's lots of opportunity to contribute to new kinds of apps and

And web components (with Lit) give you the shadow DOM and total control over how you program and use HTML elements. jQuery is code smell today. The most popular use case, directly touching a DOM element is built into JS now (querySelector)

We already have tagged template literals in JS (used in Lit web components, for example) which I much prefer. We don't need JSX at all because you can write html`<yourElements/>` and stick regular HTML or custom web componen

This explanation appears to go entirely against how OpenAI says Operator works. It takes a screenshot of the browser and performs clicks and inputs based on that. There is no processing of the underlying "semantic" HTML or CSS.

A few days ago they were talking about making a browser. Smells like it's over for their original business plan. Maybe.

It's better as a feature, not a product. To build another full delivery business would require the same amount of capital and resources that the existing companies spent and you'll be competing with them for a smaller customer bas

I've stumbled on to this approach myself and it works. Instead of asking one question at a time or trying to break down my problem, I try to give as much background and context as possible -- often in the same long paste. I arrived at

Strangely, the story fails to mention Bluesky, which is already owned by a B Corp. (public benefit corporation) and is Mastodon's real competition.

It's too niche. There aren't enough veg only restaurants to build a service around it. One thing that might work is allowing restaurants to indicate veg items when they put in their menus. Then, an individual user of an existing d

An interesting idea but at this pricing it won't be approved by the teams that need it. In software development, for example, it's not unusual to deal with hundreds of cards at once. That puts everyone in your highest priced bucke

So Disney is selling Hulu to Fubo and loaning them the money to buy it? This can't be good. Why would Hulu with nearly 4x the subscribers give it away to Fubo? Just because Fubo sued over another service Disney wanted to start? It make

Even the author doesn't really think Bluesky isn't ready for marketing. They use it for that! One thing this article gets right is that it's a dev-first platform, something I don't see mentioned much but I talk about in
