It's the same reason I was nervous moving our company domain to a .ai TLD; your entire presence, identity and trust is now beholden to the whims and political winds of a Caribbean island smaller than Topeka.

Is this not what programming alongside or with an AI agent is these days? Brainstorming, reviewing, debugging. The only difference is there's no second human building a working knowledge of the code being written.

Indeed. I was mainly responding to the comment about waiting for "independent seasoned mathematicians to verify", whereas in this case it is easy enough to convince oneself of the counterexample's correctness.

This is essentially what Shopify did with River ( https://shopify.engineering/under-the-river ), and we built out something similar at our company. I'm sure the labs are working on this sort of thing - Managed Agents are

Because I was curious about this: the use of "categorically" in the phrase "categorically false" doesn't directly relate to the concept of "categories" as groups or classes of things. Turns out it's a

Congrats to the black team on this release, and thank you scrollaway for your fork. We are in a similar position where we are (for various reasons) stuck on using tabs for an existing project. Luckily it seems like there might be some movem

There's definitely a segment of people for which GSuite access and cloud storage of notes is a non-starter, but in many cases those can be mitigated even when it comes to early adopters in larger enterprise companies (eg SOC-2 complian

You're right that one of the biggest reasons to switch is that everyone else has switched (which is a bit sad to me since I think Coffeescript had some good features to offer), and community support + developer tooling are always impor

I really respect companies that have well-written engineering blogs that go in-depth into their technical problems - Figma comes to mind here, for example. For a small team/company, what are some good tips or resources on how to start

There's always more than one way to do things, and it's good to be aware of the trade-offs that different solutions provide. I've worked with systems like you describe in the past, and in my experience you always end up needi

We've been running our own cluster on EC2 nodes built with kops and it's worked well so far. As for logging, which part of ELK is heavy? You can use the cloud operator to run it from within your cluster ( https://www.ela

I would highly recommend getting to know https://github.com/ovalhub/pyicu , which in addition to counting grapheme clusters with BreakIterator can also do things like normalisation, transliteration, and anything else yo

Seems really interesting after a quick read-through. Specs that allow range-based validation look useful, and the structural declarations also feel like they'll help reduce a lot of boilerplate and repetition. I wonder how this compare

Funny, because I think the Wolfram language (also as a long-time user) is actually really well-designed and consistent, and has stood the test of time. Even ignoring the standard library, it has a really expressive syntax for pattern matchi

Agreed on avoiding yaml templating at all costs, but I've also found that you don't normally need a full programming language for these types of config files - if you do find yourself reaching for those tools you might be better s

I would agree with that. If you take a look at the exhibition match replay, there's some cases where it makes objectively suboptimal decisions. We couldn't see this during the live stream, but the double immortal warp prism caused
