The top nav is completely broken for me.

Cerebras doesn't etch the model onto silicon though. They're basically just wafer scale GPUs. They're more flexible than etched silicon though because they can just run the next ve…

"Do your own research" is definitely a defensible position. No one is saying take Claude's output as fact. These people would still ask and waste your time without AI. The fact is,…

Literally just ignore these people if they don't get the message. Let them complain to their supervisor and hopefully their supervisor will bring up the fact that you asked them to…

"Hey, here's what I found. By the way I used Claude to get this info. It might be worth trying that yourself if you have similar questions, it's quite good at this in my experience…

I've seen two camps of people within the same company I work at. Some think AI is generating acceptable code. Others think it's generating slop. I sit in the middle a lot of the ti…

When you're in the trenches actually making code changes yourself, you get irritated and are driven towards improving the code as you implement new features. AI never does because …

I think they're saying that the people who aren't software developers are playing around with Claude Code. And that's not what their job is and it's not what they understand. It's …

I think of it this way. If AI could build the product alone, then why would it ever be worth more than the tokens you spent on it? I think this would hold true 99% of the time. It'…

In my real world use Luna is as useful to me as Sonnet. And it gets stuff done faster and follows my instructions more closely.

The port was line for line and full of unsafe code. It didn't prevent any bugs. They're not using Rust for its strengths.

A website shouldn't be pinning CPU or GPU. When people run a game they expect some sort of battery drain. People don't expect that some websites will thrash your CPU/GPU like a gam…

One LLM prompt can't get you $500K. Why would someone spend $500k instead of just prompting themselves?

Don't you just throw all the washing into the washing machine, wait for it to actually do the work, and then hang it all up afterwards? It's like a 15 minute job max.

Who said they're new? Also, you can encounter new segfaults in a codebase just by executing code paths you haven't seen before.

Comment #48970513
Segfaults were a thing with the Zig version. Purely based on the fact it's a line by line translation of the Zig code to unsafe Rust, all the Zig code that caused segfaults is goin…

As far as I can remember the origins of Bedrock are the original console releases which couldn't ship a JVM. So a whole new codebase was developed, and ultimately it was more perfo…

That's what half of people's AI developed projects feels like to me. I have colleagues using Openclaw, and having an entire team of agents managing their home infrastructure. And I…

They're just saying that like Suno Music, if you look closely the cracks show. They're not saying the music is AI generated.

Comment #48828487
That depends entirely on how you're using AI. If you're getting it to do all the hard thinking, then sure using the best model is probably always going to be better. But it's also …

I've went on a similar journey and did just end up going to back SQL. Mapping database rows to domain objects really isn't that painful and you only do it once. So not a big deal. …

Dunno, it seems like the exact kind of thing Claude would think up if you asked it to subtly alter the system prompt to hide this info. It's all a losing battle anyway.

It depends on where you're using AI. If you're working on a project for yourself or in a tiny company. Then sure, writing the code probably was your bottleneck. But at mid to large…
