Pydantic and uv (and ruff!) are amazing.
Pro Tip: Pass a Pydantic model to the OpenAI package with JSON mode to get structured data in your response. :)

Congrats to the Astral team! uv is awesome.
uv is one year old today. Hard to believe its only been a year. The growth, adoption, and impact surpassed my wildest expectations.
Happy birthday, uv! 🥳

Regex-based #chess? Sure, why not. Nicholas Carlini stitches 84,688 regex snippets into a 2-ply minimax engine. Pure #hacker whimsy at its finest.
Regex Chess: A 2-ply minimax chess engine in 84,688 regular expressions
I wrote a (list of) regular expressions that will play a (not very good) chess game by running a 2-ply minimax search.

Fascinating to see a systematic approach using system safety and control theory by Google #SRE. An approach like this is needed with sufficiently complex systems to help prevent and mitigate complex failures.

Turns out, at least in this experiment, telling an #LLM to write better code actually helps. (Also, perhaps a rare time Betteridge's Law is disobeyed.)
Can LLMs write better code if you keep asking them to “write better code”?
Most coders want AI to write code faster: I want AI to write FASTER CODE.
