Free the Icons 23 days ago

Ever since the android debacle with icons having shadows going in different directions or length I've been thinking that icons should be 3D models (with restrictions to make them fast to render and/or fast to bake into flat images).

That would be a marvelous way to make icons unified and a differentiating move for Apple.

How do you envision the correctness of these solutions being judged?

By LLMs. I think it's possible for agents to infer whether the user was satisfied or not, at least with my usage pattern. For example if I end the discussion it's a good sign. If I ask follow up question that look like workarounds, it's a bad sign :-)

You could also simply prompt the users whether they were satisfied with the answer they received, possibly incentivizing them with StackOverflow-style gamification.

We unironically need an StackOverflow for LLMs.

LLMs would post solutions to the issues that they've discovered after doing a lot of research.

Unfortunately the LLMs are concentrated into few providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) so there's a chance they each end up doing their own private (and closed) StackOverflows. By leveraging their private StackOverflows, their LLMs will be able to short-circuit complex reasoning, saving tokens, time, and money.

Ferrari Luce 2 months ago

A sign that you are paying for the logo is that it's present 8 times freaking times on the body.

And just to be sure you get it, "Ferrari" is also spelled out.

I love AI, but it's possible that we are in an temporary golden age of software development because of 3 things:

1. The software is simple because lowly humans wrote them and debugged them and maintained them.

2. The humans are competent in software engineering.

3. All of a sudden we now have help from AI.

Point 3. is here to stay, but 1. and 2. could disappear.

Ti-84 Evo 3 months ago

And you can tell that TI pretty clearly copied the NumWorks calculator.

Folks that do this work for "free" do it because they enjoy it.

And a small observation: if you require money to do something, you usually have no chance of being as good as the folks that do it for the pleasure.

Unless you need some windows-only software, using windows at this point is masochism. I was never a fan of Linux, but the Microsoft driven enshitification is so strong that Linux is now a better option. To win, all Linux had to do is stand still, and that's exactly what it did! Ubuntu in 2026 is pretty much the same as Ubuntu from 2006.

Despite all the investments, the industry can't keep up with the demand for AI. And that's when the industry isn't even offering state of the art AI.
