The risks mentioned are not equal. I’d prefer getting locked out of my account to having all my money stolen.

I lived a block away from where he crashed. It’s immediately next to the Santa Monica airport. I saw his mangled plane after the crash. Yes, I suspect he picked the Penmar golf course because it was a safe option, but it’s also under the flight path of the airport.

Yes, but does a computer system or tool or AI need to be provably correct or 100% guaranteed not to cause harm to be useful? Alternative methods (human, simple rules) aren’t either. Perfect can be the enemy of good enough. Just being pragmatic here.

Warning: if you increase the steps per frame it will break your phone. At least with my iPhone and Safari it stalls the entire phone.

I used them in high school in the late 1990s... just to get an extra challenge. I had my dad's and grandfather's and I picked up a couple at garage sales. I still have a collection, but haven't really used them in years. I'll probably break them out again when my kids get in middle school / high school math for fun. They are great for learning the rules of logs.

My sentiments exactly. All the formats were so poorly read that they are all effectively useless.

The momentum behind vibe coding is driven by an underestimation/misunderstanding of what it takes to build software.

So much about this seems inauthentic. The post itself. The experience. The content produced. I wouldn’t like to be on the other end of the production of this content.

So is using an LLM to write SQL for you like using a mitre saw instead of a table saw? I guess the crux is that you still need to do work either way.

We have Woom bikes. This is exactly what they recommend. Each of my three kids learned at different speeds, though. It basically turns your pedal bike into a strider bike.

I lived there between 2004 and 2023 and used to walk along the perimeter of the protected dunes. I didn’t know it was an intentional engineering. I thought it was just natural dunes that were protected. They are really beautiful and you get a sense that there’s a lot of life going on. I always wondered why Santa Monica’s beaches were so barren otherwise compared to other beaches on both the West and East coasts. Good read!

This usually means the military.

This is disappointing. I thought Boar’s Head was the high quality stuff.
