Not to mention, if it's seasonal for any reason then it's something that should be baked into the cyclical expectations already. It's like reporting that Spirit of Halloween employ…

> Was it level 5? of course not. You realize there are fully autonomous waymo cabs operating at "level 4" in several regions... today. Anybody can download the app and ride in them…

Nashville politics operate in an extremely narrow window. The local government has a degree of autonomy, but there are unspoken checks on it by a generally hostile state government…

The problems are 1) money is flowing so freely that you can't use the raise here as a signal of anything meaningful and 2) the industry (especially hardware) is in massive flux rig…

The "100x productive" thing is some kind of bogeyman. It's pretty clear these things are useful and helpful and the degree to which they are such continually improves, but putting …

I think the disconnect here is that you can't only retype the solutions. You have to already sort-of know what's going on and you have to also care to understand the gaps. So trans…

It's certainly an odd situation where Google is on the forefront of all these emerging technologies while the latest chatbots from OpenAI and Anthropic are getting breathless press…

> How would one position oneself as an individual investor if one believed this thesis? Buy and hold real estate, maybe? I don't think you can really short this because you can't t…

I'm not super familiar with this approach, but couldn't you just respond with an elaboration on how you don't understand a concept when you encounter it and guide the model in the …

IME "creating a good spec" (and good acceptance criteria) has always been one of the most valuable skills in... well, everything. The machine is really good at working the spec on …

> The real fix for this is to fix the stupid system we have, but for now it's what we're stuck with and this has a real impact you can't overcome locally. And to elaborate on the s…

To empathize a bit with the Basecamp employees, DHH has sort of slowly worked his way into the gutter racism that he displays openly now. Like a lot of his peers, the first Trump a…

The way I did it, I've got a convention where I store git checkouts in a specific directory on my laptop. I use the repo name as an argument and the wrapper script creates / shells…

I keep seeing these conceptual complaints about OpenCode but it's unreasonably effective, so it's difficult to justify any time spent in changing to something else. It hardly matte…

Yep, it's really only an option for a dedicated gaming PC (or a VM with the the GPU passed into it).

Doing a loop and having the model review its own earlier output tends to solve this stuff, and for code requiring good test coverage catches them before they even hit that phase. S…

This is the right idea IMO but I don't want to trust a third party tool for it either (no offense OP!). Ever since I started running coding agents with shell access I've jailed the…

I guess the downside of the lower barrier to entry to use these tools is the lack of basic understanding of exactly this sort of concept. This sort of thing is why I'm hopeful I'll…

"I'm not political" or "don't make it political" type posts on Musk-related topics are often signs that somebody agrees with the worldview that Musk espouses. I used to think the H…
