    People are missing the point if they think this is useless because frontier models keep changing every few months. We really, really need better secondary models that can do things…

    Of course it's Not Just Bikes. I used to be frustrated at their poorly thought-out arguments until I realized none of it matters. The videos are made for a certain demographic to j…

    No it isn't. Your local .env should NOT be shared, but should also be assumed to be leaked at any given time. Security should be done using a secrets manager through the cloud plat…

    I pay $20 for codex, use it daily for coding, and still haven't dipped below 50% for weekly usage. I wouldn't even be able to afford buying 29 gigs of ram, or a new video card with…

    I thought the chinese models were cheaper per token, but about the same or more expensive on tasks because they used more tokens for reasoning. Cutting even further, seems like a r…

    Yea, that tracks. I just looked it up and AWS made ~130bn. Given how big AI is, and how those two are pretty much the only players (in comparison aws is 1/3 market share), that see…

    I love bun - although disliked how Jarred did the conversion. Project-wise, nothing has changed. Bun was always great because of the fantastic dx - it was just really easy to use ,…

    There are astute comments about the post's tone elsewhere in this thread[0] But this killed my hopes for Zig. The drama is fun, and Andrew is maybe even admirable in his earnest, b…

    This seemed to work best. Unexpected given what I know second-hand about the valley - which is to grind leetcode and keep job hopping.

    The problem is that coding was sold as the pancea. If you were fired, "learn to code", if you're in prison, "learn to code", if you're in kindergarden, "learn to code". Even in thi…

    I hate that these discussions go nowhere because there's no common metric anymore. I have no idea what stuff like "is it always perfect?" means because it varies so much from perso…

    I just want to know how the avg. dev is using these things. I feel like it's a completely different world, and all the noise is from luddites, or spotify pushing 45000 deployments …

    Except it wasn't the basement and first floor. It was the first seven floors. Coincidentally, also the floors most of the higher-ups don't work on. Or at least that's how it's bein…

    I will die on the hill that Java was a good language, and had the potential to leapfrog us from where we are by at least a decade. But it got hobbled by the awful, awful enterprise…
