This seems to be such a non issue to me, I always ignored this and its strange to hear others feel compelled.

I tested it, history feature is per agent session, a cumulative history of all my agents would be nice.

If your boss is that bad, the correct long-term move is to leave, not to wish technology didn’t advance.

I mean is it not clear that companies are just an abstraction for a network of people, and you obviously must be be good with those people, ie seduce them into promoting you. And is it not clear that on the other side, you must keep your op

This is not an easy question. It seemingly boils down to: what are fair ways to extract value from citizens for the shared value of the state? However, the root questions are: what should the state provide, how much, and of what nature? A s

I see a natural equilibrium with a tension: automation (also through AI) causes unit economics to drop and results in cheaper prices. At the same time, salaries for contributors grow because their impact is so high. So you end up with a new

I think by vibe coding he means taking these things at face value instead of rigorously looking if they are up to the standard. When coding you would rigorously look if the code is good / produces any bugs. With vibe coding, you give a

Can you elaborate how this relates to his own competency?

I don’t see how “tech” is limited to software. While your case might be made for software, according to many accounts Musk is a strong driver on the hardware side. For instance, I’ve read the Tesla and SpaceX books by Eric Berger, which are

While your comment represents a common view, also here on HN, I find it bizarre: Hacker News is in part about innovative new technologies, and such new behaviours around them. For what it’s worth, in the last 5 years LLM have been extremely

I dont disagree, but you can horizontally scale a monolith too, no? So scaling vert vs horiz is independent of microservices, its just that separating services allows you to be precise with your scaling. Ie you can scale up a compute heavy

I fully agree on workplace politics, but for system design interviews, are you not also just supposed to ask your interviewer, ie give them your premises and if they like your conclusions? I also understand that some companies and their int

Im no world leading expert but as far as I understand, coupled with events, if an unimportant service goes offline for 5 min (due to some crash, ie "fault"), its possible to have a graceful degradation, meaning the rest of the sys

I dont quite follow. I understand mono vs micro services, and in the last 3 weeks I had to study for system design and do the interviews to get offers. Its a tradeoff, and the system design interview is meant to see if one understands how s

This is a catastrophic moral failing on who ever prompted this. Next thing they will ban chatgpt from teaching you stuff because its not a certified licensed teacher. A few weeks ago my right eye hurt a fair bit, and after it got worse for

Well, let’s assume you’re correct about all that. To me, it seems he was already quite rich before doing all the Trump-related things you mentioned. Those might have made him richer, but I’d suspect they didn’t move the needle much compared

The tone of voice suggests you dislike Musk, but I will still answer in good faith. From what I can see from the outside, he has consistently for many years stated the same goals and worked on them. Any or most financial gains he made, he i

I mean, just as the phrase goes "your terrorist is my rebel," one could say "your propaganda is my information." That's exactly why a decentralized system matters. It doesn't just resist capture by a single aut

I agree with you on several levels, what we call “exceptional” is entirely dependent on the metric we choose. Every species excels in its niche, and human exceptionalism is just our own preferred framing. It's fair to say it often func

I agree and dont understand the OP. I drink coffee out of the fear that I would waste my whole days time. The coffee allows me to spend some hours of focus time on what I want. In line with the blog posts point. This has been a struggle to

It was but so were other models before. OP said the twitter to grok feature is a good use case and I agree. Its great for fact checking. For example it will debunk conspiracy theories and misinformation tweets in general. I even asked it ab

Who decides what is moral? For which moral causes are our contributions beyond a drop in the ocean? I can go work in a soup kitchen, but thats not gonna help thousands or millions of people in need. There is a structural reason why a certai

Well it comes in phases. Last year I read a new book every few days. I probably read 30 books or so, then I got sick of it and stopped. Haven't read a single one since then but also dont care too much about it. I've found watching

From what I followed, its because: They already send payload to space with the falcon rockets (reliable cash cow) and the only point of starship system is proof of concept of full reusability. There is no point to the whole project if they

I too ran into that issue as I nearly cut all sugar from my life since 6 months. As the other pointed out, here is my alternative, which is great [0]! I once drank it raw, it was terrible. But usually I blend it with the European version of

Nice answer, but I can counter: I'm high performing, doing high impact work. For some reason I need to analyse user reviews that use slang. I can't look it up because UD is blocked. Insanity. Maybe our hot new product is suddenly

Funny, I actually go frequently to one or two of these, since I live in Berlin. I pay 42% taxes and still these government pools are not only a bit pricy (no discount if you want to go regularly) but they have terrible, irregular opening ti

Something vaguely similar happened in Berlin: They banned parking rental 50cc scooters on the pavement, they have to be parked on the street, competing for parking with cars. To me this is a terrible rule, completely out of touch. Scooters
