Same here. The text is pretty smooth and there is nothing that stands out to sustain my attention, at least that's my interpretation

I think this could be very useful not when we talk to the agent, but when the agents talk back to us. Usually, they generate so much text that it becomes impossible to follow through. If we receive short, focused messages, the interaction will be much more efficient. This should be true for all conversational agents, not only coding agents.

This concept was very popular back in the days when computers used to boot from HDD, but now it doesn't make much sense. I wouldn't notice If my laptop boots for 5 sec instead of 10.

Maybe we can also mention the HP Memristor here.

How do you use M1 Air as iOS build server. Is 8G sufficient for only doing iOS builds? Do you connect to it remotely?

Couls you please describe your dev process.

How is Mog different than Mojo?

This is a very lame excuse. You can do 100 different things without compromising your shoulder. Try cardio. Or just wight lifting with very light weights. Or group classes.

I have Lenovo laptop with quite mediocre touchpad. I got used to use gestures instead of clicking and it works great for me.

I don't get this argument: don't do it, you have better otptions, but it is good for me because i enjoy it.

It has always been like this. Apple's signature for their laptops is their aluminium body and people seem to like it.

I have tried Julia few times and each time this is what stops me. I don't understand why they decided to make indexes R-like oposed to "all other languages"-like. My brain just stops working when i need to recalculate indexes and each time I'm wrong.

Some people may not realize it, but when it comes to programming languages, ergonomics matter—a lot.

I’ll never get why people hype up Zed. Sublime Text already has all the same perks—and beats Zed at the very things it claims to improve. Sure, it might not have every advanced feature, but for “vibe coders” who don’t need a full IDE and just want to skim or tweak generated code, Sublime Text is the better choice.

I'm not sure I agree with this. 10x more tokens means leaaving the agent to work for 10x longer, which may lead to bugs and misintepretation of the intention. Breaking the goal into multiple tasks seems more efficient in terms of tokens and getting close to the desired goal. Of course this means more human involvment, but probably not 10x more.

There is no way for this to be true. I read his book about vibe coding and it is obvoius that it has significant LLM contribution. His blog posts though are funy and controversial, and have bad jokes, and he jumps from topic to topic. Ha has had this style like 10+ years before LLMs came around.

If i remember correctly Feynman said in one of his lectures that we know the mass of the electron with much greater precision than the proton, which may mean that it electrons are easier to study. I don't know if this is still true though.

I have quetion - slightly off topic, but related. I was wandering why is pyhton interpreter so much slower than V8 javascript interpreter when both javascript and python are dynamic interpreted languages.
