Why'd you make a new account? Why not tie these opinions to your main?


Not even close. Not yet at least. AI is definitely helping with menial coding tasks, but the more complex stuff is still best left to the human in the loop. And the HitL is still needed to make sure the basic stuff is done well.

This is pretty interesting, I know Boris likes to work with multiple Claude Code instances open at once having them crank away on stuff simultaneously. This sounds like taking his workflow of spawning multiple instances and making it a built in feature.

Does your free tier do too much making upgrading to a paid plan not worth it?

Good question. So one change I made last year was to cap the number of queues the free account could utilize. It's sort of hard to know for certain if that was what moved the needle though.

There has been a suggestion that maybe the free plan could just be a time-limited trial instead.

But it feels like there is some risk associated with that - as often a customer will use the free plan for (eg) six months, before hitting the limits and becoming a paid account.


I sysadmin my kids' PTA website. OpenAI was scraping it recently. I saw it looking at the event calendar, request after request to random days. I saw years 1000 through 3000 scroll by. I changed the response to their user agent to an access denied, but it still took about 4 hours for them to stop.


I wonder who wrote a crawler like that. Oh wait ...


I can't follow your thought there. Who wrote it?

Inferring, an LLM

This article is 95% about chokeholds, and is titled as such, but OP chose to pick out one sentence at the end to editorialize the post title with. None of the content of the article is rosy and it should be shared far and wide, but I was under the impressions post titles should match the headlines or at least the general topic of the linked item?


It's tricky. Because it's both. The speed at which the text appears decreases, but the time the loader spins increases. OP should have broken these into two separate thoughts, but chose to combine them and words got wonky.


Exactly, I made a mistake when writing it down. Thanks to the original commenter for catching it and for your suggestion!

I’ve now updated it to: "As you go through the story, the time the loader spins increases while the speed at which the text appears decreases"


At what point does it start chanting "when you hear a bell, you'll think you're a duck."


Feel free to send a PR! But let's parametrize the animal :)


So, about as useful as a teenager. Source: I was a teenager once.


Less useful than a teenager. A teenager today would just look at their weather app and tell you the answer.


So if I make a website that uses Nginx, Ruby, and Postgres, does that mean that I don't get credit for making it since I use other tools?


No, I just brought attention to the stack because it's not "sexy".
