Easily 5-10x or even more in certain special cases (when it'd take me a lot of upfront effort to get context on some problem domain). And it can do all the "P2"s that I'd realistic…

Not to downplay the issue you raise but I haven't noticed this. Every iteration I make on the prompts only make the request more specified and narrow and it's always gotten me clos…

I work at OpenAI (not on Codex) and have used it successfully for multiple projects so far. Here's my flow: - Always run more than one rollout of the same prompt -- they will turn …

Greg had been writing deep systems code every day for many many house for the past few years.

(Former Meteor core dev here) This is cool! Does Horizon also solve "optimistic updates"? If so I'd love to learn more details. For comparison, Meteor keeps a local datastore that …

Hi, I wrote this blog post. We were trying to keep our API surface area small with one way to load data into components, but you're right -- we should probably /also/ add a ES6 bas…

Some people use Angular in Meteor and seem to prefer it over a MEAN stack. http://angularjs.meteor.com

At Meteor, we're building a complete open-source platform for easily building best-of-class, fast, web and mobile apps. If you've never heard about Meteor, check out the original s…

From https://github.com/meteor/meteor/pull/516#issuecomment-12919... : "If you think about it, if we tried to build all of the above on top of npm, it would be npm in name only. Ev…

Blaze will support server-side rendering.

Hi, I work on Blaze. HTMLBars is an excellent project and indeed does share many design principles with Blaze. They also differ in a few ways. For example, HTMLBars plans to never …

Hi, I work on Blaze. React and Blaze both compile templates or components into an intermediate representation for their HTML structure (React's JSDOM; Blaze's HTMLJS). A lot of the…
