I... what? Guys I think .gov got hacked. Cause the alternative is we are on the weird timeline. Can someone confirm we are not on the weird timeline?

I liked this article because I think it is a fairly charitable "strongman" take of the "pure" engineering camp from someone who identifies with the other camp. That being said, there is an objective way out of this trap

To your point, I assume the "polyglot" part was referring to the arguments this would spawn in the comment section

Can they splice these? Surely the don't have to run a whole new cable?

Often terribly written, I am likewise concerned with dangling participles.

I still use em dashes -- I just do it poorly and throw in lots of typis.

Man, part of me wonders if the same AI arguments are playing out across the criminal underworld. Like, are some criminals afraid of their jobs getting automated? And the old school guys are like, "AI just makes slop crime". And ar

I assumed Uiua was "the same" but this is the first I'm hearing the experience might be different. I will check it out, thanks!

The three things I have repeatedly failed to learn, they just don't seem to stick for me: Dvorak, Specter[1] (the Clojure library), and APL. So I appreciate these tips whenever I find them. My issue with APL is I was never able to tur

So I'm in the "MCP is probably not a great idea" camp but I couldn't say "this is how it SHOULD be done", and the author makes great criticisms but falls short of actual suggestions. I'm assuming the autho

It's been good for making 3D printing doodads I need for around the house. Happy to let others use my 1-off flange shim thingy. But aside from that this is a very good warning to be aware of.

Whoa a leaderless consensus protocol sounds pretty revolutionary!! So many question -- do you have any resources on this you could share?

Just to clarify, I meant the rhetorical technique was being employed by the author of the article. He's downplaying the "AGI race" in order to normalize and validate the byproduct of the hype bubble to be as "normal and

"I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him..." A rhetorical technique as old as dirt, but apparently still effective.

Very nice! I love this sort of polyglot feature cross-pollination. My CL isn't as strong as my Clojure, I can't tell if the persistent vector implementation implements finger tries w/reference sharing or not, but will be ver

Nice! I will check these out. Hoping a few of them are pure CSS.

So for everyone hating on Daisy and Tailwind, what is the alternative? I do my best to use vanilla CSS, BEM style, with SCSS preprocessing, but it's not incredibly intuitive, it's apparently hard for most "full stack" de

Wow. Delightful. I'm reaching that jaded mid-career stage where software DEFINITELY does not seem magical anymore -- more like a collection of broken promises about the magic that could have been -- and this was a great reminder that

This is a good one. Forget AGI, I'd settle for an LLM that when doing Clojure doesn't spew hot trash. Balancing parens on tab complete would be a nice start. Or writing sensible ClojureScript that isn't reskinned JavaScript w

Granted the "OpenAI is not a monolith" comment, interesting that use of AI assisted coding was a curious omission from the article -- no mention if encouraged or discouraged.
