   Irony is that jane street hires from prestigious Indian schools too, for pretty obscene salaries. These salaries get hyped and celebrated over newspapers.

   Can someone elucidate how using a full blown browser is improvisation over using say markitdown / pandoc / whatever? Given that most useful coding docs sites are static (made with sphinx or mkdocs or whatever)

   The problem I see with MCP is very simple. It's using JSON as the format and that's nowhere as expressive as a programming language. Consider a python function signature list_containers(show_stopped: bool = False, name_pattern: Op

   Wasn't there a tool calling benchmark by docker guys which concluded qwen models are nearly as good as GPT? What is your experience about it? Personally I am convinced JSON is a bad format for LLMs and code orchestration in python-ish

   People are used to the `click` way, where you can define args as function parameters. It's little more verbose but it helps click is a very established library which also provides many other things needed by CLI tools. There's als

    At this point you're just flexing that you have 96GiB machine. (Average developer machines are more like 16GiB) But that's not the point. If every dependency follows same philosophy, costs (compiler time, binary size, dependency s

    > Breaking up long expressions into smaller ones If it improves compile time, that sounds like a bug in the compiler or the design of the language itself.

    I use single-stepping very rarely in practice when using a debugger, except when following through a "value of a variable or two". Yet it's more convenient than pprint.pprint() for that because structured display of values, e

    I am young grug who didn't use debuggers much until last year or so. What sold me on debugger is the things you can do with it * See values and eval expressions in calling frames. * Modify the course of execution by eval&#x27

    Why would I? The only argument is that it improves the style of writing. But I am in an ESL environment and no one cares about that. Even otherwise why would anyone want to read a decompressed version instead of the "prompt" itsel

    Because why do you anti-compress your thoughts using LLM at all? It makes things harder to read.

    Apart from obvious non-reproducibility, the other problem is lack of navigable structure. I can't command+click or "show usages" or "show definition" any more.

    > When debugging error handling code, being able to quickly add a println or have a dedicated line or source location for setting a breakpoint in a debugger is helpful. On the flip side, you can't have exception breakpoints in Go.

    Thanks for writing the LLM CLI. It's been a very useful tool to test out and prototype using various LLM features like multimodal, schema output and now tools as well! I specifically like that I can just write a python function with ty
