Many people working at frontier labs came out this week with estimates of 10% chance of catastrophic harm or greater. I’m not in the full doomer camp, but it seems obvious that these agents can hack in swarms, cooperate, and serious compani

The new ones for me are adding extra terms like the 3 faces, to park at the door. (It’s 3 methods that block the thread)

It seems clear that AI can port libraries at will to any other language. So even if we disagree on which language should win, the best libraries will be ported regardless. Each has their benefits: Python wins in AI and syntax niceties. Lose

Thank you. I will also immediately stop using backblaze. Its purpose is to independently back up my hard drive. Not to pick and choose.

I’d add that token pricing doesn’t work for anyone but the frontier models. Everything else will be commodified. So Opus can charge us top prices per token until a lower (or local) model hits parity and then price goes to zero.

This is a great idea. Did you happen to release the source for this? I run into this all the time!

We shall call it Achilles, as Claude Mythos is its only weakness.

It also depends on if the CVEs can be fixed by LLMs too. If they can find and fix them, then it's very good.

Exactly. C++ is still waiting for its "uv" moment, so until then modules aren't even close to solved.

I’m writing a new type of CRDT that supports move/reorder/remove ops within a tree structure without tombstones. Claude Code is great at writing some of the code but it keeps adding tombstones back to my remove ops because “resear

You should consider calling these "behaviors" to mimic behavior trees in game / robot AI. They follow the same notion of a single behavior being active at once: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior_tree

From what I've seen a ton of people are using Claude Code or Cursor daily. I wouldn't be surprised if most startups are at 100% use right now. The big tech companies are a bit slower, but have started rolling out almost unlimited

This is great! Please consider even easier settings for kids. Maybe 2 notes (not 4) as the min starting point and slower ramp up as you succeed. Also, I think the missed the first note UI could feel a little nicer. Something about the popup

In a similar way I changed all of my build and deployment scripts to Go not long ago. The actual benefit was utility functions used by the service could be shared in deployment. So I could easily share code to determine if services/dbs

GitHub actions are expensive enough that self-hosted was the only real option. I can't imagine this will do anything other than push people from the entire ecosystem.

Iac is definitely a failure point, but the manual alternative is much worse! I’ve had a lot of benefit from using pulumi, simply because the code can be more compact than the terraform hcl was. For example, for the fall over regions (from t

The correct term was always “download”. We should be allowed to download and run anything we want on our own phones.

Thank you. This is beautiful said. I will also add that I don’t think chat bots are the final product, so it leaves the open question which product is the last one not being commoditized.

I know this is highly controversial, but I now leave the comments in. My theory is that the “probability space” the LLM is writing code in can’t help but write them, so if i leave them next LLM that reads the code will start in the same spa

To give you a process that might help: I’ve found you have to use Claude Code to do something small. And as you do it iterate on the CLAUDE.md input prompt to refine what it does by default. As it doesn't do it your way, change it to s

It’s this exactly. Gifted programs help many kids who wouldn’t have been able to access other options. If you close them rich people will simply go private, and the rest of the people who can’t afford 45k/year will be back where they s

To clarify. Protobuf’s simplest change is adding a field to a message so wrapping maps of maps, maps of fields, oneof fields into a message makes these play to its strengths. It feels like over engineering to turn your Inventory map of item

Very seriously, try not to read about it. Delete the apps that make you most anxious. Then eat better, exercise three times a week, and together those will help you feel better and sleep better. Finally search for people or activities that

Not a raise, they merged with ironSource in 2022 (adtech). A new business model was likely baked in: https://kotaku.com/unity-ironsource-merger-ad-tech-layoffs-1... https://mobilegamer.biz/inside-unitys-trou
