I cannot disagree more strongly. In the correct setup, there is always a tangent line between all parts of the screen as you swivel your neck horizontally. I did not have that with…

I should have added that I ran my first startup in India for 8 years before moving to the states, that's why I have an insider view.

One aspect that seems to be missing is the abuse of the free credits provided for new companies by AWS, Azure, and other providers. I know of a friend's company in India who purcha…

I respect your opinion and experience, but FWIW for the readers, I had the completely opposite experience. The batch did divide into groups. Some people were learning functional pr…

Thanks for making Recurse so awesome Nick, and it was great running into you at demo day. I learned so much and made great friends at my six weeks in Brooklyn. Without Recurse Cent…

Nice, I built something similar ~5 years ago using nested git repos and scripts to accomplish a similar purpose of combined private and public repos. My shell script definitely was…

This was one of my favorite Project Euler problems, but getting to the mathematical solution admittedly took me a couple of weeks. Perhaps because I was pigeon-holing this as a pro…

Amazing and industry-changing. Is he able to update it by himself now?

I have a similar story with my washing machine repair. I went through 2 service technicians not being able to diagnose it. Gpt did it and I told the 3rd what to do and it worked.

very true! we sandbox and keep it independent of the main codebase, which makes it easier to build and share new features.

Nice article. That's basically what we do. We also make the created code saveable and shareable so they can reuse what they've already built

Yup! That's one of the biggest things we build while shipping this for a Series B SaaS. It's invisible but one of the hardest technical challenges. We've got guardrails before any …

Yep, even our use cases are 80% read-only, and the rest where we write is very constrained and guardrailed. Giving non-technical users the freedom to create new backend objects is …

Our solution to that age old problem is to scope each new feature into its independent "app", which is sandboxed and walled off from the main source code

Thanks for the new tagline ;)

Manual qa, evals, prompting, and inhouse validation steps. AI is not 100% perfect but it's working well for most use cases.

Yup 80% of the usage is for new frontend features and that's actually quite valuable for our customers who serve traditional enterprises like manufacturers, hotels, labs. Only some…

We're live with five businesses and 2000 daily users! The technical challenges in setting the mapping, ai model, and dsl that creates reliable outputs is the engineering value we d…

Yes -- the future of SaaS looks more like a system of record, on top of which AI serve what's needed on the fly based on what the customer needs.

Exactly ;) One of our customers say "we've given their entire team superpowers" I've been dealing with technical debt for half of my career. Here's what we're doing to prevent it: …
