Here's the 2min tldr:

Warp is a fast, Rust-based terminal. Key features include: 1. Modern editor that lets you edit input like an IDE 2. Input and output are grouped in blocks for easier navigation 3. Integrated AI for command suggestions, debugging, and chat 4. "Warp Drive" to save parameterized commands as reusable workflows (like aliases but easier to use and more powerful)

Mich from Warp here. Telemetry is completely optional in Warp.

This is really sad. I found comfort walking in public because I assumed if I’m stabbed/mugged, people will help me. I’m wrong.

> With this strategy, GC pre-funds a company’s S&M budget. In return, GC is entitled only to the customer value created by that spend, and GC’s entitlement is capped at a fixed amount. After GC reaches that fixed amount, the remaining lifetime value of the customers is the company’s to keep forever.

Good to see more ways of growing without giving up equity.

tldr; My teammate solved a bug by finding a detailed commit message in Chromium’s repo. High-quality git commits are an underrated form of documentation.

I like the concrete advice here on how to navigate distrust:

1. Lead with your bias. 2. Avoid cheap shots. 3. Be your own biggest critic. 4. You can still talk shit about software, just not your competitors‘ software. 5. Be generous with your expertise.

I agree with this take. Moreover, it takes a seasoned software architect to verify that the code generated is correct, clean, and idiomatic. Someone still needs to shepherd the machine.

> There's actually a growing body of evidence that shows the emergent ability of LLMs to reason (the so-called "chain of thought" ability) arises only when LLMs are trained on huge amounts of code, not just natural language. Natural language training data provides the ability to sound human, but it is the programming language training data that provides LLMs with the ability to be logical.

Good on Sourcegraph to contribute back to the open source community. LLMs rely more on open source code than meets the eye.

This is probably one of the most sincere and personal product announcements from a corporation I’ve read.
