They probably just don't see it worth the extra effort. And maybe they want to keep it in sync with the web UI. It definitely is a fraction of the work these days to maintain three different desktop apps + two different mobile apps + a

Whether it's the government or powerful companies that the government fails to limit, it is still an instance of the US failing its citizens.

The only place I've been where that might happen is rural mountainous Mexico where the "gas station" is a huachicolero funneling fuel into your car from a plastic water bottle next to a construction paper sign with "GAS&

Without more knowledge about the technical aspect, it could be a good thing that they're all so similar. If you tell humans to go from their kitchen to their bedroom, they all stand up and walk the same way. Nobody decides to crab walk

The US has failed its people so badly here. I heard a family member's spam call that used Trump's voice to personally ask for a donation. It made me wonder how many people might fall for that, especially people in cognitive declin

But it's not an "invalid argument" to share your experience. Just like it's not an invalid argument to say you don't like chocolate ice cream. "Just ignore people who reach out to you" and "Just don&#

I don't see how AI needs StackOverflow anymore. It can either examine the ground truth source code to answer your question "How to expire cookies using RoR Devise gem" or it can read docs for you or it can spin up local exper

Sure, at the end of the day you have to do your own research and consider whether any medical professional is under- or overreacting. It's why a second opinion makes sense. I have naturally higher blood pressure such that I'm usua

The 120/80 benchmark isn't lunacy. Most people in the west have issues with hypertension because that's the direction it goes due to the common risk factors. If you're at 135/85, and you're middle aged / y

I had to temporarily use a 1080p monitor, and forcing a higher resolution was the only way to get enough info on screen to do what I needed to do productively despite the blur.

Exactly. Though I was seeing 130 MB PSS when I did the same experiment last year. Not sure if it had something to do with my env (NixOS), but either way it was a turn off since I see 20-30 MB with GTK3 which is about the size of my full-fea

That's better than the GTK4 hello world I tried out last year.

Long ago I added an instruction to my global AGENTS.md that every time the agent asks me something, make it multiple choice that ranks the top options, give a quick trade-off summary of each one, recommend one, and justify it. Over the last

Agreed. The experiment is still in its infancy but the direction is great. For example, I want to be asked about general shapes/categories of commands as they first appear for a project and then my decision shapes future classification

We have this idea of AI software development where a human watches over its shoulder and shouts out things like "use uuidv7 for the id since timing is important" or "use a sum type here to make that bad state unrepresentable&

As opposed to the norm in computing where the average user is expected to just trust rando software, the AI auto-approver that classifies actions the agents wants to take is a huge step up. In fact it might actually be the solution that wor

No, you unlock the ability. I think it's just account age + submitting ratings on existing community notes.

We're pretty far past this if you're using anything close to the sota models. But you could be defensive with a security checklist in agents.md and have adversarial review, if you wanted.

The cool thing is that you can use and adapt the tests of all major third party terminal implementations. Come up with your own invariants (brainstorm them with a smart LLM), and now every third-party test either passes, diverges (due to in

Maintaining a fork seems trivial for an LLM. Replaying each upstream commit against your fork is exactly what even dumb models can do without issue. But at the same time LLMs also let you question why you’re using a dependency if it’s causi

The examples kind torpedo the whole post. > The reviews are irrationally nitpicky, choosing one quibble and making the entire review about that. Somehow the apps deserve an overall one-star rating based on that one factor? Yet OP thinks

I doubt it. If this were a major issue then you'd have to always nail your Rust architecture correctly from day 1 to handle future unknowns, and this isn't the case. More importantly, LLMs are more than capable of figuring out how
