It isn't. I want a place where people leave their politics, religion and genitals at the door. Op made it seem like bluesky did that. A look at the front page says otherwise.

This is exactly the type of novel work that llms are good at. It's tedious and has annoying internal logic, but that logic is quite flat and there are a million examples to generalise from. What they fail at is code with high cyclomati

It's exactly the same meaning but with the sign reversed. Turns out identity politics is a terrible idea. Now the Guardian et al are finding out exactly why when the people they disagree with are doing it too.

An editor is the least interesting thing to learn in computer engineering. If you enjoy wasting your time may I suggest something like stamp collecting that doesn't create billions of dollars of lost productivity for the rest of us?

The typical bell curve meme: https://imgflip.com/i/9a9gm7 The fun begins when you can't debug by printf because the buffer is shared by multiple processes that change it while the printf command is running.

Antique means stable. When you've been using the same thing for 20 years changing defaults to be trendy isn't a plus. You'll understand in 20 years when you're on your 4th IDE which will change the world^tm.

I'm building the layer on top of the models. People call it agentic AI but that's a word without a definition. Needless to say better LLMs help with my work, the same way that a stronger horse makes plowing easier. The difference

Not sure why you're being downvoted that is exactly why I'm using that simple problem to benchmark LLMs. If an LLM can't figure out how to traverse a graph in its working memory then it has no hope of figuring out how to stru

Fascinating work. I never thought about what we could do if instead of trying to do work in real time we slowed robots down for non time critical tasks to latencies which current transformers can deal with on real hardware.

Keep in mind that workers in the EU work for around 6 hours a day, a robot works for 24, so it's replacing 4 of them, not 1.
