I'd say, on averaged, it's 50% what you say and 50% communication issues. Most smart juniors have no problem with learning. Perceptual exposure and deliberate practice works almost mechanically. However, if someone can't tell

At my new job, I was assigned to improve processes with AI. My first thought was, well agents seem nice, but I think, AI workflows are a better bet. However, I don't really understood AI or agents in depth and felt like I was just &quo

That matches my experience. GPT and Claude would work much better than Gemini, even if the direct feedback was sparse or diffuse. However, the moment I gave Gemini a fast testing framework that gave it instant feedback, it would mill throug

To be fair, MS send a world class engineer to make JavaScript usable for codebases at that scale.

Agentic engineers can build well defined, very deterministic middleware on top of OpenRouter. Anthropic even says, that an agent based solution should only be your last resort and that most problems are well served with a one-shot. https:&

How come? You can use it with just European models if you want.

"Agile was always aiming to solve the wrong problem (that code is the bottleneck)" No, it aimed to solve the "out specs are bad and we need to iterate faster" problem. "a massive lie exposed by LLMs" No. LL

I liked piecing the story together in the SCP wiki. Later I read the first version of the book and it was okay, but the vibes were a bit lost. The new version of the book I didn't even finish.

"No one has ever made a purchasing decision based on how good your code is." Because to determine good code, you need to see it and I'd presume most open source code is free.

Half-OT: when does gambling become safe? I mean, insurance is basically basically betting that bad things happen to you.

Fair. I just have the feeling that it doesn't get the job done anymore. I hope we will see the rise of alternatives.

"coding is the prime use case for this where you can make money" Is it? I have the impression GenAI deteriorates the internet both from a content and tech perspective. Bots that waste your time because they don't work well

As a German living in Germany, I had the impression most companies here are anti-WFH. It got better with COVID, but you still have to dig, to find something 100% remote.

In my experience, the pea-based products are pretty good. I'm a huge burger fan and stopped eating meat at home, thanks to this wave of vegan alternatives.

I heard, the middle of the context is often ignored. Do long context windows make much sense then or is this just a way of getting people to use more tokens?

Yes, the issues is that LLMs sometimes fill semantic gaps. When I write an article and I notice that there are steps missing for a conclusion then I do some research and fill them in. These gaps often only show up when drafting, so if the L

I liked that model a lot, but it made me a bit sad too. All my life I was bad at being a loser, somehow I never really felt I fit in. I thought this was because of psychopathic tendencies or something. However, after reading this I realized

How do you prove the training data didn't contain the code? I'd assume an LLM trained on the original would also be contaminated.

It doesn't matter for the LLM writing the analysis. It does matter for the one who implements it. Finding an LLM that's good enough to do the rewrite while being able to prove it wasn't exposed to the original GPL code is pro
