Wow, that's... unexpected. In the video they were saying "merging" but I guess reality shows something else. So he's pretty much gifting a nice amount of OpenAI stock to his friend, and also handing over all design respo

No, it's more like knowing the strengths and weaknesses, and if the work is good, accepting, and if not good, directing in the right way. The latter may take some time to learn, for sure, but not that much, and once you know, it's

It's very marmite. I used to hate it when it was vscode's crappy copilot. Now with Cursor and Windsurf, after some onboarding, I find it indispensable. I have used AI for coding for 3 separate roles: - freelancer - CTO - employee

Unity's lawyers continue killing the company, not a big surprise there. I used to work there, proud of their technical accomplishments, ashamed of pretty much everything else.

I like that there are so many different approaches to generate worlds. One, few, or eventually all of them will stick. We have been playing around with something similar at Greybox too, where we ask Claude 3.7 to create Lua scripts to defin

Wow, so if you don't fall in line with the demagoguery, you'll be thrown out, probably to be replaced with someone who does, or it'll be rinse and repeat until that happens.

It'd be interesting if the rest of the model had to align itself to the universe where pi is indeed 4.

How should it respond in this case? Should it say "no go back to your meds, spirituality is bullshit" in essence? Or should it tell the user that it's not qualified to have an opinion on this?

Supabase feels less flexible. Also it tries to do many other things so I don't think they can focus fully on the db side. However it still works well enough for production so cannot complain too much. I haven't done benchmarks for

A lot are paying, including me for multiple projects. They have a pretty good offering. I used to use them for dev and prod, but now using neon for dev. Supabase still for prod. I had switched from mongo to supabase. I may switch to neon fo

Perfect timing, I just added Lua integration to our product ( my bio has details ) for an AI agent to run code on. Cannot wait to see Lua come back in full force. I had used it ages ago to build World of Warcraft plugins, then came back wit

What's the latest and the best so far? Are they using GPGPU? Is quantum computing there yet, or would it help? Heuristics and sampling?

Heh, I was actually building one. Haven't considered the battery... Are the web audio APIs bad, or are you forced to use the CPU? I guess with webgpu it may be easier?

There's a way to download all of your Alexa requests. I recommend it to everyone. It was interesting and horrifying to get literally all of them, from day 1. I noticed how tired I sound in the mornings or evenings. I started understand

I currently pay around $200-300 to a combination of Cursor + Anthropic through the API. I have both a full time job and freelance work. It pays for itself. I end up reviewing more than manual coding, to ensure the quality of the results. Fu

It's still very easy to catch up on the latest trends and developments and what people are building and talking about. Even though most of us kinda hate it, it does have weight.
