Regardless of if a new tool is useful or not, if it’s being pushed internally then embrace it. If it’s not useful now you have authority on why. And if it’s not is useful then you are better at your job.

More the second. For programmers this is the equivalent of when accountants got spreadsheets. We can just tell the machine what to do without manually performing all the steps. Some programmers enjoyed the code writing more than the problem

Export controls have highly motivated China to figure out how to make state of the art chips entirely in country. It’ll certainly take years but I would not bet against China’s ability to manufacture something.

You must have different use cases than me. I find even Deepseek Flash v4 0731 even outperforms Opus for me (at 10x the speed two). Using Sol, Fable, Kimi 3 and other recent models has been unbelievable for me. I didn’t think we’d get to thi

I don't understand this argument. Go to OpenRouter and look at all of the unsubsidized providers.

This was my biggest frustration with LLM based coding but Agent Skills have largely solved it. While there’s a lot of room to improve them it’s a huge game changer for effectively coding harnesses.

This is actually a big advantage of using AI. Using simple mature tech stacks following best practices makes your product much better. Developers have a strong desire to reinvent the wheel and it wastes so much time. Innovative should only

I found it to be an interesting angle but thought it was odd that a key point is is "LLMs dominate chess-like domains" while LLMs are not great at chess https://dev.to/maximsaplin/can-llms-play-chess-ive-teste

Was this not at-will employment? While getting it in writing is good, it doesn't actually protect you. Vast majority of people are working at-will. Which means either party can change the terms of employment whenever. And if the other

What sort of legislative changes would you like to see to address this?

I would strongly argue that coordinated censorship of media should be illegal. It's not today. But is it in society's interest that a small group of elites gets to decide what we can discuss on our primary discussion platforms?

Fact checking is just censorship. It's literally a group that gets to decide what is an acceptable view and what isn't. How is that not just plain censorship? You can certainly argue that censorship isn't always a bad thing.

XMPP supports extensions. Generally speaking, use the standard until you can't. Then just extend it and write up a proposal for your extension to make it into the next version of the official protocol.

I have no idea how Slack threads are intended to be used. Their own examples are very trivial and the implementation feels like like a first pass that they never did any usability testing with.

This is obviously a lie as in their own demo video it's very clearly not a physical chameleon. Remember articles like this are PR pieces. Specifically written to sell the product and find more investors in the company.

Food studies are always all over the place. The only real consistency is that eating loads of processed food (think chips/soda) is strongly correlated with health issues.

Simple rule of thumb is one backend per team. Things like upgrading the language version should not require coordination between multiple dev teams. Of course there's 100s of permutations that work. Optimize for your situation. And if

I wouldn't say that. My team uses a Rails backend and React apps on top. For us, React apps compared to Rails views just about cut our feature delivery time in half. Of course, it depends on what domain you are working in. Dynamic fron

I don't think they will. I saw a bunch of this collection at Target and it all looks terrible in person. To me Lego as a brand is quality and creative. Whereas these products all felt cheap and janky. I would bet on them all being on c

I would be very surprised if Trader Joe's lease didn't include parking conditions for exactly this reason. Bad parking kills many businesses.

I think we need to find a better way for the philosophy behind the scientific method to click. The entire idea of a "fact" is flawed. We simply have more good evidence for some things than others. Teaching people to critically eva

Is this because middlemen take too big of a cut? I work for an agricultural company that does a decent amount of hay sales as a middle man but I'm not too familiar with that part of the business.

So? The solution to discrimination based on race is certainly not to discriminate based on race. Why do you think more racism is the solution?

Ok. So basically zoning but pretending it's not called zoning.

by cracell 5y ago
Just no. Zoning is extremely important. You should not be allowed to build a factory in the middle of a neighborhood next to a school. There are certainly bad zoning laws but to say they are all bad is just ignorant nonsense.

Ok... First off there's no way Zuckerberg wrote this. Might've been involved but these are the words of a marketing team working with a legal team. Secondly why do you see Zuckerberg as a great CEO?

Sure but this is like DRM. You just create an arms war. Underage users would find ways to appear to be 18 or older. Or use multiple accounts to continue playing. This is already common in many grind games. You have support accounts that fee
