@TrisH0x2A Those memory-saving skills are still useful. I had a job that was blowing up a machine that had a quarter of a terabyte of RAM. It was a .net app, and my knowledge of .net and Windows internals saved 100GB on that job, allowing it to actually finish.
Depends on the project. I don't disagree. For the line of business apps I've worked on, I *had* a lower environment, but typically sent things to it and prod simultaneously. But now I work for a bank and there are severe consequences (regulatory penalties and/or criminal charges) for messing up, so we have to have a lower environment so multiple teams can sign off before it goes to prod.
@neogoose_btw Cory is good people and, by calling him out like this, you're making yourself look foolish.
Your question presupposes that "build trillion dollar company" is the only logical endgame. It's not. You can have personal satisfaction and happiness without being a Bezos.
@IonaItalia@justalexoki I was wondering how this thread wound up in my feed, and then here comes my favorite I-have-no-idea-how-to-pronounce-her-first-name twitterer 🤣
@housecor I usually ask it BEFORE I move onto the next thing. "This is basically what I'm gonna do, should I do it in this context or start a new one." Codex is about 50/50 on telling me when to split.
@unclebobmartin@garybernhardt As someone who has recently gotten used to being the "old guy" on the team, I am flabbergasted that you started doing this 5 years before I was born 🤣
@ShawnWildermuth Maybe. I've been experimenting with this: just letting the agent create simple DTOs and populating them directly with SQL queries via Dapper. No layer between the caller that needs the data and the SQL. Uses fewer tokens, easier for me to find stuff if I have to dig manually.
Konstantin does not deny the West's past sins. His point is that today Western societies have the most morally advanced values and institutions on Earth. They corrected historical evils like slavery, extended rights to everyone, and built the freest and most tolerant societies in history. Pointing to past horrors does not refute this. It simply dodges the comparison that matters now. "Where would you rather live?" is the ultimate empirical test. Your thread never names a single current society that is morally superior for a Black woman (or anyone) in terms of safety, opportunity, legal equality, or tolerance. Because there isn't one that matches the West on the metrics that matter today.
@housecor@dizlexic Same. I find codex to be much better at making plans and architecture. Claude is better at implementing the plans. So I'm switching between both all the time.
@theo So, this is fun, but can you make T3 Code stop launching a visible console on Windows every 15 minutes when it launches, inexplicably, tzutil.exe? 🤣
Just last week I had to break it out to debug something that Claude wrote. When presented with all the inputs, Claude just couldn't find it. Turns out it was a race condition.
As an experiment, I turned Codex loose on it. It DID find the race condition after burning a half million tokens.
Yes, I did take this as a sign that it needed refactoring and more tests 🤣
@nicbarkeragain I haven't had an error like that since the 90s...but on that occasion, every programmer in the building was standing behind my staring at my screen trying to figure it out 🤣
@HSRdirector@SwiftOnSecurity Ladders have more warning labels per square inch than anything I've ever seen. And yet people still do stupid shit with them.
Find myself in the unique position of using @OpenAI support chatbot to talk to codex about a sandbox problem. If you guys are listening, using codex with the dotnet tool chain on Windows is a complete shit show. Hire me to help you fix it 🤣
