I think his point was that a lot of people are more interested in these things. Tech just happens and is useful, it's not necessarily attractive as a thing to investigate in detail. And as to your last point; well that demonstrates you

I mean a big part of a -growth- CEOs literal job is to guess on what the future holds and effectively bet on it. Big-co CEOs are naturally expected to share their bets - and they aren't going to couch it with a "oh well no one cou

As a native English speaker; pellucid was new to me. Fusillades specifically was unfamiliar but I inferred if from context and knowing fusilier.

No judgement here. And you are right btw; we are biased constantly in everything we do, and it's a better person than you our me that can truly dodge it! I read a study a while ago (sorry Google didn't find it again) that said a l

Any elite selection process has high risk for not selecting the best people. Either due to corruption or, even more likely, institutional biases. Malcolm Gladwell has a few episodes of revisionist history that looks at some US universities

Congrats Hannah. I'll pile on with my own anecdote; I've run an internal conference at work for several years and we always book an external speaker. She remains my (close) second favourite[1], with a choose your own adventure tal

As I understand it; the point is to ask for an SVG which would demonstrate a conceptual understanding of what is being asked for and that is an important test IMO. What sufficiently hard, but useful, problem would you ask the model for?

Agreed. And more; the Macbooks are pretty much the same - some are god approximations, some are terrible, all of them are recognisably a MacBook. And if you start using it they can train on it. The problem isn't the test, its that is a

Nowhere near the OP (UK) but I've noticed a lot of fun-only lanes arent bothering to rent shoes and just let you wear whatever you have.

Important context is; he is speaking to a generally small-c conservative. So 3) he is well aware of his audience and is talking to them directly.

It's kinda a shame; I've noted Paul is leaning into the right wing rhetoric more and more on X, and then more in this speech. It's a shame. Both AOC and PG are often right in their own way, and then deeply entrenched in other

That's totally fair and things may change. For me its the history and the fact I can come back to it. If I am honest I believe my final solution will be a combination of Open Claw, a custom knowledge wiki based on Wikmd. I just need a

Some of the advantages are second order. For example; ChatGPT is replacing my Google searching. Not necessarily because it's better, or because it's summaries are better than Google (I find them subjectively better but it's n

Obviously I know nothing about your product, so completely uninformed! But as an enterprise buyer $50/m and $10K/m is the same bucket in terms of cost. No one will blink until around 100K, depending on what it is. (The point I am

Your getting that interest because it looks like a steal. Ultimately those businesses couldn't care less about $50/m (except to chance it) but they want - or even need - the enterprise terms. They will pay $50 for your product...

I agree with you, but seperate point in many respects - the conversation was about replacing existing robust medical infrastructure. I fully agree that AI could extend access; but to build on what others have said too, lack of physical diag

Doctors make errors all the time though, so the real argument is about the error percentage. If AIs is lower then it's safer (but it's hard to have that convo, I recognise). Besides; this article was about diagnosis not prescribin

What matters ultimately is the system achieves your goals. The clearer you can be about that the less the implementation detail actually matters. For example; do you care if the UI has a purple theme or a blue one? Or if it's React or

So, rollback and try again with the insight. AI makes it cheap to implement complex first drafts and iterations. I'm building a CRM system for my business; first time it took about 2 weeks to get a working prototype. V4 from scratch to

I meant that frame very deliberately. Use of the word AI is misleading people that LLMs are intelligent. They model what looks like intelligence but with very hard limits. The two advantages they have over human brains are perfect recall an

I just feel this is a great example of someone falling into the common trap of treating an LLM like a human. They are vastly less intelligent than a human and logical leaps that make sense to you make no sense to Claude. It has no concept o

If a manager is handling (almost) all disputes of all sorts, then they will fundamentally lack authority to enforce an outcome on a real dispute. They simply are too involved because resolution requires you to take some sort of side. If my

You may not mean it but I do think sometimes framing it this way implies leading and managing is something that requires less ability (it's a skill in its own right). What I think is true is people cap out their technical competency, a

I suspect this is written by someone who stepped into managing a team and no further. My reflection overall is; he's probably heard of servant leadership but not understood it? It's not about sweeping away problems but more a mind

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say NextJs with Auth.js is pretty boring technology. I'm struggling to see what you'd choose to do differently here? Edit: actually I'll go further and say I'm guiding against

I wouldn't call that accidental complexity? It's just a set of preferences. Your last point; feels a bit idealistic. The point of code is to achieve a goal, there are ways to achieve with optimal efficiency in construction but a l

Yeh I think you are right and I am also finding larger apps built using SDD steadily get harder to extend. > For large existing codebases, SDD is mostly unusable. I don't really agree with the overall blog post (my view is all of th

I did this first too. The trick is realising that the "spec" isn't a full system spec, per se, but a detailed description of what you want to do. System specs are non trivial for current AI agents. Hand prompting every step i
