I'm all in the "brains cause minds" camp. But isn't the main argument here "We accept explanation gaps already in many places, why not also for consciousness?"? My objection would then be that actually, that&#x

I'm not so sure about "soon" - the big labs are profiting from the discovery and experimentation efforts by independent contributors (openclaw, etc) and reducing their capabilities also reduces input from this side.

Yes the peer assessments really did work. And yeah: Gamification became shallow real fast. Even the Gamification techniques in games! I think the reason is that everyone focused on adopting the easy part (checkboxes, achievements, levels) w

It could also be that It just shifts the burden from execution to strategy. It's not enough anymore to have someone push nice pixels for you. You'll need to consider if your design aligns with how you want to position yourself wrt

Yes (not patents in particular). The name is "law as code". (My impression: various approaches; mostly academic; some small companies in the space; judging from a loose assessment wrt my career choices as a freelancer: no real bus

Going to the US always feels weird: It's very nice on the surface but it underneath it all, there's always someone trying to extract value from you. At almost every little step. Simply enjoying life is guarded beyond a glass wall

SDD has no real track record. It's only a promise of a method. If you think it's waterfall again: Wrong. Everyone who phantasizes about "just"™ writing the perfect spec will be in for a rude awakening. The spec will chan

If this happened in Germany, this is most likely not only a breach of some contract but actually a criminal offense. (In not a lawyer and so I might be mistaken about this; Especially the level of intentionality might be a factor)

... And this entity is again owned by AWS. And so the cloud act still applies. > There would be no point spinning up a 'sovereign cloud' beholden to the US. Of course: It gives (both sides) a narrative that let's them pret

Not sure: The LLMs seem to be okay at coding recently but still horrible at requirements and interface design. They never seem to get the perspective right. One example I recently encountered: The LLM designed the client/consumer facin

Maybe it's a binary choice for the people who have to maintain it? You can scale down money. But you can't scale down commitment arbitrarily.

Serious question: If you take a BDD/TDD approach - do technologies like this still give you something? I've dabbled a bit into smth similar (SpacetimeDB) with the aim of creating a headless backend for a game. But then I realized

Simularly: LLMs are often confused about the perspective of a document.When iterating on a spec, they mix the actual spec with reporting updates of the spec to the user. Example: "The ABC now correctly does XYZ"
