To me, the article comes across as introspective (which by the way, I found extremely relatable) and not preachy. Your comment also feels that you are not happy about where the industry is headed but don't you think your anger is mispl

In college (~5 years ago) I had to write a move-data-from-A-to-B pipeline¹ for a club. I had a simple version ready in ~1hour but it looked bad and slow. So I stayed up the whole night for the next 6 hours finding about weird MongoDB comman

One of the coolest things I've seen. I'd recommend the "Behind the scenes" video in the page.

This is relatable. I find myself using LLMs more in cases where I don't care about learning and have made multiple tools to fir my workflow (Swift apps, etc. without ever touching Swift code). When it comes to things I do know about or

Can you give examples of how they are different? I've only done OOP in JS so I'm not aware of what I'm missing or what's supposed to be different.

Re: the lcm_expand(summaryID) tool > Because expansion can recover arbitrarily large volumes of earlier conversation, this tool is restricted to sub-agents spawned via the Task tool; the main agent cannot call it directly. This restricti

This is really cool and something I've envisioned building for a long time! There is a bug in the entity tracking. For the entity "github", it shows a positive sentiment. HN does NOT like GitHub (for reasons good or bad). If

Getting into reading again this year after a long break. The most memorable read of this year was "The Count of Monte Cristo" (1846) by Alexander Dumas . It's one of the greatest stories ever told. It's ~1250 pages but I

I'm confused by what Cursor is trying to be. They shipped plan mode and debug mode which are developer focused tools and I'm happy about them. On the other hand, features like these are kinda distracting to me. I wouldn't min

Exactly my thoughts. The only incompatibility with Bun is the unavailability of the `using` keyword: > If you are using Bun (which doesn't natively support using and uses a transpiler which is incompatible with this library)... I sk

A linter rule provided by the library could be helpful here. I know it's just a workaround but probably easier than going for a solution that does compile time checks.
