"You're holding it wrong" You've missed my point. I didn't dismiss agents. I did dismiss the industry. I don't need to add more context to a statement that operates on a layer above where context injection woul

That's because - given the flashy page and branding and all - it's irrelevant. The thing is not about code or solving a problem, and we also shouldn't be pretending that it is, because that is what slop, grifters and business

A possible heuristic: Everywhere the LLM made a design decision is probably a place to revisit later. You can ship it now, but to stay in the game you need to stay in the loop. If you need the LLM to explain to you the concept behind someth

Fundamentally though, an agent cannot produce great code, because great code requires intent, which is the opposite of the statistical mean. You will get a solution that works with a proper workflow, but you won't get one that scales o

Yes, that is what I meant. Go use echo to write your code, otherwise you're not a real coder.

I'll be the one to ask the obvious question: What does this mean for compute workloads? Specifically, LLM inference. Does it mean anything at all, or is this purely a games-thing?

A Marstek Venus A 2.12kWh expansion module currently costs 180€ with a bunch of special aliexpress discounts. The whole system is.. not great, but it's even cheaper to have a battery than this post makes it sound.

Man, both that Blogpost and some comments here read like science-fiction. Specifically, creative writing driven by nerds dreaming about a future, without proper grounding in reality, constraints and all that stuff. Which is kinda ironic giv

It also fundamentally makes no sense to do that, because the moat is just me breaking into their server and stealing their system prompt. Why would I pay them money? For which scarce resource? Makes no sense. IP law but funhouse mirror. And

As long as somewhere in the flow of money, there's a fleshy human, there is leverage. So I wouldn't worry about this too much. They just write that so that you feel defeated and helpless facing the inevitable, but it is very much

How does (the unfounded claim of) "everyone is doing [X]" make "we probably shouldn't be doing [X]" "nonsensical"? Sounds unconvincing. Can you elaborate further?

Ayy, finally, a human response. And it's an appeal to authority/seniority. Can you just.. not? The intended purpose of the tool is perfectly clear. There was never any confusion about it.

Snake oil claude slop. No other words for it. If someone or something is executing code on your machine, you have already lost. Making it _slightly harder_ for it to eventually get your passwords anyway is mostly a performative action. __ B

Okay, so, I did some actual coding with qwen3.8 in the last 2 hours, and if I (let the agent) take the average of all those "mean len" loglines, and let them get weighted by how much happened leading up to that logline, it's

Problem with that is I think that it quickly devolves into cargo culting, nonsense and noise. Arguably, what I am doing is also very very close to that, with the only difference being that I am somewhat less of an idiot than the average int
