I've been cleaning up AI generated system/software design and architecture docs for an agentically engineered application, to translate that dense AI-speak into a clear human-readable form, cross checking it all against the actual

This just might save me. Claude has been driving me nuts with incomprehensible summaries after a long task, where it's actually really important to understand what was done (and what wasn't). But I'd like that skill to only b

Predictions are only one part of research. It's what theorists feed experimentalists with. Confirmation of predictions is by and large a very physical endeavour. Labs are not going away. I do feel that it's exciting to see what AI

In many domains, scientific research is physical. Are they going to deprecate labs and sort of scale that out into a pure compute problem? They are occupying a term in their headline messaging that is much broader than they can actually cov

>a “good” workday, engineers spent 18 percent of their time “coding” (not including bug fixing, testing, etc.) I must be a crap developer, because I probably spend twice as much time bugfixing and testing than "coding". (Both o

Better would have been to offer a button to flag something that does NOT seem like AI slop on LinkedIn.

Has anyone noticed a change in "attitude" when coding with Opus 5 vs 4.8? claude has this maddening principle of wanting to minimize the "blast radius", do the least amount of coding changes to get something done, happy

I think the article is really good, until it starts to offer guidance and making suggestions for the future. I can't pin it down precisely, but my feeling is that it doesn't fully recognize the fundamental shift taking place. In a

So this isn't the way techies in Silicon Valley talk?? And here I was using my claude dialogues as a way to refine my speak and better connect with the heartland of innovation. :-P

Wouldn't this be something a virus scanner would detect and quarantine? Not an active Windows user, but I can't imagine any sane person working on Windows OS without malware protection.

For someone like me who's never done any hands-on work in ML, the blog is really hard to understand. Whoosh, over my head. But, I think the underlying problem is that we don't understand how this sh*t works. So, it's just an

I thought the same thing. But, should we be surprised about what people believe in these days? I think that the issue is in part due to the variables. Plotting the mean request time is less intuitive than plotting throughput. If you plot th

If the producers see a long term demand for memory they will meet the challenge and produce enough to bring prices down. Economics will invariably alleviate the memory crunch. It just takes long and requires a huge upfront CapEx. They have

The bike/motorbike/car analogy is good. In each you can find enjoyment that suits your character. I have been drawn to coding from the first day I took a course at college learning Pascal and assembly on an IBM PC. Hell I even wro

For me personally, holding a dialogue with several agentic dev streams in parallel keeps me very much on my toes mentally. It's quite exhausting, and certainly not letting my brain atrophy. I'm probably losing some coding skills,

That would be the good case. But what if the cell doesn't know that, and it's holding, for example, a stale account number?

Nobody uses Amex for payments, so the system isn't ever under high load. Just kidding! I find the idea quite good, and have to assume that the amount of payment fails they experience due to partitions/outages isn't very high

Unfortunately, I get car sick just sitting in the back. No need to look at a phone. So I guess I'll have to wait until Apple Glasses to come out.

The dilemma I am facing is cost. Consumer-grade subscriptions of the frontier models give you superb capabilities per dollar, them being heavily subsidized. But if you're working in an enterprise setting, that won't work. You need

For what it's worth, I prompted GPT-5 Pro to produce a npm supply chain best practices guide, to see what it comes up with. I've not read it yet. https://gist.github.com/pschleger/c1c36fbde003bea5eee7ce4291...

As a layman, it helps me to understand the importance of language as a vehicle of intelligence by realizing that without language, your thoughts are just emotions. And therefore I always thought that the more you master a language the bette
