    Siri was under jobs. He saw AI before everyone else

    CC got my dev env set up and running in 20 min. It had to fix my local node setup and a ton of other dependencies. A junior dev cannot do that in 20 days (unless they just asked CC…

    That's not even remotely close to true anymore. Agents are far better than any intern or junior developer.

    Agents can write good code. If you don't like the way that they write code, tell them to write it differently. Do that until you think the code is good.

    This is goddamn terrible advice. You’re rolling a dice to see if the great work ends up making it. Have we not learned the lesson of bell labs? 90% of the time the great work doesn…

    You can prompt the model to dump all of the memory into a text file and import that. In the onboarding flow, I can ask you, "Do you use another LLM?" If so, give it this prompt and…

    Presumably, the percentage of taxation is a function of the price of the item? You can have a different curve or base rate for different harmonization codes.

    When I was in my early 20s I used to think I was very clever for pointing out apparent hypocrisies. Now I realize how easily that devolves into “you are imperfect therefore you may…

    You seem to discount that the yappers are good and convincing writers as well

    That’s beside the point. It wouldn’t help shaq or any of those big men hit free throws. They have no problems with mechanics.

    I hate this analogy. NBA players can all hit 90% of their free throws shooting overhand too. Just some of them are much worse at handling the pressure and pace change of the situat…

    there's this things that happens where blog boys love to say Big Important Stuff (that isn't true) and in the 1% chance that it becomes true they point back on it and say "I am a g…

    This doesn’t sound very much like like OST beyond the general concept of caring about problems to me

    I don’t understand how you can make this statement in the midst of chatGPT being the fastest growing consumer app in history.

    Make lots of predictions and write down your thought process (seriously write them down!) once the result is in, analyze whether you were right. Were you right for the right reason…

    Sometimes it’s fun. Especially if you have nothing better to do. When I was 25 I worked crazy hours (12h a day easy) because I loved what I was doing, I was learning at a super hig…

    Anyone who talks about 996 as a flex clearly has too much time on their hands. Why aren’t you busy working?
