Ohh, horizontal wheels. They’re about as good as I expected, models have pretty bad spatial awareness. I would expect Fable to be a bit better than old models, though.

Exactly! Proper wet heat. /s

It is dry heat, if you look at it from certain point of view. I once experienced smth like 27-28°C with fog, 100% humidity. Was almost as bad as 40°C with low humidity. And if it would be 42°C/107°F with fog and 100% humidity, lots of

It triggered for me on a completely pedestrian game design prompt a couple of days ago. I’ve sent feedback and continued with Opus, but that was really unexpected

I remember similar kind of visualization from a decade ago, called paperscape. Looked cool, worked on clustering using citations and references. Never got any idea on any use case that would be covered by such visualizations, apart from loo

This supports my feelings of what works best when working with the models. Especially together with the directional bias in recall that’s mentioned here in the comments. First, the model attention is actually limited, so less rules is usual

Some problems are very hard to solve with stupid code. This can easily be the case (computational geometry)

I am having a hard time picturing what could be the problem that you were solving. Redis, Cassandra, RabbitMQ and Clickhouse. RabbitMQ looks like a black sheep in this lineup.

Yeah, probably different halves of the book. I've read it a few years ago, and it looks like I've just ignored/forgot all that "bending reality" stuff. It's not my cup of tea, so I remembered only the good part

Opus 4.5-4.7 was pretty bad at it, 4.8 was a bit better, and I have not tried Fable much. So basically you have a good enough code that’s “intuitive” for a model, screenshots, and that’s it?

I find all current LLMs to have pretty poor spatial awareness. It is becoming better, but still very poor. How are you dealing with that? Got any special tricks, any advice?

Touching shoulders and shaking hands palm-down is “persuasion” bullshit. Can’t say anything about other books, but Never Split the Difference is about hearing and understanding other peoples’s wants and opinions. Not this pickup-artist-like

Please read the actual book, it’s kind of the opposite from manipulation. You can read more detailed answers in the near branch of comments.

I’ve genuinely read only Never Split the Difference from your list, and it’s kind of the opposite from manipulation. The book teaches how to actually hear people even in the very emotionally charged situations, how to properly ask them ques

“Never Split the Difference”, which is a book about how to successfully communicate with terrorists. Very suitable for talking with kids! I’ve even read aloud a few chapters to my kids, because it’s very suitable for communication with pare

The post matches my experience as well, I am asking a question like “does A work like this and that”, and Claude responds with “you’re conflating A and B! Only A does this and that, and B does that other thing!” Well, I am perfectly aware o

Ah, okay, my bad. Got too focused on the name. Googled the dates, Satya became CEO in 2014 and Sundar became CEO in 2015, so it’s actually not that different, especially when we look at the events more than a decade later.

by murkt 3mo ago
Sundar Pichai does not work in Microsoft, though. A bit weird to anchor the MS timeline on his position. When he became the CEO, actually? I don’t remember the year even approximately

Can this be a Siri-like core? Set me a timer, tell me what’s the weather, etc. Here is transcribed text and available list of tools for the model to call, and voice the output.

The last one is about involving less people. You don't have to read it as "shut up and keep your thoughts for yourself". I read it more like "Do we really need to have six people working on this feature/present in t

by murkt 4mo ago
You can make the feature with one colleague, or you can call in five more people to weigh in and do their parts of the work. If you involve five more, the result could be better in theory, but it will certainly take MUCH more time because o

What I meant is that only sometimes I am faster than Claude with debugging. When it's a standalone problem, a report in Sentry, and I just know immediately where I need to go to fix it. Then it's faster to do myself, than tellin

Sometimes debuggind is faster indeed, and making small very focused changes too. But during feature development? Not possible. And I consider myself a very fast developer

A fee years ago, I woke up in the middle of the night with a very cool sounding riff playing in my head for a song that I was thinking about at that time. I am not a musician and that would be my first, if I would recruit enough help. I mad

Frankly, that usually comes from orgs that deal with the real world. 50k generic requests per day is nothing. 50k orders per day for a small e-commerce company can be pretty overwhelming. It’s becoming laughable when people use it to boast
