unironically sama is probably one of the most honest players here after all, he is burning money and if/when they have achieved AGI they will ask it in how to make money. its a dif…

districts are diverse in hamburg, its a huge city-state. I live in the south, in harburg, which has a historically bad reputation but a lot of subdistricts here are in fact pretty …

Also living in Hamburg right now, AMA if you want to

this in fact is excellent articulated what I also strongly feel. went from decades of oldschool crafting by hand and got good at it, then went into vibecoding and the experience of…

just used mistral for a database/scraping creation tool and ended at <10k€ in token costs (via openrouter), beating gpt5.4-mini in output quality and speed and costs after actual t…

the very point is that theft means you no longer have something since someone else has. copying is you still have it and someone else now too. there is no harm done by copying, exc…

Wake me up when it does OCaml fine.

cursor feels so 2025 to me guys. these days zed is just way better for my macbook battery and with acp can talk literally to my installed claude code and codex CLI tools, plus thei…

Okay so if this model is half a year behind, so let’s say January opus pre-nerf, this is it. Inference is actually quite cheap for token costs, the frontier labs burn most of their…

wholeheartedly agree. even as a techie with decades of experience, the meta business world is a complete clusterfuck its unbelievable bad. yes they bought and assimilated things li…

Between professional Elixir, Go Rust and Node over decades now I am arriving actually at OCaml now. Using LLMs to actually teach it to me. Andd boy, a REAL type system is just some…

with web framewworks like actix or rocket itsd actually not much different to python flask or nodejs express or .... . but i am a cheap person and prefer to cram as much stuff onto…

I use both languages and in spirit you are right, btu in my experience its more nuanced. first of all the way inline unittests in the same file is a way to have very fast cycle tim…

lone wolf here too, can confirm. true fullstack (not only tech parts - from marketing to product to boring IT and financials) makers now have insane speedups, IF they previously di…

in fact engineering job openings are skyrocketing, just far beyond the big megacorps. AI was a neat excuse to correct the covid overgiring phases, now axes happened while lots of p…

well the worse it gets the closer the reset button comes. guillotine can and will end capitalism if people are affected too much, and they don't care about any logic when suffering…

Maybe I am in a minority position here, but despite me vibecoding for many months now (havent written a single line by hand and forced me todo so in the beginning), I still have my…

Maybe I am the only one thinking this, but there is a growing backlash against AI mindset plus a lot of people using the free chatgpt app for "googling" nowadays in parallel too, w…

to be blunt actual porn sites are hyper optimized and mostly have a polished user experience, even frontier level tech stuff going on at times. you know how onlie credit card payme…

Still anecdotal but the exact same coding task on the exact same repo (I clone from GitHub templates for projects) worked amazingly well in December with CC/Opus, couldn’t accompli…

I get what youre trying to say but this is actually a bad picture to defend. product and engineering should go hand in hand, with one side informing the other. Engineers sctually g…

Just switched into a CPTO role in a industry I have limited domain knowledge about (gastro) and first week I build up some automated world modelling for my small company to get a h…

That’s statistically just luck then - plenty of outages this year already in Berlin time during work hours - I do remember the forced breaks with colleagues for sure.

My max20 sub is sitting unused since april mostly now, codex with 5.4 (and now 5.5) even with fast mode (= double token costs) is night and day. Opus is doing convincing failures a…

Essentially they should hire a few of the old school product guys from Apple. Best me to it, but the obsession on UX and quality from earlier Apple is exactly what they urgently ne…
