Token use cost can easily get as large as dev salaries. Even real businesses care about that.

Yes and the staff will tell them to stop that or charge them extra for it.

There is no workload that latency sensitive is there? If it is you just move the server where it's needed. I.e. you do HFT next to the stock exchange.

Let's revisit that topic if the FED raises interest to 5%.

No you'd not think that. The thought of something not being human written didn't even occur to anyone before decent LLMs came around.

wow, that's weird. One would think that updating the reference table is something a team or individual - who just spent a lot of time and effort on implementing a feature - would also do.

Getting music on an ipod was always a pain unless you bought the music on itunes or ripped a music CD directly with itunes (yes, that was an actual feature. hard to imagine these days).

No simple drag and drop onto a mounted USB drive like all other mp3 players back in the day. Maybe more of a lock-in attempt instead of lock down, but related imo.

Tinygrad sure shared a few opinions on AI PRs on Twitter. I believe the gist was "we have Claude code as well, if that's all you bring don't bother".

For the love of god, don't use these ai generated infographics/diagrams.

If that's your bar for quality, I'll think less of your code. I can't help it.

Also your saxpy example seems to be daxpy. s and d are short for single or double precision.

Tried one of those MacBooks Neos in a store a few days ago because I got curious.

As a Linux/windows user I was completely baffled that you actually have to click (at least in the default setting) to make a mouse click instead of just giving it a tap. Does anyone prefer that?

Good luck vibe coding marketshare for your new tool.

The dev market? Anthropic's services are arguably more popular among a certain developer demographic.

I guess this move might end up in a situation where the uv team comes up with some new agent-first tooling, which works best or only with OAI services.

Most likely because Jetbrains is not for sale. Google almost certainly offered to buy at some point.

ChatGPT had memory for a long time. Claude also had it for quite some time for paying customers.

Pixel buds have this feature, it's called transparency mode. I use it for cycling so I'm still aware of my surroundings in traffic.

I guess because Panther lake ThinkPads won't ship until April, but definitely something to watch out for.

Because AMD had the better chips for the majority of the last decade. Intel has only recently caught up.
