I was the kind of shell guru whose teeth itched when they saw someone doing `grep | awk`. Then I had to try and bring Windows into a Mac+Linux CI system under Jenkins groovy files that were full of `"""sh` fragments, shell sc

Careful - you start from the POSIX terminal spec, you think maybe it would be interesting having objects instead of raw text streams, and next thing you've reinvented powershell... (*35 years living and loving sh/ksh/bash&#x2

It doesn't sound like you were trying to launch a product, but doing an experiment and someone threw you under the HN-spotlight-bus :) Is this a "see what I can achieve with LLM coding" or is this "build this and see how

On the summer solstice, with the bulb going on shortly after sunrise and burning out just before it started to get dark? :)

Using mosh to do the same (which is helpful if you're on a laptop and you want to survive lid closes or ip roaming)

I thought that was where I was going to end up, but that's where Claude's remote control or copilot's agents tab spared me. The hitching is compounded for me because I tend to run the agents in squads: the agent I talk to ope

> On an early checkpoint of LFM2.5-2.6B, 10.2% of completions on hard math and coding prompts produced repetitive loops. After Antidoom training, that rate fell to 1.4%, with eval scores improving across the board as a direct result of r

I suspect the next real advance will be the LLM equivalent of thin-client/fat-server evolution, a sort of "local lora" system that forms the unique part of your own agent(s) distinct from the underlying static model, and ca

Maybe, but I think the downplay is worth it to emphasize that the things have to be done . The point is precisely that token generation is a phenomenal power source but it does not give you anything but debt unless you build the tools to

I do have an entirely AI written project, and I don't think I've reviewed even 1% of the code the bots have generated; it's been my pure vibe project. It's about what you'd expect, too. Elsewhere, I still haven&#x27

I feel we are caught in a "this is fine, pay more and we may turn down the fire" situation. The LLM itself produces one token. Some tool adds that token to the input and runs it again, flogging the horse. Downstream another tool,

Minor nit: In familiarity, you gloss over the fact that it's character rather than token based which might be worth a shout out: "Microgpt's larger cousins using building blocks called tokens representing one or more letters.

Gross ignorance and incompetence. TLDR: I don't understand my native command line, see how lost I got when I tried to do my thing in a different environment. - Not a unique problem to Windows or even MSVC; He's gonna hate XCode, -

The Visual Studio Build Tools are installable with winget (`winget search buildtools`). There are licensing constraints, IANL but essentially you need a pro+ license on the account if you're going to use it to build commercial software
