- TheRoqueEven that is true, it still doesn't make the west one block, and such title makes it believe so. There are no chip makers in Europe, so why even include it on the title ?
- Love how people (americans) are always framing it "China vs the west" or "Russia vs the West" when in reality it's just China vs the US. It's convenient and makes people think that the whole western world is allied and agrees with the US. While it's true in theory, the reality is much more nuanced than this.

"We will train new models using data from Free, Pro, and Max accounts when this setting is on (including when you use Claude Code from these accounts)."
- Just read the ToS of the LLM products please
- > it takes several months worth of effort and spits it out in a few hours
lol
- Especially if you factor-in the fact that the AI companies are losing money for now, and that it's not sustainable.
- But in the past, you knew the codebase very well, and it was trivial to implement a fix and upgrade the software. Can the same be done with LLMs ? Well from what I see, it depends on your luck. But if the LLMs can't help you, then you gotta read the whole codebase that you've never read before and you quickly lose the initial benefits. I don't doubt someday we'll get there though.
- uBlock is still as efficient if you're using Mozilla, blame the browser not the extension
- I'm curious as to why you are so excited ? What makes Ghostty so special ? (Especially compared to Kitty or Wezterm which I use)
- Check the prizes for the bug bounties in big smart contracts. The prizes are truly crazy, like Uniswap pays $15,000,000 for a critical vuln, and $1,000,000 for a high vuln. With that kind of money, I HIGHLY doubt there aren't people grinding against smart contracts as you say.
- True, I'd be curious to see if (and when) those contracts were compromised in the real world. Though they said they found 0 days, which implies some breaches were never found in the real world.
- Not sure what you mean that "input that X has happened". You don't directly input the changes, instead, you call a function that creates that state change (or not, if it's invalid), by running its code. This code can include checks on who is the caller, it can check if you're the contract owner, if you're someone who already interacted with the contract (by checking previous state), or any hardcoded address etc.
- They don't train on private repos, there has been no proof of that anyways
- > but not using AI is simply less productive
Some studies shows the opposite for experienced devs. And it also shows that developers are delusional about said productivity gains: https://metr.org/blog/2025-07-10-early-2025-ai-experienced-o...
If you have a counter-study (for experienced devs, not juniors), I'd be curious to see. My experience also has been that using AI as part of your main way to produce code, is not faster when you factor in everything.
- The other nightmare for these companies, is that any competitor can use their state of the art model for training another model. As some Chinese models are suspected to do. I personally think it's only fair, since those companies in the first place trained on a ton of data and nobody agreed to it. But it shows that training the frontier models have really low returns on investment
- My boss actually said that to me once. He said he really appreciated that I would say "I don't know" instead of bullshitting him. Of course I would also try to brainstorm with him or find the answer later on by searching.
- Might be worth to buy just for the parts
- Idk, something that needs arms and legs, and still a bit technical.
- Personally, I wonder if I should switch careers
- The backlog is here because they didn't care to fix it, because it wasn't that important and it's not what's causing the business to fail. That's not what's gonna drive employment.
