The assumptions we made about code always led to the biggest issues. If you assumed a junior engineer, or even a senior engineer not familiar with the local practices, would not make certain mistakes, then those mistakes always slipped thro

Will this targeted approach be beneficial to other cancer types? Is there any data or theory about this class of drugs as a more general therapy?

I suspect the net result will be that more Pro $100 subscribers upgrade to $200/mo. If you explicitly do simpler stuff with Opus, you generally have enough Fable time for most programming and planning tasks.

A product is much more than the software and its reliability. The business side is just as big of a lift. You need to build a business , not just a product. A business includes understanding the value proposition, not just a potential solu

Perhaps also a bit of ageism. Always hard to prove. Often implicit.

Of course Solopreneurs were a thing long before AI. It just takes special people. I think the assumption of this article is that there may be a larger array of people capable of running their own business with the aid of AI. I'm simila

I mean, it is possible, that, after verification, credits are added to the Fable usage from your existing subscription plan. Maybe not. But maybe yes. No way to know. And, remember, when Fable was first released, they announced that it was

Perhaps they are adding security controls to bring Fable back online? One can hope.

It seems as though the leaks are always in the Russian section? Perhaps this is why. Humans are the weak link. Damn breathers.

I mostly agree. I'm curious to hear more details about why you think AI cannot replace middle management?

I have 35+ years experience as a manager and engineer at large enterprise tech companies (what the kids now call FAANG, though some of the company names were different back then), and was a Founder, CEO and CTO at a $7M VC funded company an

Harsh take: AI should replace most middle management. It is the easiest part of an organization to replace. The people making things should mostly communicate about company strategy, cross-team issues, and job requirements with an AI. There

Then you should be scared about every single online account you use, since they all have this same capability of suspension of your account. That's inherent in any service policy.

I think the message here is that you can't trust any single cloud provider. You at least need two with full operational capability.

The economics work if you generate the video locally, using your own compute and a pretrained model provided for a fee. The compute bit is the expensive part. Local users could trade time for money. They just don't have a business or

Just saying "no" is unclear. LLMs are still very sensitive to prompts. I would recommend being more precise and assuming less as a general rule. Of course you also don't want to be too precise, especially about "how&quot

Yes, more time on up front spec and plan building. Bite sized specifically to fit within the context window of a single implementation session. Each step should have a verification process that includes new tests. Prior to each step, I prom

I think that comment is interesting as well. My view is that there is a lot of Electron training code, and that helps in many ways, both in terms of the app architecture, and the specifics of dealing with common problems. Any new architectu

Thanks for the performance info! More recent Apple chips get much better performance. Also worth trying the Fast quality setting. Great suggestion about default camera positions. I'll add that to the to-do list. Love the idea of a blin
