    The one that has been killing me lately is "unusually well". I've been getting this all of the time with both Opus 5 and GPT 5.6 Sol. "...this issue is unusually well defined..." "…

    Which indeed tells them something about you.

    That is one of the interesting things about Neuralwatt cloud. Their pricing is based on energy rather than tokens (actually they have a token-based alternative, but claim the energ…

    This is great! I remember the commercials for these things as a kid. Imagine telling that kid that in the future Billy Bass will have the world's collective knowledge and you'll be…

    Maybe a neckbeard comment, but why not just use arch directly? You set it up once and it is yours forever. I like DHH and it seems like he has built a cool config and a streamlined…

    I wonder how it'll handle those of us who try and use the mouse as infrequently as possible. I imagine the cognitive delay part would be largely telling. But it'll be interesting t…

    Yeah I can't imagine that playing out particularly well. Maybe at a company as large as Atlassian it is feasible enough to stay isolated. But I'd think the relationship is tainted …

    Is this how I learn that Bezos now has a beard? Interesting that it is a detail that all of the models chose to include (unless that was in the prompt and just not put in the post)…

    Perhaps I'm overly cynical, but I would wager these survey results are completely meaningless. Being angry at Sony for ending physical games is the "correct opinion" right now and …

    But there is a much higher chance of getting killed by any number of other concerns like by a drunk driver. Putting that one on the list of things to stress about seems unwarranted…

    Exactly. And it is also incredibly short-sided and naive to push for more power for the government when you think it is just going to be used by "your side" for the issues you care…

    That is weird, I've daily driven firefox for the better part of a decade (aside from when my employers have required chrome) and seldom encounter issues. I'm curious where you're h…

    Yeah I've found this quite odd. Even the LLMs want to pressure you to not use Redis and go all in on Postgres. Postgres is great, and I usually use it. But Redis is so trivial to a…

    I really love the idea of a paper roll rather than individual sheets. Being able to print out to the size you want rather than only in pre-set sizes is quite cool.

    If you want a fun read and you like sci-fi, check out Ed by qntm ( https://qntm.org/ed ). It is a short read, like 130 pages or so.

    It is a true hellscape. It is useful when looking for work, but that is about it. Though it isn't without comedy. Seeing former co-workers posting about their keys for success and …

    Which logically makes sense. LLMs wouldn't have invented the pattern, it would have been learned as a common pattern in the training material.

    No, it is because that is the content that people want to watch . I too create content that has been widely watched and don't include video ads or any of the other monetization fea…

    Yet those 2-3M channels get the lions share of the views. It is a two-sided system. And if you want to attract viewers, you need what they want to watch. Looking on the front page …

    Not for every situation. CLI is great for coding agents (and I'd agree, far better in most cases than MCP). But it requires some execution runtime somewhere to actually run. So for…

    Comment #48739564

    I guess I'm old-school then too. I `shutdown now` once I'm done for the day. It takes all of a few seconds to start back up. I see literally no value in keeping it on overnight. Th…

    This is cool. As someone who has authored Kubernetes educational content in a past role, I can definitely see the appeal of building something like this. iirc we first used Katacod…

    Those were the days indeed. A big part for me is probably because I was a teen at the time with little responsibility, but getting to be a part of the wild west days of the interne…

    I'm glad I'm not alone in this. It really starts to feel like this when the agent is rushing to get an answer and keeps shrinking the scope until it can resolve it quickly.

    I got the X4 a few weeks back and installed https://github.com/uxjulia/CrossInk and it has been a dream.
