We have been working hard on the past two months implementing agents for different tasks. We started with Claude code, as we really liked working with hooks. However being vendor l…

While I like the self reflection from this article, I don't think his methodology adds up (pun intended). First there are two main axis where LLMs can make you more productive: spe…

Exactly, I had the same issue when I was younger. I thought if I read code I could not understand was because the other dev was a legend. Now its the opposite, I am amazed by code …

Claude Code is my favorite way to use LLMs for coding. However I feel what we really need is to have an open source version of it where you can pass any model and also you can comp…

Stars are just a signal. When I am looking at multiple libraries that do the same, I am going to trust more a repo with 200 starts that one with 0. Its not perfect, but I don't hav…

Where did you get the data that there has never been a profitable one? Not calling you out, but curious of where you are getting this data. I would expect that there have been mult…

The comparison isn't even close. TikTok's relationship with the Chinese government is well-documented, not "supposed". They are legally required to share data under China's Nationa…

I am all for preventing teen pregnancy, but the data sounds more like young people can't afford having children so they are waiting longer.

That used to be my flow, but I just added Avante to my Neovim and it has been a awesome for working with a single file. If I need to do something more high level or that requires m…

Could you share with me the link of the profile you saw? I did work with Blockchain in the past but this current SaaS has nothing to do with that.

We recently applied to the current YC batch and got rejected. Seeing this just made me die a little inside. We are a small SaaS that has very happy paying customers and a huge mark…

If you are not a software engineer, you can't judge the correctness of any LLM answer on that topic, nor you know what are the right questions to ask. From all my friends that are …

I strongly disagree with this statement, Golang is excellent for building backends and just the orchestration of all the services you are calling is better done in a typed/compiled…

While from a first instance, this package seems a bit overkill, I think the idea is interesting and is something that can be improved for Go. I also felt that Go errors where too b…

Its hard to take this article seriously when it does not provide any real technical argument and has typos such as "egineers".

Why should namecheap subsidize the cost? That makes 0 sense and I say it as a namecheap customer. I don't see how its fair for them to cover the cost and I don't want them to do so…

> The customers of those users absolutely do not want this. If I ever find out a company uses something like this, I'll no longer be doing business with them. I second this 100% Th…

I don't think that its bad for the motivated engineer, its just a trade off between expressiveness and simplicity. I personally find myself choosing go because I feel I am way more…

Wait, children?

Unfortunate, but it was pretty obvious this would happen. The blackouts lasting only 48 hours was a mistake anyways. The only way I see them changing course is if enough people: 1.…

I strongly relate to this. I built my desktop computer and I run arch as my daily driver. For my phone: I just want a device that works out of the box. I don't want to think about …

Are they trying to maximize their income in the next year or in their lifetime? I would honestly advice them to change their mindset from trying to maximize income, to maximizing l…

1. I try to break the problem into smaller problems. 2. Pick the hardest one from those smaller problems and apply step 2 until it can't be broken into smaller pieces. 3. Once I ha…
