I don't get what you mean? To me the biggest news is Jeff and Sanjay leaving Google... but then not really, since Google will be "an investor". I guess that's sorta their retiremen…

Yes. Be locked in. It's better to go 100% and only pay the switch costs if you have to. Developing abstractions to let you switch technologies has 2 costs: The actual development, …

Maybe LLMs can't, but another form of AI will. I hope nobody is interpreting this as "nothing will never be as good as us". I see similar thinking in stories of how humanity got he…

I’ve used Monica HQ a lot. I am building a similar tool but With AI (tm) https://meetemilia.com/ Currently struggling with actually giving it the personality you see on the website…

Back in the day "what happens when the user types a url in the address bar and press enter" used to be an interview question, and I remember nobody has ever mentioned the hardware …

Let's say you grab a can of Coke in the grocery store, shelf sticker says 49c. When you pass on the cash register, it clearly shows $5k in the cashier's monitor, and the point of s…

In the US the rich already has more public power than the poor... from lobbying to donations to "speech". I guess making it official would save them from all this work and simplify…

Your language is not even sarcasm at this point, but was really used by Google a few years ago https://www.wxii12.com/article/google-home-confuses-users-wi... - "we were just surfa…

I've done a version of "world" for Sigil, a programming language I was kinda doing but stopped, also for agents. LLM generated article here https://inerte.github.io/sigil/articles/…

I honestly interpreted and agreed with the version "this saves money".

I learned in Brazil. Here in the California I asked my son's kindergarten teacher if she would teach cursive, and she said they don't teach calligraphy and I've never seen it descr…

Reporting on percentage of AI generated lines of code is very different from total lines of code. Yes I know both of them are missing what's the value delivered, but the later assu…

I know it has the same functionality, but it also looks like the Codex app which looks like Cursor Agents! Are they sharing some VS Code primitive here?

Same for me. I applied for engineering manager. Was told it was going to be a code review. I found a bunch of things that it could be improved, detected a very slow part / quadrati…

I am getting so confused when to use what... agents, sub-agents, tasks, team mates, /goal, /loop, and now workflow. Each with different degrees of effort. Don't make me think. All …

Dead Internet Theory and all. There is no going back. I don't think an online space can be designed to be safe from this. The AI agents can fully control our computers. All solutio…

If you haven't seen They Live... that's next level.

I think martin_henk is fully aware of that and it's why of all the examples of how a government can use your data, he picked this one...

If I steal your luggage, do you expect to be paid to get it or that I return to you? Waymo should have white-gloved this and sent Larry Page himself to deliver the luggage. This is…

Yes but also we don't want people live streaming murder and suicide, so there's detection and moderation in place.
