Valve does allow listing on other stores at other prices. They even allow you to sell Steam keys for your game on other stores for lower prices - and they earn $0 for that while st…

For me, Firefox on desktop (Windows) and mobile (Android) both give the SSL warning. Although mine appears a bit different than the parent comment: An error occurred during a conne…

Do you have an example of someone doing that? I suppose the argument would be we wouldn't know - but personally I don't buy it. It's possible to not be "famous" as a billionaire, b…

Even if only 5% of his NW is in cash, that'd be $50billion dollars in actual liquid cash. Even if it's 1% or less, he almost certainly has over $1bn in cash or practically liquid c…

Didn't AOC's comment specifically say a billion? Why would it imply someone increasing from $200k to $10m didn't earn it?

I usually make the llms do that part for me. Instead of asking the llm to refactor, ask it to write the codemod script that'll refactor, have it test that script, and even have it …

Has rate of progress increased? How does one measure that? Genuinely curious - would be very interesting to map out the "effectiveness" of each AI model vs how long it took to trai…

If you try to just instruct them they might get it wrong. If the surrounding software forces them to do it, it'll always work. E.g. it can check for merge conflict markers like Als…

Why Mac only? Also - one issue I've seen with other tools doing worktree stuff is they don't deal with merge conflicts automatically. IMO the agents should just automatically resol…

I'm not an expert, but as I understand it there are existing solvers for poker/holdem? Perhaps one of the players could be a traditional solver to see how the LLMs fare against tho…

AI almost always reduces the time from "I need to implement this feature" to "there is some code that implements this feature". However in my experience, the issue with AI is the p…

> which is what every other major studio would have done in its place Afaik CDPR doesn't make many games. If one flops, that might be the end of them. I don't see abandoning a game…

Would you say the same if someone played 1000 hours of a sport?

Comment #45017022
Definitely seems like it could be useful, but I'd be worried with giving AI write access to emails. Is there a good audit trail of exactly what actions it takes at each step? I'd p…

Greppable commit messages and descriptions are also important, for a similar reason. If you want to learn where a feature exists in the codebase, searching the commits for where it…

I watched the video but I wasn't fully sure what the scam was. Where it became unclear to me was where it transitioned from a chat to an app. The app mentioned in his video (MetaTr…

I just saw this on my YouTube - still hasn't been stopped. I'm sure a _lot_ of people have sent money to this crypto as it's certainly quite convincing to the non-tech audience. Wh…

It's better for the company - they can pay less and the employee gets the same equivalent amount in their pocket. E.g. if the company were going to pay $2k extra but it would be ta…

This isn't always true. Fortnite's emote wheel is a good counter-example - it wouldn't be easy to implement in any other way. You don't want to dedicate 8 separate buttons just for…

I'm ignorant but I've never understood why people actually pay the ransom. Aren't the attackers anonymous? What stops them from asking for another $Y after they get their $X, and n…
