To me, this is exactly what LLMs are good for. It would be exhausting double checking for valid citations in a research paper. Fuzzy comparison and rote lookup seem primed for usage with LLMs. Writing academic papers is exactly the _wrong_

They're starting to up their quality. Frankenstein and Death by Lightning were two standout successes recently. That said, I'm more uncomfortable with the continued consolidation of media ownership and more outsize influence of FA

I think it's more about enforcing having easy mechanisms to opt out, which seem to be absent with regards to AI integration. It's better to assume good faith when providing a counter argument.

Had the same issue switching to cursor. Cmd + k multiple selection skip is now no longer the key map. Drives me fucking nuts.

Oh, now I have a name for the epidemic pervasive through our company. Almost all of the tech debt we have was introduced by leadership guidance to ignore. And all additional debt to manage it or ameliorate it (since problems don't just

I would be willing to bet the current administration would in fact do whatever they could to undermine the dollar's value, including propping up a digital currency when it should fail.

I think OP is sitting on some other product here that he hasn't figured out yet. It definitely isn't in the high-end luxury retail space, but it might be in B2C, think Home assistant or something akin.

Not trying to "gotcha" here, but are you using AI to converse?

How can we get away from this mindset as a society, where craft and art are sacrificed at the altar of "it's not monetarily worth it." There's a fucking lot of things that are not worth it monetarily, but worth it for th

One thing is not the other. A corporation is not a human (and no I don't care what Citizens United says). A corporation has no inherent rights.

I'm having a hard time following the through line on these first principles. Likely it's just a "me" problem because I have status quo system designs set in my head, but here are some ideas that seem conflicting to me: &

No one is "putting up with it." We don't have a choice. The way our government is designed right now, the populace doesn't really have elected representatives. More accurately, they have a corporate bought-and-paid for s

Their editorial department is an embarrassment imo. Sycophancy for conservatism thinly veiled as intellectualism.

You're talking about currency formatting while they are talking about currency value. In essence, you're both correct. They are correct in that if you're displaying a currency value, you have to know which currency it is in,

As someone who loves their laptop, I couldn't disagree more. I would absolutely love a single device with that kind of flexibility.

I've yet to see any company show actual factual revenue increase from employing AI. So I doubt they have created the internal analysis structures to ensure what exactly they're using AI for.

I understand the need to frame arguments in an objective and clinical way. At the same time, it's frustrating because it just feels like being so distant emotionally doesn't drive deep enough into the way the current environment s

There is only one "side", and they're die-hard. The left is a rag-tag group of misfits who simply don't identify as conservative for one reason or another, which is part of the reason it's so hard for the democratic

I was so surprised in BotW and TotK to see NPCs duck, huddle, gasp and otherwise react to odd shit you might be doing. Also in dialogue, do contextual things like talk about the weather and time. I would love to see a Zelda game implement L

It feels like the difference between someone painstakingly brushing away eons of dirt and calcification on buried dino bones vs just picking them up off the ground. In the former, the research feels genuine and in the latter it feels hollow

Yeah they point to Chinese work culture but I think it probably resembles more Japanese work culture where you're just filling a seat until your boss leaves.

It's funny how the thankless jobs of quality assurance become so critical so quickly. And I mean that ironically of course. To folks out there: do the important work, not the glamorous work, and you'll not only sleep well, but you

Kindness is reciprocal, IMO. But I will concede speculation is unproductive.
