I personally love coding! unfortunately for me the agents are much faster at it and often more correct, especially after iteration. Guiding AI is more efficient currently.

Totally anecdotal, but recently my wife had to go to urgent care for something wrong with her ankle- They send a 4-5 page sheet of arcane terms and diagnoses to her care app (relayed to me via text) and I just slammed…
The problem there is why they have such tight bottlenecks periodically- Why not just have a traditional cellar?
They are an improvement over most languages, but the are _not_ better than sum types for the reasons listed above. Way less flexible and forces a lot more verbosity when compared to more functional languages. Hes…
There is a good argument for never using debuggers except for core development- Once finished your logs/metrics/events should be good enough to understand what is happening in an application. If debugging your…
> Our hope is that these extensions can over time be contributed to upstream OCaml. Yeah, its more just extensions to support their use cases at scale. Think of it more as bleeding edge ocmal, once they work out…
I thought that too (but more New York Christmas Eve movie impressions) until I saw steam coming from manholes in Denver. Blew my mind that it was a real thing haha. In addition to the heating/cooling uses, the mint in…
nope you have the article right. "if you copy an existing model, you can get a pretty comparable model!" Really, [what the underlying paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.19393) shows is how much you can improve existing…
Surprisingly I find it does! The bulk of the time shouldn't be spent typing I agree, but often once I've mapped out what I want to do I need to type a lot. Improving my typing helped my "flow" as I made less mistakes…
I was homeschooled from 2nd - 8th grade. My elementary school was trying to put my brother on adderall and my class had sorted me into the "blue" group of readers (colors of the rainbow for reading ability). I…
Those are sources, and while curiosity is great most kids are focused on specific things not everything. Kids need direction and somebody them to focus on things they dont want to learn- like a kid who loves animals…
> I don’t think I understand a subject unless I can teach it, explain it and argue both sides about why you should and shouldn’t use it. this is 100% why I write "courses" alongside my notes when learning something-…
One thing this article does is assume extreme functional mindset, I dont even think OOP enters into the authors mind- With that context, I think that statement isn't about object constructors but type constructors.
Man, I get that python is easy to write but maintaining deployed python code is some of the worst experiences in modern software devlopment. Less Code != less buggy or more stable code, it just means more implicit code.…
AND holy shit I have to install another venv to run special-snowflake-3 script I will literally lose it. I literally have a folder of all the venvs I need to run one-off shit people pass me. I get the lack of wanting to…
The Fed will always fix it as _thats what the fed does_. Debt, spending, interest payments are all treasury- The stability of the system is the fed. They often work together but I'm willing to bet the fed is very…
Its the moderating effect of the Mediterranean! Its wild to see the temperature differences of Wisconsin, Montana, Dakota(s) compared to France & Spain. All that water helps insulate Europe even those its at a northern…
Man, unless its dramatically improved in the last 5 years Sydney and Melbourne were around the same level as hell as LAX/SFO are. Sydney was particularly bad the 3 times I had to move through it haha. My average LAX…
Seriously, that line strikes fear into my heart and I only handle rest APIs not billion dollar airplanes with actual people in them.
I think the growth of Discord partially explains it- They needed a _lot_ more SRE/Scale engineers, which causes growth in HR/Management layers. They also added a bunch of monetization stuff (discord nitro) and attempted…
nope, that's essentially the problem. Snap is curated and controlled by Canonical and they are forcing the issue. The issues that both share are slow starts, larger package sizes, lack of safe ways to interact with the…
I think its kinda great its on the front page, I only work in backend so this looks quite appealing like ALL tech demos do. Love to see it pulled apart in comments with explanations I understand haha
"championing" it? probably not, but I'm a huge fan of the goal. Flatpack/Snap both try to take an application and isolate it from the system. Its like docker but for userspace application rather than services. Package…
lmao right? My new hires spent the first week in corporate/domain training, then a few days getting situated, setup and stuff. Probably 2 weeks before I "expect" a PR but even then the first few tasks are a gentle…
