The quoted text says "slower". It does not claim that GC makes those languages slow overall. Are you arguing that GC is not inherently slower than other memory management strategie…

It's a long-standing tradition. Our forefathers famously said "NIMBY" to taxation without representation.

Is this something that the authors of SQLite actually claim? I don't think anyone else can decide what something is meant for.

Isn't Wright sort of famous for designing structures that leak when it rains? My understanding is that Falling Water House is a beautiful money pit.

There's a whole spectrum of employment between faceless corporations and personal side projects. AI will replace humans because giant business believe they can do the same work, no…

This was a discussion about LLM usage patterns. I'm not opposed to lunch breaks. I'm opposed to being required to take the equivalent of 12 lunch breaks a day while I wait for slow…

This thread started with me saying "we clearly have different goals" and then being told that I just need to hold the screwdriver differently...

How do you maintain a flow state during a lunch break? I'm looping with Claude on a scale of minutes. While you're waiting, I'm iterating.

We clearly have different goals. I want an LLM to review my code, not the other way around.

Have you heard of TigerBeetle? Being smart enough doesn't seem to be the primary factor. It's about having a strategy and the discipline to follow it. No type system will ever free…

If you're confident that Linux machines aren't going anywhere, the pass utility is a nice option.

I really appreciate the "it's okay to be weird" sentiment. It has never been easier to try out a crazy idea. We may as well embrace it and try to learn something.

Sure, just like AI enthusiasts seem to be unfamiliar with the concept of local maxima...

I've hiked in the mountains and I've swam in the ocean, and I'm perfectly content to live amongst the hills and streams of the Midwest. I suppose it's relative. I live on the east …

If you're reviewing the code yourself, then I don't think this article is about you.

I feel like I'm missing something here. Was this supposed to be a game? I just kept clicking and reading and clicking and reading. I finally gave up. If the goal is to tell a non-i…

It's awfully literary. It reads like James Joyce attempting to convey advice about effective leadership for technical teams. In my opinion, it's an obnoxious, pretentious approach …

I think "because they are helpful" is OP's point of contention. Tobacco isn't helpful, but it's a product that people spend money on.

SO has always had a pretty strong stance against opinion-based questions, but this is maybe the niche they should be exploring now. Humans still have a lot to say about the "best" …

Claude is just a tool. My team members are each free to choose the text editor or IDE that they are happiest with. In the near future, I hope to be able to say the same for coding …

Yeah, this was yesterday in the web version. I only did the one run, and only for a couple of levels, so I don't think I can give you any help reproducing it.

I did a quick run on the web version. I was able to sneak attack everything on the first two levels, which felt like a bug, but I'm honestly not sure. When I found a spear, I kind …

Because the goal isn't "keep this exact version of the app alive and running". The prototype is never the whole application. If your only metric is incidents, then yeah, don't ever…

This problem definitely predates AI coding agents, though it may be exacerbated by them. The article essentially concludes with the ancient advice of "plan to throw one away". Well…

I got excited about TUIs when I was exposed to the Bubble Tea framework for Go. I'm sure that Claude has accelerated the trend, but interesting things were already happening years …
