This is the same visionary that: - Renamed a well known brand. - Wasted billions of dollars on cartoonish third grade glitchy and buggy VR world claiming it's the future. And now he's all in on AI and now models are closed sources

Jonathan Blow wrote his own game enginee and for that he wrote his own programming language. He went through straight recursive descendant parser and said same thing. I think compiler courses teach from yacc, bison etc that's where thi

Strange to read that C++ can be someone's favorite programming language. Only thing that goes for C++ is that it has acceptable (not straightforward) C interop. I don't like C# and X++ because the language surface is huge but if y

Gemini feels deep and philosophical. Especially for product management. Tell him you're a product manager and we're a team of two. But regular reminder - All LLMs can be wrong all the time. I only work with LLMs in domains I'

Would the UUID v7 be more collision proof? Hard to say because it takes time into account but then the number of entropy bits are reduced hence the UUID generated exactly at the same time have more chance of a collusion because number of en

You learn all the technical details only to harm people like that instead of making a modest and honest living. Shame on your existence basically.

This is one of the most insightful comment I've read on the subject in a a while minus the code review. All the described use cases are good enough for AI except code review which is hit or miss. But agentic coding is a snake oil.

Never outsource your auth no matter what unless you're vibe coding and it doesn't matter. If that's the case, don't put auth in at all because it's just you anyway or just use vibe coded password lookups from databa

Here's for the AI supremacists: Let's assume AI is 10x perfect than humnas in accuracy and produces 10x less bugs and increases the speed by 1000x compared to a very capable software engineer. Now imagine this: A car travels at a

I already like it better than Framework with Framework having a better philosophy of reusability and upgradability. Basically I am undecided. Both are too good.

We can build all the scaffolding around but I assure you that the LLMs aren't perfect rule following machines is the fundamental problem here and that would remain. Give it a few more months and I'm sure you'll see some of wh

The argument about type system is absurd anyway. The types in a program aren't a universal vocabulary that the LLM would already know about like the words of English language. They are unique to each program and domain so an LLM can&#x

Nothing unusual. There's not an AI company (mostly AI wrappers) on planet in which Y Combinator hasn't sprinkled their cash already. I'd go as far to say that it's impossible at this point to form an AI company without Y

This could be a subjective feeling with no real data to back it up. People say same about Go as well that it's type system and limited feature set makes it the best AI friendly language but there too, it just seems like a hunch rather
