People are paying hundreds of dollars a month for these tools, often out of their personal pocket. That's a pretty robust indicator that something interesting is going on.

You will get better results if you reset the code changes, tweak the prompt with new guidelines (e.g. don’t do X), and then run it again in a fresh chat. The less cruft and red herrings in the context, the better. And likewise with includin

But you didn't, and they did :) It made me smile, I'm glad they built it.

Just saying "it's sarcasm" doesn't tell you much. It depends on the kind of sarcasm as well as the content. You can moderate comments on your own blog however you'd like.

Pickleball is another great option. I find open-play pickelball to be even more social than bouldering! It's also cheaper. There are courts everywhere these days!

It’s reductive and misleading because autocomplete, as it’s commonly known, existed for many years before generative AI, and is very different and quite dumber than LLMs.

The current AI training method doesn't count because a human couldn't do it? What?

The ethos that compelled PG to write HN in lisp is what matters, not the actual usage of lisp itself. That ethos lives on, in various forms. I also offer you an old saying we have all heard many times: There are 2 kinds of languages: ones t

There are a lot of hurting people out there, and often times people will take their pain out on others, even if they don't mean to. Learning to disengage or set firm boundaries in situations where that is happening is one of the most p

Does this person make your life better in anyway? Why do you put energy into the relationship? Sounds like they kinda suck. Edit: I saw your other comment, I'm sorry to hear that you are doing through such a hard time. I'm coming

What's the best way to use gemini? I'm currently pretty happy / impressed with claude code via the CLI, its the best AI coding tool I've tried so far

Very good post. I’m happy the author has had these important personal insights. Things that I’ve learned (through much difficulty) for myself that feel relevant: * Boundaries: not all problems are mine to fix. It’s okay to say no, even if s

In 1940, a lot of people said it was impossible to build a nuclear bomb.

Fair enough, I'm sorry if I read into your comment too much. The troubles of communicating solely via text with people you've never met... Btw, looks like they did respond, so your effort wasn't in vain.

There’s a million blog posts out there on this topic, if you are curious. Your questions are a bit probing and feel dangerously close to flamebait.

Definitely, test runners are a way to ground the model and give it a feedback loop. Not a silver bullet but can be very helpful.

The next question would then be why are you singled out? The lack of any reason for that makes it seem quite unlikely in my book :)

I think there is a lot to be said about what tasks you give to it, how you describe the work and prompt it, and the iteration / workflow loop. I have a limited intuition for this based off my AI usage the past few years, but I want to

Do you have any writings or materials that show your process in depth? I’m interested in learning from those who know how to really squeeze the juice out of these tools.

There’s a difference between blaming them and being a little annoyed at their callous, semi-aggressive response. No one likes being called stupid. It’s unpleasant and completely unnecessary. I try to not spend time with people like that.

Only use LLMs for half of your work, at most. This will ensure you continue to solidify your fundamentals. It will also provide an ongoing reality check. I’d also have sessions / days where I don’t use AI at all. Use it or lose it. You
