I've always thought that it'd be cool to build my own cryptocurrency, so I built $MNE from scratch to put to test whatever I learnt about blockchain development.

Right. Dario was already claiming that GPT2 was too dangerous to open source back in 2019.
I made fun of them then.
Everyone should make fun of them now.

Ouch
so... I audited Garry's website after he bragged about 37K LOC/day and a 72-day shipping streak.
here's what 78,400 lines of AI slop code actually looks like in production.

Tech for good
In 2020, we did something very odd. Well, K (Kailash, CTO) did. He helped open-source Alar, a Kannada–English dictionary. It's a little absurd, considering we're a stockbroking company, but the project itself is one of monumental importance.
The story of how Alar came to be is even more inspiring. It was essentially the life's work of one man: V. Krishna.
Alar is the online version of what he had built over 40 years—researching, writing, and cataloguing more than 150,000 Kannada words and 240,000 English definitions, complete with all their attendant details. Just thinking about someone spending four decades relentlessly pursuing one single project is beyond inspiring. Oh, and he is still working on adding to the corpus. That @zerodha had even a small role to play in this is deeply gratifying.
It has now been five years since Alar launched, and over two lakh people visit it every month. It also just received a major update, faster than ever. And K has been working on improving dictpress, the underlying open-source technology that powers the creation of online dictionaries includng Alar.
So if, by any chance, you're obsessed with languages and dictionaries and have been wondering how to build one online, you should definitely check it out. (link in comments)

28 months in to 6 months from AI taking your jobs
* 4 months into 24 months until cursor is obsolete
* 6 months into 6 months until ai writes 90% of your code (part 2, the codening)
Alla vill till himmelen men få vill ju dö
Man vill kamma in vinningen, men sår inga frön
Man vill ha sin bit av kakan & man vill äta den me
Folk vill ta tillbaka, men vägrar att ge

Btw for anyone saying AI can replace engineers or will replace engineers soon.
If it could, this person would have aced their full-remote job! Instead, they struggled when it came to getting stuff done.
Food for thought on what this actually means in where we are
I'm genuinely impressed

Will need some edits but great work overall!

This is going to be interesting! If they build it in a way to lower memory usage, that will be a game-changer
Today we're thrilled to announce our effort to port the TypeScript compiler and language service to native code, gaining a 10x speed boost in build times and editor responsiveness!
