On Dvorak, WASD never works; game designers should use arrow keys or find a lower-level way to access key events that doesn't depend on the software layout.

It's interesting to look at the top-ranked feature request, but you should also take it with a grain of salt. The demand for a particular feature might be expressing a deeper need or gap in the product. If you just blindly implement fe

Agreed. One useful tip is to have Cursor break up large files into smaller files. For some reason, the model doesn't do this naturally. I've had several Cursor experiments grow into 3000+ line files because it just keeps adding. O

All true, but a huge portion of their economy comes from selling us goods.

I love it when capitalists complain about capitalism working as intended. Everyone wants a free market until they're just not good enough to compete. Then the whining starts.

China legitimately should be scared—Trump is willing to hurt them even if it hurts the US more. They are not dealing with a rational actor. I'm kind of surprised they are allowing him to continue.

Your prediction seems to be coming true! For my part, I’m still shorting TSLA, and needless to say, it’s going well. Thanks for the nudge to put my money where my mouth is.

This is seriously impressive! Just curious, how do you have the time to do all these deep-dives, and how can people give you money??

I've tried out Claude Code a few times, and it seems to work fine, but not noticeably better than Cursor. And replacing my use of Cursor would add up to significantly more than $20/mo in Claude Code. So why wouldn't I continu

I appreciate that you're super attuned to this frothy space, but not everyone cares about learning all the many personalities in the ecosystem… even people who care about this stuff

Yeah, the author needs to get off X/Twitter. At this point posting to X is like driving around in a Cybertruck with a bumper sticker reading "I Approve of the Current Situation"

Is Python execution even a rounding error in the full execution time for a LangChain flow?

I'm bullish on agents, but I do wonder what this agent could possibly be doing to justify a $240k salary, which is around market rate for a CEO at an SMB. It would need to be generating leads and closing sales, or doing the day-to-day

I hear you—I also have a tiny kitchen, but there happened to be a carveout for a microwave, which we replaced with a toaster oven. But I grill all my bread on the frying pan, because it this is the objectively superior method. :)

Also true, but how many people are buying toasters in 2025? I would bet that air fryers and toaster ovens outsell toasters 10:1. Still, I think this is a great portfolio piece. The designer should keep going, and amass a little collection o

This sent me down a rabbit hole reading about the author's style of having an "Arena allocator," [0] which was fascinating. I often did something similar when writing ANSI C back in the day—allocate a big enough chunk of memo

Is there ever a meaningful difference between a Substack post and AI slop?

That’s how a lot of moderates feel apparently, which is how Trump was able to win. I guess we’ll find out if we even have parties (or a country) in 2028.

I agree completely… Usually when I catch it doing this kind of hallucination, it's inventing an API or syntax that is far more clear and intuitive than the actual syntax.

If you like absurdist humor, go into the OpenAI playground, select 3.5-Turbo, and dial up the temperature to the point where the output devolves into garbled text after 500 tokens or so. The first ~200 tokens are in the freaking sweet spot

Or maybe they're just getting better at it, or developing better taste. After switching to Claude, I can't go back to ChatGPT's overly verbose bullet-point laden book reports every time I ask a question. I don't think th
