I just run into this issue with claude sonet 4.5, asked it to copy/paste some constants from one file to another, a bigger chunk of code, it instead "extracted" pieces and named them so. As a last resort, after going back and forth it agreed to do a file/copy by running a system command. I was surprised that of all the programming tasks, a copy/paste felt challenging for the agent.


I guess the LLMs are trained to know what finished code looks like. They don't really know the operations a human would use to get there.


I was looking for this one feature listing: fast file deletes, guess that’s just how windows rolls


You can't really beat the NTFS API being horribly slow.

Well, maybe you could, just as "Everything" file search achieves speed by bypassing the API entirely, but I think an application that wrote raw NTFS block writes would be rather high risk for most people to use.


Simulating Daylight isn't very easy, especially not with LED diods. https://vgl.ict.usc.edu/Research/OptimalLED/ There was a lot of research in covering the daylight spectra by adding additional LED diods to get close to daylight. Coming from a filmset background, usually strong metal Halide lights are used only to simulate a daylight scene, for example the arri daylight 18, which is using a Metal Halide 18000 Watt bulb.Attached outside of windows. Furthermore light sources (except for lasers) drop intensity quadratically, meaning the size of your room is a big factor. Talking about LED's, even on shoot's like the "mandalorian" where the main light source is a LED-WALL, the light isn't enough so that additional Studio lighting is added.


Wow, I’ve never wanted a bill of materials for a conference paper before.

Have you seen anyone successfully build a RGBW+Amber array that matches their results?


It’s very domain specific. We log everything, no one looks at it, but when things go south that’s when we do the investigative work. I say “log everything” you might need it later


Same here. I have had plenty of cases where the logs allowed diagnosing incredibly difficult problems.


It can start as an open source project and can end up goverment-funded.


To get extended functionality, you need to sign-up for a Premium account. This tool need's to be more open in first place as 'fully functional' before it can attract people to sign up for premium account.

The 'collaboration' aspect isn't what will sell this product. It could have potential when they allow creator's and designers to fully explore it first.


that worked.
