What is important or right today might not be tomorrow. The problem that you think today did not exist at the moment of decision. Even if you turn back time, you would likely do the same (unless with today knowledge). Why resent?
Yes, agree. At first I still use pyenv, or mise to manage python version, now that uv does that, uv is the only tool I need for everything in Python env.
Quite sad to see devs nowadays has lost abilities to self-host. I know it can be overwhelming with Linux, networking, db, backup, hardware load.... However, it's not rocket science!
I heard this opinion a lot recently. Codex is getting better, and Claude is getting worse so it's must happen sooner or later. Well, it's competition so waiting for Claude to catch up. The web Claude Code is good, but they really need to fix their quota. It's unusable. I would choose a worse model (maybe at 90%), but has better quota and usable. Not to mention GPT-5 and GPT-5-codex seems catch up or even better now.
Just surprised, as I thought building GUI app on Windows must be easy right, as must be libs/frameworks already available to support that? It's just not.
LLMs like GPT are heavy and costly (and BERT are LLMs too, params can up to like 1.5B). For niche problems like classification on a small domain, BERT like models are much better, cheaper. You don't need all knowledge gen AI LLM has. I have seen many companies using DeBERTa or RoBERTa for text classification, not using GPT/LLaMA.
I felt weird reading the titles too, because maybe 2-3 years ago I have downloaded with `curl`, so why this?
And also, I am pretty sure `wget` can do it and better too.
