I don't think it's possible to be conscious and have no thoughts at the same time. Otherwise, you wouldn't even remember the experience. I think we first need to define what we mean by "thoughts".

IMO, a more logical approach is to let your thoughts flow and simply observe them instead of trying to control them (that never worked for me.)

So, instead of solving problems, you want them to solve the problem of not thinking about solving problems?

Sorry, the text is too vague - what are they building exactly, another tmux? P.S. That custom disappearing scrollbar doesn't look super logical; it doesn't even look logical, tbh.

"China is bad"? I don't know, man. I'm not buying it.

Do you understand every line of code written by everyone else on your team? I doubt it. But if you ever need to work with their code, that's when you might need to understand it. So, treat an AI agent like another teammate.

I think a wiser approach for crossing a border might be to have another phone with regular Android installed on it, so it doesn't look suspicious, and then connect remotely to your main phone. Before crossing the border, you would just

> Why spend years mastering language intricacies when an AI can generate code in any language on demand? You can learn relatively well any programming language in a week. You don't need to master "language intricacies&q

Yeah, I agree, it's really stupid. It's like discussing whether contributors are allowed to use google search, stackoverflow, an encyclopedia, etc.

Good to know, but looks less readable than `if` example.

> result types pessimize code more What does it mean? > They're arguably noisier at the source level too. But they are more explicit, which means there will be fewer bugs in your code.

In theory, a compiler can figure out that you don't need that in some cases.

No problem. I love you.

My gut feeling is that OpenAI tells the truth in this particular case. Yes, of course, they use this story for marketing but it doesn't mean that they are lying.

I watched 8 minutes and feel like my time was wasted. Thank you. Yeah, we always knew how to build reliable software, but it's expensive.

Another article from that substack.com - this website has terrible UI, please stop using it. And I noticed that usually if an author uses substack - the article quality is bad. Regarding the topic - "more brain activity/connectivi

Looks terrible on my machine. Something wrong with the font. And button press animation is too slow and annoying.
