Canadian girlfriend coding strikes again. I would love for someone to point to a codebase done by an ai with the code, history and cost that's good. It's always a ball of mud that doesn't work and even the ai that coded it up

Given that London has little else going for it other than a financial industry it's not surprising money is raised and companies are registered there. That said I don't know anyone doing a startup in London. But I know dozens in B

There is an old saying back home: an idiot never tires, only sweats. Claude isn't tenacious. It is an idiot that never stops digging because it lacks the meta cognition to ask 'hey, is there a better way to do this?'. Chain o

Nothing, but openbsd is amazing and just works. Anyone still using Linux on the desktop in 2026 should switch.

Yes, this is what Ai assisted coding is good at. A poc that would usually take a team of engineers weeks to make because of lack of cross disciplinary skills can now be done by one at the cost of long term tech debt because of lack of cross

I fail to see how anyone had fun with cursors Web browser. Gastown is fun in the same way time cube is. If it smells like bullshit and looks like bullshit there's little need to eat it to make sure it tastes like bullshit too.

I don't know why you are being downvoted. Rust in the Linux kernel is basically all unsafe which is what I expected to happen the first time I heard about it.

If you read the article you'd know they were talking about go/rust. We can sprinkle bugs with borrow checker to burn them in Rust, fair enough everyone knows that the only bugs that happen in system languages are memory errors. Bu

Why stop at a systems language? Why not assembly? Hell why not raw machine code? You have to rewrite it for every new processor? Big deal. Llm magic means that cost isn't an issue and a rewrite is just changing a single variable in the

The chat models are optimised to keep people chatting. The attention economy is still the economy this companies operate in. Which is weird seeing as I'm paying hundreds of dollars per month to get good results.

It assumes basic knowledge of the spectrum of various light sources. All white LEDs have a spike in the blue spectrum that incandescents don't: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Spectrum-of-a-white-LED-...

There are no white LEDs. Just blue LEDs with coatings that convert a fraction of blue/violet light into lower energy colours. They work the same way that fluorescent light do. This means that LEDs produce a much higher amount of blue l

Asbestos was pushed as a magical solution to problems of fire in homes without paying attention to the health effects. It took 80 years for the obvious to become law. Leds are pushed as a solution to energy consumption by humans without pay

I have incandescent light bulbs at home I have to pretty much smuggle from China. It's amazing how we're replaying the asbestos playbook a century later. Only this time it's government mandated.

Ive been using espeak for 20 years. There doesn't need to be a way forward when the software 'just works' on every platform, I'm happily using it from my phone now.

That's the economics prize. If Trump really wanted to annoy those people he should start the 'Nobel Memorial Prize by Trump' and award it to himself. It's about as legitimate as the one in economics.
