Tiny icons existed in desktop interfaces long before AI. Personally, I think they make it easier to read.

It'd be interesting to compare this to human teams, given the same challenges.

Something I've been thinking about a lot is that this new technology's primary UI is natural language. Human's are REALLY primed for natural language. If it sounds good it must be …

You... don't know what Kubernetes is... pretty impressive, honestly. Its 2026 and its the de facto method of deploying software basically everywhere. You gotta really work for it t…

Its refreshing to see a README.md that isn't AI slop, even if it is quick and dirty scratch notes that don't quite give you as much information as you'd like.

Just buy a Realm subscription from Mojang. I ran a private server for my kids for a while and it was a huge headache. Bedrock is purposely made to not make it easy to DIY. It was d…

Not to diminish the comment, but most things are not as complex as they sound when phrased in everyday language or sound much more complex than they are when phrased in technical l…

In another decade I expect the processes and procedures will catch up. We're at that awkward time where there is still an expectation to fill out JIRA tickets, but it is possible t…

And yet nearly all cabinets are not made by hand...

The problem is that the second you suspect something is written by AI, its a pretty good signal that 50-80% of the text is empty of meaning. Maybe that will change, but LLMs are te…

Pretty small if you consider the value they provide, honestly. And they'll ride the transition to green energy for "free".

I don't think it's a given that this can't be partly or mostly policed by parents if they were provided good tools to do so. As it is all of the parental controls on all devices, a…

You'd be surprised how little those safeguards work.

Because it's pretty likely some of these have negative long term effects. And some of those long-term effects are probably pretty serious. Many people taking these kind of drugs ar…

Love swipe typing. Nice to see more keyboards in the space.

I think people will come around to accepting llm written code eventually, but it's hard having your entire career, and identity, upended overnight. Many people, myself included, ha…

That's not a distinction that people really benefit from. Approximately nobody can read other people's code for intent or quality I can't disagree more.

at least not Google Is one giant mega-corp better than any other? You're going to have a hard time convincing me the answer is yes.

The choice is between code you can validate and code you can't, not code that has malware and code that doesn't.

Now teenagers have even more ways to do lewd things!
