Design With Intent

You don’t think openai, google and other companies’ employees don’t do the same thing?

Of all the companies where employees are ghost-contributing llm code, Anthropic would be pretty low on my list to ban.

It will sometimes do this for gitignored files to avoid reading secret tokens in env files for example. But for certain languages that rely on code generation this can be a pain.

Ah I just started using ghostty maybe a week ago and I mostly use quick terminal so I might be missing the panes on the regular windows.

Zellij has been holding me over with tabs and panes (in quick terminal) while I wait for them to come to ghostty directly.

Tabs (and panes? I haven't tried yet) should work fine for regular terminal windows though.

I see it as trying to apply the bitter lesson to robotics. Specialized robots will always have their place, but humanoid ones can take advantage of all the design interfaces that already exist in the world for humans.

Similar to how claude code gained so much traction in terminal by just leveraging the command line interface that already exists for humans, no need to invent a domain specific MCP to just run shell commands.

I agree with you that it's far from the most efficient approach for specific tasks. But the analogy would be that you also generally don't want to use LLMs to do something you can "just" write a script for... that doesn't make LLMs useless though.

Both can be true. I have personally experienced both.

Some problems AI surprised me immensely with fast, elegant efficient solutions and problem solving. I've also experienced AI doing totally absurd things that ended up taking multiple times longer than if I did it manually. Sometimes in the same project.

The fact that I can unlock and relock the bootloader is not a security issue or a risk. People who don't know what that means cannot possibly do it by mistake.

The second sentence is false. Lots of people blindly follow things and don't understand consequences until they brick their devices. Those who don’t break something won’t notice if they’ve silently backdoored themselves.

People asking for support after getting themselves into some weird hole they never should have been in because some friend or online article said so is super common.

Apple M5 chip 9 months ago

That seems like a typo or incorrect info, the M5 MBP definitely can be configured up to 32 GB, and the Apple page mentions 32 GB explicitly as well.

Swift 6 2 years ago

Kotlin Native's choice to go with a GC over native memory management is my biggest issue with it and really limits its use for memory and performance sensitive use cases.

I Love Ruby 3 years ago

I actually dislike that Ruby reads like natural language. The complex logic in large systems would take many paragraphs to describe in english but is often much clearer and more succinct in code.

I have yet to find a portable windows machine that doesn’t throttle performance on battery. Weird that no reviewers ever mention it but Macs have nearly no performance difference and they plugged in vs on battery and that’s a huge reason I don’t trust using any Windows laptops on the move.

If you know HTML you JSX is very intuitive.

That's a poor assumption that appears to be based on your personal preferences and what you're comfortable with. I personally find both require some learning, but prefer the svelte version.

Why Not Signal? 5 years ago

I don't use Signal to message strangers, only contacts who I have phone numbers of. Seems like that's the use case for most messaging apps like Whatsapp and iMessage that Signal was designed to "compete" with. Signal is a private messaging app, not an anonymous messaging app. A worthwhile distinction with very different (though overlapping) target audiences.

Perhaps depends on your goals. Virulent enough to cause global panic and show how a totalitarian state can respond better to a pandemic than democratic stated. But not virulent enough to actually kill everyone.

Similarly SARS and MERS were perhaps too virulent and could thus easily be controlled by screening for symptoms, while the new coronavirus can spread without symptoms, which could possibly be attributed to the lower virulence.
