"There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed. But always— do not forget this, Winston— always there will be the intox…

Love this idea and your creation of it. Unfortunately do think the parent's concerns are valid - at this moment on your site at least one person has set their name to something off…

Any chance you'd be interested in sharing the story?

There it is. Thanks!

Is there an xyz's law for this yet? Will add - lines of code (as long as you don't believe code is the product/output).

The point is that safety depends on context and intent being known - with unknown context or intent, dangerous situations will appear _some_ of the time, thus the system as a whole…

Great list, thanks. Seconding Exhalation, that story in particular but also the whole collection. Guess I'm checking out Egan next.

I'm legitimately curious - could you elaborate on the difference? Speaking as someone who has always preferred the commit-by-commit focus of a rebase instead of all-at-once merge c…

We had our circa-1915 house checked for asbestos before lifting it. The inspector laughed after taking a chip out of the plaster because you could clearly see horse hair protruding…

My issue is remembering that the square brackets come first, not the parentheses. I do like asciidoc's method: https://example.com for bare link, or https://example.com[pretty text…

I like this, thank you.

This is great! Not an emacs user (as yet) but this and org-mode's /italic/ _underline_ *bold* +strike+ feel that much closer to the oft-touted "source looks kinda like formatting” …

Anything that doesn't force you to remember arbitrary ordering - square brackets first? Or parentheses? It's the textual equivalent of plugging in usb upside down. An alternative w…

Same here, basically word for word.

Enjoyed the article, and the "less can be more than you think" mindset in general. To the author - on Android Chrome I seem to inevitably load the page scrolled to the bottom, foot…

I'm interested in this. Code review, most egregiously where the "author" neglected to review the LLM output themselves, seems like a clear instance. What are some other examples? S…

Exactly. The problem is instead of getting a raise because "you can do more now" your colleagues will be laid off. Why pay for 3 devs when the work can be done by 1 now? And we all…

I love it too. Appears to be accomplished with this CSS, which you can tinker with by finding the :after element at the bottom of the tag in browser devtools: body::after { content…

Appreciate the exposition, great ideas here. It's fascinating how the relationship between human and machine has become almost adversarial here!

Just curious, how do you go about making the test suite immutable? Was just reading this earlier today... https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45525085

Aren't the impacts perpetual if we're creating new contrails every single day? Taken from another comment, this seems pretty clear: > Contrail cirrus may be air traffic's largest r…

It seems like you're misunderstanding what parent meant by "prerecorded" - not a screen recording, just pre-writing of commands to be executed during the demo. Would you consider i…

This is great! Asciinema is well-made and a lot of fun, but it sadly doesn't show the recordings in motion right there in the markdown/README. Looks like vhs neatly solves that pro…

Appreciate these thoughts. Would you mind sharing what Elixir and Phoenix books you're working through?

It's beautiful, but note to OP it doesn't work great on Android Chrome for me - can only draw very very short lines.
