Pretty cool, I would suggest removing the z axis grids. Finding them very distracting

I still fondly remember fsgforums, where I was banned for impersonating the typical forum noob.

The dream of a single family home (in SF) is dying

I observe the same thing but it doesn't cause me difficulty. I think I more or less aim for the edge, vs the inside or outside.

Its not a great update and hopefully with Dye out they will make some changes, but personally I don't have this issue.

grow up

Highly recommend checking out Andreas' other work on https://ertdfgcvb.xyz/. Probably one of my favorite websites of all time, his body of work is what complete commitment to an idea looks like. Couple cool hardware projects in there too.

It's amazing to be able to try a bunch of ideas with very minimal cost. That being said, AI code assistants don't have eyeballs and they often make things that don't look very good. Craft, polish and judgement still matter.

Very cool. May i suggest making the keys pizza-slice-shaped so they are slightly easier to press?

One of my favorites as well. A folk space exploration sim. I did find a few of the puzzles a bit too difficult though.

I am making the point that this asset class is not very big.

The entire crypto market cap is about $2.8T, which makes it about 75% as big as Apple. Would the same argument make sense if the author were to say Apple employees alone "push up prices for houses, resort hotels, and all sorts of other things they do with their money". Kind of a stretch if you ask me.

in the sense that if I have to change the shape of a complex static object or do anything tedious, it can just do it. What exactly would you say I have to learn from tasks like that?

and a damn good one

Is that an AI generated image of the Venture Star? It's missing portside wings..

First result on Google

Insider baseball IMO.

Beautiful work, loved reading about your process.

How about a "no" to having product managers?

the brighter the light, the deeper the shadows

the reason is simple - they lost

I use Cursor as well, totally understand what you mean about glimpses of the future. The composer and tab complete are good at writing isolated units of functionality - ie pure functions, especially when they are trivial and have been written before. I appreciate that it saves me a google search or time spent on rote work.

I do wonder how much more sophisticated LLMs would have to be to really excel at multi-file or crosscutting whole-codebase editing. I have no way of really quantifying this but I suspect its a lot more than people think, and even then might require a substantially different approach to making software. Kind of reminds me of the people trying to make full length movies with video AI - cool trick but who wants to sit through 1.5 hrs of that? The gulf between those videos and an actual feature length film is _massive_, much like the difference between a prod codebase and a todo crud app. And it's not just about the level of detail, it's about coherence between small but important things and the overall structure.

Have any of these LLM coding assistant enthusiasts actually used them? They are ok at autocomplete and writing types. They cannot yet write "80% of your code" on anything shippable. They regularly miss small but crucial details. The more 'enthusiastic' ones, like Windsurf, subtly refactor code - removing or changing functionality which will have you scratching your head. Programming is a process of building mental models. LLMs are trying to replace something that is fundamental to engineering. Maybe they'll improve, but writing the code was never the hard part. I think the more likely outcome of LLMs is the broad lowering of standards than 5x productivity for all.

All kinds of exciting implications for small cameras and lens assemblies in VR/AR

Did you hear a cat just now?

Interesting to roll out the M4 with the low end machine

That reminds me. I should make a pot of tea.
