    Okay, doubt. What level of complexity you believe this project has? Including the changes that required changing burn-cubecl. https://github.com/mii-nipah/voxcpm-rs --- Just to be …

    "rewrite 50% of what it generates" See, I'll not claim they write good code. But have you considered maybe your standards are a little bit too high for the tool? I made like 15 too…

    Show HN: Universal Type Lens, it deals with the annoying inlay hints

    I was inspired by the ionide extension for F#, the way inlay hints work with it is very cool and much less irritating. So I thought to myself: "can this be done by simply taking th…

    The second test scores 60%, the first was way higher. And I specifically said ""unless you are saying "I could not grasp it immediately but later I was able to after understanding …

    Your view is incomplete. It did lowered lifespans, but also increased them MUCH MORE than before. It was not "oh, it got worse, now it is recovering". It was "it got worse, now it …

    If you should never say never, you are already contradicting yourself.

    You don't validate an hypothesis without testing counterfactuals, tho.

    Did you wrote it from scratch to compare? There's an old motto devs use all the time, you know. Measure first, don't guess. How do you know it would not have took you the same time…

    700 lines of code is 2 weeks of work for a good developer? My friend, I wrote 350 lines of executable code (excluding boilerplate) in a morning (4AM to like 9AM, maybe a bit more) …

    Your estimation maybe right, but maybe also there is a point on why it is right: https://neilmadden.blog/2025/06/06/a-look-at-cloudflares-ai-... Maybe because (and I'm quoting that…

    Novelness is not a characteristic of interpolation, tho, it's about extrapolation. If you have plenty of clients and plenty of related stuff to the provider side, even if on on aut…

    No, I think I saw the graphs on someone's channel, but maybe I misinterpreted the results. But to be fair, my point never depended on 100% of the participants being right 100% of t…

    You read at the same speed line-by-line your code when you are in your git client? You are doing something wrong. I go line-by-line through my code like 7x faster than I would do i…

    Now you are just being silly with your comparisons. There is no analogy between those things: * the difference between handwritting a book and typing is the extreme pain you would …

    Amazing, because I realized I procrastinate MORE when using LLM to write code which I know I could write. And not only that, I feel I'm losing the ability to do the coding myself a…

    I'm sorry, 2000 USD per month is MUCH more costly than an engineer from a third world country, it can basically pay for a senior where I live. Even 200 USD is sufficient for an int…
