What type of AI coding? I do not have the attention span to sit there and let these LLMs just churn away. I have to be the one doing the typing or nothing will be accomplished. I tried playing Claude Code and Codex a bit. While impressive i

My employer has the weirdest code reviews I have ever participated in. I kid you all not, we all get around and it's like team-wide show and tell. We basically demo anything cool we learned, found, etc.. There is actually no real revie

I've had bad results with this method. If I ask any model to review the same code ten times, then I will get ten different answer.

What about quality? Being cheaper and faster, while great and all, is less valuable than quality to me.

That was one the major criticism I have of my CS degree's program. Perhaps the knowledge I wish for is not truly CS in the mathematical/theoretical perspective, but I believe it would have been absolutely valuable to learn.

That there are bugs in it. That would be the only thing I can 100% guarantee.

I do, and I love mine. I program relatively low-resource software, so power is not an issue.

I am somewhat disappointed in Sam Harris being on the list. I do not agree with him on every topic, but I did enjoy some of his views back when he was more about philosophy than politics. I do find Ted Cruz being involved to be absolutely h

Why is reading for pleasure always placed on some sort of pedestal? I would argue that what is being consumed is more important than the medium of consumption. I am not trying to say there is little value in reading, but I have always found

Historical learning methods were not far off from that. Many of the greats we remember likely heavily benefited from private tutoring and mentoring, not busywork, rote memorization, and arbitrary assessments.

Perhaps it was merely my degree or program, but I do not feel like I learned a lot more than surface level knowledge. I have an accredited degree in computer science. But what does that truly even signify? For example, even with my 10 years

I needed the structure more than anything. Nothing I learned in university was some secretive knowledge. Anyone could buy the same textbooks and learn the same materials. However, I am not one of those people. I lack(ed) the self-discipline

I just do things manually and ask LLMs to check my work. That seems to be working great for me. I had the most Russian of Russian bosses when I was in college. My first day on the job he so eloquently stated, "I am not your mother. Do

It is wild and utterly tragic to me how much the landscape of warfare as changed so rapidly. While I adamantly support the Ukrainian defense against Russia's invasion, I still cannot help but feel empathy for many of the soldiers on bo
