I enjoy molding hyper specific software across my whole eco system of tech through prose with LLMs. Iterating over time to hone the right solutions based on very abstract reactions…

Maybe if hypothetically all stakeholders express all of their concerns and desires clearly in channels AI can pick up constantly.

Got it. Thanks

Genuine question, is the reasoning chain different from clicking the status bar under a reply and watching it "think"? Or selecting the "Thinking" transcript view in Claude Code? (…

I've started doing this in my home. All lights are smart LEDs. At 8pm, they shift warm, 80%. From 9pm-10pm, they go from 80% to 0%. At 7am, they start going from 0% to 100% cool (I…

The bane of my engineering career is working under engineers like this. It's like we forget we are doing a very analog thing (collaboration and building) under the guise of somethi…

As someone with a few unused Teenage Engineering things. The real answer is probably rich tech people who love having things that make people say "I'm not sure who the target audie…

From my experience, Speech-to-text falls way short of Wispr flow and I would assume the ones that are said to be better than that. It lacks context awareness and formatting

From my experience, it has not been sycophantic in the sense that it pushes back and questions my own reasoning in healthy ways. There were moments where I felt I was brushing up a…

I think they have a better agent personality which pushes back and isn't sycophantic. It has been awhile since I've used the others but that's where it locked me in and I've stuck …

I _believe_ the term "AI Psychosis" is a "thought-terminating cliché" that readily puts you in a position to disarm any criticism to your point of view, which, if you're aware of i…

My only issue with this was the restriction of "Do not look at any data outside of our working folder" is preventing the tool from doing what it does best. I would have given it ac…

That's what I would like to call job security. When you know how to read what is wrong, you can easily catch the mistakes and correct it. AI gets you there faster by doing a lot of…

It is fun when debugging slow code and you see a for loop in a for loop. Feels rewarding to sort that out.

I like this. Really paints a picture of what we are progressing towards. The tools we needed to build the tools we need to build. And the fact that it all boils down to getting the…

Boiling down AI to faster emails and listing out those horrible things and trying to side step it as not equivocating are both really disingenuous arguments. AI can and has already…

OK but the ones here are of a certain bias to the discussion. It isn't downvote based on merit, it's downvote based on disagreement with where it falls pros/con to the topic. A dis…

no, take a look around. comments are downvoted for not agreeing with the topic, not for lack a validity. You, yourself, are ganging up on commenter and painting people with broad s…

At work, with friends, even on dates, oddly enough. But this is a polarizing topic and I don't think any of the discussions here are actually discussions. It's more venting and dow…

I'm starting to realize this comment section is an echo chamber and dissenting opinions aren't allowed.

why are you being so condescending?

I don't know, I see plenty of organic interest growing out there. Even from people who are against it when they see how it can benefit them. It's just a tool that increases product…

I mean, the author is mad something is popular and calls it psychosis. Which, all things being equal, is balanced out by nay sayers time and time again. Is not posting a lengthy ra…

I promise you top performers aren't always thinking about work. There is proof in going detached from work problems and doing other things can help produce novel solutions. Same pr…
