courage & leverage

@ifeanyi_we @ibuildthecloud the misguided revulsion toward oop [as if it's inherently flawed] is pretty pervasive

the runtimes of these langs are all turing machines at the end of the day and can execute programs written in oop, functional, procedural, or whatever pattern you want

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@scaling01 barely enough for a proper bunker

@Yuchenj_UW Anthropic's problem was not quantity of GPUs/TPUs, it turned out to be 2 things:

- poor developer relations
- hardcore leftist-ctrl worldview of their ceo

@iximiuz it's always egress that compound cloud bills

maybe switch to protobuf instead of json or other text formats for data transfers

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@shadcn currently using notepad for this, stored in a git-ignored ".scratch" dir

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@thsottiaux You shouldn't have to select an agent env bcos there's the risk to mess up config.toml. Based on the `pwd` of the repo, the env should be inferred and provisioned

[dax @thdxr]

i have seen enough proof now that using a coding agent is a deep skill

it's confusing because the people you see heavily using them produce horrible results

but that's because it's a skill! you can get better and the ceiling seems pretty high - this is very exciting to me

@verymidengineer @davidcrawshaw @mitchellh on a plane, switch to your local ai infra and pipe in the relevant context from the high octane llms

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@mitchellh @doctorscm Hopefully the elite ones find a way to spend the time in rabbit holes figuring things out for themselves like their ancestors did regardless of the new technology on the block

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@mitchellh @doctorscm maybe they were not s-tier to start with...so nothing to worry about

AI accelerates everything including pre-ai "skill issues"

@James_M_South Quite good for code reviews when you specify the review session to use sonnet 4.6 but I think the code review functionality leverages my account-wide custom instructions heavily so ymmv

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

Switching to WSL is really messy. At installation time, prompt the user to choose the agent env and then provision that so we don't end up with Win11 filesystem paths inside /home/user/.codex/config.toml when switching post-installation on the WSL side [or come up with a better implementation]

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@ibuildthecloud @davidfowl don't know the full context but you could potentially fire up wsl and run directly from there

[Alexandre Mutel @xoofx]

Finally! `unsafe` becomes safer! 😊

@isa2001m 👍

@GergelyOrosz @dodyg personally dont use LLMs to inflate or maintain any preconceived bubbles

use it like @antirez uses it

[Julien Couvreur @jcouv]

We merged an early C# 15 preview feature into .NET 11 preview 5: closed class hierarchies.

Allows a `closed` modifier on a `class` declaration.
A `closed` class prevents direct inheritance from other assemblies, so pattern matching can treat its derived types as a complete set.

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@_Felipe C# is more forgiving bcos familiar patterns like async/await is widespread in training data, so agents generate functional code faster for typical runtime scenarios

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@thsottiaux @southphxceleb Or support what cursor does – allow the possibility to reference chats

[Dexter @dexcompiler]

@thsottiaux @steipete Awesome. Please bring back Pulse history. Just tried to access some really interesting ideas from 2 days ago and couldn't find it
