Those books were already scanned and it adds nothing. A useful skill describes some specific tool or RAG info your app needs. There's no value add in just making an overly long prompt which is what your skill will do. In realty, skills

For the same reason kids learn to count with blocks instead of digits. Visual learning is it's own channel, apart from audio or kinetic learning or even text processing. By drawing a diagram, you're engaging visual and kinetic lea

Howdy from Texas! I built this app because IPTV is incredibly cool (thousands of legal, free channels from around the world) but poorly understood and hard to access outside of the small communities that know about it. TV Explorer aims to f

What a shitty way to die.

This is a good thing. Native was always a place where gatekeeping and proprietary crap sprout and thrive. It can't die soon enough. Doesn't all have to be Electron, but web tech for the win and force everything to the browser unle

This is cool! I made #9 on the leaderboard on my first try.

That's decidedly not what the article or I said. This only works with carefully controlled context and that context replaces much of the previous SDLC. No one is talking about one-shot or even vibe coding. As for agile, it was always

I appreciate your Boomer humor and I get that you don't want to dampen the enthusiasm for these new tools. Nor do I, really, but I think it's disappointing to write an article with so little depth and perhaps unwise to not include

This is an article that's so ahead of its time that it's likely to be ignored. The TL;DR is that true agentic development doesn't improve the software dev lifecycle, it throws huge chunks of it in the trash. When your conte

An article about the "most fun" with a new toy ends after the first prompt response? It might not be as fun after it makes a terrible mistake, breaks something of yours, spends your money, or runs up your token bill. Folks are re

People can tell their story for themselves with these tools, but making a story or a game that's compelling for other people is an entirely different skill, and one you don't get from AI. Like other UGC tools (Roblox, for exampl

Good question! I'd say it happens at the app level first because the context of the OS is too big a surface to start with. But a RAG app for a specific vertical could have enough context to dynamically draw a custom UI for every user,

by dtagames 8mo ago
It's a good argument. Canned UI and pre designed user interactions are already done for. We can't sit around and think of what a user might want to do or how to present that. Those concepts have to be fluid and chosen by the user

I don't think you'd get a reply. The TOS is clear and questions about it are legal questions. If you're so inclined, you could hire a lawyer to talk to their lawyer -- or even to answer your question about if it's a TOS

Hackers do quasi-legal stuff and publish it all the time. It's a part of the hacker ethos. But it's risky and if you want to do legit business under your brand or identity, not recommended.

While the definition of intelligence is speculative, the way that LLMs work is well known. They don't apply any thinking or reasoning at all. It's not even conceptualized or attempted. Instead, they predict the most likely respons

Consoles don't allow mods and trying to get your Switch 2 to run one would very likely be violation of TOS, for which they can and do brick devices.

Two things being overlooked here. First, buying and scanning books for AI training was judged legal , not illegal, according to the article. Second, destructive scanning is a cool and useful service. I've used it myself to turn old bo

The problem is likely not the SVG aspect. It's the fact that LLMs don't have any real cross-training between visual concepts and the syntax that produces them. We have this problem with CSS, too, which LLMs are notoriously bad at.

It's really possible to build desktop apps with browser tech now, the holy grail for so many years. Proof is in something like Photoshop for the Web. Amazing.

The past tense phrasing of the title is perfect. And don't miss this gem of a sentence: From its earliest days, surveillance has helped minimize capitalist dysfunction by regimenting labor, stimulating consumer demand, satiating Wall
