my idea of de-brainrot is by going to destinations where everything is new and experiencing everything there physically & mentally. either going to a new city or drive to a new place. i'm not sure if it's anecdotal but there&#

with agent loops, the cost of exposing bugs should be cheap now. every pen tester should be using agent loops and on the flip side, an agent could easily see this issue once filed and a fix immediately done. it's incredible how cheap c

this is exactly my setup! the ipad pro 11 m5 cellular is such an amazing device especially with the 5G. only downside is obv the iPadOS, it's still very limiting and shortcuts and power tools (like easily prefilling passwords) are non-

i just did an AI hackathon and 90% of the submissions were written in TypeScript and Next.js which is mostly due to the training data. AI is skewed to use these tools by default vs the best for the job.

I don't think random blogs should be ruled out. Just because a blog is random doesn't mean its untrue.

i've been thinking about this as well. but having built a startup, i've learned that users don't care as long as they are given the value and most convenience. they don't really care much at security as much as we do. ju

my takeaway from this is that it should now be MANDATORY to have an LLM do a scan on the entire codebase prior to release or artifact creation. do NOT use third party plugins for this. it's so easy to create your own github action to d

one thing it did massively for me was save me time from questions like should i go with X or Y option questions. before i used to just think longer about tradeoffs but with AI it became a lot faster. no more procrastination due to decision

> Current AI image models can't understand grid-based pixel art. sounds like a good use case to fix this problem from the model layer. an image gen model that is trained to make pixel perfect art.

i like how claude code currently does it. it asks permission for every command to be ran before doing so. now having a local model with this behavior will certainly mitigate this behavior. imagine before the AI hits the webhook.site it asks

a concern i have is that it's only a matter of time before a similar attack is done to electron based apps (which also have packages installed using npm). probably worse because it's installed in your computer and can potentially

Came here to say this. What makes a great general purpose language is not only in the programming part but also in transportability. I think Go takes the cake here. If only Elixir apps could be compiled and transported as a binary to simila

Such a great quote. Mostly true if viewed especially from a business standpoint. I for one also see code as creative expression, a form of art. I like coding because I can express a solution in a way that is elegant and nice to read for mys

Must be my ignorance but everytime I see explainers for LLMs similar to the post, it’s hard to believe that AGI is upon us. It just doesn’t feel that “intelligent” but again might just be my ignorance.
