    I don't disagree, but AIs 'willingness' to do the most painful chores mitigates a lot, I think

    Well, joke's on me: I use that extension too. And I never close my browser.

    While I don't disagree, memory certainly was more of a restrictions on us humans than it is on llms. Therefore, the answer may not be as obvious as it seems. We build abstractions …

    All over Germany, and it's been around much much longer than the fear of having something slipped in your drink.

    Which, to be fair, overall probably still saved quite some time. The compile times alone would've meant they wasted so much more time by repeated earlier checks. Whether a looming …

    Interestingly enough, precise search is on the way out.

    'liquid metal' sounds cool. It's probably a metallic glass. I super dislike that it seemingly will be synonymous with the brand name by Apple even though that stuff has been around…

    Well, there is a financial 'sink' - stockpiles and ammunition or other non-reusable military gear are basically the definition of money 'destroyed'. Their political value is almost…

    Sorry but isn't the bottleneck then simply to do even relevant things? Like how much of a qualified backlog do you have that your pipeline does not run dry?

    So let's put things we're interested in in the benchmarks. I'm not against pelicans!

    Good point. So much functionality gets commoditized, we have to move goalposts more or less constantly.

    While this is funny, the actual race already started in how companies can nudge LLM results towards their products. We can't be saved from enshittification, I fear.

    More specifically regarding spec-driven development: There's a good reason that most successful examples of those tools like openspec are to-do apps etc. As soon as the project gro…

    Everybody feels like this, and I think nobody stays ahead of the curve for a prolonged time. There's just too many wrinkles. But also, you don't have to upgrade every iteration. I …

    That is a wobbly assertion. You certainly would need to run the same compiler, forgo any recent optimisations, architecture updates and the likes if your code has numerical sensiti…

    From smaller to larger nitpick, there's basically something wrong with all of the first 15 or so of these drawings. Thanks for agreeing :)

    Yes, even if you create a single person account, you create an 'organization' to be billed. That's the whole confusion here. Y'all seemingly don't have an account at anthropic?

    Craftsmen will have a resurgence, that's probably a 'leveling up' in terms of resilience against AI takeover. There's just no way of automating quite a few of the physically effect…

    Love it when it circles around a minor issue that I clearly described as temporary hack instead of recognizing the tremendously large gaping hole in my implementation right next to…

    I was somewhat confused and irritated by the lack of a clear frontrunner crate for XML support in rust. I get that xml isn't sexy, but still.

    For me, the shear length of uuids is annoying in payloads of tokens etc. I wish there was a common way to abbreviate those, similar to the git way.
