For design tools and website builders tough times ahead. Wix for example lay down 20% of staff in some countries. All due to “optimization” with LLM.

Klankers will fix everything. Right?


So, klankers will fix it, clean it and make it? What will meat do?

Citroen and in general French concept designs was always on top of the line. Citroen GT!


The Citroen SM, which was essentially a concept that made it into production, is probably my favourite car design of all time.


Not sure about that, the mid 90 to early 2000s have been really poorly looking in my opinion


Do we still have a choice to not use?


You absolutely do not have to use the new financial feature. Its optional


Until every web site and bank requires you to use it because their CTO saw an ad in an airport that said it was a good idea and makes line go up.

"Leadership" today is monkey-see, monkey-do.

Does github degradation gives boost to gitlab?


For some reason I dislike Karpathy’s fanatism towards LLMs. I don’t know why.


Feels like disliking musician for fanaticism towards musical instruments.


I have the same feeling ever since his infamous LLM OS post


Probably just envy.


Obviously it is envy, and not scepticism over a guy who practically lives on Twitter and has unhinged[1] follower base.

That's a 404


Tool for everything does nothing really good.


~3% performance gains. I didn’t understood part about $this.


If the closure doesn't use $this (an instance of the current class) then it doesn't need to store a reference to it, which also skips the bookkeeping from the garbage collector.


In PHP, closures defined inside a class method automatically capture `$this`, which means the closure holds a reference to the entire object even if it never uses it. This prevents the object from being garbage collected and adds overhead. The optimization detects when `$this` isn't actually used and makes the closure static automatically, dropping that unnecessary reference.


Why postgre instead of classic mysql?


MySQL does not let you have transactional DDL statements (alter, create, index etc).

If you're building anything serious and your data integrity is important, use Postgres.

Postgres is much stricter, and always was. MySQL tried to introduce several strict modes to mitigate the problems that they had, but I would always recommend to use Postgres.


such apps should use sqlite. it's enough for this type of app.


Why mysql instead of postgres should be the right question nowadays.


MySQL or Postgres are the DB of choice if you want a managed database in the cloud.

Probably Postgres is there because you can use it as a queue (https://livebook.manning.com/book/just-use-postgres/chapter-...)


Postgres isn't a newcomer any more. For most projects that I see it's the default and the "classic" already.


Postgres is simply a battle proven technology.


Exactly. Thank you for choosing Postgres for this. Well done.
