uv is the best tool out there as long as you have python only dependencies. It's really fast, and you can avoid using poetry, pipenv, etc. The only reason for conda to still exist is non pythonic dependencies, but that's another beast to tackle in itself.

IMO, Ben Thomson has great takes but this one is too over-indexed on the current SORA hype. Sure, a lot of people are downloading it and actively using it for creating videos/memes, but just like the Studio Ghibli phenomenon, interest will die down in a month or two.

The order in JIRA boards during the daily standups comes to mind. I am sure there are similar examples in other domains that are not software related.

Right on time as LLama 3 is released.

Exactly. It is very difficult to implement these data poisoning attacks in the wild due to the size of internet data in general.

In my opinion, there is still some relation between LoC and engineering output over a long period of time. Some of the greatest computer scientists and engineers have insane code outputs and I believe it does directly translate into impact in some ways. The issue is when Loc becomes a metric to measure performance. At that point, we have an instance of Goodhart's Law: “When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.”.

Hopefully, this leads to a future where ios is a similar platform to Mac OS or Windows. Both are general computing operating systems where you have access to an app store as well as the ability to download arbitrary software from the web.
