I am familiar with La Mirada, which is not a suburb of Los Angeles. Would be awful to have what the article describes. Instead, most of the residential neighborhoods there and in other parts of Orange County, which are dominated by single-family homes, should be demolished and replaced with apartment buildings.
> Living in a place where you can just walk for 10 minutes to get to a coffee shop or grocery store, but still have the option to drive, is a joy.
There are a fair number of neighborhoods in actual Los Angeles that are like this. But there are not enough.
If someone is willing to use Musk products, then I'd say they deserve it.
I understand if someone owned a Tesla from before and is unable to sell it and get something else (in which case they should throw one of the variations of anti-Elon sticker I have seen on there).
> I am still waiting for the day me and my wife can share a grocery list, that can be accurately modified by a voice assistant AND correctly sorted by category.
Sounds to me like that day could be any day with the tech as it exists (?) lol
You could use LLMs to help you build that reasonably quickly I imagine. Maybe not "weekend" quick, but within a couple weeks if you devote a couple hours a day. (Or maybe you're smarter than me and could do it in a weekend, IDK)
I do happen to be a misanthrope, but I suspect a lot of people who aren't also have distaste for your expression of joy at seeing the night sky full of satellites.
I do like big cities and their skylines though, sure.
I remember that being one of its "pros" when I was going over options with the LLM, but now, I just have a bunch of raw SQL strings in my codebase and sqlX's main use in that project, off the top of my head, is just instantiating Rust objects from the raw results with `FromRow` (it's probably doing more than I realize; I am not as connected with the code as I want to be, using LLMs to move fast to launch a couple features before revisiting a lot of the mess).
> Python doesn't have anything even close to something like SQLx, which is a natural fit in Rust because of how Rust macros work.
I'd be interested in hearing/discussing more about this. I was very surprised, when I embarked on my side project, that Rust's options for SQL ORMs all seem so weird.
I think what you are referring to is the derivation of FromRow and stuff with SQLx, right?
I general I agree with you. I think expressive type systems are superior, and they are even better in the LLM era.
I would quibble though that Python's is actually pretty good at this point, and, despite what the below poster is saying, straight-forward to set up and use. I am still perplexed that the author chose Python over Rust or Scala or TypeScript though, especially given they presumably want to migrate a Haskell codebase.
I just don't see how it's different from the pre-LLM landscape, personally.
The takes I have seen about the "ethical thickets" all call out things that could have concerned the authors before LLMs, but which apparently did not.
1) If he wants to rant in an emotionally honest way, he can, but other people are free to prefer professionalism and call him out.
2) > It sounds like Zig's relationship with Bun is over. While Anthropic/Jason/Bun did not write a personal narrative about the end of that relationship, they absolutely were the initiators and could not have done this in a more aggressive way. It feels to me to be approximately the equivalent of moving out in secret and serving the divorce documents through your lawyer.
What a bizarre framing of the relationship between a software library and the language it's written in. Why would you even liken it to a marriage lolwtf
Why do we owe him the withholding of criticism for what he writes on his blog he puts out there on the internet in the hopes that people will take his side/adopt his opinion?
