We are probably talking past each other. I'm not proposing doing any exponential backoff retries, or even retries at all for internal services. In my mind, the retries with exponential backoff and jitter belong only on the end-client(V

Imagine the stories the currently ICE-detained could tell. Hunted in the streets like animals and stuck in cages, with no right to due process. Sure, not as bad. Woohoo.

Claude comments often contain the whole iterative chain of decisions that led to the current state. Useful for the LLM to know the "why", but not something a human would do, unless it's a very critical and confusing part of t

The typical ceiling for these is around a minute.

Why? You can retry, but there is nothing wrong with increasingly waiting slightly longer if we fail many times.

DRM for your eyes == garbage idea.

Yes. It's about discrimination and dehumanizing everyday cruelty.

I swear, Thanos-snapping half of any LLM readme will always be an improvement.

I've lost all interest in editors. It doesn't matter to me anymore in which one I'm inspecting the clanker output from.

I assure you, there is no such thing as a book club at my job, especially not one focused on technical writing :)

As a whole? None. If you only need git hosting, do whatever wherever you want.

I'm done listening to smart people proposing fixes for my dumb code. Either I'm not smart or disciplined enough to make it work, or my colleagues are not. Mostly both.

Is there an .MD version? For, uh, reasons :)

That's not what the agent suggested. The user asked for a fix, and I guess the AI blindly complied.

It's really cool they could afford a whole rack with $2B, considering today's prices. Must have some serious connections. Anyways, I wish them a speedy and successful acquisition.

Not trying to be an ass, but the core git principle is decentralization and local copies. Maybe it will help to return to a more git oriented workflow instead of a GitHub oriented one.

They're building a space garage or something.

I don't think anyone doubts that it benefits the company.

Is this a rebranding of the Google Cloud Storage bucket Elon was uploading all our repos to? ;)

If that wasn't the case, DOGE would have found any waste worth looking at. It was not for a lack of motivation or a lack of cut-throat pursuit, consequences be damned.

AI-Agents are hammering GitHub. Whatever the actual increase in productivity may be, the commits, clones, pushes, action runs, etc. are skyrocketing.

Many things are possible while still being very stupid.

If Elon wants to offer space-twitter, he still needs to abide by the rules of the country he is offering the service to. Unless he's offering it to the aliens orbiting his magical lawless space data centers.

You might be conflating hyperscalers with frontier ai labs. Microsoft, Amazon and google will be okay if openai and anthropic burn to the ground. They can and do host open-weights models.

I never understood this. What kind of special whitespace requirements do people have?

One man's starter workspace is another man's context pollution. There is danger in over-fitting the agent. Fast release cycles require frequent model switching, sometimes to another provider altogether. In the end, it's hard

How did all of the capitalism get to be JavaScript? Let's keep ourselves a bit grounded. No, payments certainly don't run on JavaScript, unless all you know about payment systems are the web frontends.

Ridiculous. If anything, the time of the ubiquitous JS might be over when anyone can generate native UI without electron.

Higher demand for 5090's did not make them cheaper, because Nvidia got much higher margin products to focus on.
