That's a bad example: it did not hallucinate about the codebase (which it had access to), but about a rule outside the codebase (which is not in the context, I assume). Yeah, missing requirements can cause it to rely on things it think

Can you write 10k LOC a day without a coding agent? It's the same issue. You can walk 100 miles. Just not in a day. And you can create 10k LOC without a coding agent. Just not in a day. I don't think that coding agents enable tech

But you could still arrive if you walk instead of using the bicycle. And I am sure you can do the same stitches by hand, it just takes forever. Same with coding agents. I could do it by hand. It just would take much longer. Often so long th

Have you really used the latest models (say Opus 4.8+ or Fable)? When was the last time they gave a wrong answer to a question about the code base? Half a year ago that could have happened. But not today.

I usually do so I understand what I am replying, but seriously, the latest Opus and Fable versions get it right more often than I would. The time of AI hallucinations is over, as long as they have the context.

I did that the first time. But how often do you want to say that (in a public chat that their supervisors can read)?

I am a software engineer. Most of the times, the people asking are from product management or devops. Devops contractors are the most difficult ones. They have access to the code, they have access to Claude. But they don't use it.

Sometimes I do that. The problem is that it makes them look bad.

In my life, the bigger issue are people who are not asking Claude, but asking me. Because it would take 15 minutes to find out the answer myself, and 3 minutes to let Claude find it, I ask Claude. So how should I answer? Should I disclose t

870 MWh? It would take about 500 of them to make it through a 1-2 week dunkelflaute .

How can you be sure of that before even having a practical and proven solution for the required scale of storage?

Yet there are whole weeks practically without wind in winter. And most climate models estimate that global warming reduces wind further. Storage in the required dimensions is an unsolved problem.

Storage of energy in the dimensions required for weeks with almost no wind is an unsolved problem. Right now, we can't store enough to make it through a single night without using fossil fuels. Most countries don't even have the c

Countries like UK, Ireland, Germany, Danmark, Netherland, Poland also have dark winters. Solar in winter is only about a fifth of production in summer months. Iceland has geothermal, which is amazing, but won't help central Europe.

In countries with dark winters and without enough hydro power, the only reliable alternative are fossil fuels...

The Amiga was a great computer when it came out, but it was not 10 years ahead of anything. Things progressed incredibly fast back then. The graphics were not 10 years ahead, not even 3 years. First SVGA cards came out in 1987, with a 320x2

I never had any issue like that, but I don’t use it in German. Not surprised it’s more stubborn on German. After all it’s only imitating people speaking that language. I wonder what the topic was though. Was it a legitimate request, or jus

An RSS (Atom...) feed for your blog would be nice.

I get your point, but the RSS format (and Atom, and JSON feed..) and the feeds are also partially to blame: there is just no common HTML subset specified for RSS. Some feeds are formatting their posts specifically for RSS. But they are in t

I think it's an interesting idea, and I would actually buy it, but there's one thing missing for me: a simple API. I use neither Stripe nor GA. All I would need is a simple REST URL that I can ping with the event type, data (amoun

I think the UBI experiments were one-sided. They may have proven that the receivers have profited. But did they show that the givers profited as well, or at least did not suffer enough to significantly reduce their economic output and there

The thing is, there is no hive mind called "society". Everybody works in their own interest. Always, and in every "society". Individual workers work on failing initiatives as long as they get paid. The outcome of the ini
