Let's see what it is. They said "significantly" not "tremendously". Doubling the price would be significant, still, it would be very affordable. Let's see!

Meta never wants to be left out.

It seems like one day, Google or Meta might produce a coding model worth discussing. That day is not today.

It really depends on how you define "complete". It's possible the answer in "not large at all" if we're looking for high-quality, reliable, user-friendly software that works near p…

Agree. Harness can not be a moat. There are many open harnesses and they are at least on par with the providers ones. It looks like Anthropic/OpenAI's approach to vendor lock-in is…

People tend to overlook the main benefit of Tailwind: components and pages become self-contained. As such, changing them doesn't cause unintended side-effects to other pages and al…

These risks are significantly overstated.

I generate a lot of code, a lot of PRs, a lot of issues and git/Github are fine for me. As a software engineer, I face many challenging issues but git is not one of them.

Well, except for the part where the religion forbids it.

I guess they have to make some statement about this, but we don't have to care. This is like the zoo making a statement about the employment of clowns. Clowns a a circus thing, nob…

Did you ask them if they wanted to talk to each other? I'd like to see the user research in this.

Yes, the way you are gathering data is very inaccurate. For example, a certain county has bombed several churches in the past few years - and that appears not to register at all.

They had a good run!

I'm surprised that Nemotron gets mentioned at all. In my experiments with it for coding tasks it performed extremely poorly, essentially unusable.

Yes, please - delete my health data. I want my health data - I didn't want Samsung or anyone else to have it unless I provide it. And even then, you can't keep it - you can look at…

I do all my development as a longish running pipeline that mimics how I used to write software. There is a high-level plan, it gets decomposed into steps that get performed sequent…

We are all people. This ally-of-the-west framing is propaganda. Who has harmed me more: this US or China? Who do I have more in common with: a tech worker in China or a US governme…

I'm with the herd on this one: unless you're looking for a sort of "retro" feel, most designers are not reaching for Material Design.

I think git it the perfect system to bring order AI coding. Generate code however you like, but ultimately, it goes through a sensible, proven, and auditable pipeline. As someone a…

My entire repo is an audit trail of AI coding-agent edits

Maybe I'll give Nemotron another try. Yesterday I used the latest one on OpenRouter and it was bad - worse than StepFun

The sweet spot is really duplicating the wrong abstraction: I see you Claude!

I used to use GLM before I knew about coding subscriptions and it was okay. I've tried every version since 4.6 and this one is doing a great job a spec-implementation runner. If I …

There is plenty of biased and misleading information on the Internet, I can't imagine paying the NYT to get it from them.
