Does it matter?

An example from last night. If I Google “how much is 7KwH”, I get a list of calculator websites for converting units. If I ask an LLM, it tells me “your usage is pretty low for an apartment, good job!” The latter is exactly the question I h

Can you list some of these reasons?

My impression is they're being cancelled in favor of full internal adoption of Copilot CLI, which has got much better over the past few months.

AM is critical for emergency scenarios. When Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico, all our infrastructure was completely devastated. The only way to receive news or bulletins for weeks was just one remaining AM radio station that kept broadcas

Why is Ramp even building a sheets product? That's the question zero that popped up to my head.

This is beautiful product design. I will say, I do wish there was a conversation list when looking at folders--having conversations listed on the sidebar can get a bit busy.

Zipped up tightly? This has been all over mainstream news outlets, social media, everywhere. We are commenting on a submission linked to the New York Times.

I built my own harness on Elixir/Erlang[0]. It's very nice, but I see why TypeScript is a popular choice. No serialization/JSON-RPC layer between a TS CLI and Elixir server. TS TUI libraries utilities are really nice (I rewro

No shade, I think it looks cool and will likely use it, but next time maybe disclose that you’re the founder?

This looks nice, congrats on the launch. I'm trying this at work on Monday, I suffer from this problem for tons of MCP tools that are MCP only, not CLI, and completely fill my context window. First thoughts: it seems the broader commun

Papers like these are much needed bucket of ice water. We antropomorphize these systems too much. Skimming through conclusions and results, the authors conclude that LLMs exhibit failures across many axes we'd find to be demonstrative

My small agent harness[0] does this as well. The tasks tool is designed to validate a DAG as input, whose non-blocked tasks become cheap parallel subagent spawns using Erlang/OTP. It works quite well. The only problem I’ve faced is get

This is probably the most beautiful homepage + docs combo I’ve ever seen. The copy is awesome too. It feels human. Great work.

I don't know. LLMs are great at writing code; but you have to have the right ideas to get decent output. I spend tons of time handholding LLMs--they're not a replacement for thinking. If you give them a closed-loop problem where

Seeing how things are moving, I'm expecting for compute requirements to go down over a longer time horizon, as most technologies do. I'd rather spend my time preparing for this new world now.

I feel the same way. > That includes code outside of the happy path, like error handling and input validation. But also other typing exercises like processing an entity with 10 different types, where each type must be handled separately.

Real courageous from that guy calling someone a "fat uncle" on a Twitter thread. Could've applied that same energy IRL and told him to tone it down.

Seriously, this is as easy as tapping the dude next door and telling him to tone that volume down. Negative social skills on that Twitter thread

Thanks for the link. In the interest of saving myself an hour of time uploading a video, I’ll attest that yes—that street view is as “average day on Pike” as it gets. To be clear, there are homeless who walk around the area… and Capitol Hil

I agree, Chinatown/ID took a turn for the worst unfortunately.

I’m so glad you mention “going up Pike towards Capitol Hill” because I live right on the section where Cap Hill & First Hill starts. My lived experience is that I could walk the length of Pike from Bellevue Ave towards the waterfront an

Deflecting is a fun game, but I won’t play it. I’m challenging your hyperbole here—on the other hand, you’re making assumptions about me. Explain to me how “the entire downtown area is just homeless tents”. By all means bring some proof of
