What is the latency you are seeing with 5.4 no reasoning? And where have you landed for stt and tts solutions?

The tiring part for me is the waiting and/or context switching to fill that time. When agents of this intelligence or better can get you results in seconds instead of minutes we ca…

If you are talking about the Copilot built into vs code, that's not been my recent experience at all. Very capable in agent mode since gpt 5.4 came out.

It's optional, and that's great, because its necessity or benefit is situational.

Agree with this, though I've mostly been using Gemini CLI. Some of the simplest things, like applying a small diff, take many minutes as it loses track of the current file state an…

I use markdown files in vs code. Supports folding of sections, combined with a few keyword/char patterns that I highlight different colors. Also get code highlighting in properly l…

Did you find out what service he was using?

Well, pretty much everyone is less valuable than they think! I've bootstrapped and sold two startups, first time with 5 (!) equal cofounders and second time with 3. I've learned a …

I just went through this process and ended up getting the HP Omnibook Ultra Flip with a core 7 258v, running Ubuntu 24.10. Performance is excellent, battery life is the best I've e…

There are a number of semantic layer tools out there these days. Each has their own unique approach, but essentially it's a meta layer on top of your database that can be used to d…

You are doing a lot of the work a semantic layer would do for you. I wonder if you would have better luck having the LLM talk to a semantic layer instead of directly to the databas…

This is slightly less interesting now that I can have AI remember bash script syntax for me.

Happy to see them announce the new AMD chips in the 13", but the prices are a little nuts compared to what you can get elsewhere. I bet the desktop is interesting, but first I was …

The constant struggle is the lagging support for the best hardware. Unless you want to buy a machine from a dedicated Linux shop (framework, System76, tuxedo), you are taking a ris…

Thanks for taking a look! Happy to chat, DM me here: https://bsky.app/profile/totalhack.bsky.social I have nothing against SQL of course. The simplified approach of a UI built on t…

Congrats on the launch. I made a tool that has some similar objectives but doesn't present as SQL itself like Trilogy seems to. I'll take a deeper look at Trilogy soon, always inte…

If I'm understanding your intent correctly, I think you could do that with Zillion. https://github.com/totalhack/zillion Disclaimer: been sidetracked by an acquisition at my day jo…

Running a 2024 xps 13 with Ubuntu for work and it's been solid. Had a Lenovo before this which was great bang for the buck but occasional issues with heating up during sleep. Would…

Expect was the first tool that really hooked me at my first job at Sun. I had to write a tool to automate verification of the boot process during firmware dev, handling variety of …

Is this more like text-to-semantic layer or does it throw the schema in the prompt and generate SQL with the llm?

Go f'in get 'em Scarlett.

This looks cool. I built a similar open source semantic data / warehousing tool called Zillion. I use it to power my company's BI but haven't put as much time into the polish as yo…

I'm not opposed to any attempt to remove the need for these full college degrees as a hiring requirement, but this also ignores that the point of many colleges is the network. You …

Loans. Loans are how this happened.

I also assumed this was an April fool's joke from the other terraform.
