I don't know, man. Saying this is "just malware" is really stretching the definition of malware. At a minimum this is some pretty interesting and/or terrifying emergent behavior

I use go for work and basically 100% agent-driven. I'd say using go with agents is a lot better than without. We use to have a consistent source of production errors where we forgot the pointer case in type switches (we'd pass a

The name is pretty ominous if you've read the Three Body Problem series. I don't want my agents planning against me in secrecy. Just out of curiosity, why did you pick that name? Is there anything wallfacey about this project I&#x

The most interesting thing about science fiction to me isn't the things the authors get right, but what they get wrong. Like, the whole house talking in a ChatGPT voice, intelligent appliances, etc: brilliant prescience. But he still t

in general with automated code reviews I've found it fruitful to tell the model what specifically to look for and where. I usually don't get over 10% of the claude opus context window for code reviews, but it of course depends on

What was it reviewing? Was it just a "take a look at this pile of code over here"? Because I think asking any model to review 30M lines of code is a stretch...

What I have noticed in my own work that a lot of the time that used to be for coding is now just waiting. I have three agents working on three different features in parallel, and I'll go back and forth with all of them, correcting thin

I've been reading a lot of stories like this lately. I'm no business genius, but you'd assume that investors are. Are they just blind or are they burning cash on purpose. What's the steelman argument here?

a friend of mine did a high school project where he and a friend learnt it well enough to have a short conversation with each other. That's the only time it has come up in life until now. I hope he sees this.

The scary thing is that it's unclear to me what would have happened if the guy hadn't had a Kik account, and the real perp had used just one underscore. Can you just pick somebody's username from another service to frame them

I agree that IntelliJ is a monster of a resource hog, but I have yet to find an editor where code navigation is as good. That's basically all I use it for these days, in the days of LLMs, and I still think it's worth it. VSCode,

As other commenters have pointed out, some of the comments in there are pretty scary. I guess the astronauts didn't have to read the code: `TC WHIMPER -1 # YES. DONT DO POODOO. DO BAILOUT.`

The caveat here is, as TFA states, is that you need to have "every constraint on the table". And that is almost never the case. Unless you create something in a mature domain, where everything has already been explored, you _won&#

I like the gym analogy. It's like how farmers used to be fit because farming involved a lot of manual labor. Then the tractor came and a lot of the physical work became optional and farmers got fat. Now we're all using fork lifts

AI definitely amplifies this problem, but it's not like it didn't exist before. Old people get scammed the old way all the time too. My mom calls me every once in a while asking about some freebie offer that she gets emailed from
