Checking is good, you should probably check. Every person I respect as a great programmer thinks agentic workflows are a joke, and almost every programmer I hold in low regard thinks they're the greatest things ever, so while I still c

Anecdotal: (of an account) not necessarily true or reliable, because based on personal accounts rather than facts or research. If you say you drove a 3 minute lap but you didn't time it, that's an anecdote (and is what I mean). If

One thing I find really funny is when AI enthusiasts make claims about agents and their own productivity its always entirely anecdotally based on their own subjective experience, but when others make claims to the contrary suddenly there is

It's not an absolutist statement and it doesn't lead to any of the insane conclusions you came up with. Holding the people running a model liable for what it generates has nothing to do with making tool makers liable.

No, because Grok or ChatGPT etc are not tools, they are services. It doesn't matter if Grok uses an LLM or a bunch of people using Photoshop, if they are outputting illegal content the consequences should be the same. People don't

X needs to be held liable in a criminal court for this. They should not be allowed to hide behind an AI and claim they are not at fault or whatever. They provide a service where users can request images, and the service generated illegal im

I feel like the right legal solution is to make the service providers liable in the same way if you offered a service where you got diagnosed by a human and they fucked up, the service is liable. And real liability, with developers and exec

The whole point of Tailwind is that it lets you do that. You can debate if Tailwind itself is a good idea but thats not relevant to comparing it to inline styles.

I think this is an extremely honest perspective. It's actually kind of cool that it's gotten to the point it can write most code - albeit with a lot of handholding.

You can do it multiple ways. Like in go: cloj := func() { val := 1 return func(m string) { switch m { case "inc": val = val + 1 case "dec": val = val - 1 } } } ()

Right but then you expect way more productivity from those teams. I'm wondering where that is. I find when I'm in a domain I'm not an expert in I am way more productive with the AI tools. With no knowledge of Java or Spring

And to push this example further, if you can hire 10 developers each commanding 10 reliable junior-mid developers you have a team of 100, which is probably more than enough to build basically any software project in existence. WhatsApp was

It is, but you get the benefit of shared behaviour and state. Like an Entity might have a Position, a reference to the World, the Screen, methods for interacting with other entities, etc. You don't get that from simply implementing an

Entity systems still rely on inheritance as you typically have an Entity baseclass that all entities derive from. That's just a single level of inheritance. Unity does this through MonoBehavior. Unreal is more inheritance-heavy but dev
