Really interesting product. A ton of these sandbox companies recently but it feels like no one has really nailed the experience for application builders yet.

Really excited to try this one out

I’d also argue it needs to compile fast/ have fast static analysis. Feedback loops like this are super helpful for agents

Maintainer here.

In the case where a human edits a previously AI-generated line we simply track that as a human-produced line of code. We are thinking of making this a distinct subcategory because there's a lot of useful info in that data.

Regarding performance we haven't done rigorous benchmarks but we've been using this internally and haven't noticed any problems

Do you have examples of any of these ideas being implemented? In general I agree, there’s so much opportunity for these “knowledge augmented” algorithms

Curious how this scales. Just tried this with the test dataset and it was probably the slickest deduplication experience I’ve had

Is there any way to even use this today? I’ve been waiting for the server and file system components to be open sourced for a couple years now

This seems weirdly hostile. He laid out a bunch of points but you’re grabbing on to this one to make it seem like he’s using classic corporate-speak. Do you find it so unrealistic that the CEO of Sourcegraph has heard from devs that their managers asked them to try to clone or investigate the product before buying? That seems pretty likely

What was the breakthrough and what have we learned? I'm interested in reading more about this

This post is a bad analysis.

> While some will praise Satya Nadella and hero-worship Sam Altman, breaking OpenAI into two parts will slow down momentum for LLMs and research while handing even more power to the Cloud and Azure in its future

Except that Microsoft nor Sam is responsible for the breaking of OpenAI. It was the non-profit board. Instead now Sam and co will have access to the Microsoft war chest, funding for more compute, chip design, and datasets so if anything they’ll probably move even faster than before.

> Microsoft taking Sam Atman and his followers in, is like shutting down your best investment just for a short-term benefit. These stories don’t usually end well for big corporations.

Again this makes little sense and its very clearly obvious how this makes long term sense for Microsoft. Also they did not initiate this move by OAI

> It’s the job of Venture Capitalist to praise Microsoft, Satya Nadella, and Sam Altman to vilify OpenAI’s board in all of this.

No it isn’t

> Microsoft eating OpenAI and poaching their talent, is the worst possible scenario for the startup that was just beginning to get momentum.

No firing the beloved CEO of the fastest growing tech startup in a decade and ignoring warnings from 80% of employees that they would quit is the worst scenario for a startup regardless of what Microsoft does

This whole post seems like really bad pattern matching by someone who is anti capitalism and tries to frame every scenario they see in business through that lens
