My salary is quite good, my friends in the field earn a bit less, but the gap is still there. To put things in perspective, according to this website[0], bus drivers earn ca. €20 per hour, within some quite limited margin. I don't know

I have a good job, most of my friends earn, say, 4x bus driver salary.

That's crazy, I misinterpreted just like others, that you pay a monthly but repairs are free. But on re-reading the terms, it turns out this is just pure bullshit. Why would anyone buy this "new iCare"?!

I use Claude Code overnight almost exclusively, it's simply not worth my time during the day. It's just easier to prepare precise instructions, let it run and check the results in the morning. If it goes awry (it usually does), I

I believe your case is not specific to Django ORM in particular but to the inherent complexity of various teams working together on a single project. For greenfield projects, you have a chance of splitting the codebase into packages with ea

Try saying that on LinkedIn and watch the reactions. There is a huge difference between what you can feel and do, and what you can say.

The "what killed most people" in general is meaningless as you can manipulate it in a way to support any statement. And yet, there is some truth in ascribing a lot of violent deaths to communist circumstances, at least in the last

It's a nice advertisement with quite a lot of opinions and wishful thinking presented as facts.

The prices are falling down. I do a lot of Machine Learning and sometimes work with large datasets. The ability to (1) put all data in VRAM and (2) have the results in hours/days instead of weeks is amazing - and in the past it wouldn&

To people from Cerebrium: why should I use your services when Runpod is cheaper? I mean, why did you decide to set your prices higher than an established company with significant user base?

Well, they are announcing their $8.5m seed round and hope to attract the maximum number of users by giving away $30 in credits.

It all started with Novell Netware. It was a great product and companies would buy it to have centralized management. Microsoft noticed this and decided to use their power position to drive Novell out of the market by offering a similar ser

I think it's actually this repo: https://github.com/artificial-scientist-lab/GWDetectorZoo/ Nothing remotely LLM-ish, but I'm glad they used the term AI here.

by benterix 1y ago
You are both right. Because the term "AI" is so vague and can mean so many things, it will be used and abused in various ways. For me, when someone says, "I'm working on AI", it's almost meaningless. What are y

What I learn form the article is that for the author, his career is extremely important. But for most people, work is just an aspect of life, not an end in itself. There is enough space in this world for both types.

Your comment applies to most of these articles. However, this one is a bit different. It is actually a niche product for specific devices, especially those that require decades of operation without recharging.

Right but are people are actually using it? Do they even want to use it? In my circles, AI is a synonym of slop, low value, something annoying that you need to deal around like ads.
