Depends on where you work... where I happen to work people sit in Jira meetings all day and in the time they talk about it my team implements it. So yes "literally everyone has acc…

That’s not what we are empirically seeing though. There is also no way of knowing that things can’t be progressing for the next 5 years. No foundational model company would be spen…

What would possibly tell you that?

Off in the sense that he shouldn’t be running the company?

It was always benchmaxxed

It does because you can now just steamroll features out the door and make everyone look bad that’s sitting around in meetings all day

You do still need to know though, different prompts have different affects on them.

It’s basically because LLMs supersede all of these. The ability to reason, research, and write code applies to everything else and will speed up the innovation cycles there signifi…

So crazy, at one point they had 3 different systems for interacting with Gemini, all with different auth. For a company that prides themselves on the smartest engineers, they reall…

Oh that built on a bunch of ideas that weren’t far off. It was a great discovery but like many it’s standing in tall shoulders

The best thing to ever happen to the software world was Oracle buying Sun and consequently Java. Java was great at its time but then had to go. Oracle gaining control over them spe…

Do they have backwards compatibility guarantees? Otherwise what are we doing here?

Except Anthropic has delivered a truly world changing product…

I feel this way about most Hashi tools, they just seem massively overrated to me. Ghostty is fine I guess, I find it to be way buggier than iterm with a fraction of the features. Z…

There was just a study showing that when presented blindly no one could tell the difference yet users were avid they could

Agree, I think there was just a blind study that showed no one could tell the difference even though the users were avid they could

I looked into this a bit but unfortunately because of starlink most of this won’t be needed
