> I suppose the appeal of Jev is how cheap and fast it is Ok, so you do understand the hype. I mean cost & speed are reaaaaally big issues for normal LLMs. If you can fill a specific use case way cheaper and way faster, that’s a fant

I don’t understand. He’s absolutely guilty of violating the US government and probably a handful of laws. I will respect him forever for doing that. But I completely agree that any trial he’d participate in is A) not going to be fair, becau

Actually think that’s a good thing for Apple. Compare how much money companies have absolutely shoved into the AI race, and how much circular investment is happening. Apple is one of the few massive players which hasn’t massively extended t

The bigger challenge is that the mechanics of the day to day work have entirely changed. Mechanically, using C is similar to using JS. You’re tying and compiling and checking results, whatever. With an Agent what you actually do is comple

An eagle isn’t having a conversation with an eagle on the other side of the world about whether it should eat its prey because it’s sentient. It just eats it. I think that speaks to a moral superiority, in some ways. I’m not claiming humans

Why? People have created machines that can, at their core, regurgitate human knowledge. They do not have long-term memory, self-direction, self-improvement, emotion, etc. At their very best, we have harnesses that can bootstrap short-lived

I would not say $1-$2k/mo extra income counts as a huge amount richer. It’s like 58th percentile by family income. I don’t really think it makes sense to call solidly middle class income rich in any sense…

This is why I like to really interrogate Claude on what it’s planning to do, what the implementation will look like etc before writing code. Without enough direction and time thinking about it, it can definitely go in an unintended directio

On 5g, I’ll say this. I’m on a Verizon MVNO with a fairly recent iPhone Pro model in a major metro area. I frequently have to disable 5g and switch data to LTE to get any actual service, even when I have full bars of service. It’s highly

The problem with practically every climate denier out there is you only see things from a very narrow local perspective. Skipping horrible weather in one area doesn’t mean the rest of the world is ok. Climate scientists, in fact, predicted

I mean even for marine navigation, you use digital solutions now. But paper charts people would use before aren’t exactly zoomed out to show the whole world. So I feel like this whole world Mercator projection hasn’t been very relevant for

As someone who has a lot of experience with both… no. You don’t need to be smart to assembly furniture, you just need to follow directions very closely and get shit done.

How about this? LG builds many other home appliances like washers and driers. Some have apps and wifi. Why wouldn’t LG allow their devices to talk to each other locally, without needing to join a network? With private SSID or something like

But this is like the same as windows explorer right? It opens whatever view you used for the app (say, “recents”) and then you click something in the sidebar to go to the “real” filesystem?
