Yeah, but it's pretty different complaining from the position of a rank and file engineer at what was then like a 50k-person org as opposed to praising a competitor's product when you're at a small company, and you're th

This is particularly interesting, as Steve Yegge works on (and I think leads) Sourcegraph Cody[0], which is a competitor to Claude Code. Cody does use Claude Sonnet, so they do have some aligned interests, but it's still surprising to

v3 is out now and v2 is officially deprecated: https://groups.google.com/g/beancount/c/iTdRuvZnE4E I found the migration pretty confusing and haven't found good documentation on how to go from v2 to v3.

Right, but based on his statement in that environment, the odds are strongly that Dan doesn't know what the command line is. It's true that there's an outside chance that Carol's comment would be helpful given unlikely

I think they mean that just because code is under github.com/google, it doesn't make it an "official" Google thing. For example, yapf[0] is under the Google Github org but has the disclaimer: > Note YAPF is not an off
