I deploy all my code on linux and have been thinking about switching from windows to linux for my daily driver. But even I dread that. It´s as if linux has tried as hard as possible to make every single little thing as complicated as possib

Speak for yourself. If you find the agentic workflow to be more fun, more power to you. I for one think writing code is the rewarding part. You get to think through a problem and figure out why decision A is better than B. Learning about va

You can be directionally right but still lose a whole lot of money as an investor for decades on end even when you're right about the eventual outcome. Predicting future outcomes is orders of magnitude easier than predicting the exact

my 2 cents: I'm one of these people that could possibly use your tool. However, the website doesnt give me much info. I'd urge you to add some more pages that showcase the product and what it can do with more detail. Would help ca

I still write vanilla PHP with SQL queries. And with all the modern PHP features, things have never been faster or more joyful to work with. I honestly feel bad for people who fall victims to complexity. It burns you out when all you need i

Models are NOT search engines. Even if LLMs were trained on the answer, that doesn't mean they'll ever recommend it. Regardless of how accurate it may be. LLMs are black box next token predictors and that's part of the issue.

The entire repo is 2-3 array access functions. Why is it even posted here? No harm in trying to learn but there is nothing in here that is even close to PyTorch.

I used to do it like that and it worked really well but I changed the flow to where exceptions are actually part of the control flow of the app using PHP's set_exception_handler(), set_error_handler() and register_shutdown_function().

Amazing article. I was under the misapprehension that temp and other output parameters actually do affect caching. Turns out I was wrong and this explains why beautifully. Great work. Learned a lot!

I was asked for a passport photo when I tried to open an account. They literally asked for a passport photo immediately after the signup form. Like WHAT? I couldn't believe my eyes. The most insane shit I've ever seen.
