> I don't think it's that early tbh, agentic coding has ~90% adoption in the US. Where does that 90% figure come from?

> Viral disease is not being associated with more and more long term diseases. You meant to write " now being associated with more and more long term diseases", right?

I just actually thought that many of the great artists absolutely did paint, sculpt, or draw their creations "by hand", themselves. I suppose they used tools: the brush, chisel, pe…

Is this sarcasm? I can't tell.

You know they cause a majority of the code of the core logic to execute, right? Are you sure the tests actually check that those bits of logic are doing the right thing? I've had C…

What's your prediction: Proportionally fewer, same, or more people hurt, compared to the first time?

Are you sure of that? For years now I think Amazon and Apple have an agreement where only Apple or Apple-approved third-party vendors can sell Apple products on Amazon? https://9to…

The replies to this thread cannot be serious, on a web forum populated—I thought—primarily by technologists. Surely you all remember the variations on, "If you make encryption ille…

Does https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherlock_(software)#Sherlocked... count? (Edit: Missed I wasn't the first to post this in a sibling.)

I was under the impression that, at least for models without "reasoning", asking them to be terse hampered their ability to give complete and correct answers? Not so?

Dave Plummer, a former Microsoft Windows engineer, also did a video on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qe1ltXdKMow

I think https://github.com/threeplanetssoftware/apple_cloud_notes_pa... might do the trick. This is "user friendly" as long as you are a programmer or work in digital forensics. :D…

Can you clarify, are you sympathetic of the person who thinks they wouldn't get an answer from the other team, or are you saying the person was wrong to not just ask the other team…

I have to say that I am worried that, by taking myself out of the loop for the 99%, I'm going to get worse at the 1% of things that occasionally fall into my lap because the LLM ca…

Unfortunately, Overcast's update towards the tail of last year ruined it for me and many others. It no longer functions reliably in my experience.

Thanks for your comment. I agree with a lot of what you said, in particular that trying to have it both ways (hybrid) often ends up with everyone being frustrated, in my experience…

But what if you also like the people you work with? Or, to flip that around a bit, what if you hire people who are both competent and interesting/pleasant to be around?

Congratulations on your launch! But I confess that I am really confused. This sounds exactly like Aider, but closed source and it's locked into a single LLM API? I just watched you…

For people on macOS, the free app Aiko on the App Store makes it easy to use Whisper, if you want a GUI: https://sindresorhus.com/aiko

I struggle to understand why people are so toxic with chat in video games. I don't go to the supermarket, or even the bar and hear people just casually chatting about "who hates [r…

Better also put a second camera facing the eyes to make sure the player isn't looking at e.g. a radar monitor just past the game monitor, or something in their lap. Apparently some…

I think the rise of streamers and Internet personalities has incentivized many present day cheaters. You're more likely to strike it big—become popular, get paid—if you're good at …

I haven't confirmed this, but I would expect that creating E2EE chat that doesn't follow this new law would itself be prosecutable? Now criminals can be picked up for merely using …
