I always look at the suggested changes. Always. Not infrequently, LLMs want to put new methods in what I consider the wrong place. Not infrequently, the LLM requires pushback and admits it was over engineering something. Finally, if you can

Sure, I get it. On the other hand it is not like we (as people) never personify our tools. Take boats as the iconic example. Many languages place genders on nouns. I'll also say that it sure looks like a conversation to me when I use C

I'm not sure most people do hate llm use as users. I am very impressed, well more like stunned at where we have come in the last few year. I use Claude almost every day and I love the productivity gains it affords. What i will say thou

Perhaps, jsdocs might help here.

I thought most CEOs had come to the conclusion last week that AI was not increasing productivity.

I have a nice (nice to look at but not expensive) skeleton watch and I love it. I would never use a "smart" watch myself.

Perhaps you query lacks sufficient context.

As a counter opinion, I find Opus 4.7 to be great. It is my default model. The only thing I don't like is how verbose it while chatting. I have tried without success to make it more concise and would fall back to 4.6 if it was not prod

The article is all over the map. A script run by one person is "real" but implementing a front end is not?

Bad data makes you confidently wrong. No data means you understand that your decisions are made based on your intuition. It is much better to know the risks than to be unaware of them.

A visit is totally worth it just for the game that plays in the background!

I grew up in a city, my wife on a ranch that was several sections large. We have lived in large dense cities and we currently live on a "smaller" ranch. I have taken densely packed subways to work on one hand and walked home on my

Fascinating read. I know nothing about any of this neither the parties involved nor Copperhead though I had heard of Graphene. To that end, I wish the response included a pre-amble for those like me who were not familiar with what was going

My personal opinion here based on observations not empirical tested. 4.5 could generate code, but I often ran out of context and the results were regularly incomplete. The result was that I had to spend as much time proofing and debugging a

Every tracker is likely chomping at the bit to purchase your chats. I don't know but also would not be surprised to find out that every major player already sells this data. Cloud computing at some level is just an information broker e

On actual code, I see what you see a 30% increase in tokens which is in-line with what they claim as well. I personally don't tend to feed technical documentation or random pros into llms. Given that Opus 4.6 and even Sonnet 4.6 are st

At 15 mph it would take less than 2 seconds for a car at the back of a bus to reach the front of a bus. Are you suggesting that the driver of the bus was able to open and then close their door in less than two seconds? Alternatively, Are yo

While I acknowledge there is now a legality question around the use of "red light cameras". I have no sympathy for people who are not stopping for school busses: I can't stomach that the article frames this as "burden&qu

I'm not condoning vandalism but I can empathize with the feeling that this alien thing is in my personal space, is a motorized vehicle on the sidewalk, is just as likely to cause a fall that no one will be held accountable for, and is

So, you feel the people who are providing software for free now somehow owe you support as well now that it is so easy to build software? How about making the onus on you to fix the bugs with a PR or two in the open source product you use?

Why do you say they are not eating their own dogfood? That phrase seems to suggest something different to me than "crappy support". I'm not condoning crappy support but are there any 'at scale" SaaS platforms that a

Is it actually too big or is it a folding screen with all the implications of that at a $3k price tag?

Your company advises Fortune 500s based on a 3 week existence and a product you have not released. Impressive.

I've thought about this a bit and I can't really see why someone would want to write AI content here other than to spam ads but they are handled quickly. Does anyone see AI content with a clear motivation or agenda here? There are
