Very interesting outcome. Shows how far it’s possible to get without being idiomatic. You say the docs contain guidance on structuring, high-level constructs, and how to make thing…

Also in UK and AU English (and likely others) it’s the word for trashcan. Pray your office is free of folks who think bin puns are funny & original.

Sounds great! My hope is 2030 sees more organizations that are each smaller. It implies more services provided by the economy thanks to greater specialization. For example today, S…

Small suggestion - you can edit U.S. to US and gain 2 characters.

Actually, location tracking was added on purpose.. It is capitalism that has been hacked.

What I’ve observed is it becomes part of the job of the office admin person. So not zero headcount maybe 0.1 or 0.2 but that’s pretty good if the SaaS bill is another 0.2 headcount…

For everyone who thinks H-1B and its ilk make it possible to hire foreign workers at below what citizens are paid - have a look on your favorite search engine for: “Prevailing wage…

You’re only thinking in the first order. In reality no-win scenarios are avoided by having so many cameras and such an overwhelming amount of data that Waymo would win in court ins…

Claude and pasting code back and forth for simple things. But I’d like to try Claude with a few MCP servers so it can directly modify a repo. But lately Cursor. It’s just so effort…

Seeing something once doesn’t make it a real phenomenon. Besides, if that is common, Waymo will have data on it and if it’s common enough, they’ll fix it. I’ve sat in Waymos on 2 o…

My non physical desk job leaves me with a fresh body after my very much non 12 hour workday. Because I have the physical energy to, I take that body to the ocean for a swim, to the…

One hundred per cent this. LLM pair programming is unbelievably fun, satisfying, and productive. Why type out the code when you can instead watch it being typed while thinking of a…

Maybe RIF-balancing is a better term. Fascinating that 2-3 probes per request is a sweet spot, intuitively it seems like a lot of overhead.

Whenever a “good enough” prototype can be created just from a prompt, it becomes possible to scrap it every time it’s not quite right and regenerate, instead of editing the code. W…

Thankyou @gd3kr this is a really handy tool! Will use it next time I need 3D models. Just made a porcelain elephant to test it, it came out so cute!

In terms of the discussion detailed in the article let’s wait and see. It has to be a vastly superior alternative to make adding it worthwhile. On the more fun side, when I read th…

I don’t think it’s fair to look at artefacts of a past era and compare them to today. The only things preserved are the ones deemed worthy of preservation. That leads to a skewed p…
