Definitely not murder prevention

Sure you can

This. With so much of my work being done with Claude Code via terminal, I’ve used vim and tmux more than I have in the 20 years since I was first introduced.

I guess you could say the same about a lot of craft- or skill-based professions that ultimately got heavily automated.

This reflects my experiences exactly. Thanks for writing this up.

Exactly. The comparison benchmark in the local LLM community is often GPT _3.5_, and most home machines can’t achieve that level.

I’m sure they said the same about Obama…. Right?

Well good sir, I _am_ a tmux magician.

I agree. Trying to punish will just deepen resentment, and they will live in their echo chamber while you live in yours. Then it's just side vs side, with the pundits leading the dialog.

We have to remember that we aren't all working from the same perceptual or moral framework. This is a struggle for me, as I love my parents but our believes have diverged considerably.

I think the challenge right now in the U.S. is that for many, it doesn't feel socially safe to question your own side. In reality, we need to feel free to judge actions individually, and judge leaders as a true accumulation of their actions. If we fear rejection from our party/family/friends for not walking in lock-step with the official party stances, that influences a lot of our thinking. No one wants to feel continually guilty about their own views (especially when there are social consequences for changing them), so we often shove aside conflicting details, make jokes, and signal to others that we're still a part of the tribe.

It sucks.

Yeah, I’m in agreement here. I get how this mindset might be off-putting, but we’re still in a phase of human development where if you don’t fight, you’re going to lose to people who will.

Trump is an example of someone who wants to fight, and now all of us who just want to get along are now playing catch-up, trying to figure out how to respond.

Thanks for resolving my internal dialog about returning to Lobsters. I’ll just stick around here as always.

As a U.S. citizen, I’m beginning to ask myself how to take more meaningful measures to help bring an end to this behavior. I’m not a political activist and generally try to mind my own business, but that mindset only worked when I felt I could trust the system to self-correct. It seems our judicial system can barely keep up, and Congress is doing next to nothing.

Realistically, it’s also a function of how many iterations it takes for an AI agent to correctly solve a problem with a given language. I’d imagine most AI agents would frequently have to redo J or F# code, as they are fairly uncommon languages with much smaller training set than JavaScript or Python.

Let go of any specific expectations of how you spend your days as an engineer. It’s likely going to be less and less coding by hand, a lot more code review, more taste-making (what code and features _should_ or _should not_ exist in a well-build system) a lot more opportunity to deepen adjacent skills. Personally, as a startup-oriented engineer, I am expanding my impact beyond traditional engineering and into broader product design, deeper UX experimentation, and adaptive architecture. I’m expanding my skills a bit into what used to only be the domain of PMs and designers. I also expect that PMs and designers will begin expanding their boundaries as well.

This is what the article begins by addressing and questioning.

It seems like it will be mildly fun for a few minutes, but not all that revolutionary. Does it leverage what makes Lego great and why people buy it for their kids and themselves? I don’t think so. Triggering your imagination and seeing limitless possibilities in what you can build or pretend is one of the keystones of Lego, in my opinion. Creating a brick that offers a few presets for specific types of models and play seems limiting.

But who knows, I’m almost 40, and I’ve been out of the target demographic for a long long time. My favorite sets were from the Space Police era.

Then I guess those people will sporadically gain weight

The back panel design, shape, and customizability reminds me a bit of the old Moto X that Motorola built while being owned by Google. Brings back some nostalgia.

How many lashes must I give myself before I buy this phone?

The example in the article really is true negligence. I can't imagine that lawyer did good work even prior to using AI.

My approach is that you're responsible for anything you ship, and I don't care (within reason) how you generated it. Once it hits production, it's yours, and if it has any flaws, I don't want to hear "Well the AI just missed it or hallucinated." I don't fucking care. You shipped it, it's _your_ mistake now.

I use Claude Code constantly. It's a great tool. But you have to review the output , make necessary adjustments, and be willing to put your name on it.

I spent about 30 days this year in hotels and don't envy these people at all.

Apologies, I meant browser normalization, not polyfill. Go my terms mixed up. I also appreciate Tailwind’s pre-built sizings and quick ways to define breakpoint-base styling at the element level. That said, if you want absolute control rather than convenience, then Tailwind can be more of a hindrance than a help. I would rather not manage a lot of that myself for most of my projects.

For real. For someone to even understand why this tool is useful and functions as intended, they need to have some deeper understanding of software development. Who cares if the implementation was done with AI. With Claude Code, I rarely write code by hand these days, yet my brain hurts more than ever from all the actual problem solving I’m able to drill into with all the programming cruft out of the way. I did it by hand for 15 years, and I don’t feel bad at all for handing that part over.

To your first question: For me, yes. Although, If I’m going to use it in multiple places with that same style, I’d find the best way to declare it once (like in a React component). Generally I much prefer to keep the style close to the element it’s styling, and I’d rather it be done declaratively rather than native CSS with polyfills. CSS is such a core part of appearance and behavior that building and debugging structures and style together is much more effective.

Same. I’d like to get into medicine, but I’m 38. That ship has sailed.

I’ve looked into putting together a small shop, but you’re right. Startup cost is really high, pay is shit.

As a teen, I idolized guys like you who kept their passions alive. I’m 38 and hope I can keep mine up as well.

Why can’t they just require government agencies to purchase US-made drones? Why is this a bigger threat than any of the millions of foreign electronics used to communicate in the U.S.?

Thanks! I saw typescript-lsp in the plugins list, but I wasn't sure if that was related.

On the bright side, maybe big tech will be the ones to accelerate fusion energy generation to a point of practical usage.
