There is a lot of money being poured into figuring this out[0]. My bet is on agents. They work, right now, and it’ll only get better. [0]: https://x.com/omooretweets/status/1760000618557735289

Using ULID has probably the best ROI among all the architectural decisions I've made. Generating IDs on the server before insert is helpful, and not just for distributed system issues. Issues to think about before you switch: - The ID

Nothing fancy. Just register for Claude, and talk with Sonnet 3.5 like you talk with coach or therapist, no prompts needed to begin. I got hooked after a few messages. It’s unbelievably good. GPT4 is not even close for this type of tasks. I

I’ve assigned Claude 3.5 Sonnet as my coach/assistant/partner and it’s unbelievably useful. I call it “rubber duck debugging for life on steroids.”

Just wanted to add a note for the roadmap: Please make sure it can compete with Safari on battery usage, so those who are mobile on a Mac are not left behind. Best of luck!

In my experience there are different levels to burnout, with each stage is progressing towards a full-blown one like you described. Agreed that I also wouldn't trust any self-reported burnout unless the person has experienced a full-bl

It's fun if I want to have fun on the site. Not when I'm trying to read a technical article. I left half way through.

I'm in the LLM-wont-lead-to-AGI camp. But it's a game changer. Software development. Education. Marketing. Writing. It's already generating millions of dollars of value. Considering the speed things are improving right now, i

Before reading the article I somehow immediately assumed this will be about adding AI features. I wonder why. Next 5 years will be much more interesting than the 2 years before.

Safari extension works half the time at best. Sometimes it doesn't start working without restarting the browser after it crashes. Cancelled my sub last night after many years. I don't mind the price, or electron or anything, I jus

For people not accustomed to the style of Whitney, you can read various HN threads from the past to learn more about why he writes programs the way he does. It’s deliberate and powerful. Here is a recent one: https://news.ycombin

Consider yourself lucky! During the "stain gate" incident where the anti-glow coating came off by itself ruining the display, I went to the authorized repair shop to get the free replacement. Apple rejected my repair because the s

Full blown GraphQL is hard to properly support. It needs a lot of developer time to get everything correct, as stated in the article. However, you can go very far with a simpler version of it, just by allowing clients to specify what fields

Coming across that early in my freelancing career, I create indexes on foreign keys by default now via auto-configuring it with ORM. It's almost always needed, and it's easier to remove them if they somehow become a problem.

I love passion projects! A complete text editor, written in a language that is also by the same person. This requires dedication. Who cares if it's maintainable by others or if it's a worthwhile effort, its aim is clearly stated a

This is a somewhat solved problem by hotel reservation platforms. Responsibility to notify the platform about availability changes are on the property owners. They pay some fines or (some other form of cost) if they have to cancel a reserva

Point me to a laptop that goes to sleep properly when I close the lid and wakes up properly when I open it, every time, and I'll try switching, again.

It will be much faster to try it out rather than waiting for internet strangers to answer for these type of questions. I would setup $10-$20 VPS and test max performance then extrapolate from there.

I used Firefox before safari because of uBlock Origin, but performance and battery life were big problems. There are ad blockers in Safari gives me the same end result as uBlock Origin.

Main selling point for me is productivity. Performance benefits are just icing on the cake. Being explicit about types allows the IDE and platform to help you write & refactor code, allowing your brain to work on the actual problem inst
