Steve Jobs tried to make the reason for Apple’s success as explicitly clear as he could and the second he died Andreesen was like “fuck books”

The problem isn’t the looming obsolescence (not happening) it’s that the richest idiots in the universe believe it’s going to happen.

Like, it's not the technology that's bad, it's the lack of appreciation for the unique value of human spirit and intelligence. I'm not afraid of probabilistic inference, but I'm terrified that we're spending $300 billion this year alone on the theory that machines could possibly make humans obsolete

I quickly checked the contents and this free book looks great.

Especially if you enjoy coding DSA. So why not write them in OCaml!

All those non-devs parroting how GenAI is the end of software development don't do actual development. And esp not wit these tools.

I am pretty confident Meta will have no "AI engineer that will start contributing increasing amounts of code" beyond being a companion like today

I love that Kagi feels like it's built by actual people with actual interests (because it is!) and not just chasing trends to satisfy VCs.

We're excited to add a new section for comics on Kagi's Small Web initiatve: kagi.com/smallweb/?co...

The small web represents a return to the internet's roots - a space of personal expression, creativity, and community-driven content. Adding webcomics to this curation seemed natural.

It would be so-o-o cool if social media companies used ML to help me write alt-text on my images. I know Instagram generates its own descriptions but, like, let me edit it before publication!

So yeah I think I’m gonna rant about weird ceos, ai and software on here from time to time. I don’t think it’s healthy to keep this stuff inside.

That being said, here’s a picture of my dog to offset the negativity a little
