I don't like the term "AI psychosis" because I think it's the incorrect way to describe what's happening here. I think "cognitive surrender" is a much better term. Because it's not that people are get

The problem here is that the paradigm is AI-assisted development, but a LOT of people are treating it as "AI-independent" development instead, a.k.a "just send it to the agent and blindly trust whatever comes out of it",

You can do it, iirc they even stress doing so in the docs for GitHub Pages if you don't want your domain to be stolen

Realizing? Will be very happy if that is the case, but in my view all big company execs are still balls deep into the notion that you will be able to just ask it for the facebook clone and everything sucks as a result

This extension is for "pure" Swift development, not iOS development. I doubt the latter will ever officially happen. It's possible to make it work for iOS at an unofficial capacity though by hooking into the extension's

This is a very welcome improvement but I should note the title is a bit clickbaity: using Swift on e.g. Cursor was always possible, it's just that after Microsoft banned forks from accessing the official VSCode marketplace last year yo

I had seen noclip's documentary about de_dust2 featuring him before but didn't piece the name together. Very happy to find that he has a blog!

Problems that require deep knowledge of multiple repositories, e.g. when trying to debug issues involving dependencies. The models get confused very fast even with all code available locally, due to the size of the problem. But in my experi

Oh yeah I forgot to mention that, it was the first option I considered but getting it shipped to Sweden was super expensive. So it didn't make sense considering I just wanted the camera dump feature. Buying the pcb and port on the othe

When the AI companies run out of money, I predict tokens will stop being dirt cheap and such setups will become extremely expensive (even for regular software engineering to some extent). Then it's become clear how over-engineered most

While true, my personal fear is that the higher-ups will overlook this fact and just assume that AI can do everything because of some cherry-pick simple examples, leading to one of those situations where a bunch of people get fired for no r

I think the "well defined prompt" is precisely what the person you responded to is alluring to. They are saying they don't get worried because AI doesn't get the job done without someone behind it that knows exactly what

This gave me an idea. You should set it up to say "We must construct additional pylons" if it requires MCP permissions specifically

I made an account there to use my Home Assistant as a media server and it's already the second time they reported that they messed up something. I heard you can install VLC on the Apple TV and stream through that, so I'll definite

I think Swift Concurrency is a great idea that unfortunately wasn't executed very well. The motivation behind it is that concurrency is difficult to understand and tricky to get right, but Swift Concurrency is at times even more diffic

The most hilarious yet infuriating thing for me is when you point out a mistake, get a "You're absolutely right!" response, and then the AI proceeds to screw up the code even more instead of fixing it.

You can have aliases on Gmail if you use Google Workspace (for custom domains), but there's a limit and no support for wildcards. Wish they had those, because then it's very easy to find out who sold your data

Aren't credit cards nowadays basically physical private keys? IIRC transactions are one-time payloads signed specifically for that operations, so intercepting that won't help you if I'm not mistaken about how cards work nowad

I think you are mixing some different concepts here. It's not that this is a layer on top of Xcode/xcodebuild, it's just that Apple today happens to package everything iOS/Swift-related together with Xcode releases. So e

Agree on Paul Hudson being great, but not so much on the guiding around the pitfalls. One big issue with the Swift community in general in my opinion is that a lot of the community content is incredibly shallow. Most of them are fine with &
