My comment was about how tolerance affects the way homelessness is viewed and addressed, nothing more nothing less.

Also in UK and AU English (and likely others) it’s the word for trashcan. Pray your office is free of folks who think bin puns are funny & original.

Sounds great! My hope is 2030 sees more organizations that are each smaller. It implies more services provided by the economy thanks to greater specialization. For example today, SaaS tools exist for so many things you’d have had to hire fo

Small suggestion - you can edit U.S. to US and gain 2 characters.

What I’ve observed is it becomes part of the job of the office admin person. So not zero headcount maybe 0.1 or 0.2 but that’s pretty good if the SaaS bill is another 0.2 headcount.

For everyone who thinks H-1B and its ilk make it possible to hire foreign workers at below what citizens are paid - have a look on your favorite search engine for: “Prevailing wage condition” It’s a requirement that’s part of the Labor Cond

You’re only thinking in the first order. In reality no-win scenarios are avoided by having so many cameras and such an overwhelming amount of data that Waymo would win in court instead. This is good for all as the incentive for maximum data

Claude and pasting code back and forth for simple things. But I’d like to try Claude with a few MCP servers so it can directly modify a repo. But lately Cursor. It’s just so effortless.

Seeing something once doesn’t make it a real phenomenon. Besides, if that is common, Waymo will have data on it and if it’s common enough, they’ll fix it. I’ve sat in Waymos on 2 occasions, each on a separate ride, in which the car avoided

My non physical desk job leaves me with a fresh body after my very much non 12 hour workday. Because I have the physical energy to, I take that body to the ocean for a swim, to the park for a cycle, and to anywhere with a nice view for a ru

One hundred per cent this. LLM pair programming is unbelievably fun, satisfying, and productive. Why type out the code when you can instead watch it being typed while thinking of and typing out/speaking the next thing you want. For tho

Maybe RIF-balancing is a better term. Fascinating that 2-3 probes per request is a sweet spot, intuitively it seems like a lot of overhead.

Whenever a “good enough” prototype can be created just from a prompt, it becomes possible to scrap it every time it’s not quite right and regenerate, instead of editing the code. Working this way, the prompt is the “source code” and the cod

Thankyou @gd3kr this is a really handy tool! Will use it next time I need 3D models. Just made a porcelain elephant to test it, it came out so cute!

In terms of the discussion detailed in the article let’s wait and see. It has to be a vastly superior alternative to make adding it worthwhile. On the more fun side, when I read the headline I instantly thought of making a side project that

I don’t think it’s fair to look at artefacts of a past era and compare them to today. The only things preserved are the ones deemed worthy of preservation. That leads to a skewed perspective.

While I agree with what you’re saying in the first order, what would actually happen is pretty predictable - an even more extreme version of what we’re seeing with scams, lost wallets, pump & dump schemes, fake ICOs and people taking ad

Missing from the complaint is “too much” churn. But then it’s boring and obvious. Too much employee churn is lethal to any company. Not a huge insight. But if we could somehow arrive at the answer to how much is too much, it’d be something

It’s simpler to say no than to answer the next questions of “how much better”. Because no matter the answer, I promise someone somewhere won’t like it.

True, but that’s made possible by the aggregator (the publisher who’s printed the magazine) This dream of eliminating that middle-person is still a dream.

Justice is subjective. What is a crime is subjective. Hence we have laws - an eternal, never perfect project to find an agreed definition of justice. Abandoning centuries of precedent of law happens in some places from time to time and they

As much as I hate to point it out, it’s not so simple. He had a legally enforceable mandate to maximize shareholder value. There’s some wiggle room in how that’s accomplished, but not as much as it seems from the outside. That does make him

There’s thousands of different tax regimes in the US - dozens to hundreds in every state, thanks to city taxes and the like. All businesses would need to advertise the right price everywhere. Doesn’t scale. It’d be neat to see a campaign to

Drivers will always want better pay & conditions. They lack the power to make demands, and bleeding out all over the media won't change a damn thing. They need to unionize.
