    Haven’t ever seen a warning like that in KDE.

    I want to learn if it would one day be possible to engineer something like that. Unfortunately I think that even the theory is post-singularity territory, so... maybe in the 2030s?…

    Their stock price won’t matter once OpenAI launches the paperclippers.

    Not everybody uses squash and merge. Regular merge, I imagine, would work fine.

    Read the tests. Doing a pass where you just ask the AI to sanity-check the existing tests (against rules like “test against the spec, not the implementation” can also help.

    Will, it depends on the AI. Anthropic used to have a lecture-length system prompt for their models to explain this stuff—part of the secret sauce for Claude Code—and famously found…

    Using a third-party launcher (e.g. Prism) mostly fixes that nonsense, at least.

    Less efficient but faster, which is a fun combination. At least they seem to have improved FPS.

    It’s not about the LLM being modern or not. 3.5 Flash is fairly new, but it’s also a flash model. It’s not designed to be knowledgeable. People keep doing this. Pointing at the kno…

    Yeah, we’ve seen that as well.

    Though the graph is ten years old. Why is it so hard to find recent data? :-(

    25 years isn’t that long, but it’s more about the material. If you have metal studs inside a plastic handle, then the metal expands in the dishwasher and cracks the plastic. If the…

    Please don’t run them through the dish washer. Limited heat tolerance is common even for the really good ones.

    Seven plus-minus two, but the definition of “thing” is incredibly vague and depends on your life history to date.

    They do, but as usual with those, it wrecks all the decently mixed videos by making everything the same volume. Though as those are rare as hen’s teeth, perhaps you might as well.

    Not all fields interact with all other fields. You can think of them as a loosely coupled graph… There might be any number of graph components with no connectivity to our fields at…

    No, that’s mostly because there’s no capital market for building mid-sized businesses. Anthropic is past that. They’d have no trouble moving if they wanted to, except the USG could…

    The Norwegian way to eat cod liver is “squished between two flatbread, mixed with boiled potato and also cod”. Which is absolutely delicious, even for a kid; it’s one of the meals …

    There is. In Texas, if a field worker has a heart attack on a hot day it’ll be reported as a heart attack. In France, the same exact situation would be reported as a heat casualty …

    It’s too much code. Maybe companies are able to handle this, but as a solo dev it’s completely infeasible. I could just not use those deps, but then I won’t be able to build anythi…

    What does the linear no-threshold model say about air pollution from coal plants, anyway?

    Mythos and Fable are not the same model.

    But I thought Fable was the dangerous one?
