Personally, with our company on Cursor, I can see why model makers are not the best people to go all the way down the stack. Using the right model for the situation will continue t…

This is so neat! I really think AI turbocharges this kind of personal project way more than it speeds up programming for work: > I was curious about the possibility of doing this m…

This is pretty impressive results given that this is not from one of the major AI labs. Congrats: https://blog.withmeka.com/meka-achieves-state-of-the-art-per... Out of curiosity, …

Hey figmert -- this is Peter, one of the co-founders of Wanderlog. I'm actually on a trip to Italy right now and definitely feel your pain with some performance issues, and we've b…

We've had to go through this process for the app I have, and it definitely was cumbersome and makes the process a huge pain. Fortunately, after a while Google often lets you switch…

Yeah, that's pretty much it -- usually nobody stress-tested this before they just sent it out in a rush to employee #1, who's probably a referral anyways

> If the employer is a good one, they want the contract to be fair, and if the contract is unfair it's probably by accident. This definitely sounds about right -- I'm pretty sure m…

This 100%. In travel, we see Google constantly tweaking its algorithms, and compared to Bing, Google surfaces a ton more small, well-written travel blogs [1] Not only that, Paul an…
