Use `git diff` or your in-editor git diff viewer
awestroke··on Claude Code SDK
You may want to try listening to others during meetings rather than talk ceaselessly
awestroke··on A Research Preview of Codex
At the end of the day, it's your job to deliver value. If a tool allows you to deliver more faster, without sacrificing quality, it's your responsibility to use that tool. You'll just have to make sure you can fully take responsibility for the end deliverables. And these tools are not only useful for writing the final code
awestroke··on Dopamine signals when a fear can be forgotten
Cold plunge is good but keep in mind cold water immersion inhibits hypertrophy (but improves recovery time) depending on time since exercise, temperature and duration.
awestroke··on Watching o3 model sweat over a Paul Morphy mate-in-2
O3 is massively underwhelming and is obviously tuned to be sycophantic.

Claude reigns supreme.

Rust, D, Nim, Crystal, Julia

Including keys?
awestroke··on We clone a running VM in 2 seconds
It's not an uncommon viewpoint. Especially if you compare them to containers.
awestroke··on PHP isn't dead. Laravel is just bloated. Here's what I made instead
PHP is in decline, and rightly so. I don't understand this urge of holding on to PHP with a panicked iron grip when there are so many better languages, regardless of which metrics one happens to care about. Whatever
awestroke··on The Llama 4 herd
No. That disclaimer implies that there are other likely answers. The age of the earth is completely settled, and has been for a long time. Facts don't care about your feelings.

Sam Altman is immune to consequences
awestroke··on Scallop – A Language for Neurosymbolic Programming
Icky name
awestroke··on Mox – modern, secure, all-in-one email server
The admin interface is pretty, the webmail interface is ugly
awestroke··on Mox – modern, secure, all-in-one email server
> However, I noticed: when I showcase it to some people, some of them mistake the very simple minimalist web interface for being ‘outdated’ or similar - it appears that to be "modern", things are required to be extremely bloated, and even technical people look down on fast (seriously: try it) clutter-less design.

The design is ugly. It could easily be made much more beautiful while adding zero clutter.

awestroke··on How to turn off Apple Intelligence
Yeah Kudos to Altman for pearl clutching and holding back the whole field
awestroke··on OpenAI says it has evidence DeepSeek used its model to train competitor
Excuse me? What weights can you download from OpenAI? gpt2 does not count
awestroke··on OpenAI says it has evidence DeepSeek used its model to train competitor
> I don't see how, and you're not explaining it. If the models had been public this whole time, then... they would be protected against people publishing derivative models?

Are you suggesting that if OpenAI published their models, they would still want to prevent derivative models? You take the "I wish OpenAI was actually open" and add your own restriction?

Or do you mean that them publishing their models and research openly would not have increased innovation? Because that's quite a claim, and you're the one who has to explain your thinking.

awestroke··on OpenAI says it has evidence DeepSeek used its model to train competitor
No. They publish PDFs that hype up their models, but they do not publish anything even resembling a high-level overview of model architecture
awestroke··on Microplastics block blood flow in the brain, mouse study reveals
People in a few decades may have too much microplastics in their brain for such thoughts
awestroke··on Yek: Serialize your code repo (or part of it) to feed into any LLM

No, it lives until the end of its last scope regardless of name
awestroke··on Nvidia's Project Digits is a 'personal AI supercomputer'
