That's an excellent point and kind of summarises the tension in LLM coding between the people being told to use it (developers) and the people doing the telling (managers). The latter are laser focused on the final product, the outcome

Claude Bopus has it for you. Its literally in the MCP. You should have harnesses with Sonneto. Have you even used the latest models? GPT Optimus have them.

My local setup: I begrudgingly open `claude` on a terminal, hate it for 8 hours, then turn off my computer and forget it exists. Rinse and repeat

I don't know how it is in Europe, but in Canada we only get United Fruit Company bananas from Guatemala, which are disgusting (okay strong words, but they aren't great). Brazilian bananas are so much better they seem like a differ

It certainly will _not_ be just for that individual. Believing in that would be like believing web tracking is only ever used to "enhance your browsing experience".

We don't know. Only years in the future, with the benefit of hindsight, will we be able to conclude something. What we do know right now is that the US has been a poor hegemony, inflicting a century of suffering around the world, and C

That's not really addressing the same issue though. I'm saying that there is a pressure to preamble any (good or weak) criticism of AI with an Apostle's Creed of AI positiveness, reassuring the reader that what follows isn&#x

>Often these solutions are announced in a rush, leaving no time for a proper writeup, the isolation of new methods and ideas, and citing relevant previous work of others. That's just capitalism seeping through a previously unexplore

I'm not saying China is perfect, but its not unreasonable to entertain the possibility that it might be better than what we've suffered for the last century. Okay, Taiwan. They are the losing side from the Chinese civil war from o

Perhaps the world gets a new hegemon that isn't going to spend the next century bombing other countries, installing dictatorships and destroying democracies? Doesn't sound too bad!

I think many people share this feeling. I sure do. I don't see how it could have gone any other way. The internet became too pervasive, too embedded into too many people's lives, for it to not be weaponized by governments and larg

Considering two groups, FSD and non-FSD, what are the shares of full-sized SUVs in them? Pretty sure whatever the FSD vehicle you can think of, none is a full-sized SUVs, and those are the most lethal kind of vehicle.

This is a great idea and something I've faced and had to implement manually in the past. The most common scenario for me was: I implement backup, done by a daily cron calling pg_dump. It worked and I moved on, until one day I needed to

"if you think the people selling lettuce at farmers markets or farm stands have any verified food safety or food handling expertise, they don't." Really? At least here (Canada), you absolutely do need food safe certifications

That's a profoundly strange take. I've never in my life seen a more anti-China technology forum than HN. Whatever the headline is, say "CO2 levels have been falling for 21 months", if it has "China" in it, it w

Might be a stupid question, but at that scale, wouldn't any kind of memory be soldered into the SOC, and thus have next to zero commercial value if removed? I have a hard time believing they would use actual retail DIMM memory sticks f
