You are trying to control a system that is inherently chaotic. You can probably get some where by indeed running a task 1000 times and looking for outliers in the execution time or token count. But that is of minimal use and anything more a

But it’s not just about coding quickly but also correctly. Coding LLMs do not solve the problem of it hallucinating, using antiquated libraries and technologies and screwing up large code bases because of the limited context size. Given a w

a) Big data is more than just the size of the data. It's about how you treat that data i.e. instead of doing expensive and brittle up-front RDBMS modelling you instead dump it all into a data lake and figure out how to handle the data

MongoDB as a company is growing 20% y/y and 2B in revenue. So very far from being a legacy product. I still use it for new projects because (a) Atlas is genuinely a solid offering with a great price point for startups and (b) schema-le

People used to tell me all the amazing things no-code and low-code was able to do as well. And at the end of the day they went nowhere. Because (a) they will never be perfect for every use and (b) they abstract you from understanding the pr

They never said it was useless. You just invented that straw man in your head. 3D printing is largely used for prototyping where its lossy output is fine. But using it for production use cases requires fine tuning it can be 99.9% reliable.

People said the same about VB style coding then low-code and now AI. They have been wrong every time and will continue to be wrong.

Cost is irrelevant when compared to the salaries of the people using them so they will do basic cost controls but nothing too onerous. And cost is never a reason to prevent solutions being built and deployed. And most enterprises aren'

Only an insignificant minority of companies are running their own AI LLM models. Everyone else is perfectly fine using whatever Azure, GCP etc provide. Enterprise companies don't need to be the fastest or have the best user experience.

Yes. And now they have a massive vested interest in drawing startups into the space.

Internet only became a fad once it was already large and had tens of millions of users. I remember the pre-Web days of Usenet and BBS and no one thought those were trendy. AI is far more akin to crypto.

Those large number of outdated dependencies are in the LLM "index" which can't be rapidly refreshed because of the training costs. MCP would allow it to instead get this information at run-time from language servers, dependen

Yes. The top performers in each batch have offers before demo day and some won't even present. There is a secret funnel from YC to a select group of top tier VCs.
