Dubious. The only signal this gives that in aggregate people use AI. On individual basis, presence of em dashes means nothing.

I don’t think that we live in an era where a hardware update can bring you down to 3s from 30s, unless the employer really cheaped out on the initial buy. Now in the tfa they compare laptop to desktop so I guess the title should be “you sho

What exactly here is an “open format”? This is just a text file containing stuff. As many have said we have README, CONTRIBUTING… Unless every tool is actually going to use it, this is yet another standard piled up.

they are adding Preview to iOS. I haven’t tried it yet but if it works like on macOS then most file formats should be handled rather well. Saddest is the removal of slideover, ultimately that’s the only multi-tasking feature I really used i

> Everyone describes AI apps the same way: "Cursor for X." First time I hear this phrase, and I’ve read a healthy amount of articles about AI.

That said, the complaint is coming back. Namely because most new movies use an incredible amount of CGI and due to the time constraints the quality suffers. As such, CGI is once again becoming a negative label. I don’t know if there is an A

I guess hardware being able to run a local model will eventually get cheap enough, but for a lot of people even buying an Apple device or something with a good enough GPU is prohibitive.

Definitely agree on the listening and just asking questions. It helps to have one or two factoids about many subjects to sneak into any conversation.

While I’ve yet to meet somebody into fishing or hunting, I agree about cars and sports. Unfortunately since I have interest in neither it can be hard to fit in sometime. Weirdly, as somebody non interested in these common topics it also fee

As a user I want to be able to save the page and read it later. Admittedly even with .war format and other attempts, this was possible only for a brief time. Now we have a crop of readability converters because even print to pdf is useless

The point of that question is to see what the candidate will talk about. If they start talking about refraction so be it.

They’re not. They’re good at many things and bad at many things. The more I use them the more I’m confused about which is which.

My worry with any agent calling is that the other party will just hang up. Why? Because the power is on their side and they know it.

The fact that the information was passed from the agent to the executing person is something that could be done today and isn’t. Any call center systematically asks to repeat all information, any administration asks for papers and all its d

Wait, how can you not copy paste from a terminal application? Or is this about to have break-line aware copy in panes (such as in tmux)?

For me the problem with the vision is that stuff I’d like to exist is so far above the capabilities of AI (rather complex games) that I don’t even want to try it. And for stuff that I build and use they are pointless because they don’t acce

Some people (I suspect a lot of young and motivated developers) think that UI development should be easy and elegant. But consider that a UI is 100% state management and side effects (so fundamentally imperative and asynchronous). On top of

I see the browser as the universal runtime. Which happens to also have okay hardware support (video, audio, etc).

For me the promise of SPAs has nothing to do with fluidity and all to do with having a separate data API and separate frontend (that can be native or web or both) That’s why I don’t like SSR mixed with client side rendering. Either do a web

For that to happen imo: - browsers need to start supporting a better language (it could be typescript without backwards compatibility for things like var and function scoping) - browsers need to eventually provide a way to polyfill JavaScri

If you burn 2k calories daily exercising you are no longer gen pop. The case still stands, statistically nobody is out-exercising a bad diet.
