my first thought was this isn't 2024, right? i remember someone telling me about this back in 2012. Well, turns out that was his earlier house! https://kentonshouse.com/ the view for the new house is insane! congrats,

If it's a boring reason, they should just say so. To decline to comment seems very fishy.

I think this could lead to the tests getting harder to reason about over time because individual test size will just grow (many iterations of deleting the simple test in favor of a more complicated test that also asserts the simple things)

i doubt that's the goal for them. i bet they just really don't have capacity for people using it a ton, yet they wanted people to be able to try it out while it's new. so they compromised and made it temporarily available. a

sounds like the link with AI is tenuous at best given the other comments, but I'll take it as an opportunity to say a few things I believe anyway: 1. AI is really helpful for a lot of things 2. to the extent that AI can do something pe

i guess i don't blame a writer who's job is threatened by this technology to write a piece like this. but the perspective is ultimately one where they are complaining about how it affects them, without regard to the end user. it&#

this was definitely me in high school. i still fondly remember the day when we could use our Ti-83+ for our exam but we had to show the teacher that we cleared memory for notes and formulas. So i wrote a program that just made it look like

I think it's the least hostile thing they can say, and I respect their decision for their own project. That said, it still feels like they are unnecessarily hobbling their project. LLMs are tools and they can help you think, research,

yes but didn't greg brockman say he just runs on xhigh at all times?

yeah there's way more demand, and at the same time, it's way easier for the company to build and maintain (with the help of AI). Great to see!

if you include "it turns out that", you're implying that maybe you thought the same as them in the past, but looked into it, and learned something interesting. if you omit that, you're just correcting them and subtly imp

i don't know what else they can say about their own business.. but it's clearly cope. sure, there's a lot of compliance/legal concerns, but AI is probably already better at reading all the relevant information and encodi

last i checked, you can't annotate inline with planning mode. you have to type a lot to explain precisely what needs to change, and then it re-presents you with a plan (which may or may not have changed something else). i like the idea

they have pretty fierce competition though, so i doubt this is intentional. my guess is they just have a million things to do and that isn't at the top of the list

if i were you @susam, i'd use claude code to parse all these submissions into your json file! i bet opus 4.5 would do it flawlessly

what are your goals? it's usually tough to sell things to developers because they are very particular about how they want their software to work, and also would rather build their own tools much of the time (which is increasingly true

by dack 11mo ago
I didn't like that there was a long delay after you move your mouse, and since all the calculation happens on the frontend, i figured you could easily make it ~instantly update and follow you around. So i (well, claude) made a version

yeah it's crazy to think that claude 4 has only been out a month. And the previous iteration 3.7 was launched only in February! but also I think the interesting thing is that people didn't jump on MCP immediately after it launched

by dack 1y ago
yeah current AIs are surprisingly good at figuring out which tools to call and how to call them!

by dack 1y ago
MCP still feels so early. It's getting better - we went from "set up `npx` on your system and edit this JSON file in an obscure directory" to "set the name and URL of your MCP server" in claude.ai. But you're r

personally i think DSLs could be helpful if they are really good at: 1. explaining the syntax clearly 2. providing a fast checker that provides good error messages 3. prevents errors LLMs seem pretty good at figuring out these things when g

Calorie tracking is also about educating yourself about how many calories certain things are, so you can make better decisions. Like, oil is insanely caloric and can accidentally add hundreds of calories, but it's nearly impossible to

I think the OP's point is that there are more "dark mirror ideologies" than the author claims, because the author was focused on examples that are too extreme (and therefore rare). The OP is showing that there are more reaso

this is cool, but holy crap that's a lot of work for a seemingly-simple type of feature!
