Can you expand a bit more on this? What first principles?
Re:OpenClaw 2.0, Accidentally on Monday August 31, 2026 @05:51AM (#49507769)
OpenClaw is a vibecoded mess. Updates break default installation flow all the time.
How is Pi so efficient? You'd think agent harness made by model makers would perform better.

Pricing looks very enticing. I don't care about politics, but if you can get SOTA model for 50% cheaper, why not try it?
How did you even find these? Even in discussions about cheap AI I've never seen anyone mention this. Great find!
I am also feeling anxious. I lucked out by having natural inclination towards software development, career which can provide good upper middle class life to anyone. But I feel like writing is on the wall. If I don’t find a way to pivot to something else, I might experience class migration, but in the opposite direction this time.

How so? I haven’t tried it, I stick to one provider for my projects.

Meh, $20 Codex is better at this moment anyway.

Can you share the rubberduck skill?

What is the best way to get a throwaway phone number to try this? Is it possible to get one online?
Re:JVM Options Explorer on Sunday April 12, 2026 @08:09AM (#47738746)
Which JVM options do you use the most?
Re:Native Instant Space Switching on macOS on Thursday April 09, 2026 @06:21PM (#47711028)
Genuine question - why do people even use spaces? Why is it better than just CMD+Tab or CMD+Tilde until you arrive at the window you want?
Re:OpenClaw privilege-escalation bug on Saturday April 04, 2026 @06:21AM (#47637739)
Which "claw" so you recommended?
Re:Cohere Transcribe: Speech Recognition on Tuesday March 31, 2026 @01:50PM (#47591053)
Why are you 'worried' about it? Shouldn't we strive for better technology even if it means some will 'lose'?
Did you get any insights about yourself from this process? I am thinking of doing the same
It's not that interesting.
What if English is my second language? Undoubtedly being well spoken is associated with higher class. Your arguments will come of as stronger to the reader.

Who? I am really interested, can you provide more info?
Re:Welcome to the Wasteland: A Thousand Gas Towns on Wednesday March 04, 2026 @01:02PM (#47251329)
I don't claim I am a good developer, but I seriously doubt any project which can't be explained with couple of sentences at most.
Re:MacBook Neo on Wednesday March 04, 2026 @09:31AM (#47247892)
Built for Apple Intelligence. 8GB of RAM. It will be a struggle but I have no doubt it will sell really well.
Re:The Excommunicated Devs Making Games with AI on Tuesday March 03, 2026 @01:12AM (#47228757)
Which game engine is recommended for vibe coding games? I assume something like Unity is not very practical, since it's very GUI heavy.
I am yet to see one good use case for it.
Re:Don't trust AI agents on Saturday February 28, 2026 @10:35AM (#47196533)
As someone who went down so many "productivity rabbit holes" I think this is a great idea.
Re:Don't trust AI agents on Saturday February 28, 2026 @09:18AM (#47195671)
As someone who only coding agents at work, can someone describe their use case for claw type agent? What do you do with it?
Re:What Is a Database Transaction? on Sunday February 22, 2026 @01:12PM (#47113253)
Have you ever seen anyone changing transaction isolation levels in code? I think pessimistic or optimistic locking is preferred way to handle transaction concurrency.

Why is "modern approach" changing user threads to virtual threads?
Re:I’m joining OpenAI on Monday February 16, 2026 @07:39AM (#47034274)
Can you explain why for someone who is just familiar with traditional agents like Claude Code?
Re:Gemini 3 Deep Think on Thursday February 12, 2026 @01:41PM (#46993111)
Google models and CLI harness feels behind in agentic coding compared OpenAI and Antrophic

So can a skilled coach make consistent returns in his sport. But sportsbetting is considered gambling.
