No owners, no responsability, no incentive to fix it. Ticket grabbers and checklist markers.

I really want an AI tutor (ai learning harness) that I can give it a topic, it can synthesize information from sources, gauge my level, create lessons that I can read, give me exer…

I will never believe the premise of 100x boost from AI, why are we still pushing this narative? Yes, AI is amazing in small, constrained, focused pieces of code but the code is now…

Exactly, and even when humans make bad decisions there is some friction, I feel that llm's don't have/notice that friction, they just bulldoze without caring about anything else.

I'm not sure about "useless" but from my experience agentic coding leads to death by a thousand cuts for all projects I've seen so far. Small decisions missed in a codebase that le…

I had the same experience after almost 4+ days going without sleep. A friend came to check up on me after I fell asleep, I woke up and started telling him a whole story that made n…

You assume that exploitation and material improvement can not coexist. You can be exploited just as well, by that I mean you're not getting a fair share for what you contribute to …

That's amazing, over time I got a few memory related crashes w/ bun but have deep respect for the performance work put in. Hopefully Rust's compiler will help even more. Off: I'm w…

I feel this is the wrong way to go about things and I agree that it rude. Why not start by engaging with the warp project and see if some of this work could be upstreamed and if yo…

Congratz to the team. I really like zed and started using it quite early, loved the text threads and was using them a lot as I don't think llms fit in a box of only agents, they we…

I estimated that even with heavy usage it would cost your around 30-70$ depending on caching at around 40M tokens. That would give you around double the usage compared to gpt-5.5 o…

So the R line (R2) is discontinued or folder back into v4 right?

Claude seems so frustrating lately to the point where I avoid and completely ignore it. I can't identify a single cause but I believe it's mostly the self-righteousness and leaders…

Are there any plans to support other frontend frameworks? If I wanted to use it today in something like svelte how should I go about it?

I've forked it locally, to be honest I haven't merged upstream in a while as I haven't seen any commits that I found relevant and would improve my usage, they seem to work on the w…

The only thing I'm wondering is if they have eval frameworks (for lack of a better word). Their prompts don't seem to have changed for a while and I find greater success after test…

I think it should matter. When you ask the AI something you are in a frame of mind, you have a specific context, the question also holds value and context that might completely cha…

I don't disagree with the concept of AI being another abstraction layer (maybe) but I feel that's an insult to a CNC machine which is a very precise and accurate tool.

I really don't understand this. My line of thinking is that if someone is technical enough to root his phone he understands the risks. Why would they force banking apps to detect a…

I also meant more advanced optimizations beyond what svelte does, like: inlining, loop unrolling, partial evaluation that would trickle down to the frameworks as well. I am aware t…

I’d actually love to see something that goes in the opposite direction, highly optimized and compiled, where the result is as small, fast, and efficient as possible. I get that a l…
