This is an extremely good insight and piece of advice. Already we're starting to see what looks very similar to a "frontend" and "backend" kind of development model similar to the previous tech generation. While the

Is there a way to try this yet?

Lately I've been experimenting with using TDD approaches for LLM assisted coding. There is a little bit on YouTube and some research papers on this topic. But most of it relates to how well you understand the test suites for the given

Exa is trying to do this. I've found some sort of interesting stuff this way but it honestly doesn't feel quite good enough yet to me. https://exa.ai/search?c=all

If you follow someone you're still more likely to see their posts. You just see other stuff too in the "For You". It's algorithmic, and at times annoying - but contrary to the article is still very valuable in my experie

Architect the program yourself in your head. Then use gpt to write one function at a time. For obscure libraries, paste in documents directly to the context window and give links to example GitHub repos. Paste errors in to troubleshoot as n

This study uses a version of ChatGPT that is either 1 or 2 versions behind depending on the part of the study. It cracks me up how consistent this is. See post criticizing LLMs. Check if they're on the latest version (which is now free

Lots of good tools for this. One way to do it completely free is OBS + Kdenlive. The interface for both leaves something to be desired but both open source and have all the features you would want (though sometimes buried in menus)

I find that the key is in working in the right size abstraction. If you ask gpt-4 to write whole apps for you, it usually can't get there. But if you architect the app in your head you can ask it to build it out one function at a time

GPT-4. I use this for learning things but also if there is a clickbait article with information I want to know, I paste in the entire article and ask my question. I used to just abandon clickbait and accept not finding out, now that never h

Startup time! Has its own tradeoffs but you get to go compete with the system that is maddening. Imagine them trying to run a race against people who are actually trying? That's why startups are able to win against huge companies with

Nah it's just as goofy now if not goofier. What's hard to remember is that back in 2013 nobody really knew or cared who Travis was yet. You can never predict the successes. I guarantee around that time there were much more "s

Poker. Game of skill. Looks like gambling from the outside. Rich people use it as a way to socialize while wasting money. Not dependent on any technology. Has existed for hundreds of years (Lindy). Practice enough to win at an average table

This article feels fairly naive to me. One possibility is that the EU is doing what is written on the tin and executives and companies are foolishly misunderstanding. Another possibility is that reality is more nuanced and that executives a

Long term, my plan is to buy a cheap EV like a Bolt as well as a powerwall or other home battery in a part of the world with good sunlight and build a nice little solar farm to power the house and car. Solar panels just keep getting cheaper

For context, Elon's comp was also put to a vote in an annual meeting, passed, a minor shareholder (9 shares) filed a lawsuit and here we are. In the case of Tesla in Delaware at least, the court did not optimize for shareholders wishes

AI probably feels crowded but it's really not. Still very early for mass adoption and even within tech it remains somewhat niche.

Seems like there is an opportunity here for a workflow involving clipboard management and GPT-4V or another vision model.

We're currently going through the largest tech downturn since the dot com bubble. It's not you, it's the market. Tough for everybody who is looking right now. For the first time in 20 years there are more applicants than jobs

I don't think this is the only factor but I suspect part of it is because GPT-4 had access to better datasets. After ChatGPT came out a lot of the places GPT was assumed to be trained on (reddit, twitter) started closing their APIs. Th

It's pretty wild how baked into modern life insecure 2fa is. Especially with the prevalence of sim swapping. I more or less model most auth as trivially insecure at this point. You think about someone like Vitalik of all people, if he
