When the barrier to entry for software was high, free unlimited publicly hosted git repositories made sense. Not only did you have to have some basic understanding of software, but…

Adding onto this I and many others have asked for a ui extension API to actually make use of AI tools and they've adamantly refused. Until someone else with the time and resources …

Good for the construction companies, the billion dollar corporations, and the whole 4 people needed to run each one. Not once instance of these datacenters has proven to be benefic…

I shipped an internal company application using SwiftUI a couple of years ago and the author pretty much nailed all of my pain points. At the very least in JavaScriptLand™ you are …

Interesting pattern but it sounds like it's fundamentally incompatible with setups using embassy https://embassy.dev/

``` #![cfg_attr(not(test), no_std)] ``` Test code doesn't need to live on the device itself. You can call no_std code from std code and tell the compiler "hey, this code is only ra…

If you're using it for hobby projects and you're budget constrained yeah. If you're making a sales pitch the $3500 is an investment in raising sales.

Reading Claude's outputs is an 'attack'

Why does this need an entirely separate repo instead of being a feature in the existing Codex project?

The moat never was and will never be the models, it's the hardware. This is exactly like nuclear weapons: The recipe for a nuke isn't a hidden secret. Getting the infrastructure an…

The argument is that it will make $OAI and $ATHR billions of dollars because U.S. customers with deep pockets will have nowhere to go but the "vetted as safe and verified model pro…

> If the maintainer of the largest and most consequential open-source project on the planet can treat LLMs as a tool to be judged on its results rather than a category to be banned…

When talking about "open source" models no one is talking about the legal framework and textual doctrine of open source. They simply want to know: "can I run this on hardware I own…

It is a given. Unless the Trump admin figures out how to ban 1s and 0s, you can't stop Chinese labs from open sourcing their models. They can certainly ban new providers from using…

> Writing code is cool, but wouldn't it be cooler to type "build me a plugin showing populations around the world" and it Just Worked? I can't think of a string of words more unfit…

So this is why Masayoshi Son was lashing out at critics recently.

> Battle-tested, mature code > fresh rewrite. > Existing Zig codebase has seen X amount of battle-testing. Rust rewrite: 0 (except -I'm assuming- passing test suites). Not taking a…

I like XKCD but I don't really agree with the underlying premise of this one. When I was in the Netherlands, one of the global gold standards in terms of urban planning and design,…

Moore's responses read more like a politician who's been caught in a scandal and is deseperate to change the subject instead of tackling the questions head on. > Michael Moore, the…

A more plausible explanation: People were told for years they can't use Rust for their new projects because it hasn't been "proven" in industry yet. So the option was to sit back a…

if only we lived in such a world

> The philosophy behind [Rust] and the language itself is really good. I just don’t want to use it. That's all that needed to be said. He only makes himself and the rest of the Zig…

not for these reasons alone but let's not pretend like they didn't factor them in at all

Here's an easy one: Their CEO is a megalomaniac who brags about "killing people"[0] and can't string together coherent sentences on live television[1]. Did I mention it's backed by…
