Houthis are very resourceful

Oh yes! I forgot about that. Yes, you can see this in benchmarks about hy3 preview and hy3 release still today because they measured them separately - it was significant.

I used Hy3 quite a bit for the type of tasks it was suited for. Excited about this. My one concern over Hy3 was speed. In theory, it could be served much faster as a smaller model but it was relatively slow everywhere I could get it (includ

Definitely curious to get the perspective on this topic from some of Jeffrey Epstein's other friends as well.

Yes, 37Signals DHH have an amazing gift for taking something that is old and not interesting and getting a lot of attention for making it seem new and innovative. That is a gift!

Look - I'm am the opposite of DHH fan -- that said -- they could fix all these bugs/security issues that same way they created them. It makes sense to some extent to create a product that emphasized what is different about it from

I hate to day this, but most coding work isn't hard at all - for a human or AI. There are a lot of important skills around coding, but for most people, much of the time, they are not doing any coding that is particularly challenging, d

I wouldn't say everywhere. Who else is trying to cover up genocide, ethic cleansing, and apartheid?

Definitely not relevant. But is it even news? I'm sure some of them farted - who cares?

The feeling of "leadership" is probably a hallucination unless your actions are being followed by other humans. Generally speaking, leadership is quite unlike issueing others that others follow unquestionably.

Let's see what it is. They said "significantly" not "tremendously". Doubling the price would be significant, still, it would be very affordable. Let's see!

Meta never wants to be left out.

It seems like one day, Google or Meta might produce a coding model worth discussing. That day is not today.

It really depends on how you define "complete". It's possible the answer in "not large at all" if we're looking for high-quality, reliable, user-friendly software that works near perfectly after being written,

Agree. Harness can not be a moat. There are many open harnesses and they are at least on par with the providers ones. It looks like Anthropic/OpenAI's approach to vendor lock-in is not so much the inference or the harness it is fu

People tend to overlook the main benefit of Tailwind: components and pages become self-contained. As such, changing them doesn't cause unintended side-effects to other pages and all or parts of a component can be dropped into another p

These risks are significantly overstated.

I generate a lot of code, a lot of PRs, a lot of issues and git/Github are fine for me. As a software engineer, I face many challenging issues but git is not one of them.

Well, except for the part where the religion forbids it.

I guess they have to make some statement about this, but we don't have to care. This is like the zoo making a statement about the employment of clowns. Clowns a a circus thing, nobody asked the zoo's opinion.

Did you ask them if they wanted to talk to each other? I'd like to see the user research in this.

Yes, the way you are gathering data is very inaccurate. For example, a certain county has bombed several churches in the past few years - and that appears not to register at all.

I'm surprised that Nemotron gets mentioned at all. In my experiments with it for coding tasks it performed extremely poorly, essentially unusable.

Yes, please - delete my health data. I want my health data - I didn't want Samsung or anyone else to have it unless I provide it. And even then, you can't keep it - you can look at it. It's mine.

I do all my development as a longish running pipeline that mimics how I used to write software. There is a high-level plan, it gets decomposed into steps that get performed sequentially. If during a step something occurs that challenges the

We are all people. This ally-of-the-west framing is propaganda. Who has harmed me more: this US or China? Who do I have more in common with: a tech worker in China or a US government official? (I'm based in US - I use the best tech for

I'm with the herd on this one: unless you're looking for a sort of "retro" feel, most designers are not reaching for Material Design.
