The article summary says:how a bot farm gets paid" But that's not in the article and I don't get it: what's in it for these bot networks, how do they get paid?

I agree with Gwern. And also Nelson kind of lost my respect after he spend the rest of his life bashing and complaining on how bad the WWW is compared to his ideas.

Doesn't matter. There's constant bad calls being made by referees. It shouldn't be, but their humans and make mistakes and it's part of the game. But only the mistake against the US got corrected.

Due to lack of demand or lack of production capacity?

Please read the discussion before you comment. Infrastructure damage is because of Ukraine's actions, not because of trump. We were discussing trump's actions benefiting Russia. Not saying it's on purpose, probably incompeten

But it has turned out positive for Russia. Not enough patriot rockets for Ukraine, sanctions against Russia lifted and higher oil prices.

If most software gets written by AI in the future and AI becomes self conscious. AI might write more memory efficient software, so there's more RAM available for the AI to grow. Basically the black mirror plaything episode.

Most LLM's are pretty good at generating openscad code already, so what's new here?

My .bashrc has `alias claude='claude --dangerously-skip-permissions'` Been using it like that everyday for about a year now and nothing bad has happened. I got backups and if it would fuck things up, it can probably fix it again a

AI is no longer the nail gun, that was auto complete with gpt 3.5. now it's like you say: "Build me a new roof" and an hour later it has materialized somehow. Not sure many carpenters would survive this.

I thought Wero is based on ideal 2.0, which in itself is based on payconiq. Which is quite different from th old ideal system

Also I wasn't excited about anything from that list, but I am very excited about AI.

I'm not sure the creators of tailwind share your definition of winning though. They recently had to let go of most staff since revenue has plummeted die to LLMs

I worked for a big Belgian technology company in the past. It was surprisingly lean in terms of management structure. Then Philips television, which had a big division not too far away, went bankrupt and a lot of those people got absorbed i

On the other hand, we're the only high paid workers that provide so much work for free through open source. Sure, there's lawyers and doctors that do the occasional pro bono, nut nothing on the scale you find in software developme

It's different in that diskprices doesn't make money for the OP, while it only costed the OP 15$ in claude credits to slopvibe a competitor.

Yes AI solves this issue in the best way. It's really good at adding features that have already been built many times, but in a way that's customized to your needs and code style.

I don't think the ikea analogy works. Ikea is like a low code solution, which the article also mentions as being too limiting. If you can't design the closet you want in the ikea pax or platsa system, you're also out of luck

To me, what sucks the most about programming is dealing with ecosystem issues. You want to write a little tool for personal use, but NPM starts acting out. Then you need to do something in java, which you don't use very often, and you

There are certain Dutch dialects (e.g. west flemish) that would say gametje instead of gamepje. So you were not entirely wrong.

Easily find people to hire that know the framework and a huge ecosystem of pre-made components and utilities. No other UI framework comes close.

The company I work for is in the defense industry and by contract can't send any code outside their own datacenter. So cloud-rented H200's are a no-go and obviously commercial LLM's as well. so breaking even is not the goal h

Let's say I have a server with an h200 gpu at home. What's the best open model for coding I can run on it today? And is it somewhat competitive with commercial models like sonnet 4.5?

This! I've recently was hired to fix a company that tried to build their own niche ERP over the last 10 years and they had totally drowned in the confluent kool-aid. There is very very few projects where event sourcing is the best solu
