I’ve gone down the same logical pattern of using Go for llms even though I personally prefer Clojure.

Z.ai has glm-4.7. Its almost as good for about $8/mo.

I wonder when I will feel compelled to go back. Right now it just feels too productive for me to let AI write the code.

I love org mode and used eMacs for years. I felt like I had to switch to neovim and thus markdown for lots of reasons. Overall neovim has been a better experience for me but I do m…

I didn’t know he started a new podcast!

I’m enjoying this a lot and even got my partner playing. We did one together and now they are off working through puzzles because they liked it so much. The game design is really g…

No. I think an honest attempt at doing something "radical" economically for the working class can cross the divides we have.

Popping into nvim to check on something really quick seems immediately useful. I think I'll still want a dedicated tab or different terminal app to have my longer lived editor open…

Reagent on clojure(script) really nailed all the best parts of react without the downsides. I've seen some comments talk about how jsx felt like embedded xml and state management s…

I went to this thought too but then I remembered the 90-9-1 rule. The AI summary is for some portion of the 90. The 9 are still going to comment. What they comment on and how they …

If we are measuring the cost of libraries is a drop in the bucket relative to national debt and GDP. The immeasurable benefit they provide to communities is so worth their tiny rel…

I think the article linked is saying that libraries should be sacred _because_ they are nice to be in. They make people feel better about their life and the world based on some see…

I’ve used org mode as a daily driver personally and at work for awhile but ultimately transitioned to Roam Research in part because the mobile experience is better. I still use org…

This is amazing. If anyone likes this kind of functionality and doesn’t mind expanding beyond vanilla org mode I recommend org-roam. https://www.orgroam.com/ Roam Research, what it…

Also ChatGPT is pretty good at writing elisp.

I think there is an argument here with no right answer. Writing can have such a better signal to noise ratio but it’s harder to write well. Talking is easy but it’s also easy to fo…

> because of screens It’s connection they are looking for. Nobody wants to play in big backyard treehouse alone. At least the screens let them talk to other people or at least pret…

People who are into loud bikes and cars seem obnoxious to me. This comment especially doesn’t seem to care about performance or speed. Is the appeal really just to be loud and get …

There’s room in the world for a tool that has an error rate but also an astonishing ability to accelerate the work of a person.

> unless money is tight The software dev job market is cooling down. Making good choices on what to build experience in is more important than it has been in recent years. I think …

I was just thinking about this the other day. I think it’s the relatively recent concept of “throwing things away”. I don’t think in much of our evolutionary history we’ve had the …

I think cars are more dangerous for that exact reason. I was being sarcastic in saying that roads filled with lots of cars aren't as dangerous or noisy.

Semantics … I’m rolling my eyes so hard that the article’s main point is that affordable housing as a problem is not a “crisis” by the strict definition of the word.

Just the cost of parking lots would be significant. Parking areas in car centric commercial zones are gigantic and increase the amount of all other infrastructure like electric lin…

Busy roads aren’t as noisy or more dangerous though.
