  1. Playing two Steam games simultaneously typically results in a logout from the second (offending) PC.
  2. > Microsoft licensing rules mean that you are not allowed to hide Windows.

    What do you mean? As in - manufacturers can't create an overlay similar to Steam Deck's "Gaming Mode"?

  3. My first job did IRL code reviews with at least two senior devs in the loop. It was both devastating and extremely helpful.
  4. Ah fair enough.
  5. Yeah, I'm calling bullshit as well. The OP responds but doesn't seem to acknowledge that --dangerously-skip-permissions is a thing.
  6. Do skills get access to the current context or are they a blank slate?
  7. > which presumably hasn't done a fresh pre-training over the web

    What makes you think that?

    > Did they figure out how to do more incremental knowledge updates somehow?

    It's simple. You take the existing model and continue pretraining with newly collected data.

  8. GPT 4o was an MoE model as well.
  9. > it is really hard to look at for me.

    What were you expecting?

  10. Somehow I suspect Claude Code (in an interactive session with trial, error, probing, critiquing, perusing, and all the other benefits you get) would do better. This example seems to assume Claude can do things in "one shot" (even the later attempts all seem to conceal information like it's a homework assignment).

    That's not how to successfully use LLM's for coding in my experience. It is however perhaps a good demonstration of Claude's poor spatial reasoning skills. Another good demonstration of this is the twitch.tv/ClaudePlaysPokemon where Claude has been failing to beat pokemon for months now.

  11. Not arguing with any of that, just stating plainly that there are practical reasons for time limits and one of the many reasons is that tests are done supervised and thus must have _some_ sort of time limit. Everything else is you projecting an argument onto me that I didn't make.
  12. > Why?

    Teachers have lives, including needing to eat and sleep.

  13. Realistically there has to be _some_ time limit. No one is going to sit in a room for 10 hours while you finish your test.
  14. It has no idea what it's own knowledge cutoff is.
  15. I'm confused. This just seems like feel-good bullshit advice that only works for people in extremely good circumstances.

    There's a false equivalence between -

    “All it takes is for one to work out.”

    and the following:

    - "You don’t need every job to choose you. You just need the one that’s the right fit."

    - "You don’t need every house to accept your offer. You just need the one that feels like home. "

    The latter assumes that _every_ attempt you make has a chance at being "the right fit", "the one that feels like home". That is not the way things works for 99% of us.

  16. Silence says it all.
  17. I’d love to follow your work. Got a GitHub?
