I've had really good experiences with Grok 4.6 and grok build. I've been playing around with tscircuit and it can write code with an understanding of spacial reasoning, while also importing cad components from different file forma

I love how the list is unironically filled with links to peoples bluesky's. X is a very AI-forward platform with people using it to build the future; Bluesky is presumably filled with old foggies who think 2k lines of code a sprint is

NAFTA is no longer a thing, the USMCA has been in effect since 2020 which handles trade between the US, Canada, and Mexico. The USMCA has no vehicle import cap, however Canada created a separate nationalist tariff to push for Canadian vehic

Presumably, like all things, skills will just become increasingly complex until generating them requires architectural understanding. Also I’m sure there are sufficiently nontechnical people who would be happy to pay $5 for something that j

But "European data sovereignty" is regulatory capture, although it sort of reads like they had a US parent company to attend y combinator and raise money, but are now moving fully to Berlin, which is what they intended from the

What do you mean "not here"? They're looking at video footage of public places, I would not care either. I'm not happy about flock cameras but this is not like he's filling out paperwork for a charge or doing someth

I think he's referring to contracting companies. Cheap software used to be outsourced to India, but it's now getting outsourced to AI. Companies that produce novel things are still hiring, often to manage agents and review output.

I would argue the average code quality of LLM's today is much higher than pre-AI code quality. It's better documented, more readable, and has fewer bugs. There was a brief period where frontier models were still worse than the ave

> if you're trying to minimize labor getting more of the share while preserving existing profit, you reduce overhead elsewhere This is my point, rephrased. Unions argue for workers, thus hurt the overall product. If a union holds a

It’s cool to see rust join C++, C#, and typescript as primary engineering languages. Confusingly there are no tier 2 or 3 languages, just tier 1 at Microsoft

It is the central thesis of unions; unions represent workers, not the product. When you do more for workers (ie making it harder to let them go, striking, increasing benefits, etc) this comes at the cost of the product. But that's just

This is my immediate thought too; feels like the final nail on the coffin for Blizzard. Unions exist to benefit workers at the expense of product, and if they're already not producing leading class games then not being able to fire low

Fair enough, the apostrophe was incorrect. Everything else you said feels a bit ignorant though, if you want to live in a world where women are banned from working that's your opinion but I will disagree with you.

There's an irony those unions have supported the very politicians who brought the Hindus over who request the women be removed. People forget western culture is a unique culture, and could easily be supplanted. As others have pointed o

Ironic, I'm upset that I'm still writing code like it's 2016. I've been pushing hard for AI tools, and I've convinced management that it's a good idea but now they're playing "favorite company" a

Dow/classified projects can still be pretty old school. Our company hasn’t really done much on the AI front yet although I’m pushing hard to change that.

Fascists are, by definition, socialist. You cannot be a free market fascist, because then the party wouldn't have power and the people wouldn't have a shared direction to move. Calling any modern figure on the right a fascist is a

I would not call it irresponsible. If you have a big, long running project you're going to want to develop complex pipelines and build processes to help with development and testing. This will save a lot of time and create a more consi
