I agree, build kite really blew me away. I know everyone tried to make simple yet powerful abstractions but it usually fails; build kite was the opposite where it was surprisingly better than I expected

I'm not sure what the problem is after rereading their post? All you need to support everything they said is a remote connection to a heirarchy of worktree-supporting sessions per project, with each having a proper scrolling feed of agent actions taken and your input box.

I just did. Good luck my brother/sister.

Spending all your money on extremely quickly depreciating graphics hardware and model training

Sorry for the off topic but I absolutely love the Estonian House in NYC. Wonderful people, events, and food

The new model every week is not necessary at this point really. What if you could run opus 5 for the next couple years at 1/20 the cost?

> The comparison suggests that the thing doesn't do what it's marketed to do

In my opinion you should interpret the usage of "AI" here to mean "the entire business/management/financial/bubble ecosystem surrounding LLMs". The snake oil is much more how LLMs are being weaponized and utilized rather than a specific technical assessment (although that often is an issue too)

Ok let's be honest 2.5 hours each way is an abomination and I bet most people who hate their WFH situation prefer it over that shit.

This is 2009 right? I almost expected the classic 100+ year old quote, but knowing the year still has the same effect of conveying how something that feels recent has been felt forever.

> if it costs 10x less

This will not happen. Nobody desires to give that up. Also AI does not deliver even remotely that much true value multiplier

You're asking why oil doesn't act like water. It's not really an impossible task, it's just not one they agree with.

Check out the Epic Encounters 2 mod for D:OS2. Best tactics experience I've ever had. Runners up are LWOTC for XCOM3 and Homebrew for BG3.

You do know that there's many different personalities that people can have right? A lot of people love writing code and don't care about those things at all.

You're so lucky you feel this way...every day is a worse hell for me since these demons arrived. I miss my job.

I wish I moved to HCOL earlier so I could have saved enough fast enough to be you. I thought it would take more time before the end...

That also looks like the widely used BSON ids, to anyone else interested

Yeah I've seen this a few times on the backend that decides this. The standard should be to use the accept-language header, but all the time when people write their own code on top of frameworks (or maybe use niche shitty ones) they just geoip for language.

For business use cases sometimes it's based on the company's default language that you're an employee for.

My iPhone friends literally grab my s24 ultra camera when we take pictures at cocktail bars and tell me to send them the picture

That doesn't get shown publicly for everyone else watching you.

I was an admin on a huge wire mod server as a teen and it changed my life :). I might not even have gotten into software, don't even want to imagine that life

I think you grossly undervalue execution. Ideas are cheap. Most developers would have turned those games into weaker money extracting machines that generate one tenth the love from current players

This fuels my feelings on why most uses of GenAI are such a step back for society's non-short-term effectiveness.

Isn't that what was said about the next year, the last two years?

Gotta love when you're in a 2,000 person public company, and you can still "heya Phil" despite not being a personal friend at all, and he even prefers it

I miss F#

I love how much this affects people on dating apps too, lol.

Yeah that's a really good analysis.

It feels emotionally true because when I buy many terabytes of high quality SSD, I have no preference to "keep the valuation" of my SSD investment, I just want more faster for cheaper! If the price goes down tomorrow and my friend gets in for less than I just paid, it's not screwing me over. In fact I'm probably buying more on the future so I love the increased supply!

This is not true at all for housing lol. As someone who bought Manhattan real estate, I can feel the shitty incentives every day, and it's really destructive of a system.

This is a really good point that honestly I've been neglecting considering. I try to help and push my friends to be better than most (because honestly most are quite lazy and entitled) but still you can't ignore the societal ramifications of most people getting less than they expect.

Honestly NYC has a lot of its best restaurants by train stations, throughout every borough.

Yeah it's like fully virtualized to run the same familiar environment completely on a local machine. It's not even remotely comparable. Extremely necessary in many cases like thin clients for machine learning
