I think the point is that: A. not everyone on your team is using prettier B. not everyone is using the same config/agrees on what it should be

Out of interest, what issues did you have with Linear?

Works in China just fine.

So there's a disconnect between what you're saying and what others and myself have experienced in China even recently. You appear to be saying that it's not possible to use a VPN to bypass the GFW, but I apologise if I have m

Pretty sure the ad companies are already working on this with OpenAI et. al.

These UK government petitions require a response after 10k signatures and are considered for a debate in parliament after 100k. While you are still right in the sense that the government often tries to slip out of that, it's worth noti

While you are correct in the literal sense, I think the point is still valid. The powers that be decided they need to expand Ofcom's scope. For them this is one of the many ways they exert control and thus are interested in maintaining

This is how interviews should be conducted. Both as an interviewee and an interviewer I have had the best experiences with this style. I'd love to hear if anyone has critiques of this style.

I'm glad you shared this, I had been considering Anthropic but this really leaves a sour taste.

I actually think to some extent the ideas you shared are exactly what this article is questioning In particular some things that stood out to me: > No cafe owner will enjoy ... I don't know about this specific case, but I'll be

Yeah, given that I'm surprised the number isn't higher. Also there's this note: > Dogs seldom kill humans directly. Rather, they are primarily a vector that transmits rabies

I thought the same, seems obvious to me but I think a lot of people are still following the food pyramid and "all fat is bad" propaganda. Although on a perhaps more humourous note: if bread, croissants and sugary fruit is consider

Ah this is great, in combo with something like superwhisper you can use voice for longer queries.

Genuinely curious to hear more about (2.), has trust's anti-fragility been studied and/or where did this view come from?

I definitely catch myself reaching for the LLM because thinking is too much effort. It's quite a scary moment for someone who prides themself on their ability to think.

As always on here, a lot of people appear to act as if there are universal truths about our craft. I would posit that the exact enviroment you are in changes massively what is correct, what is a good rule of thumb and what is a bad practice

I would be sceptical about such a unique evolutionary adaptation occurring in such a short time period. _The_ ice age (the last one) was just yesterday in evolutionary terms.

Zed, unless you are on Windows. VSCode sucks on the performance front, which is why Sublime was still popular. Now Zed has taken that niche (while also having a lot of modern features).

Zed's selling point is performance

by rglynn 2y ago
IMO the main thing going for Sublime was performance, since VScode lacks in that area. Unfortunately, Zed now exists and I see no reason to use Sublime other than habit/specific use cases.

Yes that's a good way to understand it

I suppose one shouldn't be surprised that an LLM-adjacent technology is treated like magic. I wonder though, for cases where you genuinely are trying to match like to like, rather than question to answer, is vector embeddings with cosi

Hopefully because it has predictive power. Scientific consensus is a proxy for that, but lets not mistake the proxy for the actual thing.

How is the work culture in Japan these days? Is it possible to find a company that doesn't have their peculiar (read "awful") work culture?

Japan, although both of these are taken to the opposite extreme.
