« it's telling that you perceive any criticism of AI code reviewer burnout as "sticking your fingers in your ears" » Go back and re-read the quote from your comment - which I respo…

I don’t buy it - if you’re an engineering leader and this is happening it’s your responsibility to get out there and fix the problem through education, process improvements, improv…

Ever work on a AAA game?

From left to right: Saturn, Mars and Mercury.

I’d agree, though maybe there’s a more charitable reading of the OP - “uninformed” is one of those accusations that it’s rarely very polite or fair to level against an individual b…

And this has been comparing like for like with CC - say Opus 4.6 on the same reasoning effort? Hasn’t been my experience particularly but fair enough. I do tend to use them in diff…

Have you used the gh copilot cli? What would stand out most to you as gaps right now?

Fame doesn’t enter it - the point is Karpathy has about as strong a claim as anyone to having “actually used LLMs for non trivial tasks”.

Do you realise who you’re replying to?

If you could share I’d be really interested in hearing a concrete example of the two behaving differently. I work in Microsoft (not on copilot - though I’m an heavy user, and use C…

As a matter of interest are you using the copilot cli?

Nearly 6 months in South America - then we ran out of money and headed home!

Memories! Back in 2012 after 8 months across Asia (through Turkey, Iran, India, Nepal, China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos and Hong King) we took a flight to Buenos Aires (wel…

If this is like the flow it uses for a codex / ChatGPT subscription it doesn’t even register a handler - the redirect opens as a 404 in your browser and there are instructions in c…

How much are you taking?

> I do wonder if there is going to be much of a difference between using Claude Code vs. Copilot CLI when using the same models. I’m also at MS, not (yet?) using Claude Code at wor…

Interesting - these head to head comparisons you’re doing with the same model - what harnesses are you comparing, say Claude code / codex versus copilot cli? > I'm not sure if its …

Sure I love Claude Code too - I use it plenty outside of work. But funnily enough I’ve been asking myself about whether to get my org on board with internal Claude Code trials and …

Really? I’d be interested to hear more. Disclaimer: I work in Microsoft (albeit in a quite disconnected part of it, nothing to do with GitHub or Copilot).

I’d suggest doing some research on software quality. Two years back I was all for buying one (I was considering an EX40), but I got myself into some Facebook groups for owners and …

Agreed that it can work well, but it can also irritating - I find myself using private conversations to attempt to isolate them, a straightforward per-chat toggle for memory use wo…

It’s likely very out of date (Iran has a young, culturally dynamic population) but I really enjoyed https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mantle-Prophet-Religion-Politics-Ir... - I read it befo…

I’m not really suggesting it’s the right approach for CAD but prompting UI changes using sketches or mockup images works great.
