AI agents will happily create 1000+ line source files and add a 20th parameter to a function call, even if there's a rule file telling them not to. So I built Scopewalker: a local …

You can just skip the clearly marked ad bit and read the rest of it. Jason Pargin makes a lot of good content on different channels, and throws in a book plug here and there. Doesn…

Me. I like the idea behind the product very much. I feel like my AI-saturated brain needs something like this very much at the moment.

I'm purely guessing, but they may be following the "early adopters pay premium price" model. Which means that there'd be a price drop in the fall, probably accompanied by a new mod…

Probably limits the number of intermediate tokens one way or the other. Almost certainly the impact on the result is close to zero.

Well, the fun part is that the algorithms themselves are deterministic. They are just so afraid of model distillation that they force some randomness on top (and now hide thinking)…

Voting for right-wing politicians repeatedly. You know, tax cuts for the wealthy, education cuts in fear of national debt, and all that jazz.

Transforming Normalcy into Epic Success! It took a seemingly ordinary sentence and turned it into a thrilling adventure of epic proportions! The result was nothing short of mind-bl…

I think it's already happening. I've been using Claude a lot since 3.5. For a while, I barely bothered to check what it was doing because the code it generated tended to be fairly …

I use AI a lot these days, and the funny thing is that it feels much faster, but looking back, new features seem to take roughly the same amount of time, and the number of bugs app…

I wouldn't be surprised if the first-quarter drop was even larger. Constant reports of poor quality haven't gone anywhere, and traditional car manufacturers are catching up and tak…

This is clearly about censorship, as anyone living outside of the United States can see. It's actually pretty obvious that they're banning the one platform where US oligarchs have …

I didn't bother reading beyond the second paragraph. I've never seen a corporation use anything other than their own private VPN. In fact, I've never seen a company even allow a co…

Sam's post reads like it was written by an AI. And that makes it kind of creepy, because that's a lot of sugarcoating when it comes to AI being useful one day.

That's not bad at all!

PHP and a plain-text protocol aren't what I associate with high-performance, but I guess it's relative.

100 %. Firewalls basically do nothing. If you are running vulnerable software, it won't help. If not, it's not helping, either. It basically only helps in the rare case that you ha…

Judging by his recent podcast appearances, he is probably still fine. But it's also clear that he won't be for long, and it would have almost felt cruel had he been serving as pres…

You're constantly missing the point. Artistic merit has nothing to do with your feelings about a particular work or how it was made. That is your personal preference or opinion, wh…

The lost artwork was discovered almost exactly ten years ago, in 2014. Are there any new developments on this front? If the article contained anything new, I missed it.

FOMO, probably. Just like any other tech bubble, really.

I thought I said it. Its main purpose is to eliminate guesswork.

Yes, it's misunderstood. A lot of us were doing some form of agile before someone came up with the word agile. I'll give you an example: Imagine the process of creating a retro vid…

Which is funny because agile allows for almost anything. Even the Scrum Guide says that the process must be adjusted to the needs of the project. It's not even an option. Yet scrum…

> At least within my organisation, we do not design anything up front. We’re agile Agile doesn't mean forgo design completely. > We don’t think about proper api modelling. We’re ag…
