Your comment is spot on, but the nuance people who are still new to these LLMs don't yet see is the real reason "he'd be better off just writing the damned book instead." 1. That prompt is always a slot machine. It'

This is exactly the sentiment I have been trying to articulate myself. The ONLY reason we are here today is because OpenAI, and Anthropic, by extension, took it upon themselves to launch chat bots trained on whatever datasources they could

I had a european friend introduce me to indoor drying racks, and since, anything I plan to keep long term, I hang dry as well. I've found my clothes last longer and look nicer. Only thing I've found doesn't work well are towe

Wouldn't C++ and Rust eventually call down into those same libc functions? I guess for your example, qsort() it is optional, and you can chose another implementation of that. Though I tend to find that both standard libraries tend to j

At that point the real question should be restated. Does the LLVM IL that is generated from clang and rustc matter in a meaningful way?

I've also found it to keep such a constrained context window (on large codebases), that it writes a secondary block of code that already had a solution in a different area of the same file. Nothing I do seems to fix that in its initial

Aren't toll roads the norm? It was radical in the 1940s and 1950s to create public freeways. Toll roads do have real consequences and, do, raise the cost of everything that needs to travel over it. It also means things that could exist

It's a shame that my company tied itself to claude-code way too fast. It was like a single week last summer of, "oh what's everyone's favorite? claude? okay, let's go!" OpenCode has been truely innovating in th

As of Dec 2025, Sonnet/Opus and GPTCodex are both trained and most good agent tools (ie. opencode, claude-code, codex) have prompts to fire off subagents during an exploration (use the word explore) and you should be able to Research w

"no conflict of interest" is basically meaningless if your day job is writing software. These clauses you sign are quite broad in what that scope of conflict could be. Every company I've worked for has had very explicit rules

Anecdotally, the common theme I'm starting to hear more often now is that people who use “AI” at work despise it when it replaces humans outright, but love it when it saves them from mundane, repetitive crap that they have to do. These

meh, you're just conflating two different things. Tech companies spent a decade (since 2010), driving towards some belief that the entire world was going to go online and stay there. They also ammassed an insane amount of wealth in tha

There are hundreds of thousands of software engineers who, given FU amounts of money, would absolutely keep writing software and do it only for the love of it. The companies that hire us usually make us sign promises that we won't work

It's kind of annoying, right now at least, when an agent can see all the LSP noise and it decides to go off on a tangent to address the LSP noise in the middle of running a task that the LSP is responding to. For this to work, the LLM

Gemini 2.5 and now 3 seem to continue their trend of being horrific in agentic tasks, but almost always impress me with the single first shot request. Claude Sonnet is way better about following up and making continuous improvements during

I thought WASM was no_std since there's no built in allocator? Regardless, not sure why a Rust engineer would choose this path. The whole point to writing a service in Rust is that you would trade 10x time build complexity and develope

Notarization is an automated process at the very least, and just speculation, but since entitlements are baked into the codesigning step, it seems meant to prevent software from granting itself entitlements Apple doesn't want 3rd parti

Sure and that's one way to solve royalties. I suspect from purely logistics, AI training is better when it's free to injest all the content it can, and for that freedom it pays in some small royalty amount when that source is cite

Okay, I'm willing to entertain your cynical take. However, experience has shown me that if we need to solve a vague problem as a team of engineers and designers, we know to get ample context of what it is we're actually trying to
