    I'm Fox. I'm a 16 year old, and I've been working mostly working on making projects I thought were cool & would do well on the internet over the last year. You can check out my oth…

    This is cool, but I just got incredibly sidetracked by the fact that author Gavin Shapiro has a fake museum in the arctic (museumzoetrope.org). Half as a ploy it seems to raise the…

    This metaphor totally gets muddied once you consider some of the most optimized programs are run on a single thread in an event loop. Communication between threads is expensive, ep…

    Looking at their website it seems they're trying to target a slightly less tech savvy audience which are interested in checking on agents while away. Someone willing to blow cash o…

    As someone who posts blogs and projects out of my own enjoyment, no AI for code generation, handed edited blog, I still have no idea how to signal to people that I actually know wh…

    You don’t. A JS dev isn’t going to catch an uninitialized variable in C and probably doesn’t even know the damage nasal demons can cause. You either throw more LLMs at it or learn …

    Yeah not awesome, heavy irony in this paragraph. Been looking at some other providers recently with comparable prices, my infrastructure isn’t to complicated to migrate just haven’…

    Eventually I always get to a problem I can't solve by just throwing an LLM at it and have to go in and properly debug things. At that point knowing the code base helps a hell of a …

    Because the question almost always comes with an undertone of “Can this replace me?”. If it’s just code search, debugging, the answer’s no because a non-developer won’t have the sk…
