I disagree. A chess engine has a very well defined goal and is working its patterns to reach that goal.

In software development, except in a minority of cases, the goal is being set by non-technical people, who have no clue how the resulting system should end up, only what it should look like to a user. I think a well-versed programmer can give the AI direct instructions on how to implement something, and just let the LLM write the code to implement/refactor the infrastructure behind the feature they're developing. For me the plan mode of Claude Code is (anecdote incoming) much faster(TM) and better(TM) if I give it concrete instructions - then it writes the plan, asks questions - and then implements it. Very little complaints after that (I usually don't let Claude do any sort of visual QA)

Damn, I did not know you need a VM for Docker on macOS. That's kind of ironic, isn't it XD

Every day I wake up and thank the universe for MS making WSL2

WSL2 is also a virtual machine.

WSL2 is also a VM. docker relies on the linux kernel apis, so it must be ran inside a linux VM on macos or windows

Windows does have a native sandboxing API that Docker is capable of using IIRC, but nobody uses it.

The macOS situation is even worse in that the kernel lacks the requisite capabilities.

Isn’t WSL2 vm based?

I know it is Meta-owned and is just as algorithmic, but Threads is a breath of fresh air in terms of access - the website is pratically the same in terms of UX as the app, and it does not require an account to browse at all. Just thought it'd be worth mentioning.

I assume only because Meta have forgotten about it or haven't got around to closing it down yet.

Nah, it's just the standard enshitification playbook. It'll start out nice, open, useful, fun; then once they have enough users and the network effect kicks in, they'll lock it down and turn it into a weapon against its users. Happens every time.

Actually, the correct solution is Mastodon, which is an open protocol which can not become a walled garden the way Threads (based on Meta’s activity with Instagram and Facebook) will inevitably become a walled garden.

You gotta build the garden before you build the walls.

The LLM they used to create this does not care for loading bars XD

It says 'Apple Inc' in the bottom left, and there's a link to the Apple Maps T&Cs.

Honestly, Resolve isn't that difficult, especially if you're OK with watching some tutorials to get used to it. It's certainly no more difficult than Premiere (for basic tasks, of course).

I teach those programs (after working with them for years as a freelance editor/colorist).

Resolve is worth learning, and not that hard, you're right. But Resolve is not a "pick it up and it pretty much explains itself" software either.
