Most of the issues are around code hygiene rather than just LLM code being bad. You're creating code 10x faster, but you're also writing unit tests 10x faster, not just that but integration tests, CICD workflows, prod monitoring,

It's the 3rd or 4th of threads like this in the front page and it's still not clear to me what are the alternatives that privacy advocates vouch for? Dead internet theory is happening, you have botnets with more budget than most o

LLMs fail at laser-focused troubleshooting, but they excel at brute-force breadth. Priming an agent to list 50 distinct possible causes for a database connection failure and investigate each one of them works better than hoping it guesses t

The interesting thing about religions as a whole is that the timespan is so big that you can really see how the backbone of the narrative stays the same while the fanbase and how they pick winners changes a lot, the Vatican state itself is

I think the main issue is treating LLM as a unrestrained black box, there's a reason nobody outside tech trust so blindly on LLMs. The only way to make LLMs useful for now is to restrain their hallucinations as much as possible with ev

The hardware looks fine, but Apple's software vision is so confusing. MacBook Neo is cheaper and weaker than a MacBook Air, yet shares the same price and single-app mindset as an iPad. It uses a phone chip similar to an iPad Pro, but g

At least that's the story LLM labs leaders wanna tell everyone, just happen to be a very good story if you wanna hype your valuation before investment rounds. Working with LLM on a daily basis I would say that's not happening, not

I really like CF approach to cloud, it's a nice middle ground between old school heroku and full fledged AWS, plus their free tiers are generous enough that I barely pay anything on the stuff I got deployed there.

I know the feeling but my impression is that interacting with people that are strictly internet friends is a proxy to the real thing, the same way watching porn is a proxy for the real thing. When you spend X hours talking to people on the

Loved your description of the class system. There's a general theme of old money wealthy people not caring about vanity purchases because they don't know how much stuff costs nor if that is a too much money or not. It's inter

This is what makes the innovator's dilemma repeat itself so many times in so many industries. It's not that the incumbent companies don't see the new technology; it's that they're so entrenched in what they know how

The problem in general is consistency. Bread is very forgiving on flavour profiles so what you're saying works fine within a good threshold. For breweries it's usually not worth it as there are lots of nuances on the mutations of
