Taste is something you use to build the guardrails of AI over time and many paper cuts endured. Once you have a big enough set of these (call them rules) recorded, they become your…

Shameless plug for my project, which is a bit different. I had the problem of crashing terminals due to OOM kills and wanted to switch to a more lightweight terminal. Also I had to…

If these proofs were output by the AI in a format readable by a proof verification system, the verification step of publishing vanishes. Then it's only valuable to check if the sta…

Fair take if the user is the same person as the implementer. If I sell software to my customers that reduces their operational complexity by me investing some code, then I don't co…

Can be that I remembered it incorrectly, as it was in 2008, but here it is: https://se-radio.net/2008/03/episode-88-the-singularity-rese...

There is a difference between easy to set up and not having to set up anything. It's an improvement in operational UX.

It only changes behaviour if the risk of having to pay outweighs the benefit. And Google won't tell what they earned through that I guess.

I listened to an interview with one of the researchers. They had a component to verify "this binary will never allocate mem outside it's allowed area" and by statically verifying t…

Sounds a bit like Microsoft's Singularity project, though I don't know if they even used a proof system to ensure a program couldn't do bad stuff(TM). After verification they just …

> [int overflows, etc.] No runtime cost when Z3 can prove it. Otherwise, the compiler emits a safe runtime check as fallback. Super interesting approach. I see this eventually be i…

How I see this: Refactoring code to reduce the number of lines is _compression_, akin to RLE coding. Refactoring the code to lift conceptually coherent parts is _abstraction_. Less…

Over the last year or so I arrived at a (sort of) MQTT semantic broker that facilitates an actor architecture. It supports federation (including transitive, so proxies "just work"(…

I tried coding "ownership strictly" in Rust myself for a while and I've given up for the most part. In a lot of cases I painted myself into corners that I couldn't get out from wit…

So what does that mean? Claude within ACP within my editor is billed differently than Claude via CLI?

You have to make performance part of the spec. It will then create benchmarks and plan differently. If you omit this, you get what you get.

Discovery of the best solution in a problem space is not generative but only verificative. Meaning: the LLM can see if a solution is better than another, but it can't generate the …

For the love of god, don't do blank textiles anymore. In the end you have a software that has 20 (or more) individual files for each programs section, which works fine until you wa…
