This is even a more interesting idea! I guess similar to the teacher assistant system in higher education. One version of this could be students a year ahead teaching the previous year's students. In elementary school it might be tri

If you had the budget for two teachers, I’d utilize them as one teaching in the traditional way, and the other spending 1:1 times with each student (20 students in a class → 1-1:30 hr / student).

Separately, I love the word “bloke”. I wish it would take off here in the US.

You are correct. I apologize. I seemed to have read the next pragma’s depreciation notice! Aside from this - SQLite has tons of cool features, like the session extension.

For one it seems to be deprecated.

What do you think is missing? I'm a big SQL fan and the idea of direct SQL to X seems appealing at least on the surface.

Most of the software we interact with is at the end of the day some db tables, queries to read/write, and some ui to read/write. There have been so many times I wished I could just do my own db joins on the underlying db to get th

What’s interesting here is that with AI, all our interfaces should evolve away from previous generation rigid forms / buttons / tables etc. towards something more fluid / dynamic / “natural”. Yet all the AI coding is ge

I did the EBC trek last year and at ~4400 meters, we heard about a local Nepalese woman dying from complications of AMS in the local clinic. There might be fishy things going on with the rescues, but the health risks are real.

Related, I’d love an editor that’d let me view/edit identifier names in snake_case and save them as camelCase on disk. If anyone knows of such a thing - please let me know!

Could you share some samples / pointers on how you do this?

Does anyone actually compute / use this key feature? Or do you rely on implicit caching? I wish HN had a comment with a poll feature.

Google Maps or any other aggregator has an inherent interest in market participant diversity. A lot of suppliers would mean competition, which results in ad spend, which result in higher revenue for the aggregator. Same with Google Search

25 years ago Perl allowed you to express what was in your head 10x more concisely as in other mainstream language (which have since caught up with some of the features). This was not the best when it came to others (or even yourself 6 month

What are some examples that you can’t express in json schema?

I wonder if these stay in the prefix cache?

Awesome experiment!! I did a version of this where the AI writes tools on the fly but gets to reuse them on future calls, trying to address the cost / performance issues. Migrations are challenging because they require some notion of

The trouble is not populating it. The trouble is that tables, even though structured semantically, give you absolutely no functionality. There are no search, filter, sort, or selection features that you get.

A resource that would benefit the entire community is a set of ballpark figures for what kind of performance is "normal" given a particular hardware + data volume. I know this is a hard problem because there is so much variation

The pixel to sounds would pass through “reading” so there might be information loss. It is no longer just pixels.

Lots of caveats here in the following statement: if your application is not fully leaning in to frontier model capabilities, you are probably building a previous generation product.

When I think about a problem, I consciously explore a tree (or graph) of possibility chains. This requires a mental space to keep track of “state”. Sometimes jotting things down on paper helps if I can’t keep it all in my head. The proce

That’s funny. Yeah. I wrote this on the fly. It can use multiple passes to add layers of self reference / depth.

I feel like this could be adopted for your homegrown "whatever" framework (eg: UI framework, Auth framework, …) Congratulations on getting hired to this team! You probably count yourself lucky, but don't. We had been trying

The average is $x. But that's global which means in some places like the US it is 10x. And in other less wealthy areas it is 0.1x. There is also the strange paradox that the people who are willing to pay are actually the most desira

I often wished for a Google Sheets like service that had an easier to use API and a bit more control over the schema. A cross between sheets and a headless CMS.

Nature _is_ technology. It’s far too advanced for us to understand. And perhaps due to not-invented-here syndrome, we tend to try and recreate it (crudely).
