Adding another desk isn't "rethinking the desk". It's adding another desk with a slightly different purpose to the first desk. It's maximalism under the guise of insight.

Smoking related illness costs the UK more in healthcare than the tax revenue it collects. No twist needed, it's really fucking logical.

putting text in colored boxes around the page isn't really interactive or visual in the way I'd hoped, but it looks pretty.

It's not journalism though is it, it's just someone's blog where they can tell any story they want, as has been the entire history of story telling. With that out of the way the rest of your post is just flanneling.

You're learning at your standard rate of learning, you're just feeding yourself over-confidence on how much you're absorbing vs what the LLM is facilitating you rolling out.

Nothing. You'd have a terminal sat blinking waiting for input to start. Anything prompting a start is an instruction, you just don't know what internal biases will be tacked onto your instruction, no matter how basic it is.

Thats just swapping another enterprise focused concern into the mix. Your database connection latency is absolutely not a concerning part of your system.

You're using 1000x the resources to prove it than inject the issue, so you now have a denial of business attack.

And not this or any existing generation of people. We're bad a determining want vs need, being specific, genericizing our goals into a conceptual framework of existing patterns and documenting & explaining things in a way that gets

I think there's a big asymmetry between the kind of user and their environment that wants to toy with agent teams and the kind of user that would ever want to deal with the unwelcome hassle of having kafka as a dependency.

CSS doesn't suck. What sucks is that somewhere along the line we forgot that it's a visual markup tool and not a programming language, and it's been treated as such for far too long.

Yes, that's all just as it was, and in places braces were not required / interchangeable so this is more of an optional compiler choice than a real change

Probably so, but that doesn't mean their value can keep scaling without heavy diminishing returns. Softbank must assume they've taken 80%+ of the gains from this phase of NVIDIA's growth, and want to capture the next wave of

It’s natural to feel anxious as we approach the inevitable automation of all human labor This is sell-side idealist thinking and blurred view of reality. We're not approaching it, we're not even seeing metrics to suggest that an

It's just a tool. Are the people that run Makita terrible? Who knows, I just use their tools to fix cars. I use tools to build apps for businesses that pay me. There is far too much ideology based decision making in tech. Just build st

Who are this endless cohort of develops who need to maintain a 'deep understanding' of their code. I'd argue a high % of all code written globally on any given day that is not some flavour of boilerplate, while written with g

We also have to pretend that anyone has ever been any good at writing descriptive, detailed, clear and precise specs or documentation. That might be a skillset that appears in the workforce, but absolutely not in 2 years. A technical writer

Absolutely. I can't believe so many replies are struggling with the easy answer: privacy, security, "local first", "open source", "distributed", "open format" etc etc etc are developer goals proj

This looks really interesting, congrats! One thing I did notice though from looking through the examples is this: Uncaught errors automatically cause retries of tasks using your settings. Plus there are helpers for granular retrying inside

I really like it, and the FX option is a really fun addition on top of where most people get to. One ask I'd have is for FX to stay "on" and duplicate what was put down for each new cell until it's turned off again? It&#

I think what we have right now is an excellent interface for low-friction, non-specialised interaction by humans (work or personal use) with a vast array of highly specialised and highly-complex systems. What it isn't is the actual fin

It's just a function of how much code you need to write, and how much un-interrupted time you have. Editing this kind of configuration has far less cognitive load and loading time, so distractions aren't as destructive to the task

I have a related question I guess, it relates to how I can visualise the foundations of this beyond just a code implementation. Where does this come from in abstract/math? Did we not have it before, or did we just not consider it an av

And I really don't think it's aged that well. Large parts of defining what "good layout" for text is relies on a societal consensus that their taste aligns with it, and I think we've moved on.

There's no value in Amazon burning money to 'compete' when there no clear endgame. Right now the competition seems to be who can burn a a hundred billion dollars the fastest. Once a use case and platform has stabilized, they&
