As someone who's been "vibe-coding" successfully at work I can say that what made me a believer in AI tools is agentic instructions. It is the difference between not being able to accomplish much and actually getting stuff do

I think the worry here is that the rates were maintained higher for longer using bad data not some communist conspiracy theory.

I was in the market looking for a used SUV for my wife to haul around our kids last year. Dealing with dealers who wouldn't budge even a few hundred off the inflated listing prices, the interest rates on financing and then the insane i

Yeah it was incredible in the beginning because it was so novel. Now it's just annoying. Half of the dialogue is repeated and it takes forever to get a point across. Never used NLM, but I wonder if that's something that can be tun

Yes, all the time. I use ChatGPT to help me get a general sense of direction when I'm learning something new. Once I have a few potential paths to explore, I combine regular Google searches with ChatGPT prompts to make sure my understa

I heard awful things about Cocomelon. My 17-months-old doesn't watch TV much, but when she does it's usually old Soviet cartoons lol.

IMHO, you're gonna struggle if you move anywhere else from AWS. We're migrating to GCP and there are gaps all over the place.

My parents have had Google Fiber since 2011 or 2012. It's been a joy. The uptime has been great and the price has pretty much remained the same for 1Gig. In Los Angeles I pay $90/mo for 100mbps Spectrum connection which drops once

I got my first programming job in 2008, seemingly right before the wave of hiring freezes. I dodged the bullet back then, but I wish I could compare that time to the past two years. That said, it feels very rough out there. Just last week,

Every technological advancement that we've seen in software engineering - be it in things like Postgres, Kubernetes and Cloud Infrastructure - came out from truly novel ideas. AI seems to generate outputs that appear novel but are they

Maybe I'm missing something vital, but how does anything that we've seen AI do up until this point or explained in this experiment even hint at AGI? Can any of these models ideate? Can they come up with technologies and tools? No

Yep. Grew up in the 90s Russia. Every spring when the snow melted you had bodies show up in nearby forests. It was such a common thing people started calling them snowdrops (after the first flower of spring). Everyone tried to keep cash in

In my experience -- I'm a staff engineer -- it's basically a senior engineer in a technical leadership role, but not a manager. I spend 50% of my time working on code and providing technical direction for seniors. The rest of the
