Reminds me of telnetting to port 80 to make a get request years and years ago

Wouldn't a re-implementation be akin to 'heres how it works, write the code' rather than 'heres the code, redo it in rust'?

Code review tool that breaks up diffs and regroups fragments based on runtime execution paths and/or architectural boundaries. I find it useful sometimes to see changes organised that way.

Didn't work for me even when I chose to see the desktop site in my mobile browser :/

It's pretty easy to see what that does though, even if it is shorter. Wouldn't the other approach be more obfuscated?

I type somewhere, nothing appears

they've also still got their storage stuff. I always wondered why that isn't doing better, it seemed pretty damn good when I've ended up working iwth it.

Are LLM's really doing the scraping?

Wont this just be non-intelligently scraped, stored, and then fed into the training dataset?

I mean, who's scrping all this stuff and then running inference across it at the kind of scales this implies?

5318008 ftfy ;)

I wonder what happens if you ask Claude to solve the problem, and don't review it's answer properly..

They could easily have read it, and thought , that communicates the information that it needs to.

No point creating busywork for yourself just shuffling words around when the information is there, no?

I guess it depends on what you want out of the article. Substance, or style?

I looked for this coat, or one like it not so long ago. I found Andrea Galer is making them tailored to order for £2-£3k . Something I can't afford unfortunately. If anyone knows if anything passably similar let me know!

Fractal means that something has a fractional spatial dimension. Ie, a fractal plane filling curve would have a dimension somewhere between 1 and 2

there are plenty of enterprise github users. Where I work currently has an internal github and uses external github.com to host public facing OSS work.

We've had trouble with git and repo's that have used non standard refs. It's all fine and fancy until we wanted to use some tooling that works with git, except it wouldn't see our unusual refs, and because they were non standard they were effectively hidden unless you knew they were there. So the migration work (almost) silently lost 10+ years of old work that was hiding away under those non standard refs.

it's not being able to code thats the problem. It's a multiplier on how much you can complete in a given timeframe.

Sounds like you may have been hallucinating to begin with.

You have two buttons. If you press that one, you might die. If you press the other one, you won't die. Which one do you press?

You might die if you press blue.

Ok.. don't press blue.

Stty sane has also got me out of this hole many times

no, he's saying that in amongst whatever else is there, you can often see how you could refine your prompt to guide it better in the firtst place, helping it to avoid bad thinking threads to begin with.

This was my thought too. Your tool is great at finding vulnerabilities, and we want software to be secure for everyone, secure code should not be out of reach to those who can't afford it.

Scan everyone's code, for free. Make all code as secure as an llm can make it as a baseline.

This feels like it misses the point. Tokens = money. The real differentiator is time and effort.

Llm's will find your issues faster, but not necessarily more accurately than a domain expert. But experts cost money and effort takes longer to apply.

Are llm's going to reduce everyone's wages because they are cheap labour?

In Greek mythology, Procrustes (/proʊˈkrʌstiːz/; Greek: Προκρούστης Prokroustes, "the stretcher [who hammers out the metal]"), also known as Prokoptas, Damastes (Δαμαστής, "subduer") or Polypemon, was a rogue smith and bandit from Attica who attacked people by stretching them or cutting off their legs, so as to force them to fit the size of an iron bed

I can't figure out if you meant that or not, it kinda fits. (No pun intended)

It's perfectly fine and usable for me. More so than the app or the 'new' Reddit design. I exclusively use the old design.

I see aot if these kinda of links to GitHub repositories with the user obviously keen on showing people, but they then describe what it is / does using specialist / domain language which can make it quite hard to get just what it is I'm looking at, or what I can do with it, and where / why it would be useful. I do wish people would consider their audience after posting 'look at this thing' links, and that people might not quite be as familiar with acronyms and domain specific terminology without a bit more of a plain speaking background description as to what is being shown off! Maybe even some screenshots too.

I mean, I can follow ops intent to a general degree, it sounds interesting, but ..

3 things currently; some fun toys..

Web based two player bingo race game in an attempt to drag significant other away from mobile phone. :p

Optimised gravity sim, everyone loves a good gravity sim. Event driven physics and aiming for 10000 spheres at 60fps.

Alife simulation where critters can read and write symbols into/from their environment to see if we can't get some kind of rudimentary communication evolved.

Nothing super serious, but fun gadgets to tinker with :)

designers are creatives and will always believe the visual elements of a design need to be updated, refreshed, modernized etc.. then we get flavour of the month nand new trends in visual language and ui design that things must be updated to.

As soon as UI design became a creative visual thing rather than a functional thing , everything started to go crazy in UI land..

I'm finding the oppostire with copilot. A request is a prompt, with some caveats around whats generating the prompt. I am quite happily working with opus 4.6 at 3x cost and about 1/3 oor the month in I'm stting at ~25% usage of a pro+ subscription. I find it quite easy to track my usage and rate of usage.

The overall context windows are smaller with copilot I believe, but it dfoesnt appear to be hurting my work.

I'm using it for approx 4 hours a day most days. Generally one shotting fun ideas I thoroughly plan out in planning mode first, and I have my own verison of the idea->plan->analyse-> document implementation phases -> implement via agent loop. simulations, games, stuff-im-curious about and resurrecting old projects that never really got off the ground.

Different techniques appropriate in different situations, I would decide on what's appropriate given the goals you have. Whichg is nearly always the answer to X is a better way than Y arguments.
