Are you sure they are not just refusing to solve your UI bug due to safety concerns? They may be worried you'll take over the world once your UX becomes too good.

It really seems it's mostly AI comments on this. Maybe this topic is attractive to all the bots.

You could manage your subscriptions in an RSS reader, that's what I used to do. Each channel has multiple RSS feeds associated with it for different types of videos (live, vod, etc).

The whole Youtube experience has gotten so bad over the years. I love the youtube content, but I wish I didn't have to deal with the UI/UX and recommendations that the YT app forces on me. Annoying Shorts. I'm trying to keep

Interesting, I don't like codex exactly because of its built-in sandboxing. If I need a sandbox I rather do a simple bwrap myself around the agent process, I prefer that over the agent cli doing a bunch of sandboxing magic that gets in

What do you recommend? I've tried both pi and opencode and both are better than claude imo, but I wonder if there are others.

I see these analogies a lot, but I don't like them. Assembly has a clear contract. You don't need to know how it works because it works the same way each time. You don't get different outputs when you compile the same C code

I think it just really depends. There is no fixed rule to how PhD programs are supposed to work. Sometimes your advisor will suggest projects he finds interesting and wants to see done, he just doesn't have time to do it himself. That&

That has been my experience as well. Most of the value of writing docs or a wiki is not in the final artifacts, it's that the process of writing docs updates your own mental models and knowledge so that you can make better decisions do

I assume this means we can no longer use Claude code sessions in editors like zed because it also wraps claude cli via ACP?

Yeah and it doesn't help that the claude CLI itself IMO isn't that great. It feels a bit like a sloppy vibe coded app. So they are forcing me to use an inferior product.

That's why I am using Codex. I slightly prefer Claude in terms of code quality, but it's close, but not being able to use my subscription with other CLIs and apps ruins Claude for me.

Codex, it's much more generous. And doesn't lock you into using their CLI. Still I'm a bit surprised you burn through tokens that quickly. I rarely ever reach my limit.

I'd disagree. You're not learning anything if you close your eyes and tell your LLM "set up home manager" - but you'll learn a lot if you read the code it produces, ask clarifying questions, and actually try to unde

Now with LLMs it's even easier. Writing nix code is hard, but reading it is straightforward because it's declarative, so you can easily review what an LLM produces. And it's not much code either, a simple home manager setup i

Or just use nix with home manager. Battle tested, lots of built-in functionality, works perfectly. Author claims the learning curve for it is weeks, but I had my setup up and running in a 1-2 hours at most and have been super happy with it.

I doubt there is anything special about the transformer code the frontier labs use. The only thing proprietary in it are probably the infrastructure-specific optimizations for very large scale distributed training and some GPU kernel tricks

It's exactly the same as the open source codex/gemini and other clis like opencode. There is no secret sauce in the claude cli, and the agent harness itself is no better (worse IMO) than the others. The only thing interesting abou

I've heard similar things from many people know, but I don't feel like this at all. I don't find coding with Claude any more or less addictive than without. I do find coding with claude slightly more fun, but mostly because b

There are a few personal scripts I replaced with an LLM prompt/skill. Can't really think of any subscriptions though.

If you do it for fun then why do you care whether an LLM can do it well or not, which was the original argument? Shouldn't matter to you in that case.

It's just a prompt.

But what's the point of re-building "standard software" if it is so standard that it already exists 100 times in the training data with slight variations?

Very cool book. I think a reason why ML has seen so much progress despite benchmark overfitting/abuse is that results are "regularized" by real world applications and the Lindy effect. Methods, or research, that abuse bench

Not fine if you use Claude. But it's fine if you are Google Flights and the user uses Gemini. The paid version of course.
