After a short era in which people questioned the value of academia in ML, its value is more obvious than ever. Big labs stopped publishing the minute commercial incentives showed up and are relentlessly focused on a singular vision of scaling. Academia is a meaningful complement, bringing...

When a product is simple to use, it’s typically quite difficult behind the scenes — attention to detail, getting all the corner cases right, high quality, managing contingencies.
But hard for competitors to replicate, and awesome for customers.

What do you use for macOS + iOS app metrics and telemetry? Preferably self-hosted? I've been trying @telemetrydeck.com but I'm still looking around #macos #ios #swiftui #swift #buildinpublic

I've chosen to avoid this wave of AI altogether. I'm not interested in becoming one with the machine. If they are willing to spend time and money training artificial intelligence, why wouldn't I do the same for the real thing.

the idea that there is only one way to do something is a ruse to make you stop trying to find your own way. when in doubt, risk failing in order to hoe your own path.

“Why don’t I have a garden?”
“Did you plant seeds?”
“Many!”
“Did you water the seeds?”
“No, I was too busy planting more seeds.”

Here is why I consider AI agents nothing more than software. I'm talking specifically about the pieces of software that do things in a pipeline to complete a task. Let's take booking a flight to Vancouver as an example task.
