I don't know, 12,000 USD a month is a steep price for having someone vibe code frontend features for me.

I don't know, I find AI still misses the mark so much for stuff that's not happening inside a well constrained framework with very specific guardrails and boundary conditions. Ever…

When will we see the end of ads disguised as tech opinion pieces?

Which manufacturer was that?

Coming up with solutions isn't so difficult, getting everyone behind one is the hard part. Obviously easier if you're one of the two biggest AI companies in the (Western) world.

I think Valve is just going to kill Xbox in a couple of years. Basically Microsoft is planning to make the next Xbox an "ordinary" Windows computer with a different UI as well as v…

There's this great blog post by Joel Spolsky from 2000 [1], where he essentially argues that controlling your environment makes you happy. He writes about his summer job in a baker…

Interesting point about "letting go". I hear that quite a lot, which I find surprising. In IT, when new technologies like cloud computing emerge people always need to adapt their w…

Oh for vibe coding small scripts it's great. Experience of people with AI can vary, I don't see what attitude has to do with this, at this point I have probably spent thousands of …

Takes me back to when I was working on Josephson junctions (JJ) as a student, I-V curves were the first thing we did when characterizing a junction. JJ I-V curves were tricky due t…

Just curious how much folks here spend for LLM subscriptions personally, i.e. not paid for by your employer if you have one or your own company, but purely for your own pleasure. P…

Interesting that on one hand the valuation of these AI providers is based on the assumption that all code (and everything else producing digital artefacts) will be written using AI…

Corporations will be quite happy with really simple features if they're packaged right. I'm selling software that mostly does things that a good programmer could whip up in a coupl…
