It's the first time I've seen this put forward, I thought the effects of occupation were obvious and undeniable. To me at least there is a clear influence in art/music/cinema, technology, and food. Though over time, it f

Using minority report as an example of a good policing system is a bit unsettling.

That's true, but TBP has been going pretty strong for over 2 decades. It can be hard to totally shut something down, if people want it.

Labor costs are lower, but rising, and already high enough that automation can be appealing. The Chinese government is also pretty good at finding things for people to do, so I doubt that's a factor. Go to any big park in a city and se

You've emphasized this point more than once, but I don't think it's a good counterargument to the GP. It is equally valid to say that they have explicitly (voluntarily, knowlingly) chosen to accept donations for their work. B

I know what "Day 1 CPT" means and am specifically curious about real abuse of the system at Cal. In my opinion, it would have to be obvious and fairly extreme to take action over, because there are issues that dwarf whatever impac

You said "They are simply not encouraged to circumvent their program of study and go to work under the guise of "CPT."" This implies that you are familiar with the system and aware of how it's abused, so presumably

In an abstract sense, yes. Compilers let programmers work at a higher level of abstraction. LLMs bring it to an even higher level, though the abstraction is much leakier. For the time being, a good understanding of programming and domain kn

I think the point isn't that you'll necessarily build a great browser (or LLM), but the experience will benefit you in other ways.

Sol adds comments when I use it, but it's not nearly as verbose as Opus 5/Fable. For the latter I'll often include an example of a comment it wrote, along with my own rephrasing, and tell it that "future readers will und

That's exactly what I mean.

It requires a different but somewhat overlapping set of skills, and the barrier to entry is much lower. It's neat that 7 year olds can make games, but they're probably not publishing polished and marketable products.

I've heard some variant of "we built this thing", which I think is valid. I'm not sure how I feel about anthropomorphizing a coding agent at this point though, which is what you're implying.

I think in that case it's fair to say you created the painting with the artist, even if the artist should get majority credit. I don't like the analogy though, to me it feels more like you're a project manager directing a tea

I see the claim made somewhat commonly here.

Somebody is doing it, given all the ad ridden free YouTube download sites that exist.

I picked up the 128gb version when it was $2,199 and it runs Qwen 3.6 reasonably well with a 128kb context. Not very useful for complex tasks but it can handle some web stuff.

They're talking about modern games running on screens with high refresh rates.

I've built a few little games for myself both with and without AI, and completely agree. AI can help prototype an idea faster, or clone something very specific, but it can't make your control scheme feel good, invent a unique mech

I used the IRS free fillable forms this year and it was much easier than I expected, including contractor, investment income, and foreign income declarations.

You adjust pretty quickly. Taking away compiler error messages would be fun though.

There's a bunch of stuff I include, depending on the project. Some general ones are commenting style and coding standards. In theory it should be able to do it without that by looking at the repo style, but I haven't found that to

How ofter are you switching tips? It's been a while since I did any real soldering, but I don't remember often needing to switch in the middle of a session.

To make this claim, wouldn't you need to understand the meaning of the script? It's probably not about monads, but you don't know for sure.

Why? I don't have a porch at home, and it's too hot to sit outside and read.

So you think the Vaporfly prototypes Kipchoge wore in 2018 placebo'd him into crushing the world record by 78 seconds?

You don't need to be competing on the world stage to enjoy some of the benefits of Alpha flys or those pumas. 500 for the new Adidas does seem a little silly though.

I usually don't mind, but tend to split reviews into two types. Either I understand the context and can quickly do an in depth review, or I have to take some time to actually learn about the code by reviewing the surrounding systems, e
