well you see, in corporate (atleast in big tech), this is usually used as a justification to merge inefficient code (we will optimize it later). That later never comes, either the developers/management moves on or the work item never gets prioritized. That is until the bad software either causes outages or customer churn. Then it is fixed and shown as high impact in your next promo packet.


Supabase is inaccessible in India since the last 5 days. Government has given no reason for the blanket ban.


I highly doubt that. "The algorithm" will surely adjust the recommendations per geography. I don't think most westerners are getting T-Series recommendation in their feed as well.

> He's an Indian Lex Friedman (and I mean that derogatorily)

I might be reading this wrong, but sounds kinda racist to me?


The insult is that hes similar to Lex Fridman, not that hes Indian.


Yeah I also don't understand how he is able to get such high profile guests. His interview with Jeff Dean and Noam Shazeer last year[1] is so hilariously bad. Jeff and Noam kept trying to give really insightful answers on how they see AI development shaping in coming years and he was just steering the conversation to shallow and silly tabloid gossip (why don't you "just" let AI improve the next version in a loop so we can quickly have singularity, Jeff Dean AI running in a DC, evil Jeff Dean AI escaping containment and on and on). It was just embarrassing. The interview would have been so much better with just Jeff and Noam without him.

The classic defense used by cigarette companies historically. We are just rolling up some naturally growing leaves, leaves can't be addictive. Users are responsible for diseases and addiction. We don't target minors.


Would highly recommend Mint. Very stable, sensible defaults. Updates never broke anything in the past several years I have been using it on desktop and laptop. Just install the latest LTS version, turn on automatic updates and forget about it.


It is not available for linux in the download page despite the article saying otherwise.


They weren't supposed to do anything with our gmail data as well. That didn't stop them.

Read their TOS.


If it’s in the ToS, then it’s not true that “[they] weren't supposed to do anything with our gmail data”.


> Where I used to spend most of my time in Cursor, I now mostly use Claude Code, almost entirely hands-off. Do I program any faster? Not really. But it feels like I've gained 30% more time in my day because the machine is doing the work. I alternate between giving it instructions, reading a book, and reviewing the changes.

This is very interesting to me and I did not know that our current LLMs can do this. Does anyone has a live coding video/stream of this workflow to do some non trivial task successfully, like developing/merging a feature for some open-source project? There is so much crap around AI on youtube that I have just stopped engaging with that stuff and not sure who are producing genuine content and who is just selling their latest grift.
