I'm definitely not an AI skeptic and I use it constantly for coding, but I don't think we are approaching this future at all without a new technological revolution. Specifications accurate enough to describe the exact behaviors ar

I think the main point is that LLMs are pretty good at following existing patterns and conventions. If you setup your skeleton in a way it is familiar to you, reviewing new features afterwards is easier. If you let the LLM start with the sk

I'm still using the touch bar MBP. For doing web work using vs code, it works very well. You start having problems when an heavy compilation is required, e.g. Android / iOS builds

Claude is definitely tech only. Gemini is the only real competitor to OpenAI in the consumer space: they already have the consumer eyes on their products and they have the financials to operate at a loss for years. They are well positioned

I think it depends on the task. How bad it is if put of 200+ conversations, a couple of those are not exported correctly? Not much honestly. If I verify some of those and they are ok, I would see no reason to keep verifying all of them.

The human in that case is not "so slow", but at the current state it is slower than an LLM as simple as that. The difference comes in confidence that the solution works and can be maintained in the future, but in terms of purely m

Yes, but you need this information once, maybe twice a day, instead all smart devices tend to present it to you constantly. I have a pixel device, and by default I have the weather on both lock screen and home screen. Every morning I receiv

Yes, but it's the kind of information you need once a day on average and you are good to go. Instead you find it placed on your smartphone homescreen, on the smartwatch, on the home dashboard, on a notification you receive every mornin

That is why I said "also", it should not be the only factor. The conversation was moving between two possibilities only: either collect bug bounties or sell on the black market. I believe most (again: most, not all) security resea

The language itself was not invented for the purpose: it was the language spoken in Florence, than adopted by the literary movement and than selected as the national language. It seems like the best tradeoff between information density and

I was honestly surprised to find it in the first place, because I assumed English to be at first place given the simpler grammar and the huge dataset available. I agree with your belief, other languages have either lower density (e.g. Germa

It baffles me how much the discourse over native apps rarely takes this into consideration. You reduce development effort by a third, it is ok to debate whether a company so big should invest into a better product anyway but it is pretty cl

Yes, the model runs in C, you just provide the model weights to the program. The main advantage is that you don't need the python interpreter to run the program. While not revolutionary, it is definitely not trivial and its main purpos

The problem with jQuery is that, being imperative, it quickly becomes complex when you need to handle more than one thing because you need to cover imperatively all cases.

It's not about being closed to other languages, it's about being economically pragmatic in many, many cases. As shown in the article, you can build ONCE an app that loads in milliseconds by just providing an url to any potential c
