Last year I was trying out cars for a new purchase and was excited to try out the Subaru Outback. After one drive I decided I would never buy a Subaru because of their software. Lots of annoying noises, ugly, and no physical buttons. It was terrible.
Whether we like it or not, coding is now about how you can leverage Claude/OpenAI/Gemini to do the work for you. If you don't have these skills I would focus some effort there. Are you familiar with how to use agent skills, parallelizing agent work, creating plans, etc.?
With agents it is also much easier to build out some hobby projects. These can look great on a resume and provide some talking points in an interview. Worth looking through the Who's Hiring posts here on HN to see what employers are currently looking for and try to tailor your submissions towards these needs.
We're building https://brooked.io/. In the same way that Cursor provides a lot of features on top of the base agents, we want to do the same for spreadsheets. There are many workflows that benefit from having an agent available - resolving cell values from a prompt, writing functions, sheet insights, alerting, debugging.
You could argue that what you built isn't novel or complex in any way -- (politely) it's basically a clone of hundreds of other SAAS homepages. i.e. its a perfect use-case for AI.
Perhaps the results would be different if you had a specific novel design or interaction in mind, and you wanted the AI to implement that exactly as you wanted.
It’s funny how there are a bunch of responses to this post all showing off their great AI designs that are literally the same thing with different (each horrible) color palettes.
It's really weird. I don't even care if they used AI as part of their development process. But most AI™ developed stuff is just so insanely soulless crap I can instantly can tell and instinctively close the tab.
If you're AI developed software was so great, I couldn't tell it's AI.
Like I cannot wrap my head around how anyone vibe slops and think "No, this is good. I will now proudly show this off."
I'm guessing the third word is "directly“? The D is cut off. And the grammar is wrong, should be "in your spreadsheets" - maybe that is another letter cut off?
Anecdotal, but I'm extremely disappointed with my Hyundai Tucson purchase. It's the first car I've owned. The drive train is gone on it and the mechanic says it's a common issue. Only 140k on it, 2019. It's hard to believe I paid so much for it and got so little use.
140,000 miles is a lot of use in 7 years. "expected" design life of cars can be 10yrs/100,000 miles. Sorry to hear about your drivetrain issues. I don't know about the Tucson in particular, but many manufacturers are lying about the transmissions having "lifetime" fluid when the transmission manufacturers themselves recommend fluid changes around 60-80k. But if you don't change it, yes technically the car will make it to 100k, but then no shop will touch the transmission fluid for fear of wrecking it.
I’ve reviewed stacked PRs a couple of times and found it pretty terrible. The only one that ends up making any sense is the first. Better off with either just one single big PR, or don’t ask anyone to look at the next PR until the first one is merged.
Disagree. Gukesh was constantly putting pressure on Ding to find defensive moves and Ding finally made a mistake. The fact that it happened when it did just makes it even more dramatic. We know from the other matches that Ding is capable of finding them, and the fact that he didn't just highlights that they're both human, both under extreme pressure and that it's not just mindless computation.
I'm not sure we disagree at all. Gukesh's strategy throughout the match was to constantly ask difficult questions and the surprise really was that Ding didn't fold earlier.
Because as a chess fan and just as a human being my heart goes out to Ding Liren who seems like a genuinely likeable and nice human being who has been open about the tremendous struggle he has had with mental health etc since winning the world championships. To pull himself out of a hole that deep and play really great chess for 13 and 9/10s matches and then lose it with a blunder at the last second is awful.
And I say that as 100% someone who wanted Gukesh to win from the beginning, which is a result I think is great for chess and I think is “objectively correct” in the sense that he has played better chess and has been (apart from Magnus Carlsen and his compatriot Arjun Erigaisi who is also a complete monster) the story of the chess world for the last year.
Because the ending was pretty meh. All this excitement, and then Ding just flubs up an end game that most super gm's should be able to draw against stockfish.
The best finale's are often when two players at their best duke it out, and one comes out on top. This was simply not Ding's best.
Can a bear be blamed for murder? Somewhere in between the two is where AI models currently are, and they’re going to continue getting closer to the bear scenario.
