I haven't seen anyone else integrate LLMs properly with email and calendar other than Google. I had an interesting experience: I was taking out a loan for some solar panels and there were some complicated instructions across multiple e

The ship has sailed, but I can understand artists feeling that no matter how any AI is trained prospectively, it was only made possible because the methods to do so were learned through unethical means - we now know the exact model architec

Sure, yes, the fact that the US now is in a weak position built up over decades is just the reality that has to be faced. The path out of it is painful - starting with reducing US debt, and using a full complement of measures to diversify s

It seems to me the core issue at hand is that Trump has made a grave strategic error in terms of who really holds more cards in the trade battle, specifically with China. This bond lever - the threat to abruptly shut off US debt supply - is

it's true, but if the scenarios are rare you can treat them as outliers and have the vehicle switch to a "safety mode" or similar. Even human drivers effectively do that (or should!).

Will they still push all the native commits once they release? I think it's OK if they do the dev internally, but if they just release source snapshots and we lose visibility of the dev process that occurred to get there, that will be

So much of our fundamental scientific progress has been made by people who were considered crazy and their ideas delusional. Even mundane software engineering is done with layers of code review and automated tests because even the best engi

One of the reasons I keep doing it is because I know if I fall off the wagon it will very quickly translate into that situation. As long as I have everything set up like the actual devs do and know all the processes, it isn't a lot of

Should managers know about what they are managing in general? I know most people will say yes but many will argue they don't need to actually do it to have that knowledge. But my experience is that with software and IT, things just mov

I consider pretty much anything written pre-LLM about learning languages to be dated these days. LLMs don't necessarily help you learn but the perform a complete transformation on the challenge of doing it to an entirely different prob

I think it's just a broader definition of "know how to do". If you can write a test for it then I'm going to argue you know "how" to do it in a bigger picture sense. As in, you understand the requirements and i

Kotlin feels like the Go 2.0 that the author is looking for in many ways. It is interesting that Kotlin hasn't fully taken off in the way you might expect. Reflecting on my own reasons : it comes down to that I'm not particularly

Yeah at this point it's almost jumping on a new hype bandwagon to "come up" with the idea of ambient audio based AI. The kicker here though is since it's all driven by a phone in your pocket (a) it will either kill your

There must be a nuanced distinction b/w short sleep duration and the other sleep quality metrics since nearly all of them likely cause short sleep duration as a side effect. I wonder how the researchers disentangled this.

I have to admit, 4 generations in, 1.8x is decent but slightly disappointing all the same. I'd really like to justify upgrading, but a $4k+ spend needs to hit greater than 2x for me to feel it's justified. 1.8x is still "kind
