Yeah, and as much as people complain about Claude restrictions, it's a lot more generous than Antigravity and more transparent.

Claude seems to do perfectly fine with monorepos and navigates them better than humans. GPT will get lost and repair the wrong code. Most tools will also look at what you worked on recently. If it's difficult for humans, then that shou

Typical interview types we see: Make this thing that would be impossible without AI. The test is to see if you actually architect it properly and understand principles of how things connect together. Make this thing that would be impossible

I'm about the age where I need a walking stick and a cyborg arm to keep up with all these leetcode artists. AI couldn't come at a better time.

This jumped out at me right away too. What happened to the days when a dedicated manager would manage 8 reports? What now? AI is going to double the communication bandwidth with these reports and further double the free time they have? I do

Capitalism and the free market wasn't built for our economy. It was built for scarcity, not abundance. The idea was that competition would lower prices to the level of cost. This works for the price of iron or textiles, but since softw

For impact most likely. Dynamic pricing is core to the budget airline industry and such a law would hurt them more, especially with the thin margins. It happens with games too, but the price of games doesn't affect how someone eats.

My and my partner made an app where you stare at yourself in the mirror for 5-30 minutes. You'd record how you feel after. It's not "scientifically proven" to work but it's quantifiable that there's a clear imp

Famine and disease always follows wars. The more wars, the more famines. It's not just supply chains. Very often things are delayed - shortage of fertilizer will impact things a year later.

Bubbles happen when a) someone buys something where they don't understand the value to, b) sell it off to another sucker who also doesn't understand the value. If a is not true, the prices will fall to their value. If b is not tru

They're tuned to target a certain customer demographic solving for certain problems. I've seen standard AI models to absolutely brilliant things sometimes. But the prompts to get it to perform like it did with GPT-3 seem to get le

Most tech giants are one hit wonders. Microsoft is the exception, not the norm. The playbook now is get product-market fit -> own 99% market share -> build, buy, exterminate everything that could threaten this market share -> when

Does Android Studio count as Jetbrains? It's core to mobile development still. AI tools are not designed for code reviews for some reason. Maybe everyone is clicking "accept all". I end up reviewing in either Android Studio o

I feel like this should be a service in itself, similar to Heroku or Supabase. Just tick which laws you want to adhere to, upload files to their buckets. Tick another box for audit logs and such and it'll ask you where you need your hu

We did it before. OKRs and such. If there's an incentive to hit 99% non-cash rates, the app just does nothing when it would normally crash. A manager decided not to release a refactor that would fix a bug because it would have jeapordi

That and Claude/Codex are setting up their own equivalents. The hosting companies and AI wrapper companies are rolling out their own built up clawdbots.

+1. Companies like AWS are not known for this kind of treatment. Even Google does this. The norm seems to be to randomly ban and ignore emails. It's a whitelist to build customer trust, not a blacklist of bad companies
