Similar experience with Clojure here. IMO the functional orientation of the language makes it so that the LLMs don't write as much bloat, and it's much more pleasant for me to read and hand-refactor than TypeScript

I don't let the LLM write macros though, it creates too much opacity for me to easily reason about what they've done.

The company I work at (https://getunblocked.com) is built to give tools like Claude Code and Cursor context based on all your docs, issues, code, and chat threads from Slack and soon Teams. Happy to give you a demo sometime if you're interested!

Looks amazing! (Also, I've known Dexter since before Human Layer and he's a force of nature. If you think this is interesting now, you're going to be amazed at where it goes)

Great idea. I used to work at Instabase, which you probably compete with. The better you are at dealing with dodgy PDFs and document scans, the more valuable this will be to big banks, shipping companies, etc.

They've been in Phoenix for the past two years (generally available for the past year). They're so commonplace now, I don't think anyone really notices them.

A few possible reasons: Cheap & reliable electricity (https://www.axios.com/local/phoenix/2024/04/26/arizona-power...), low seismic activity (https://www.spglobal.com/mobility/en/research-analysis/brief...), existing semiconductor supporting industries (as mentioned elsewhere in this thread), and a politically favorable business environment.
