Very few people want to host/organize other people. The end goal of throwing parties shouldn’t be friendship or getting invited to other people parties, it’s building a large loose network of people you’re acquaintances/shallow fr

In the modern day, Korean culture is absolutely cooked. There is a reason their birth rates are so terrible. Talking to Koreans and consuming even just a little bit of media about Korea makes some of the problems pretty obvious.

If you are happy being a worker bee it's great. If you want to take on more responsibility and have a seat at the table, it feels like you're being treated with kiddy gloves. A lot of the kind of work the author mentions is done w

I believe this is utter fantasy. That kind of data is usually super messy. LLMs are terrible at disambiguating if something is useful vs harmful information. It's also unlikely that context windows will become unbounded to the point wh

Are you a native English speaker? "whiskers" is a common euphemism for a moustache. I would be very surprised if a native speaker didn't know that, or couldn't infer from context.

You keep avoiding the point. Yes, some companies aren’t trying to “win”, but what about the companies that are trying to “win”? It sounds like you’re implying they simply shouldn’t exist in Europe.

This feels like an orthogonal point. The OP make a very specific comparison to his travel company and Airbnb, and how people ignored them or even belittled them but adored Airbnb despite being very similar companies. Europeans use Airbnb. T

1) Debugging is much harder than writing code that works 2) AIs are demonstrably much, much worse at debugging code than writing fresh code Ex: "Oh, I see the problem! Let me fix that" -> proceeds to create a new bug while not

> The people who knew my value weren’t the people who could pay me This is the key part. You need to think about the money side as well as the skills side. I agree with the author though, despite regressed skills you can still be more

As a New Zealander, it seems like everywhere other than NZ the default is calling it a "kiwi" instead of "kiwifruit"

You can lie to TypeScript extremely easily in a way that you can't do in strongly typed languages.

Calling Sam Hyde's content "a comedy sketch I found on youtube" is beyond hilarious to me. If you liked that here's another quite famous clip: https://youtu.be/fDq_8y_drE8?si=MI4Dxtj1EtCgt1C3

You can think of it as "just how I'm wired" if that helps, but these things are tendencies not absolutes. I've been similarly harsh with myself in the past and now I do that less frequently with lower harshness even thou

You just ruled out 99% of humans from having reasoning capabilities. The beautiful thing about reasoning models is that there is no need to overcomplicate it with all the things you've mentioned, you can literally read the model's

It wasn't like that in this case. Rumours were it was because people in Germany were thinking of unionizing.

What I translate that to is: "Drizzle is top of mind for me". If they tried Drizzle and it was shit, they would likely look for something else.
