By that logic, billions of users are using OS/2. Or...wait for it...everybody is using Unix.

I was 100% sure that somebody will throw this, but I didn't actually expect to do it from a throwaway account. Maybe because you know calling Android Linux is like calling a human just an ape (but mirrored because you know, Android in this case is the ape). Oh, and Microsoft Loves Linux, right? Because that's why they invented WSL, to make people go and use Linux, right? riight!!

And transistors as light sensors if you decap and expose the semiconductor junction to light

OK, half the article is on and on about harness and scaffolding and whatnot. I kept reading waiting for a benchmark where they give the same scaffolding to GLM like they did to Opus. Where is that one?

And just like Linux lost to Windows in consumer market due to devs/creator's stubbornness, same will happen with closed vs open LLM. In the end the one that is used the most will be the one that you train your kids on and therefore the one that wins the market. Eventually the closed one with too much guardrail will be left behind because people will stop using it.

You need to read the market. Linus didn't read it in 90's, Gates did and that's why Windows is in almost every home.

all vulnerabilities are just bugs.

Oh, c'mon. If Alibaba wanted, it can have the entire Claude/Mythos source code and data by next week. All you need is enough bribe to a developer that has access to the repository. Humans are always the weakest link in anything.

I don't like .epub. I understand the reasons why this format exists, and I am 100% behind those reasons. But it's because I don't find any EPUB readers appealing to me. Just give me a FoxIt Reader clone for .epub, that's all. But naaaah!!, every single fucking e-pub reader that I tried must be a fucking library collector instead, like it's 2000's Windows Media Player style. I hate that.

As such, whenever I get my hands on an .epub file, I go to an online converter, convert it to a .pdf file and nuke it from my system. Then the .pdf gets opened in my FoxIt.

Stop dancing and share the prompt, we're dying to see it

Didn't had one yet. Apparently all I have is "crap, here we go again" whenever Claude is giving me a solution to the problem I am presenting to it. Because I understand where it goes and it's full of errors, but those are errors I can avoid. Together we cobble something in the end, I do learn something new as well, but was never "here is my prompt, then Claude delivered final solution next" - like so many commenters here point out they have.

Frankly, to an outsider whatever it presents looks legit, but as an expert I recognize its failures, which makes me even more entrenched in the idea to never use it outside my area of expertise.

I have a question for all them believers: If on a hypothetical scenario you, having no medical experience, find yourself and your child on a mountain, 12 hours away from nearest road, and your offspring is having appendicitis (let's assume your recognize this 100%), with a sharp knife and Claude at your disposal - would you risk to operate on your child? Or hurry the fuck down to get him to a hospital? I know I would chose to get him to a hospital, because that would be a better chance for my kid to live than me to operate on my kid with Claude's assistance. I am pretty sure I would kill my kid on that mountain. So yeah, outside my area of expertise I don't trust Claude one bit.

I actually love this deskilling. It means your project will accumulate unseen consequences that at one point in the future, several hiring churns done meanwhile, you'll need to hire an actual competent programmer to untangle the entire spaghetti code. And don;t come at me with "but AI will be able to do just that". Yeah, the same way that OS'es kept growing in size with each hardware leap (remember 1 GB XP installation was a shock?), the same way the code that better models will spit out will grow too. And then when 20 prompts later the AI will hallucinate a shitload of new classes, the boss is going to finally be at the crossroads "scratch this and restart or pay the consultant a crapload of money" question. And I will wait just around the corner to be that consultant. For me the future is looking bright actually.

Quote 1: "DBOS recently argued that Postgres is all you need for durable execution...SQLite is all you need."

Quote 2: "SQLite State backed up to S3". Yeah buddy, if you think S3 isn't Postgres I'll eat my foot.

I see that as an absolute win. Free publicity and all that jazz. Plus idiots with their fake submissions of bugs will either bleed money or gtfo from my repo.

Quote 1: "We need to return to a habit of building software where our local devices do the work."

Quote 2: "I can only speak on the tooling available within the Apple ecosystem since that’s what I focused initial development efforts on."

Oh, the irony. I will use your tooling when is available on Android with F-droid, that's when, at least, be decoupled from big companies grip.

Making you own language is easy. Creating the library that will actually solve problems without forcing the developers to reinvent the wheel is the crux. There is a reason why C++ / Java / JavaScript etc are established, it's the already proven libraries around those languages that allows them to be so successful.

Of course the devil is in details. This entire article read like an alien visiting Earth and concluding "Humans and Dogs have 84% DNA in common, no wonder they make such a good pair."

One of the first things I do (after using O&O ShutUp10++ of course) when setting a new installation is to create "C:\Temp\" folder and go to them variables to point there. Mind you, you have global TMP and TEMP, and you have user defined (which points to \Windows\Temp instead of %LOCALAPPDATA%/Temp) ones. All 4 will point to my folder and makes my life a lot easier in the long run
