I thought so too. When I started, I was obsessed with getting every variable and every step of the process just right. I measured and documented everything: The number of folds, the humidity in the room ... Then I discovered Jim Lahey'

I learned to bake when I lived in London, because the average bread was simply awful. It's surprisingly easy to get something as good at home, as long as you have a decent dutch oven. It really makes me wonder what else is going on eve

I understand the rationale. The app you granted full disk access three months ago might have significantly changed. You can't reset the permissions for a given app after every update, as you might end up prompting the user three times

Do they even have the moat to pull the same sort of playbook with Miro? We used to use it for remote retros and whiteboarding, we ended up not renewing because we were already paying for Lucid and there was little added value. I'm curi

We should remove the red tape and let Joe down the street operate, that will surely fix everything. It has to be the regulation, not the parasitic layer of health insurance racket in the middle.

Is this such a big news that it'd warrant texting people over?

It looks beautiful, but it’s definitely not something I’d buy in its first generation. I'd really want to wait and see how it fares after a year of real life usage.

The incumbents can just swallow the competition and consolidate further. The end state of crony capitalism is always a monopoly.

In a market with perfect competition, perhaps. Healthcare is far closer to a monopoly. Since people can't decide not to be sick, it means you can pocket the cost-saving.

"You have drawn a boy, born in the Paris Basin in 1970 CE." Of all human history, it had to pick something off by 20 years and 200km.

Software engineering has been a thing for decades and you'd still be hard pressed to find two engineers agreeing on what constitutes "good code". It's not a serious discipline, we're closer to bootleggers brewing li

Why would they suffer? They showcased that they were big enough to disrupt the global economy. Why _wouldn't_ you invest in something so big and powerful? This is the same as when junkies specifically seek batches of drugs on which oth

There's a one star restaurant in my hometown. Not even expensive, it's about 60€ for a three-courses menu, so we try to go at least a few times a year. It's really about reading the room. A good waiter won't bring the ma

It replaced Figma for us. Product and design use it to build interactive mockups, sometimes directly with the (prospective) customers. Even a few thousands are pocket change if it means you can build the correct thing directly.

You paid the consulting firm for the outcome. If they sent you a bill for every piece of research they wrote down to get to the report, you bet I would want to see exactly what's inside and what I paid for.

I think it really depends on your personality. I work with people in their late thirties that are refreshed by a long weekend with very little sleep in Ibiza, and would probably die of dread at the idea of spending a week doing nothing. Mea

We just cancelled everyone's plans and rolled liteLLM out internally. We kept it for the insanely cheap tokens, but now that they've switched to the new pricing, they're just like openrouter, just with far fewer models.

My first introduction to the blog was through his Lord of the Rings Siege of Gondor serie, and I've been a Patreon supporter ever since. It's well worth the time.

AI is more like a union that controls the entire labour pool. I'm one out of a few million developers. I've got very limited bargaining power. I can't withdraw my labour because I need it to make rent and buy food. My cost ha

I'm apparently a former professional soccer player too, but I can't find my alter-ego anywhere using the classic search engines. Interestingly, the only other person with my (very french) first name and (very spanish) surname is a
