I just fundamentally do not agree with you. If you are editing AI generated text to "better reflect your ideas and voice" you are still not using your ideas or your voice. There's no 'thinking process in action' if

I disagree, the problem is the tool. Generating text instead of thinking about what text to use explicitly is not writing, and it's not worthy of someone else reading it. Fundamental to exchanging ideas is discovering which ideas shoul

PE doesn't create anything. They extract from margins. It only works by having more capital to begin with. Otherwise you wouldn't see consolidation where it shouldn't exist.

No, it's money. Younger generations have less money. It's not more complicated than that.

He was a rich asshole who personally wronged everyone on the jury in his first season, and carried by luck/ignorance/Parvati Shallow in his second season. Which stats capture that?

Russell is famous for playing a different game than survivor, and then getting mad that he wasn't rewarded for it. His game didn't really collapse, because he was never going to win.

Using an artifactory instance as the origin is not functionally different from installing something 'willy nilly' from the internet. It addresses a narrow range of threats while predominantly being more reliable and faster than pu

I was just being a bit sardonic because the C++ ecosystem is so fragmented that something like tokio couldn't really exist. It would be one of three executors in boost, abseil, or folly, and you would never see the kind of downstream e

The "C++ community", if it even exists, barely believes in sharing code let alone any library being "dominant." They'd have to agree on a build system first, after all. But honestly that's a mischaracterization

Not even an analog: https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/unstable-book/compiler-flags/... It's worth pointing out though that just tracing function calls isn't good enough for the kinds of stackless corou

I meant alternatives to connecting your TV directly to the internet. As in "why would you ever connect your TV to the internet?" is a stupid question - "because I want to watch things on the internet." And it's not

The alternative is inconvenient and more expensive. And most people simply don't care.

> You and the AI agree on an outline or other high level representation, then the LLM expands it into a document. This is just noise generation. If anyone is meant to actually read the document it should be written by you.

This is why solfege aka "movable/relative do" is better than chromatic naming for theory. Because "a fifth of what?" is trivial - its the fifth named pitch relative to another named pitch. And almost all modern musi

This is a gripe of mine, and I will admit it is weak. Changing a segfault to a panic with a stack trace is an improvement in developer experience. It does not make better software. The advantage of automatic strategies to mitigate memory sa

Classic latency vs throughput problem. 10s of GB/s of disk bandwidth doesn't help when my problem is serialized durable writes.

For stuff like niche value optimization sure. For practical arithmetic code, nah. Like with this bug, all that changed is that garbage data in gives the user an error that they tried to process garbage data. Adding a new type doesn't m

I mean, a lot of us have paid GitHub a lot of money for CI on private repos. And when GitHub themselves encourages the insane behavior of vibe coders and agents instead of just charging or rate limiting access of bots, it's hard to giv

Something that frustrates me about that discourse is that people argue about the mere existence of dependencies but all 'supply chain' (1) attacks are issues over when dependencies change . Dynamic systems are harder to reason
