Sure, ideally, but if no one can agree on the spec (as evidenced by the need for these types of articles,) then it's not really saving me much effort is it? Better to just pick something and go with it, then argue about the spec more

REST seems to bring out people who like to define specs and correct others on following the spec or not. There are many other things in tech like this. To be honest, I just kind of don't understand the point. Could my API be better fol

I keep running into this as well. Someone shared a link to a study from last year telling me that AI doesn't make programmers as productive as they think. The study was obviously done months prior to it's release. So evaluating th

Yeah this is exactly what I'm waiting for. Personally, I don't think we're at that point yet. While I do think model improvement is starting to plateau (reaching a local ceiling), I'm not convinced local models are as go

If you’re arguing that model metrics don’t necessarily translate into useful output, I agree. That’s not how I measure the success of a mode and not really the point I'm trying to make. I try to set things up and test it on my actual p

I don't think you're going to get many "true" answers to this. The opportunity cost of not using the latest and best models is just too much right now. Every month I research this and come to the same conclusion: the tim

Interesting, so you're saying Anthropic/Openai/etc will get a general solution that won't be hands off. The moat for other companies will be creating the specific, managed solution. I can see that, assuming models don&#x

I wonder how long until Claude/OpenAI eat a lot of the current AI/Agent SaaS's lunch. Originally I thought they would stick towards being a model provider mainly, but with all the recent releases it seems they do want to prov

> Fundamentals of Physics by Halliday, Resnick, Walker I strongly recommend this textbook. I used in college, and it's really good. There are a lot of problems for each chapter, I suggest doing them as they help a lot.

It's kinda wild to take something people really like and just keep re-writing it while keeping the same name. They were around when Angular 1 -> Angular 2 right? No one liked that. Angular 2 is good but calling it Angular 2 when it

Working on some fun/silly projects. My favorite so far is: "The Anti-AI UI Test". After ChatGPT Atlas came out I thought it would be fun to find UI patterns that AI browsers couldn't figure out like multiple download but

Yeah I thought the same, they're automating ordering on instacart. That's such a small task. I wonder if it was a paid product placement

AI seems obvious, but social video? Are they saying people watch TikToks instead of reading Wikipedia, or people who used to look things up don’t bother anymore because of TikTok?

> This distinction is important. Sometimes, creating a separate service is the scrappy thing to do, sometimes creating a monolith is. Sometimes not creating anything is the way to go. I think this hits the nail on the head. People are tr

This perfectly captures my thoughts about the situation. I don't know why they're so resistant to do treat SPAs as a completely valid way to use React in 2025. The majority of devs still use React primarily as a SPA. Recent State

This has been my exact issue with giving up reddit. It's really hard to replace very niche topics without it, since many online forums are dead. I also append so many searches on google with "reddit" because the top results a

There are definitely problems with react, but I think his point was that they're not big enough to justify a change. Though I agree trying other frameworks is a good practice. See what you're missing, or understand your preferred

Yeah it's interesting because on the one hand you're adding one more step to login. You're adding friction. On the other hand, it's pretty obviously a good security practice. I wonder what the product and stakeholders di
