We’re launching markdown now, aren’t we?

For companies / billionaires obeying in advance means they are buying their subscription to a period of favors like better contracts, lesser scrutiny over mergers, lighter enforcement of all laws. I’d like to think that they are scared

Well, the original claim of risk was also evidence-free. It’s fair because the folks who are making the claim never left the armchair.

This drama arc of “I used to be so pure and good, but others made me evil” is so tiring. I really miss the nerd profile who cared a lot more about tech and science, and a lot less about signaling their righteousness. How did we get so relig

Been thinking about the nature of this behavior for a long time, you have nailed it so well, no one will be able to take out this nail.

Perhaps they didn’t have the time to write a shorter version. Or the discipline. Maybe neither.

Wholly agree. I'd also add that it's not about the relevance of the conventions, but one's (in)ability to "read the room" and follow the conventions signals to others how well-adapted (or "aligned") of a h

Well, this random person we are referring to happens to have a PhD in math from Duke. I find that satisfying.

It’s also much faster that way. We cut so many corners and make wise bets in what to test a lot and what not to bother with compared to spec-driven development with an LLM.

Your wording painted the picture of a drug high in my mind, probably an upper. Requiem for Dream style, amazing “Summer”, followed the brutal come down that is “Winter.” Thank you for not using an LLM.

Nail on the head. Governments monopolize violence. It’s a core principle. The fundamental difference you missed is we want a monopoly on violence, but we want to avoid a monopoly on everything else. Monopolistic aims aren’t innocent just co

Awesome story! Well-written also. You are the engineer we all aspired to be. Though, you really are the chosen one. Wish you the best!

Great idea! I’ve been thinking about something along these lines as well. I recommend configuring it as a tool for Opencode. Going from Claude Code to Opencode was like going from Windows to Mac.

Unless you work for a consulting firm, you should be working on something new/unique. It’s a winner-takes-all market. There are no buyers for off brand Salesforce or Uber.

It proves that my tax dollars are wasted on whoever is running this sloppy process and the crappy private prison. It’s one thing to not be bothered by constitutional violations, it’s a whole another thing to be ok with squandering our tax d

An extremely charitable take. I commend you. It’s absolutely a scam intended to route our tax dollars to private prisons. The rest is theater. I bet the borders are still open to those who are motivated enough to cross.

Another reframing that might help: “Doing X is only part of the task. Getting baby/junior/employee to do X as independently as possible is also a critical requirement.” This framing doesn’t allow you to think you’d do a better job

I’ve developed a similar sense about maintainability becoming more important with LLMs. I have no hard data. Just feels that way. Can you elaborate a little bit on how you get the LLM to produce maintainable code? Any tricks other than bett

What a sober and accurate observation of the real capabilities of LLMs. And it’s nothing to sneeze at because it allows me to stay in the terminal rather than go back and forth between the terminal and Google.

You’re not stupid. But the agents.md file is just an md file at the end of the day. We’ve been acting as if it’s assembly code that the agents execute without question or confusion, but it’s just some more text.

We would all be enlightened if you grounded this blind belief of yours and told us why these design decisions make sense, rather than appealing to authority or power or whatever this is…

The other day someone referred to Claude Code as “the most complex terminal app” they’ve seen. Meanwhile folks are rendering videos in the terminal.

by ozozozd 8mo ago
We are uniquely capable of doing that because we invented that :) It’s a self-serving definition, a job description. This isn’t an argument against LLMs capability. But the burden of proof is on the LLMs’ side.

I can relate coz once upon a time I enjoyed reading poetic code - which I later found to be impossible to modify or extend. > Eventually your boss will start asking why you’re getting paid twice your zoomer colleagues’ salary to produce

It’s extremely simple. If that’s the most complex TUI (yeah, new acronym) you’ve seen, you have a lot to catch up on! I am talking rendering image/video in the terminal!

It’s not them denying it, it’s the LLM that generated this slop. All they had to say was that the KiB et. al. were introduced in 1998, and the adoption has been slow. And not “but a kilobyte can be 1000,” as if it’s an effort issue.

I assume the thinking is “why look bad when you can look good?” Or a longing for “cleanliness” by just throwing things away. Reminds of a TV show scene where doing the dishes meant using them for target practice. If you have no dishes, ther
