It's fine to make a project that will only be interesting if people choose to contribute, and it's fine if people want to contribute.

I wonder how well a coding agent could be out Apple silicon programs to older Intel chips.

Your model/harness will indiscriminately do web searches to get answers. I believe that’s where the real risk is.

There needs to be a simple feature to wipe your phone and then restore to a point and time. That’d be really convenient.

I don’t think concentration risk is itself overly concerning. The nature of a market cap weighted index means it will always be heavy on whatever is currently trending. You’ll cert…

I never appreciated a proper muffler until I didn't have one. I was driving a 27-year-old Honda Civic, and the rusty muffler fell off one day. On the way to go get it fixed, the ty…

What are people using in Canada? SMS?

Fun fact: Ryanair owns its fleet outright, and (currently) buys all of its new planes from cash flow. Pretty unusual for a major airline.

What if you don’t filter at all? What if you just interviewed 10 random people? They’re probably all smart enough on some level.

How about implementing a prepaid system where you set your budget, and if you exceed it, everything just pauses until you pay more?

This is my own personal experience as a senior engineer. I hired my first ever intern for myself this past week for a personal. Rather than expecting someone who is experienced to …

Open source models are not immune to a different form of restriction either. I recently learned that China is restricting travel for AI engineers living in China. https://www.reute…

This is somewhat impressive, but can you reverse a binary tree?! https://www.quora.com/Whats-the-logic-behind-Google-rejectin...

4.3T could be the cost of a dozen of eggs by 2040.

I visited the Philippines in December and January and it was great. The highlight of my trip was learning to scuba dive in Mindoro. Highly recommend a visit.

My experience has been there’s more “what did it make and does it work?” overhead. It’s like a junior developer throwing stuff over the wall and I’m responsible for seeing if it st…

It’s a list of the 500 largest profitable companies. Gotta make some bottom line $$$ to be included. At least that’s how it’s worked in the past.

I’m guessing the Neo attracts a lot of new Apple customers, many of which will become subscribers of higher margin Apple services & apps in the App Store.
