I'm very skeptical of that graph. What does it mean for code to be AI-generated vs human-generated? If I merge a PR that was opened by Claude do all the changes in it automatically count as AI-generated? How about the individual commit

The crazy thing is how cheap it is to spin up a cloud server, but how little actual processing power you're getting for your money. Even if the business manages to keep their cloud spend in check it's probably going to be at the e

Isn't it also true that the deeper and thicker the quagmire, the more tokens one will have to use to wade through it? This seems like a path to eventual LLM lock-in once the codebase gets messy enough. These things could end up being l

I don't think there are good analogies to physical tools. It would be something like a nondeterministic version of a replicator from Star Trek which to me would feel much closer to a slot machine than a CNC mill.

Lots of hair splitting in the comments. The service is so unreliable at this point that I don’t trust them to not train on private repos even accidentally. You’re one vibe-coded PR away from having all your data scooped up regardless of any

Exactly! All LLMs do is “hallucinate”. Sometimes the output happens to be right, same as a broken clock.

I blame the experts. It's their responsibility to explain things to the public and engage in forums that the public is paying attention to (e.g. podcasts). They don't have to bloviate about everything under the sub, but they do ha

Yeah I definitely struggle with this. You need downtime to relax but it's easy to "over relax" just like it's easy to oversleep or overeat or overdo any other number of things that are healthy and necessary but only at t

This is the first time I've heard anyone argue that a food product must be good for you because Americans are consuming a large amount of it. How on earth could you come to that conclusion given how unhealthy our population is?

Have you ever tried the LeetCode live competitions? I found those to be really fun with a great community. Just grinding problems in isolation can definitely be depressing.

Yup, I remember when I got a loaner car that had those new momentary switches and I couldn't believe how terrible they were. What made it all the more baffling/disappointing was that earlier BMWs had some of the nicest turn signal

For me at least it's about the ergonomics of the microphone form factor. I'm not comfortable with a standalone mic in front of my face. I don't like having to remember to keep the proper distance. I got a nice high quality br

Thank you for sharing this and for providing explicit instructions during your interviews. It's confusing and awkward when the interviewers set it up as a casual conversation. There are no natural conversational cues when you're t

Define "rich." Have you been working in a coal mine since you emerged from the womb or did you maybe have a few things provided for you at some point in your life?
