yeah it's weird seeing Salesforce on that site, where if you previously worked for Salesforce, you were definitely part of the problem. This is ridiculous.
On the one hand, it has crashed into a lot of somethings—like cosmic radiation and micrometeorites. On the other hand, there is a lot of space in space, and the chances of Voyager crashing into something of the same or larger scale as itself is infinitesimal.
I would like operating systems vendors to be way more ambitious. There is no reason for Apple's Finder/spotlight to be so slow, when a guy with an LLM makes an alternative that is 500X faster. There is just no excuse now. Sure, it'll be more complicated to do it right, with all the decades of baggage, but now you can expend 3-4 people on radically optimizing different subsystems and see if there are any quick wins.
Only a few models could currently cope with this sort of codebase and I highly doubt Apple are happy posting everything off to Claude for a code review.
I think some figure they will die before any negative consequences hits them. And the hardliners are actively working on changing that social contract, where you will have no choice but to comply, because you will have no power. Many dictatorships still live on, in one form or another, with the elite doing just fine.
I've been using Compound Engineering by Every for a long time now. I like the brainstorm and plan features. Similarly I like the /grill-me skill by Matt Pocock. As a mediocre programmer, they help me get my ideas refined, documented and implemented.
I have found most of the other skills to emulate an 'enterprisy' way of developing, having everything checked multiple time by 'councils' and whatnot, making things slow, vacuum tokens like mad and the whole process reeks of cargo culting.
Same here. I turned off everything in superpowers except brainstorming
Making active decisions and weighing different alternatives improves my understanding, and I think the result is better, though that might just be because I understand it. Which is worth it on its own.
And given that Musk is now the biggest donor to republicans in the midterms, the dems probably don’t stand a chance. Again. So bad news for ukraine and the rest of the world.
