I think GPT 4.5 showed that there is indeed a practical limit we're close too. That was supposedly a high-trillions of parameter model that was deprecated almost immediately because it was slow, insanely expensive, and had questionable

They are fundamentally different, but people desire they be aligned. The public expects the economy to producing higher quality of life for us, otherwise what is it doing? And for whom? But whether it actually does so is a function of other

The fundamental difference is that email you host yourself requires ongoing maintenance and expertise to work at a basic level, and people would rather outsource it. AI inference is different. You get the outcome by passing text through som

How many times can I read the same shallow guidance written by AI on using a coding agent? Good god when will it stop

Something else I've been thinking about which makes the economics of AI weird: The more powerful you make AI, the easier you make it for everyone else to make AI. I probably wouldn't bother to train an LLM from scratch, but I&#x27

IMO env files are a bit of an anti-pattern, env vars should be set outside the context of your app so that your app doesn't need to care where they come from, it just uses standard env var APIs to read them. This means developers can c

This is AI slop written primarily with the intent to promote the authors, not to actually educate. So sick of this kind of content.

Interesting idea and there's clearly something real here, but I am extremely skeptical this played out like the article suggests. The authors are hand-waving some pretty complicated actions... Like how did Mona access supplier pages an

You say this like it's a bad thing, but wouldn't you rather they overindex on the danger of their models?

I think Anthropic will launch backend hosting off the back of their Bun acquisition very soon. It makes sense to basically run your entire business out of Claude, and share bespoke apps built by Claude code for whatever your software needs

I had the same thought. When you're a B2B and B2C company and you have to make a bold decision, the B wins because they hold the enterprise $$$.

I've always chosen frameworks for their abstractions and their design decisions, rarely their performance. Great research by the author, I feel better about that decision now.

I quit my job and went out on my own freelancing. So far, it's been fantastic. I can do more things for clients, much faster, than I ever dreamed would be possible when I've attempted work like this before. I think the biggest pro

British democracy and government is cool. It's not enshrined in some document they got together and wrote down like the US constitution, it's this organic thing that they've stumbled towards over the last ~800 years with smal

They don't need to be impressive to be worthwhile. I like incremental improvements, they make a difference in the day to day work I do writing software with these.

They already have a HTTP API, but the real reason is that CLIs are emerging as the most ergonomic way for the current wave of AI agents to do stuff. There's a few benefits over APIs: - No need to worry about transport layer stuff at al

Would you be bothered if a stranger struck up a nice conversation with you? Most people like it! And even if they don’t, that’s ok, trust people to tell you their boundaries and respect them when they do. Nothing wrong with bothering someon

It’s not articulated in depth because nobody knows what opportunities there are on the other side.

What exactly is this? It says it's for Linux, but what makes it "for Linux"? I'm curious which parts of Rosetta are Apple silicone specific and which aren't.

LLMs are amazing, I love them, but he is right. When it comes to interacting with your fellow humans, using AI just sucks the point and meaning out of life. If we wanted to know what Claude thought, we’d ask him. Don’t be a mouthpiece for A

In my experience AGENTS.md files only save a bit of time, they don't meaningfully improve success. Agents are smart enough to figure stuff out on their own, but you can save a few tool calls and a bit of context by telling them how to

Inferencing with Huawei chips is not new either, they’ve had DeepSeek running on them since last year.

This doesn’t appear to be an official website. The official release only mentions Huawei is supported for inference. So… pretty sure this is not true.

The first attempts at hyperconverged were very hardware focused and kinda meh. Nutanix is the best example - they pioneered hyperconverged hardware but the firmware/software was extremely average. Oxide are the first to say "it sh

Speak for yourself. I’ve been using Claude Code to build lots of customer facing things.

It cannot be solved, at least not in the way I think people want it to be. We’re lonely because we are wired to avoid rejection and uncomfortable social situations, and because technology has given us hundreds of alternatives to sitting in

I loved the first and last third. The middle is meandering and hard to get through. Watching everything unfold though is really satisfying at the end.

Don’t be terrified, it just sounds like you read a lot. Many of these books are huge, most people definitely wouldn’t finish then all in a year.
