I feel like we are seeing agentic coding tools morph into walled gardens with these acquisitions. Anthropic has restricted claude code usage while OpenAI has sort of let Codex fill the void. I am curious to see how this continues to evolve.

As a father of three, ages 4, 5.88, and 9 I can concur that the sleep deprivation doesn't improve much. Especially if they are neurodivergent.

I watched Alien: Earth recently and was admiring the TUIs everywhere. The show takes place in 2120 and they kept up the aesthetics of the original movies. A future full of synthetic humanoids and interstellar ships kept the TUI. I do not remember tablets being in the series, however even those seem to use a similar TUI.
I look forward to my great grandchildren rediscovering the TUI.

I poked around at the code and I like some of the concepts here. Introducing jinjapy as a jinja template with frontmatter allowing me to write python code is useful in some scenarios.
I got most excited about sqlorm (https://github.com/hyperflask/sqlorm). It is way too early to feel comfortable adopting this, but I really like the concepts. I use pydantic a lot, I would love to see the SQL as docstrings as a pydantic extension. I get tired of writing serializers everywhere and would prefer to have a single pydantic model to reference throughout my codebase. Primarily I use Django, but these days am using less and less of the framework batteries outside of the ORM.

As an autistic person with 3 kids with ASD, I get triggered by this bullshit nearly daily. I sincerely hope that whatever "reveal" they have planned does not further harm our ability to access the early interventions that my kids are benefiting from.

I was using Windsurf in Pycharm, until I switched to Claude Code / Gemini CLI last week. I am also finding that Copilot with Sonnet 4 is pretty on par to Windsurf.

I like to think of my interactions with an LLM like I'm explaining a request to a junior engineer or non engineering person. You have to be more verbose to someone who has zero context in order for them to execute a task correctly. The LLM only has the context you provided so they fail hard like a junior engineer would at a complicated task with no experience.

Yes, I am being very flippant. Sometimes we need to jest in order to digest reality.

Life is imitating too many dystopian books, movies, etc these days. I think we need to put an end to all creative works before the timeline becomes irrecoverably destroyed.

Very shameful IMHO.
The only relevance is the PDF format.

I'd settle for a device that just normalized the volume levels, but this would be even better!

So you mean a customer? Why do you want them to own it? Just open source it if you want to share without building a business.

I was surprised to read they don't expect atmospheric burnup and are targeting a splash down in the Indian Ocean. I really hope someone didn't mess up some mundane detail in their calculations.
