Heuristics and common sense intuition are quite obviously not the same thing. You don't have to posit that scientific breakthroughs come from hunches, you can actually cite examples from books or Wikipedia :D. There are plenty! Again,

The natural numbers, sure. Zero may have been invented several times, but that in no way makes it intuitive. Uncertainty about its validity as a number lasted from the Greeks through to the medieval period. Yes, I'm aware that incremen

Zero scientific and technological breakthroughs throughout history have been based on common sense intuition.

Hold the AI, just give me a zen/Vivaldi like autohiding vertical tab stack and we're good.

Would you mind elaborating on where exactly the boundary between vibe coding and AI assisted coding lies?

Incredible how much higher the bar is only seven years later

This is not accurate. I've seen CEOs under 6ft wearing platform shoes do a perfectly good job of walking about looking important.

Case 3: nothing changes, the people who are currently getting good at directing LLMs get pretty good at directing LLMs, the people choosing to do things the old way get or remain good at that, the job market adjusts salary expectations for

Completely agree. My first semester of university was straight up hazing, which at the time felt like crap. The consequence though, was that every single person who stayed on the course actually cared about being there. Staying motivated fo

Would it be so hard to ad a VM with configurable directory mounting to claude code? This is my setup and it's been great.

Presumably you could decode the chain of thought from the latent representation though.

I really appreciate all the honesty here.

This tracks with my observation that upper management types in essentially every domain are pampered assholes who haven't interacted with the real world in decades, if ever. Hell yes a chatbot is going to have better judgment.

Neither can I, if I'm being honest.

No, both of these things can happen in parallel. The suggestion is that a 1T model could be made to run on cheap consumer hardware of the future.

Genuine question, what work has Paul Graham done that can be classified as 'great'?

This begs the question of what the fundamentals really are. There are a bajillion bootcamps and learn-x-in-a-weekend books out there, most of which seem to focus on getting you familiar with basic syntax rather than teaching the how and why

It's an open issue from 3 years ago, that has potentially serious implications and an easy fix.

I hate weird bash tricks with a passion. The extent to which the script author gets to feel smart and efficient is exactly the extent to which the future reader of the script gets to feel like an idiot.

Yep, on rereading my comment I totally failed to make this clear. Cheers.

A modern terminal emulator like Ghostty or Kitty can render images, even over ssh. And a tui editor like Neovim or Helix works over ssh just fine. If you need something more interactive, open a Jupyter or Marimo notebook. Working on a clust

After the all the noise surrounding the forking of the Zig compiler in order to speed up builds, I'm really surprised that this isn't the top comment. The fact that a one-man team achieved 1s build times proves pretty conclusively
