Idk… I’ve written 100k sloc in ~2 weeks on the Claude £20 subscription with sonnet medium alone. Seems pretty good to me.

Parakeet really is quite amazing, I've even had it transcribe words before I've finished saying them! The WER% seems really good too.

Is antigravity still heavily rate limited?

Feels like some good points but the llm writing makes it feel less trustworthy

I am working on two projects these days, one in Go and one in Clojure and anecdotally, I prefer clojure. (Easier to review, better iteration cycles through repl, cleaner and more concise code, better domain modelling)

cool idea!

When you put it like that, I kinda warm to the guy

If you are going to read in English, I can recommend the translation by Oliver Ready

It sounds like you should try ocaml

I’ve found turning on the 15m daily limit (the minimum available) has been helpful.

I actually think Ada has good potential as an AI adjacent language because the syntax is optimised for readability (I personally find it very readable too.)

I use clojure over common lisp because I find the ecosystem (libraries) a bit more approachable (feels like there is more web oriented stuff in clojure, plus gui support with javafx.) That said, the actual experience of working in common lisp is better (bit better repl/recompilation, conditions, native compilation.) Personally, I don't find scheme as practical for writing programs as either of these two options (too fragmented and/or niche.)

The book: el arte flamenco de la guitarra By juan martín is good. Focus on compas (rhythm). Use a metronome (tedious).

A lot of people say if you don’t use LLMs then you will fall behind. I’m starting to think that not using them will be a significant advantage in the long run.

In particular, it makes nocmig drastically more approachable. Be warned, though, that the false positive rate is extremely high (which is to be expected).

I agree on your sentiment and it’s also in the Bible: 1 Cor 3:3-6. It bothers me when people switch denomination and say they have “converted.”

"When the data and the anecdotes disagree, the anecdotes are usually right."

Thanks for your work on falco, it’s a really great library.

I’ve recently learnt blazor as a non-dotnet person. I definitely think it comes across as complex at first glance. The learning is pretty front loaded (especially with efcore too) but it’s not too bad once you dive in.

In particular, I am a big fan of the Maui blazor hybrid stuff. Worth a look if you fancy making a desktop app.

Giving examples of inputs and outputs can also help

This idea was also more or less explained in the book "The Mikado Method".

Similar ethos with ruby too: Jesus is nice so we are nice.

I’ve not followed the news for about 7 years now. A niche benefit of WFH is that I don’t have to accidentally hear coworkers talking about it either.

Nim is a fun language but I wouldn't consider it for "serious" work. It has the same issues as other niche languages (ie. ecosystem), plus: a polarising maintainer (most core contributors don't seem to last long) and primarily funded by a crypto company (if you care about that). Then again, 10 years ago none of that would have bothered me.

It would have been a different story if these features had shipped a few years ago but react query is definitely the elephant in the room here.

anyone with experience who can compare LV and Blazor?

I’m sure I’ve seen a clip of some tv chef saying it is unnecessary. Maybe Jacques Pépin but not sure.

My favourite way too and fwiw not mutually exclusive with Tailwind (in case anyone was wondering).
