I think it's a bad analogy. For one - smoking does very high permanent damage to a car interior. Two - the usage pattern was Shaun's toc but not obviously against the spirit. More like "you can use my car to drive around as

This exactly. I'm using 10% of my max plan on the weeks that I'm working a lot. Hit a 4-hour limit once over few months and never let it run overnight. And I'm very happy with my subscription

The ban hammer is the scary part. I am afraid of using any Google services in experimental way from the fear that my whole Google existence will be banned. I think blocking access temporarily with a warning would be much more suitable. Unbl

This is a two-day task for me. If you could do it in one hour, then you're a 10x programmer compared to me. You can browse the code at <my_username>.com/slop/hn_tb/ I have also sloped the simple code viewer. So you

The example from yesterday: I have a large C# application. In this application I have a functionality to convert some group of settings into a tree model (a list of commands to generate this tree). There are a lot of weird settings and spec

I'm claiming it's both. I produce more good (imo) production features despite being distracted. The features I mention is something that I would be able to do, but only with a lot of learning and great effort - so in practical te

I mean there are two different things. One is whether there are actual productivity boosts right now. And the second is the excitement about the technology. I am definitely more productive. A lot of this productivity is wasted on stuff I pr

I don't know what is your bubble, but I'm a regular programmer and I'm absolutely excited even if a little uncomfortable. I know a lot of people who are the same.

I think it's worth a read in current times of agentic models swarming the world. It's the novel the whole biological life is wiped of Earth but the servers keep churming with (kind of) LLM agents. The LLMS find a way to keep thei

Basically a lot of use cases where you would hire a human without giving him access to your sensitive information. From perfectly benign things like gathering chats from Discord servers to learn how your brand is perceived. To more nefariou

What resonates the most with me in the article is this quote > I was so naïve that I thought progress could only go one direction, because that’s all I’d ever known. As kids growing up in Eastern Europe in the 80s and 90s the world felt

I have seem stuff like "you can use my program if you will make me a co-author". That usually comes up with some support usually.

The AlphaZero approach shows otherwise, as long as there is an automated way to generate new test cases and evaluate the outcomes. We can't do it for all domains, but I believe we can for efficient code. today's models could be pr

I am not in a high stakes environment and work on a one-person size projects. But for months I have almost stopped writing actual lines of code myself. Frequency and quality of my releases had improved. I got very good feedback on those re

The tool is absolutely fantastic coding assistant. That's why I use it. The amount of non-critical bugs all over the place is at least a magnitude larger than of any software I was using daily ever. Plenty of built in /commands do

Claude code (opus) is very good in Polish. I sometimes vibe code in polish and it's as good as with English for me. It speaks a natural, native level Polish. I used opus to translate thousands of strings in my app into polish, Korean

Ask Poles. Some "west bad" rhetoric is that the fall of communism was orchestrated by Americans and not of organic local origin. In reality the communist regime protected by Russian/ soviet violence had no legitimacy or suppo

I'm fully aware of that. For the last month I've been working on a relatively big feature in a larger project. I often compact the session when starting a new feature, often have to remind claude to read the claude.md etc. I still

Anecdotal evidence of course but I have one long-running session in a terminal for over a month now. I work with it daily, compacts several times a day, I rollback conversation sometimes. All with no issues.

The exorbitant costs could save us from ads actually. instead everyone will have to pay subscriptions like for mobile phone plans. Haven't heard of the ad-based Rolls-Royce yet.

The odds may be the same but the game is not the same. The point of lottery games is to offer the lowest possible probability of winning that has a perception of being winnable. So guessing few random small numbers feels easier than picking
