> Creativity is connecting ideas from different domains and see if something from one field applies to another. That's true. The question is whether the produced pattern has any va…

Shipping is just a milestone. We all know that "AI" can produce code much faster than any human. Productivity should be measured over time and take into account the cost of mainten…

In the age of language like "unalive" being normalized, "logout" doesn't sound too far off.

> never ask a model for confirmation or encouragement; but you can absolutely ask it to critique something, and that's often of value. What's the difference? The end result is equa…

And yet you have certainly used and enjoyed software published by others free of charge, and your employer, company or favorite service has relied on it. Your career may even be en…

> There is currently no way to prevent this apart from not giving the LLM full control. It will not delete what it can not delete. But deleting something is just one action you mig…

This is missing the point. The issue isn't with the amount of guardrails in place to perform an action. Yes, it is obvious that there should be some in place before doing any criti…

> The major hurdle right now is actually pivoting LLMs from just generating code: integrating those tasks into workflows. Funny, I thought that the major hurdle is improving accura…

I'm tired, boss. This industry has become a parody of itself, and people are celebrating.

> I consider that to also be a wrongly held position, because you'd need proof either way. Proof that something doesn't exist? Ever heard of Russel's teapot? The burden of proof is…

> your extreme atheists aren't much different from your extreme believers; they both have strong beliefs about things they can't prove, and for some reason want to go off on them. …

From what I understood, any color and material involved in high precision manufacturing requires careful design and thorough testing. They likely prioritize the brown color and mat…

Interesting. I'm glad companies like Noctua exist that put so much thought and care into their products. I don't even mind being advertisted to when that's the case.

There's no such thing, but all content publishing web sites should at the very least provide tools for users to self-moderate, which this forum heavily relies on anyway. Now that t…

I'm exhausted by these shiny vibe coded projects that overpromise and underdeliver. Knowledge comes from doing the hard work, not from being spoon fed information. All these fancy …

> likely straight up violates Claude's Constitution A company that goes against their self-proclaimed values... What a shocker.

> Don't ask this thing questions to which you do not know the answer. You will pollute your brain. So like any LLM?

The idea that a tool intended to replace all human cognitive work is the next level of abstraction is so fundamentally flawed, that I'm not sure it's made in good faith anymore. Th…

> So this is proof of the models actually getting stronger (previous generations of LLMs were unable to solve this one). No, it's not. While I don't dispute that new models may per…

This resonates a lot with me. Long breaks help. Take your mind off of things that bothered you. Do things you enjoy. Which may include tech work, but on your own terms. I wouldn't …

As disturbing as the film "Midsommar" was, I found the concept of a human life being divided into 4 seasons of 18 years each pretty compelling. Not necessarily that life should end…

For crying out loud, why are we discussing and paying attention to articles and claims about a product that doesn't even exist yet ?! If this isn't a sign of a bubble, where market…

> A password manager does not need a CLI tool. That's a wild statement. The CLI is just another UI. The problem in this case is JS and the NPM ecosystem. Go would be an improvement…
