It was a pet project of mine back in 2013 [0]... revived it (with a bit of help from Claude) and made it updated to Scala 3. Feedback welcome! [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7614130

Put aside whether this was justified or not, or the potential Streisand effect or PR damage (or vice versa). What signal is this sending to the young Google engineer who wants to build the next Gmail? Even if this violated every internal po

LLMs diverge, not converge. They slightly increase entropy if not controlled. While you can have DRY skills and use AI to organize AI (in loops(tm) like Boris does) but eventually if you don’t understand the code, you are taking yourself ou

Is this surprising to anyone? I thought that was a given. I'm getting de-facto unlimited use of a model more expensive than Opus 4.8 for $20 a month.

Been in this rabbit hole since JWT shipped. As others have mentioned, cookies have their own risks, you're now juggling both XSS and CSRF, and the CSRF defenses (SameSite, tokens) do nothing against XSS since that's a same-origin

Great idea! Just quick feedback. Asked it to “Draw a pelican riding a bicycle.” On mobile the response (not a technical diagram) wasn’t visible, initially thought it just didn’t work). Asked it then to draw a diagram for an X replacement,

Still do. Composer 2.5 is a beast. But even with Opus (and Fable for a few days) their harness is many times faster. The main reason for me to use CC is the $200 subsidized pro max plan. Also their computer use in the cloud agents (when it

Good catch. I'm sure there could be more technical inaccuracies in the talk, but again, this is for entertainment purposes I assume, not education.

Interesting point. Just a small correction, the Anthropic stake is higher. ($13B + another $20B option if they hit certain milestones, which I believe is almost guaranteed) So it's closer to $33B In any case, there is no reason for th

Asking contributors to first make sure there is an approved requirement before creating a PR sounds like a great idea regardless of the use of LLM. But another issue is - AI disclosure (agent, model etc). I'm sure others tried similar

Am I the only one who slightly miss the pelican on a bike? It was a nice novelty... of course I could make one myself, but I became conditioned to expect one for every new model. Other than his great writing on AI, it became part of the pac
