In my experience, when that happens it's most likely because you drew the wrong boundaries. Iterating on the boundaries also becomes quite cheap when developing this way though, you should never expect to get them right the first time

For my side project where uptime doesn't really matter but the codebase is quite huge (gamedev of a multiplayer game with Bevy, so both server code, game code, content build pipeline, as well as a TON of editor and authoring code, prob

That honestly sounds like it's more about either the quality of the codebase, or the driver.

I understand that to be the "emergent abilities" which are spoken about. There are correlations in the dataset that are strong enough for it to seem to have an understanding which wasn't obvious it would have from simply &quo

>The coding agents got good in November. Maybe irrelevant to your point, but I'd argue they were really good already in May if one used the right workflow (planning etc.). They've become better, but they're not saving me s

Agreed, async function coloring makes for better structured code because it incentivizes keeping IO code near the edges while having a synchronous core.

I doubt it, the difference between someone slightly inefficient and someone extremely efficient isn't big enough to matter compared to how much they cost in salary.

That doesn't make it not true though. Markdown generally supports HTML (though oftentimes only a subset), and is typically styled using CSS. Using a web view makes complete sense to me.

I haven't made a ESP32 design, but I recently learnt KiCad and PCB design enough to do a RP235x board with a non-reference design choice (1.8v VDDIO). I only used the official hardware guide + LLMs for questions, and had it work on the

But dependencies are part of a website? It literally says "Still here when the internet isn't." - but I can't go on there without an internet connection?

I use Claude for work and Codex for private use due to already having a Plus subscription. I can't say that I have noticed that 5.3-Codex is much better, but it's definitely on par with Opus 4.6, and its limits for $25/months

Bandwidth doesn't tell us about how many clock cycles it's waiting for the data though (latency), does it? For example with paging, I don't think those bandwidths make much difference and it's instead the latency which m

The interesting part is mostly comparing the nordic countries against each other. Sweden seemed to be doing much much worse early on due to the chosen strategy, but that no longer seems to be the case.

I won't be cancelling now as I seem to be averaging a bit more than 1000, meaning pricing will stay about the same since I should get the early adopter subscription. However, the "average amount of searches" they're stat

This is as accurate in Europe, and much of it has been for the last 15 years at the very least.

So, people should stop being humans? Are you also offended when you hear that the clothes you wear give off an impression?

I'm really surprised at how defensive some people in this thread are getting regarding this.

Not everyone follows the "netiquette" though. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Most of these rules rang very true to me at least. For example, capitalizing letters in _informal_ chats does give off a formal tone. This

So I posted this without finishing (probably managed to fat finger it somehow). I meant to say that I thought 2400 meant quite a bit more than 99.9%.

"People" on the planet? If that's accurate it's not super impressive, considering that probably 95-99% (or more) of people don't take chess very seriously. I used to be the top 99-99.5% of Counter-Strike players (_v

I don't get what the point of that quiz is. All of the example countries in it instituted their mask mandates between the first and second wave. None of them did not?

He's doesn't seem very credible though. For example, there's a lot of very obvious reasons which could help explain this[1]. 1: https://twitter.com/ianmSC/status/1481042778293358593

Is it really abusive if it's up to you to choose "Work at company X, make ~10% more but you have to be on-call for 1 week every 8 weeks" vs. "Work at company Y, make ~10% less, but never be on-call"? Honestly, I&#x2

Most people use a laptop (or even tablet) for their everyday needs nowadays, and they likely don't want a heavy and hot gaming laptop for that.

No, that's true, but it's definitely possible. I know of plenty of engineering students in my home country who came here from China (and India) to do their masters, and ended up staying for work. But yeah, it definitely requires c
