pimpl helps more since its trivially implementable in existing codebases while modules are a much bigger pain.

One thing that most LLMs do in their UIs are way too small fonts and too much information density. For example, the "max pts" text has no reason to be this small, there is easily enough space to the left.

If with "production software" you mean large pieces of software I'd generally agree. I personally like Zig but I'd never write a huge 200k loc project with it, I see it more fit for low level stuff like small embedded de

Maybe its just bad memory but I feel like 5.3 was the best version in terms of token usage and code quality. 5.5 works better but it just eviscerates tokens.

hey, honestly I personally wouldnt mind "unusual" english or some weird sentences. Obviously using AI to proofread and give suggestions is great use of it and I dont see a problem in that. Not a native speaker either so I can defi

Very much this. I really dislike the somewhat corporate and characterless sounding tone of AI. I really liked the part where he tried to get it into upstream emacs, most of these type of projects never even get there. But yeah things like &

I think all these comments here are kinda talking past each other. It all depends on the amount of duplication and the complexity of the abstraction. Like you said, no generic advice is possible that clearly separates it into "abstract

It's weird. For me the problem stems from how society uses AI, not from AI itself. I personally had totally positive experiences in my job but seeing people using ChatGPT like some magic truth machien is scary.

What I don't get is, this makes it sound like applications can have peer to peer connections "on their own" but where does this actually work. If I have control over the whole device I might as well use a vpn, if I don&#x27

Is there anything to suggest these increases are reflecting the increased baseline price of RAM, GPUs, etc? I mean don't get me wrong, this for sure is a factor but like others said, other services don't see such drastic price h

I very much agree with your 3 points. Rewarding entrepreneurship for example a good thing, but I'm also very much of the opinion that a single person controlling a billion dollars is extremely bad for the society while spreading some o

Yes. You can't buy their high end models without buying lower end ones first.

Exactly my (and my coworkers) experience. AI generally amplifies the skillset, both in the good and the bad. One fantastic usecase for me just recently was writing up a concept for an authentication daemon. With codex this is like a convers

Not an expert on mobile development but I doubt an android app has the low-level access needed to the wifi stack to do this.

Yeah. The real thing that creates pressure is the people applying that pressure if progress is not made. If people act that way the meeting is an effective way to do this on a weekly base instead of letting it languish over month(s). If nob

This is similar to my view. All these "laws" should alwaye be used as guidance not as actual laws. Same with O. I think its good advice to design software so adding features that are orthogonal to other features don't require

What's the problem with SOLID? It's very very rare that I see a case where going against SOLID leads to better design.

My point is practically you don't get the same results unless you use the native APIs the the platform provides. Take my Liquid Glass for example, you simply won't be able to match the look in an electron app in practice. Ofc if t
