IMO, this is much better than the status quo. Most programmers are terrible about writing clean code with good comments. I would much prefer this style over unreadable mess (especially if it’s a language/framework I’m not comfortable with).

But of course, it’s not an either-or. Ideally, I agree LLMs would provide slightly fewer comments.


Your comment seems to suggest that having a preference towards certain personality types is inherently wrong.


Oh, a fellow If Books Could Kill podcast listener?

It's unfortunate that truth is so hard to come by these days.


Yes! That blend of information and humour is the only podcast format worth my time, to be honest.

There's another podcast with Michael Hobbes called Maintenance Phase that I also enjoy when I have time to listen to it. Fen-phen in particular was something I hadn't really heard of before and reading about it after their episode on it was just fascinating.


That was interesting. I also found Haidt’s response:

Thank you for posting this link, because I am a happy sway user and didn’t realize this existed. I plan to try it out. Have you used it?


I (the author) have been using it for several months now and haven't really experienced any dissatisfaction.


No, I'm a GNOME/KDE user. It is written by a Debian colleague of mine.


I also went down this road recently, and discovered caddy-security, but I have security concerns [0]. Software always has vulnerabilities, but this was enough to scare me off. Something like keycloak or authentia seems more tested and secure.

> Software always has vulnerabilities

Yeah, that's an unfortunate reality, but

> The caddy-security plugin maintainers confirmed that there were no near-term plans to act on the reported vulnerabilities.

Ouch. That's a red flag, thanks for pointing it out. I guess it's time to check out Authelia (I think that's what you meant by authentia?).


> Aerosolization of viruses via toilet flushing may be more impactful, compared with aerosolization of bacteria, given differences in response to humidity and in droplet size. Various studies have indicated that viruses retain viability at both low or high relative humidities and, therefore can remain infectious in droplet nuclei and other aerosols, which may stay suspended in the air for hours to days. Also, viruses are likely to aerosolize more easily than bacteria and 94% of virus has been shown to partition into liquid phase rather than solid phase.


How do you use GLT-4 frequently with how low the usage cap is?


Wow, this is really cool. The pricing is way above my budget, but I can see the market for a premium device like this- if it really does what it looks like it does. The “point and tell” demo is particularly amazing.

Great homepage, by the way- makes it very easy to tell what the robot can do (and I appreciated the FAQ).

The $75/month ($900/year) price tag is quite steep, but between the feature set, the intelligence built into the device, and the free repairs and replacements, I think this provides a lot of value for homeowners. I subscribed to your email list. Good luck!
