My first impressions and thoughts on the presentation speak to the need for human mathematicians to accept, absorb, and understand new AI-generated proofs—and to the fact that it t…

Josh Collinsworth paints an accurate picture here, and he’s not wrong. People will be hurt by the displacement and disruption that new technology brings, not just AI. It has been h…

I was going to mention Yegge's recent blog posts mirroring this phenomena. There's also this article on hbr.org https://hbr.org/2026/02/ai-doesnt-reduce-work-it-intensifies... This…

It's a tough game for Perplexity as long as they use Google's search, and with Google now providing "AI Summaries," and with the whole ad ecosystem (invented by Google) designed to…

How about looking at an ast-based method for making changes across code base? https://www.reddit.com/r/Python/comments/17tvm06/astgrep_and...

Bullshit.

Reading these comments after falling asleep to SNL sketch re-runs. They all sound oddly sarcastic and ironic.

Good article. I, too, am fascinated by calculators and how they work, especially the HP scientific RPN calculators. So much so, that I ended up developing this: https://play.google…

Reading down further I see this is a follow-up to "40 Algorithms Every Programmer Should Know". So, is this new book the same 40 algorithms from the prior book with 10 added? If so…

The android app wants full access to the file system? With the "trust us, we'll only really access the folder you tell us to..."? Am I reading that right?

It's like Game of Thrones - without the intelligent intrigue.

Wow. I see almost nothing controversial in the McKinsey article. In a nutshell it addresses hard metrics (DORA) gathered via the repo tooling (commits, MRs, etc) which is enhanced …

Pair programming can be a productive, even fun, activity in limited situations. Now that we have the option of our pairing partner being human or AI, it sort of highlights a lot of…

I have had a nearly identical experience. Thanks for sharing.

We've reached the point just past the elbow on the Moore's Law graph where things are skyrocketing. Any projections we humans make about the future advancement of AI are hopelessly…

Yep. It was fun while it lasted, but I expect none of the manufacturers will support hacking or mods on these devices in the future because there's too few people doing that compar…

So anyone who has already unlocked their Pixel 2 is good to go right? Getting the latest Pixel unlocked requires an internet connection, but once done it's done. So the complaint i…

ELI5 - everything about a phone only works when the carrier allows it to connect to the network. So, the way this is done is to, well, connect to the network and allow the phone to…

Like others responding here, I was lucky to see the LCM just before the pandemic killed it. Truly sad to see it go.

Product description sounds like Luke Skywalker's description of Princess Leia's rescue reward to Han Solo. "More then you can imagine." To which Han replies, "I can imagine quite a…

Unfortunately just diagnosed type 2. Can't find Ozempic anywhere due to this crazy drug shortage and off label prescribing.

Main reason would be they have a lot of legacy code written for Oracle. For new projects, the choices are wide open.

The fact that we exist and live is baseline extraordinary. What we do after that is so-called gravy. But seriously. Measuring ourselves against the Einsteins is a path leading nowh…

Interesting that summon and auto park will "not be available and will be restored once vision gets parity with the sensors..." Wow. Wondering when that will happen, as I still get …

I can only go by my experience in that a passion for making computers do things was the seed. From there it drove a desire to learn more. I don't think most people can sustain the …
