How do they make the context window longer? (serious question, I want to learn how this works)

Funny I'm a professional engineer and happily call myself "vibe coding" when writing code these days, it started as tongue in cheek, but now I've embraced it.

Being good at vibe coding is just being good at coding, the best practices still apply. I don't feel we need another term for it. It'll just be how almost everyone writes code in the future. Just like using an IDE.

Not sure why you're downvoted. I've tried Robotaxi a few times and has been great. They still have a safety driver these days and wait time is a big high though.

A few large companies with big cash stockpiles and profit can eat this the first couple years, not so for startups and companies with thin margins.

How are you writing your prompts? I usually break a feature down to smaller task level before I prompt an agent (claude code in my case) to do anything. Feature level is often too hard to prompt and specify in enough detail for it to get right.

So I'd say claude 4 agents today are at smart but fresh intern level of autonomy. You still have to do the high level planning and task break down, but it can execute on tasks (say requiring 10 - 200 lines of code excluding tests). Any asking it to write much more code (200+ lines) often require a lot of follow ups and disappointment.

I feel this way too. It was scary the first couple weeks, but I'm glad I gave it more of a chance. Over time you learn when to trust it and what situations it you need to take over, and then it just becomes a normal part of driving with less stress on me while my brain energy is spent looking for problems instead of keeping up with traffic or in the lane.

Really a human + AI hybrid experience.

Uber has used this tactic many times in their early days. It mostly worked because citizens got used to cheap rides and got mad at their government for taking it away.

Became a fan of Mullvad when I visited China. It was the most reliable VPN app I tested and you can have up to 5 devices per account.

I remember this. Wish I'd kept my little piece of history. Written at a time when people were still optimistic and hopeful about tech.

I wonder if you can train a neuronetwork to have the kind of intuition Ramanujan had. How incredible would it be for math discoveries. Then separate AIs to try and prove or disprove the insights.

They did promote their Chief Financial Officer to President not too long ago. The signs have been pointing that way for a while before that though.

How does it change things if they had their own communications platform and someone hacked that to send this message?

My e-bike uses the same battery cells used in Electric cars, so I have to give credit to what Tesla and the electric car industry has done to make long range ebike batteries affordable.

honestly, the mental math around metric time demonstrated in this post makes me think we should go the opposite way and make everything else base 12 instead of making time base 10. Being divisible by 2, 3, 4 and 6 makes a lot of mental math easier.
