Agreed. Reading the rest of these comments are makes me feel crazy / like I’m missing something. It doesn’t sound like the interviewer was making the candidate divulge traumatic information - but rather assessing how…
Very cool! Could you support sorting of some kind? Would love to at least view most recent first.
This is really awesome! Dream home project for me as well, but can't justify the cost of large e-ink displays so far (was shocked at the nearly ~$2k sticker price of that Boox Mira Pro!)
Which models perform anywhere close to Opus 4.5? In my experience none of the local models are even in the same ballpark.
I don't think the point about 401k stagnation is true. At most fee structures and optionality of funds change. How did that cost you 500k exactly?
Why? How do you draw the line between people who deserve to be "surveilled" (if you can even call it that in this case...) vs. people who don't? You are entitled to your opinion of course but it just seems extremely…
Great read, thanks! Could you dive a little deeper into example 2 & pre-registration? Conceptually I understand how the probability of false positives increases with the number of variants. But how does a simple act…
There's no confusion about the type of edge. Just pointing out that if you are selling an edge rather than trading it yourself, you're either grifting or naive.
This doesn't make as much sense as you think it does. If you could predictably trade a flip from bearish to bullish (for example, of course there are other trend-based signals), you would not share that signal because…
It read to me as a (very) small discount for choosing to be billed annually vs. monthly.
You're correct about valuation, but the parent post was meant to address "how much liquid dollars should you expect to receive vs. 409a." You are likely to receive less in most cases (read: unless there are wildly…
Definitely agree with you that it's a problem that will be hard to generalize a solution for, and that the eventual solution is likely not embeddings (at least not alone).
Very interested to see what the next steps are to evolve the "retrieval" model - I strongly believe that this is where we'll see the next stepwise improvement in coding models. Just thinking about how a human engineer…
Many SaaS products are tools. I'm sure when tractors were first invented, people felt that they didn't "control" it compared to directly holding shovels and manually doing the same work. Not to say that LLMs are at the…
> LLMs are a codification of internet and written content Only true for pre-trained foundational models without any domain-specific augmentations. A good AI tool in this space would be fine-tuned or have other…
This reaction is primarily an emotional one. Why is a human rejecting a claim better than an AI rejecting a claim? Presumably the AI will one day -- if not today -- be more accurate in following decisioning logic than…
Great article, really hits a little too close to home. Definitely gives me the little extra boost in the form of a reminder that acting is always better than not acting.
Could you share some specific tactics/metrics you've defined to measure things like roadmap churn or unexpected feature demands? This problem definitely resonates with me, and I have some very primitive ideas of…
Why do you believe that? If the goal were to measure your individual programming skills in a vacuum, then your recommendation makes sense. However, software engineering in a larger organization has a different goal --…
Look for a setting named "Preserve logs" to prevent the default behavior of clearing console/network log.
Cool, you dislike Facebook, but does that add value to the discussion about this project?
How so? Classes are extremely verbose IMO, which is the last thing I'd want in a white board interview.
It’s hard to judge out of context. IMO None meaning “disable limiting” should be a docstring/comment at the method level, describing what its return values mean, not inline next to this code.
I think you should be using `replace` more judiciously. IMO its primary use is redirecting from some kind of invalid state/URL, i.e. when the user does not want to ever go back. For all valid states/URLs, users expect…
in a word, liability.
