I blame the user for accepting the tool call.

They tell you in their docs to review every tool call and to not connect to production data. You don't blame postgres for letting you execute DROP TABLE.

What would be on such an exam? Pseudocode, logic puzzles? Certainly not specifics on any particular technology, right?

The 'as is' nature of open source applies regardless of whether a human or LLM wrote the code.

This is easily solved with a thin wrapper for calling openai/anthropic/google/whatever that has the same interface between model providers (except for unique capabilities). You don't need a whole framework for this.

This doesn't work forever. The birth rates in developing countries are also falling.

It seems like these examples show that it has about the same capabilities as a basic chat interface like Claude or ChatGPT without any benefit from being integrated with the Microsoft ecosystem.

These are all things that people find value in. Most people don't assign any value to sitting in traffic.

(neo)liberal != libertarian. The government has a clear role for internalizing externalities, which makes markets more efficient. Or, in this case, using price signals to allocate scarce resources when it was just a free-for-all before.

> For one: terminating execution Seems like you should have a generic error handler that will at a minimum catch unexpected, unhandled exceptions with a 'Something went wrong' toast or similar?

Yes, this hurts smaller companies with less capital/cash flow more than larger companies.

I definitely think that there will be a far higher % of B than A in the future, but I also think it's accurate to say that the ratio of A:B was much higher in the 70s than now, even though there's a lot more A in absolute terms to

This isn’t “most users”, this is a large company building a product on top of Nix. I’m pretty sure most orgs using Nix at a minimum have a custom overlay. If you identify these things as an issue, any competent engineer should find a vari

I think there will always be people who want to look under the layers of abstraction, and people who don't care. All the abstractions we've created for computing has lowered the barrier of entry for people who want to create usefu

The people who want to look under the hood even if they have no immediate reason to do so will always exist, and the people who don't care and just learn the bare minimum to produce app features that usually work will always exist. All

how?? I consider myself pretty heavy handed with letting Gemini fill up its 1M token context window for individual tasks, and I don't exceed $20 per day. Do they just let the agent spin in a loop for 4 hours?

Anyone that's gotten a CS degree or looked at godbolt output.

A single response can take a few seconds, but tasks with agentic flows can be dozens of back and forths. I've had a fairly complicated Roo Code task take 10 minutes (multiple subtasks).

I mean, from a distribution standpoint, electricity is way easier to distribute than heat (pressurized steam? Hot water?) and has less loss over longer distances.

I asked Gemini this, and it caught that it was fiction: This sounds like a fascinating ritual from a fictional world! Since "Aethelgard" and the "silent Cliff Dwellers" with their "Stone-Breath Passing" ritual

Anecdotally o4-mini doesn’t perform as well on video understanding tasks in our pipeline, and also in Cursor it seems really not great. During one session, it read the same file (same lines) several times, ran ‘python -c ‘print(“skip!”)’’ f

If 99% of the packages in your repos are bit-for-bit reproducible, you can consider your distro to have a high degree of reproducibility.

This is great! I often have a situation where I have a nice three pane split with one split vertically and another one horizontal in one of the vertical panes, but if I close the big vertical pane, I now just have two wide horizontal panes

Same feedback from me, puzzle was great but the custom keyboard is really hard to use, seems to misplace clicks a lot and it has no haptic feedback

Haven’t tried copilot but cursor is pretty good at telling me where things are and explaining the high level architecture of medium-largeish codebases, especially if I already vaguely know what I’m looking for. I use this a lot when I need

A DCT is superior in almost every situation except for when you just want to push a clutch in yourself. For a car that is primarily a toy, “fun” is a good enough reason to not consider a DCT. Obviously for lots of people getting the better

So many regulations could be streamlined and IMO made much more effective if they were just designed around the simplest way to make people pay for their negative externalities. Carbon taxes and congestion pricing are great examples of this

Sure, but have any made as much progress as Neuralink? Not a rhetorical, genuinely asking as someone who doesn't know much about this field. Though, even if others have, isn't this kind of technological achievement something to be
