I agree there, but the problem I’m pointing out is you can’t fix a problem you don’t see as a problem in the first place. This type of nonsense from Anthropic isn’t helpful whatsoever.

Don’t worry, locking you into their services will make it impossible to leave! The one overarching success of the Tim Cook era is ruthlessly pursuing consumer lock in at all costs.

Honestly with a tablet I prefer some bezel so I can hold it without touching the screen. I have both a 9th Gen iPad and an M2 iPad Pro, I use the “inferior” one almost exclusively.

That’s the fun part: he’s likely not knowledgeable enough about his own code to know he should be looking for bugs. “It just works!”

The one time I trusted Claude to write a full class - with excessive rounds of prompts and revisions - it introduced a very subtle bug that I would have never made but took a couple months to show up. Fixing the bug required a root and stem

Who said anything about open source demise in general? Wordpress is past its prime, has always been a wrapper over a hideous dogshit codebase, has bad leadership, is in a crisis, and will slowly disappear. It’s natural, and not a big deal.

Precisely, it’s bad architecture not a bad language. You can make bad architectures in any language you like! The only truly bad language is JavaScript. ;-)

It’s entered the utility collapse curve. MySpace still exists but you can pinpoint the plateau and decline. Wordpress will not grow from here on out, it will shrink. Likewise, that “40%” number never says how many of those websites have bee

The goal here is speed, a pre-approval of a specific template means you can attain high velocity in deployment. Even brutalist monsters keep people off the streets, which is where we are now.

The same search engine that also runs a display ads network that incentivizes low quality SEO blogspam has so throughly killed the golden goose they have one more year left of summarizing human content before they fully enter the oroborou

Seems like the issue is less using dicts than not treating external APIs as input that needs to be sanitized.

My point is about supervision. If an engineer making a quarter mill needs somebody over their shoulder to produce, that’s the core issue. If during an afternoon where they have to wait for somebody else, I’d rather they go for a casual walk

Sad state of affairs, people are incentivized to get more papers and citations at all costs, and quality be damned. An AI Winter is not a great an idea, but an AI Autumn may be beneficial. Just have no major AI conferences for ‘25, perhaps

For people making tangential points about tax compliance, no shit. Obviously I’m talking about work environment, not saying I’m cool with tax fraud and embezzlement. The point I’m making is if you want to feel like a Big Boss go ahead and s
