Yep, it's mostly garbage, I feel like I woke up with hangover honestly.

No AI writing in the book so far (but that does not mean it won't be garbage anyway lol)

I don’t know about the Linux kernel, but I’ll be surprised if don’t have some “fully vibe coded OS” for Christmas (which would be cool to see)

For db just give it credentials of a readonly user, for instructions you can do this. You can give setup a list of approved tools and bash commands https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/claude-code-best-pract...

I know it sounds a lot like 2025, but it's actually to create a dataset of spells for training my wizarding AI :P

(Original comment was not a joke btw, it's part of another thing I will publish eventually)

A system-agnostic language for magic spells with a compiler capable of producing the magic wand movements, incantation, hand signs or magic circle required to perform the spell

Py = 3.14 :')

/compact does most of that, for me at least

/compact we will now work on x, discard y, keep z

WAN Show is going to be wild this week

My most productive day (so far)... How AI is changing workflows of my pet projects

Matchbook.com is a good example of something with a lot of numbers, the apps are especially good (you might need international dns depending on your region)

I have no idea why they bothered releasing it, but, as we saw with the other models, they will eventually release a 4.5-turbo (or a 4.5o) of sorts that is in line with current pricing

Nothing free that I know of, get Adobe Firefly

C++

I’ve being doing mostly mobile apps for the last 10 years, tried Rust for fun for a couple of months, recently tried C++ and I’m having the time of my life.

Btw, not sarcasm, now looking into C++ jobs

My head is blowing up rn trying to understand if they are real pictures

100 million usd for an original series/game show “Beast Games”.

Will try it out, thanks!

This completely sells it

This is a good channel

I was ready with "FloridaCorp", turns out it's California, RIP my joke

Not necessarily the same, but you can share a readonly link to conversations with ChatGPT, for example:

Started with the idea of generating comics with GPT4 and Midjourney, ended up with an animated show! The results are both surprisingly good and very, very cringe.

In this post I explain the basic concept, thoughts?

Before you say it: The idea is not to put together an automated content farm, I'd like for this to be a tool I can use to develop more consistent stories in the future.

Dead, but we're heading into new a new paradigm of hardware accelerators (encoders, decoders, AI-optimized chips, multi-die GPUs, ...) and new packaging systems (M1 SoC's, GPU Chiplets, ...), all powered by what was previously the big bottleneck, interconnection within these components (AMD's Infinity Fabric, Apple's UltraFusion, ...)

I don't get it.

People have been wondering when this would happen since the very first iPad Pro, so lots of people will be happy now...

Even assuming all the required horse power is there, I still don't get it...

Maybe I'm getting old.

Find something wacky and fun project! I did this: https://github.com/curzel-it/pet-therapy Desktop pets for macOS, and having lots of fun.

Btw, I'm looking into porting it to Windows and Linux, if anyone is interested... :P

Layoff was probably 50% accounting for another chunk of people leaving soon after, so that staff reduction will be 60-70% in total.

Also, I don’t think the majority of people even work on core products.. for example, did you know Twitter implemented their own OnlyFans competitor? It never launched afaik

Step 1 is to trim as much as possible and consolidate core functionality…

Step 2 is back to profitability.

I understand that, let’s see if it works

Well, we didn't get this one, but at least McHale was free to work on Community!

What is your true objective? What will you be evaluated on?

Focus and think of any other improvement you could do.

It sounds like management doesn’t think there is an actual problem to solve, so I wouldn’t necessarily pick refactoring or rewrite as the hill to die on.

If you go the refactoring route, i have little advice:

0. Clean up the database, it will immediately impact performance and make management happy

1. Find vertical (feature-wise) or horizontal (layer-wise) architectural boundaries and split the code base into module, separated libraries. This will be an ongoing process for a long while. Do it by touching as little code as possible - this is pure scaffolding, actual refactoring comes later.

2. Stick with PHP, at least until results from #1 aren’t good enough.

3. Use testing as a tool to pressure management, it works a surprisingly large number of times

4. Rewrite one feature/page at a time, once results from #1 indicate a good candidate. It might be a good idea to introduce a new language at this point, or even some form of micro services (if it makes sense).

Agree… only issue might be managers and supervisors coming from manufacturing in Asia, they will have to re-learn how to treat workers, but I am hopeful
