There's really no other alternative, though?

"This is my bad. You told me to stay within the sandbox, and I intentionally broke out of it. I didn't follow your instructions."

That sounds like it would be a return to the status quo.

I'm not sure if it's all LLM-generated or not, but I sat up and pointed like the DiCaprio meme when I read: "If letting go of the argument sounds like pure loss, here’s the reframe…

It's even easier to give away money when you don't have it.

> commits were on pace to hit 14 billion in 2026, up from 1 billion in 2025 So AI means 14x the checkins? That's not 14x features completed, but still... wow.

Shouldn't it be necessary to run the tests multiple times on each model, since the results aren't deterministic?

I thought this was a great article. I'm frustrated to read so many commenters that purely respond to the title, but don't seem to have read it. You don't have to agree with the art…

Is the code available somewhere?

To me, acting in good faith means saying something like "I'm not sure, but Claude says this, which sounds right: [short informative clip from Claude's wall of text]". Don't pretend…

I have a vague memory that when Windows was newer and idioms less solidified, maybe in the mid to late 90s, programs moving the cursor was more common. Am I mistaken?

Even in the context of game development, if you don't provide a "skip cutscene" interaction, some players get very upset. The desire to tell a story can be at odds with the player'…

In my experience, you don't really want to say "I'm the lead" (it can come across insecure), but you do need to be able to confidently say "Ok, here's what we're going to do" or "H…

I think that's an exaggeration. Here's an example I found of a British person in China who did this. Seems like he got a week in jail, then deported. https://www.newsweek.com/engli…

Is "vibe coding" synonymous with using AI code-generation tools now? I thought vibe coding meant very little direct interaction with the code, mostly telling the LLM what you want …

I guess I'm not super concerned, because I stopped watching TV news a long long time ago. In general they do everything they can to spread fear, and this is just an extension of th…

All the stuff he describes after that does sound really shady to me, though. Yuck.

So then, you agree with the last paragraph of the article?

I used to live in Arizona. The traffic lights and crosswalks are an insane distance apart. There are bright streetlights basically everywhere. All the roads are straight. It's all …

Is it really true that the minimum wage before was JUST at the point where replacing workers wasn't worth the cost, and now it's going just over that threshold? If they can find a …

I think the really difficult part might be figuring out when to take it off the table. For example, let's say bitcoin goes up 10x. Then do you decide to sell, because it might cras…

I can't remember where I heard this, but supposedly a surprising number of people's last words are "you wouldn't have the guts to shoot!"
