Not related to the topic but. Do you have any book recommendations? Not necessarily programming or system related, looking for great books ~

Why would anyone jump to that trope? This is a girl, that is LEARNING to drive of course she doesn't know how to do it yet

i ended up paying for the ReadEra Premium app way after my phone was no longer my primary way of reading, just because i love it so much and for the time i use the free version i feel so respected and was so happy with the app that i needed to give back in some way.

Do you have any recommendations for models or what should i look out for ?

My mom wanted a printer for her birthday and it's been a few months without any success when it comes to selecting the right model

I'm part of the middle ground. Not able to do full agent code, but I'm fine using it to generate snippets that i fully read. I find it great to use apis with little documentation. For me AI is similar to a google search when im not able to find meaningful doc or i want the code snipped and refine over it

I'm not particularly anti-ai i do find it useful and i use it everyday for my job, i actually find it great for iterating ideas and especially for finding information about libraries or obscure APIs

But i read everything, i write most of my code by hand and I'm very careful to not shoot myself on the foot.

I say this because on the other side of the spectrum, some colleagues at work are VERY hyped about AI and i constantly suffer the consequences of them making changes without looking, the code is brittle and often introduces bugs

So I'm mostly anti hype, i can recognize it as a useful tool, but im tired of people using it without taking a few minutes to review what is outputting

Will Wood is such a great artist. Glad to see someone giving him recognition in the wild

I have a problem vibecoding and frustrating experiences with coworkers that are a little too much into it.

I can use AI to help me explore libraries or to replace a search, generate small snippets here and there, or even scripts that i occasionally need. But i can't vibecode, i don't know how to let go, i babysit too much, i read the code and i feel uneasy if I don't understand what I'm building, or why I'm building it in a certain way, i need to understand how the pieces work to make a whole

Fantastic work, very fun ! I actually only ran into the dead end scenario right until the last few words so not a frustrating first experience. But reading other comments maybe a setting to prevent the player to take a route that ends up unsolvable would be great. Kinda like the "Normal" and "Expert" Modes in worldle

I was thinking the same. Maybe if he tried to think instead of just asking the model. The premise is interesting "We optimize languages for humans, maybe we can do something similar for llms". But then he just ask the model to do the thing instead of thinking about the problem, maybe instead of prompting "Hey made this" a more granular, guided approach could've been better.

For me this is just a lost of potential on the topic, and an interesting read made boring pretty fast.

Recently i bought a book from Kindle because i couldn't find it in any other platform and I'm so happy it only cost me 1$ because i haven't been able to download the ePub version, none of the methods on the internet have worked for me or they need to use a physical kindle device. God it's so frustrating i just want to read a 1$ book on my Kobo
