One pattern I find useful for working with LLMs is a nice long ramble session. Sometimes the LLM needs more bits to understand what you're trying to achieve, but you're too lazy to type them. In these cases I like to lean back, switch to /voice and just ramble for like 10 minutes, total mess, anything goes, full stream of consciousness. Sometimes I declare it up top, something like "switching to speech recognition sorry for any typos...". Sometimes I turn it into a small interview of a few turns. But I find that the LLMs are somehow very good at reconstructing long incoherent rambles and often their echo of your own tangle of thoughts comes out quite a bit cleaner than what you started with. The result is that you improve the mind meld and have to correct things less from that point on.
I worked at Redis till 2020, so the irrelevancy phase was just from 2020 to 2024 (when I rejoined). Also I'm older now. Please could you fix, without the help of AI, your graph to reflect the current time line? Also you may want enjoy my Vector Sets implementation. It is hand-written, a few months ago, and is one of the best HNSW implementations out there.
GPU programming is so cool!
You need 600 lines of code to add 2 numbers.
You don't have traditional stepping debugger, instead you have validation layers and renderdoc.
GPUs don't have branch predictors and are heavily parallel, so you really don't want if conditions.
It's basically like getting into programming all over again.
My head hurts, but like in a good way. I'm learning!

this form of human-computer interaction is literally my childhood dream coming true. the reason why i started coding two decades ago. this is magic, i'll never get used to it
@ingoa_dev@antigravity It seems right now it is free for everyone with 'generous rate limits,' as they say. The error you're encountering, I guess, is due to the fact that right now everyone is trying Antigravity and Gemini 3 Pro.
@lucaviscardi Luca una domanda di curiosità e assolutamente non di critica: è corretto usare il termine reazionario in questo caso? Non significa l'opposto del concetto che volevi esprimere?
