leetcodes as much as we dont like them. could help to reduce bias. you either pass or fail them at the very least. now too much is being left to hand waving, interpretations can be charitable on the mood of the interviewer, or the opposite.

One could even think of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungry_judge_effect

Although I do appreciate, giving green minds the chance, I cannot help but think hiring managers will read into "A Little Bit of Slope Makes Up For a Lot of Y-Intercept" as an excuse for ageism. Which the industry is already pretty rife with.

If you look at the timeline it looks like a broader trend. It’s hard for me to believe AI adoption was so immediate it resulted in immediate job loss. 2024? 2025? Maybe 2026? We haven’t even gone beyond the early adopters phase of the adoption curve yet

if (when) a better solution arises it will be the dominant solution. long live electron

Please have a look at my latest project: https://edx0.dev

Cambridge Analytica? The addictions are from these free platforms which do so to harvest your data

this bill fixes nothing. if you wanted to prevent harm from the internet you would start with proper privacy laws. but we all know why that will never happen

Incredible to believe the CIA has more sway over artistic movements than actual artists.

I'm personally excited for a better thread story (not web-workers) and JIT

interesting, are ai agents talking to each other and being certain of each others identities a problem?

I’d be curious for a similar experiment converting frankenphp to rust.

Would be pretty incredible to see decentralized federated media individual accounts and aggregators implement the x402 payment protocol (https://x402.org) as a way for creators to get paid, and thus continue to create.

Im envisioning a spotify replacement. You could pay for your streams directly to artists or platform the artist hosts on. Allowing for a more free market of creators and consumers.

The 'Explore' part, would basically just be like Mastadon or Bluesky

the source of cc being closed, and peoples accounts being deactivated for 'openclaw'-esque misuse, i sort of assumed there were such things in the source. I wonder if there is anything else...

Raise the minimum wage to ~$25-30/hr

Before anyone says inflation, there will be more consumer spending and thus more cash flow in the middle and lower class

Argh, agent benchmarks are so bad and can be gamed easier than bmw emissions tests.

Anyone have a price chart comparing all the sandbox providers? (microvm included)?

Reminds of the TikTok ban for security and safety only for it to be sold to a fellow crony. Can't help but see this play going down again. Threaten / Ban / Control / Pressure a technology+company, then get your cronies a seat at the board.

The cynic in me suspects they were salivating so much over the Spacex IPO they wanted a finger in anthropics 2026 IPO. Banning fable ~1 day after.

I find it ironic, we now have to use lesser models to write potentially MORE buggy code, than greater models which would allow you to write LESS buggy code. It's paradoxical.

Looks like we are seeing small but mighty model breakthroughs, outpacing the pure capital firepower of SOTA providers. I love rooting for the little guy, but is it too soon to call it? To play devils advocate, could it just be the benchmarks are not efficient enough to capture success of real developer workflows?

> The catch is that regular EC2 is already a VM. AWS runs our host inside its own isolation layer, and then we run browser VMs inside that host. In other words, every browser is a VM inside a VM.

yes but i think there is specifically some ec2s which give you hypervisor access and thereby firecracker too - someone correct me if im wrong?

crazy that the maker of chrome(google) and also the owner of a massive amount of cloud services has not made a cloud product identical to this yet

I wonder if with enough input data and transcription you could “fingerprint” where a speaker personality has habits of interjecting “ums” leading to more hardy analysis. Novel approach, but gets me thinking

This is great, does it work in the browser via wasm? There’s an emcripten libgit2 out there but the wasm is a little big too be any fun

launching apple music on play, seems very similar to microsoft's early anti trust case and internet explorer

Maybe it’s misplaced nostalgia but google search before google plus ruined the +, and the image search was top tier (not shopping ads) - truly incredible the signal to noise you could find.

Now all the junk comes to the top and the sites you get all have ads and modal popups or sales funnel flows

> Alas it also had great views into the apartments at Neo Bankside whose residents ultimately sued and won, thus if you arrive by lift today you can only visit the cafe

bummer

Steve Yegge is the creator of gastown, a multi-agent workspace manager. It's an open source 21st century master piece of ai psychosis, slop, and most especially redundant processes, orchestration and code (MILLIONS OF LINES) I'm finding no surprise and even laugh-out-loud hilarious, that the author of such abomination is also the progenitor of the equally inane and psychotic hiring process of FAANGs like google and amazon.

That sounds like a violation of affiliate t&c ? Wouldn't that nullify them, and even lead to lawsuits?

Human output is not money go in production come out. This is tired. Companies continue to headquarter in the most expensive cities in the world. Surely they would all REMOTE TO THE BALKANS by now if it were actually a viable option
