Not usually but I've had periods where I've only been listening to AI-generated music (my own and others) instead of using Spotify. Suno is getting really good now.

This is my `mcp.json` in VS Code (requires `uvx` and `npx` to be available): { "servers": { "context7": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@upstash/context7-mcp" ], "type": "stdi…

How do you find o3-pro for coding? I've also been taking the approach of hand building context and copying and pasting it in for complicated tasks where I want lots of reasoning, l…

I've barely tried Claude Code but looking to experiment with it as well after hearing a lot of good things about it. I've had good experiences with the GitHub Copilot agent in VS C…

Yes, I've taken multiple - anywhere from a couple months to an entire year during COVID. Travelling, trying my hand at a business, others to just take a break and work on side proj…

Location: London, United Kingdom - open to working with US timezones Remote: yes (can work hybrid or full time on-site if there is an office in London) Willing to relocate: no Tech…

Very cool, hopefully VS Code eventually builds in native support for whatever functionality is missing that is part of the reason for these forks.

The new web search icon appeared for me straightaway in the ChatGPT macOS desktop app, within an in-progress conversation, without even having to restart. Before I'd even seen this…

Great but only so long as you want to use their nameservers. I had a domain with them that I wanted to use with AWS Route 53 nameservers which I was unable to - then I had to wait …

Cloudflare is straightforward to use but watch out, they don’t let you use custom nameservers, which is very unusual for a domain registrar. As great as Cloudflare’s nameservers ar…

"[Almost]" doesn't appear in the title of the article as currently linked. I would also agree that there is no need for an "almost" anymore - voice cloning can be pretty spot on e.…

Such as a concert, open mic night, fitness class - maybe on something like VRChat or Meta Horizons Worlds. I have used VR fairly extensively (on a Quest 2) but rarely to attend the…

I have noticed this as well sometimes, though never thought it might be intentional, I'd doubt it is. You can always hint to ChatGPT which language to use for the codeblock anyway …

I'm involved in building a backend right now for which I chose to use AWS ECS with Fargate containers for deployment, over some managed Kubernetes service like AWS EKS which would …

I would mention something to that effect in the modal because it wasn't clear to me why it was asking for card details at that point for "$0.00/mo" (though I guessed the reason). M…

No, I lean in the opposite direction - I would be more inclined towards employment opportunities which have a reasonable coding challenge as part of the hiring process. In my exper…

It has not, although it has greatly changed how I program and learn. We are currently entering a period where "centaurs"[1] - humans using AI - will be the most effective agents fo…

GitHub Copilot for coding, and ChatGPT for sundry tasks, mostly summarizing and explaining written text. I pay for both of these tools now. ChatGPT seems great in particular for su…

I would second this. Having interactive examples alongside the documentation (in multiple languages nonetheless) was something that stood out to me the first time I had to read the…

Since you mention Mail/Messages, I assume you are on macOS. I had a similar issue - wanting to always open links from Slack in Chrome, but links from elsewhere in Brave. I use Choo…

I agree, it looks like JB are working on upgrading the default runtime to Java 17, but I think generally they could encourage developers to try out different runtimes anyway and re…

There is an action in IntelliJ - "Choose Boot Java Runtime for the IDE". I first downloaded the Corretto 15 JDK within IntelliJ itself as if I was going to use it as the SDK for a …

Something I've tried recently is changing from the default Java 11 JetBrains runtime to Amazon Corretto 15. Start up is blazingly fast now and overall the IDE feels faster once run…

I haven't used Github Copilot but from what I understand it generates a completion from the text already in your file. Since OpenAI Codex can "understand" natural language instruct…
