I started building one some years ago, until a friend pointed out that I’d be unemployable and probably targeted.

Could it be that there’s simply less options in the open-source AI space compared to ALL of open-source?

The topics of discussion at the retreat are somewhat questionable. We’re also not exactly sure what some of these people believe in. Personally, I’d never want Thiel or Kushner anywhere near my EU officials. Not even in the same planet.

I know a few. Heck, I’ve worked at such a place, we strictly checked MX records to make sure the email would be reachable, and catch-alls usually wouldn’t pass validation. (I’m not saying we should have been doing that, but the company was

I pay for the bundle, but HME was never hassle-free. I would say that it works on ~40% of form fields. Most of the time I never get the prompt from HME. It’s also might obnoxious if you ever need to remove an email from that list (or, gods

The AppStore has been like that for eons, but then again I don’t know a single person that uses it or checks the “content” posted there. It’s an utter waste of time. I don’t think it will leak. After the U2 debacle, Apple might have learn

Composer is fairly decent. Many people aren’t in the market for an IDE — and a subpar one at that —, but they could sell API access to Composer itself.

It’s even added automatically the first time you turn it on. But I had no idea the setting even existed, despite occasionally checking Accessibility. We need a “What’s New” for Settings :D

It’s a great feature, I’ve been testing it while we drive in the Greek mountains. I don’t know why it’s buried so deep in Settings.

I don’t think someone running llama.cpp compiled from source is what they meant with “general public”. Everyone around me knows ChatGPT and OpenAI (the owners, no clue about what else). I don’t think any of them have a clue what Anthropic o

I mean, it’s expensive, huge, and potentially unstable; not exactly what I’d want to read in bed at night. The Pine projects are necessary and well-motivated, but the PineNote doesn’t strike me as a reader’s device, maybe a hacker’s or some

Are we blaming the spec and the author of the post for trying to conform to the checks, instead of blaming Adobe or Kobo for using 16-year old technology that ISN’T spec-compliant? -.-

The vagary of speech and its meaning is surely hard to parse. But! How many ways must a model invent to run `tsc`? npx tsc bash tsc bash npx tsc npm run build … I’m not an expert at all on the subject matter, but is

Google has announced… Markdown with YAML front-matter, ladies and gentlemen. Please applause. 15kb of spec for this! (I’d be less sardonic if we could all stop using oops-you-missed-an-indent-YAML.)

We’d have, say, 20 or 30 seasons of shows that are well past their prime, because the ad breaks are really profitable. Grey’s Anatomy and The Simpsons come to mind.

This is cute because it ignores the part where a single American citizen has the carbon footprint of, like, 8 Nigerians. And, of course, it’s even cuter because we ignore the part where most pollution is caused by corporations refusing to a

I read the 6 Degrees book and basically didn’t leave the house for about 3 months and stopped looking for client work. My finances took a bit of a device. Thankfully my partner helped me out of it. So… I don’t know where that leaves us. The

Might depend on the model. Haiku doesn’t like to delegate unless you ask it to. I have a custom command for “delegate plan, delegate code, delegate review”, but launching it with Haiku gives me mediocre results.

That sounds very cool. It’s sometimes baffling that LLMs can’t use tools reliably. Serena and Semble both require some arcane instructions to coerce Claude Code into compliance. Just stop trying to pipe nonsense commands into each other, ma

Anthropic has sent out a newsletter explaining they were more or less adding 50% (even 100%?) of quota to everyone, due to some great deal they made. That might be it. I do get lots more usage lately.

My experience with Gemini and Sonnet are that refactors or TypeScript compilation errors can be solved by “have at it”, but with mixed results. Many TS issues go away with `as any/never`, and instructing the model to not do that doesn’

I don’t know why we keep platforming these people. Go interview a normal person with normal thoughts. Karp is one of the most vile, insensitive, and immoral people in charge of anything tech. Just ignore him and his antics.
