my workflow involves switching between files in working set, sometimes going back to staged. The git panel is easier to navigate than the file tree. I also need to see all the markers for recent changes I made, they are in git diff Inside t

a program can be unixy: taking inputs and producing output, and does not listen and react to any event. It can also be an UI program that are "event-driven" but all events are from user actions, hence no autonomy.

I have seen a few of these tools and yet to see usefulness further than not having to edit config manually for each client. Wishlist for something I would use: - Always run MCP in a sandbox - If I am gonna browse open source MCP and try the

There is already a definition in agent oriented programning. It has something to do with own sensors of environment and react autonomously. I find that definition fits agentic AI too. My rudimentary interpretation is anything with its own i

Could someone please explain in-browser inference to me? So in the context of OpenAI usage (WebLLM github), this means I will send binary to OpenAI instead of text? And it will lower the cost and run faster?

this space is moving really fast, I suggest before forming an definitive opinion try the best tool, such as the latest Claude model and use "agentic" mode or the equivalence on your client. For example, on Copilot this mode is br

It's crack up to be because tools need to be hard-coded. MCP is not. When computer use was demoed it seems like a big deal. However, with MCP, any one can create and MCP server and run it on their computer and hook it up to an MCP comp

Sorry but I'm extremelly annoyed with this idiotic take that many people seem to have. Is it that easy to prompt AI to write code and call an API predictably?

CSS is overly complicated for how little it does. You have to learn it. For comparison, when I did Android development, I never had to "learn" how their xml DSL works, it's mostly "just work"tm. Android has constrai

My take would be starting with WAI-ARIA, or create a new standard with similar goal and keep the standard minimal and single-purpose. We are heading into the era of AI driven UI anyway.

as building blocks we of course prefer APIs. However, interfacing directly with the browser (or desktop) can enable end users to do way more things without having integration built by devs, in theory at least. In reality, LLM may not have r

That's just reactive programming, nothing new. It's sad that some people think it can only be achieved with wacky non-standard syntax.
