There's a push and pull here, Typescript + React + Vercel are also very amenable to LLM driven development due to a mix of the popularity of examples in the LLMs dataset, how cheap the deployment is and how quick the ecosystem is to ge

So we have two things here: 1. "Mythical Man Month" which is the shorthand for a whole book + concept that you can't just throw more people at a software development project and get linear productivity improvements as the com

Memory makers make capital investements (build different factories, convert physical production lines, etc.) to meet orders that have been place for the next ~5 years. OpenAI (or whoever) crashes and can't pay for the order leaving the

Partially this was solved by the ZipDrive being designed for portability as well (I'm not even sure if there was ever a built in model). So if you needed to copy a large file and take it to a friends house you just took the drive with

More importantly it collapses mythical-man-month communication overhead.

What's weird though is the bifurcation in pricing in the market: aka if your app can function on a non-frontier level AI you can use last years model at a fraction of the cost.

This is one of those slippery slope things where Grammarly did "just" Grammar and then slowly got into tone and perception and brand voice suggestions and now seems to more or less just want to shave everything down to be as bland

Is there an example of a consumer facing SaaS that's been able to handle the "unlimited" in a way you'd consider positive?

Two things: 1. Tests have always been both about the function of the application, but also the communication of what should be occurring to the larger team or yourself six months down the road. With automated software development the commun

I feel like AI just raises the floor but doesn't push the ceiling on the quality of creative works. There's still space for creativity, novelty, invention and human intuition.

MCPs are for documentation. CLI->API is for interaction.

Very strongly reminds me of Mac Mini Colo - https://www.macminivault.com/mac-mini-colocation/ - it's a clever idea.

As doom and gloom as things are generally, I do think things have gotten better. Due to legislation and commercial pressure things like wifi routers shipping with the same default password and open settings have gotten better. Webhosts and

Bunny has a lot of that (they have a sqlite compatible API, edge functions, but the call it something different, etc.) That being said, I had enough issues with Bunny and CF debugging across regions that I made this free tool to do both rem

FWIW - I did a real world experiment pitting the built in Gemini Nano vs a free equivalent from OpenRouter (server call) and the free+server side was better in literally every performance metric. That's not to say that the in browser i

I don't really understand the internal mechanics of of this, but my first thought was why not combine this with a linter/tests. So that it produces all the forks and only keeps the syntactically correct ones.

The underlying intent here (figure out if it's an existing customer of our locally installed apps when they visit our website) doesn't seem bad, but I certainly dislike both the hosts file and localhost detection options. I'm

I build my own products and services and the effective ROI for paying for a more or less unlimited max Claude Code plan is fairly ridiculously positive.

Genuinely asking: has there been a case of the prediction markets being "right" or valuable about something outside of the norm?

Worth reading for the discussion of the LLM watermark technique alone.

Perhaps not so strange in that from a practical standpoint many "AI problems" are actually "Data Problems" when you start peeling things back.

That's a good trick (the "get ready" ping). It reminds me of how early Instagram was considered fast because they did the photo upload in the background while you were typing your caption so that by the time you hit "upl

It was genuinely quite frustrating that all of the "normal" domain names were taken for this, but not actually used (basically everything "moniker.TLD"). What was surprising was that all the prefix+suffix variants of app
