I really enjoy this author's writing style: casual, informative, accessible, engaging and wasting no words.

That’s interesting to hear as for me Claude has been quite good about writing code that fails fast and loud and has specifically called it out more than once. It has also called out code that does not fail early in reviews.

Healthcare, education and childcare are either free or affordable in almost all developed countries.
Even in places where these services are expensive, it does not seem to be because the workers are highly paid.

I imagine personal trainers and childcare workers would see a drop in demand and perhaps also an increase in supply if a bunch of people suddenly lost their jobs to AI.

Nice! The visualization makes it easy to compare when cities are in the same hemisphere. It would be cool if there was an option to align the seasons when comparing cities in different hemispheres.

Nice observation ;-) If I'm reading the underlying data[0] correctly, it looks like the threshold for DEHT is significantly lower in the Vanilla tests (<4,500ng) vs the Strawberry tests (<22,500ng)

Edit: I guess that should impact the Substitutes category, though, and not the Phthalates category.

> Smartphones, with screens, are not going away because people have plenty of uses for screens from photos to videos to texting, etc.
I agree but for the sake of discussion: could smart glasses fill this role?

I don’t disagree with anything you said and I don’t think anything you said disagrees with my original comment :)
I actually said in my comment that exploring a new language is one area I find LLMs to be interesting.
Comment · 1 year ago
My experience so far has been: if I know what I want well enough to explain it to an LLM then it’s been easier for me to just write the code. Iterating on prompts, reading and understanding the LLM’s code, validating that it works and fixing bugs is still time consuming.
It has been interesting as a rubber duck, exploring a new topic or language, some code golf, but so far not for production code for me.

Congrats on the launch!
Could a Regatta filesystem offer any advantage over ClickHouse's built-in S3 and local disk caching features in terms of cost or performance?

> I've found no other mention of this on the internet
Here's one! (different character, but same issue it seems?)

> and I'd love to to hunt this down and fix it but have no clue where to start. I guess the first step would be to consistently reproduce the bug...
I am not familiar with Chromium at all, and I also don't run Linux on the desktop as I'm guessing from your video you do (?) so take this with a grain of salt...
I would start looking at the focus and key event handlers. e.g. maybe log the contents of pressed_keys and/or step thru the code from the beginning of the focus handler. It looks like this might be the place:
https://github.com/chromium/chromium/blob/01ab59ae08a38a361d...
https://github.com/chromium/chromium/blob/de351fd416ec36beeb...
Even if you can't repro it, you may be able to figure out the issue by just reading thru that code with some theories in mind. e.g. Since pressing another key seems to fix it, maybe look at what the code is doing there... my guess is the release event fixes whatever corrupted state it is in upon focus.

Yes I love seeing < in my database. Every time I see it I think oh boy how many cycles will I save when I display this in HTML!
