    People need to stop yelling "Slop!" all the time and saying silly things like "every line of code was reviewed by a human". First, it's ridiculous. There is no possible way to veri…

    I guess you're just supposed to read Clausewitz not actually understand it.

    A large number of logically irreconcilable perspectives (in one's own mind) is the precise definition of cognitive dissonance. You also say that I may be building a straw man witho…

    I'm done. The cognitive dissonance over AI has jumped the shark. It's not fair that it's everywhere. It's not fair that only a few have it. It's not fair that it uses so much elect…

    I've always loved the original work and it's nice to see they're still working on it. I've always wondered if there was a way to connect this back to infrastructure rather than ima…

    Is this being handed over to the Bytecode Alliance or is this a hard fork and will diverge from Chicory? It isn't clear from the announcement but I suspect the former.

    What your discussing is a tautology so it is not clear.

    If you have factual observations to make that's fine but can we stop with the "smells like vibe coding" attacks? It's like an AI version of an ad-hominem attack.

    This is just like when Paypal got started and was basically operating their own bank. Good luck doing that without getting in trouble. This is selling pharmaceutical drugs over the…

    I really enjoy Patrick Boyle's reports. Really high information content with very little fluff. I love how he sneaks in the deadpan snarky comment every once in a while.

    I replaced all the light switches in my house with smart dimmers and have the lights dim in the evening. It happens in steps so it's noticeable and it's like a clock ticking down. …

    What does verifying code by hand even mean? Do we now have artisanal testing, lovingly hand crafted? I get the current debate about LLM assisted coding but this is mudslinging and …
