I drive a "Victory Red" 2005 Chevy Silverado. I always thought it was a "safer" color for a vehicle. I have always assumed that, being in a larger vehicle that is bright red, people would be more likely to spot the…
This is why I feel prompt injection is going to continue to be an issue. Fantastic that “Hi we are Cloudflare, give us your personal data” works. Either we stunt the models to the point where they are not useful, or we…
“Cloudflare, love you guys, but this needs to stop” I’m not sure I get the pushback on the robots file. Shouldn’t the robot prevention be ON by default?
Well - I think that’s a natural assumption but I’d say it’s probably not true. I’ve talked to who are fully enveloped in the AI buzz. Ask it everything. Claude can plan your day, strategize your roadmap, make your pitch…
I had a VP of engineering that loved to use “abstracty” engineering terms like Claude uses. Perhaps he was operating one level above what everyone else was doing. Loved to use fancy words, speak at a “conceptual” level.…
Recently read some LLM generated output that mentioned the “center of gravity” within a codebase. Also have read the term “seam” dozens of times by now, when previously I saw it maybe once or twice over years. Very…
Your most expensive users consuming $1,000 dollars a month doesn't matter in the budget? That seems like FOMO activity or something, I feel like even big teams require proof of ROI for an investment like that (1M). BTW,…
FWIW I purchased one at the beginning of this year, secondhand, for about $250. It's been fantastic for me. I used to keep physical notebooks - but I was just taking small notes or keeping a running list (I still do…
These are probably mostly the enterprise customers - they may use the same amount of tokens as you do, but they have to pay the API price. From my experience the API is significantly more costly. We had one user ask for…
I agree with this sentiment. Many folks have touted the "calculator" similarities as an argument, saying it's more of an efficiency gain / productivity enhancer. To me, LLMs are far more involved than this. Now,…
I understand they put "normal" person in quotes, probably to reference the HN crowd or other computer enthusiasts - but it is very funny to think of my Uncle Rick (No smartphone, no computer knowledge), a "normal"…
I saw a team build some payment software a while ago that had a similar, if not exact, vulnerability. If someone had enough time / effort to figure out a not-super-unique ID (Something like 2456733), they could acccess…
I agree with a lot of this. Sometimes it is easier to scan a code, zoom until the text is at the desired level, and scroll around the menu rather than opening a large leather book with tiny writing in a dimly lit…
I think a lot of developers probably FEEL like they are in super mode, but in reality they're just letting Claude drive the boat and they get to wear the captain's hat. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe AI Natives will be faster…
I sometimes end up at or near this conclusion when considering the future. Consider some software that was written by AI purely using markdown files. The spec was sufficient enough to classify all of the business logic,…
I bought an M4 Air about a year ago for under 1000$, it beat out my 2019 Intel MBP by quite a lot. I fully expect the air to last me at least another 6 years or so for my use case. The thing is a beast. Compare this to…
I think I’m on this side. I find it exceedingly unlikely that we just start producing “perfect” software all the time for everything, and at the same time start generating an order of magnitude MORE software.
When people finally offload 100% of their brain and forget how to use their creative reasoning abilities my guess is we’ll just all use Tailwind defaults across the board. No need to try new things, nobody will…
Man - what a ride this last year and a half has been. I feel for the juniors or newer developers, who really haven't had time to get into the seat. I don't see a great place to really "settle" into right now, as the…
Both companies offer "MAX" or "PRO" plans - and the best models were available to those customers. This new wave of "It's too dangerous for the public" is a new initiative from both companies. I agree with your overall…
To me, they're selling the "power" of their product by mentioning the danger. "It's TOO powerful to even release yet!" Whether or not that level of power exists, that is definitely how they're pitching it.
If a model can take a series of increasingly complex instructions and satisfy the requirements without human intervention, we can pretty easily decide how well overall the model does. And, judging better models just…
Where do you think that white collar workers will go in this maximalist AI disruption premise? My guess is directly to the skilled trades + healthcare. Probably opting for the highest paid positions first and working…
It's been difficult to do, but I have recently picked up the habit of scrolling directly past the AI overview. It's not what I wanted, so it's useless to me (regardless of whether or not it's correct). I wanted search…
Cmon - cursor has been out for like 3.5 years at this point. AI was still in its infancy but it was definitely able to complete tasks, albeit smaller ones. Not disputing the overall trajectory, yeah it’s gotten better.…
