   The imperial system America uses is better optimized for quantities people expect to use in real life frequently without requiring awkward decimals or larger numbers etc. better ergonomics. metric is only for science.

   I’m tired of Anthropic. They’re scared of everything. Release open weight models, no guard rails, no censors, straight to the public. Let everything else sort itself out. There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come.

   Our bodies could just be rocks on a beach, but whatever it is about us that is capable of observing the output of our own internal thinking (preventing us from just being p-zombies) is not contained within the beach.

   So let me get this straight, is the intent of this so that if you have some game like Call of Duty, you could use this to just add Mario running around in there jumping around like it was SM64?

   The PIN you enter determines what profile opens up, and they are not connected to each other at all, they are isolated.

   I don’t understand why phones can’t just have decoy profiles you can activate via PIN that look like regular harmless user profiles? Especially now with AI you can quickly populate with a bunch of plausible data. Or better, have PIN for tak

   All this proof automation. But still no P=NP.

   Someone should make a movie called “Postgres” which is about people living within a Postgres city, in the style of Se7en. “Every city has secrets. Ours have indexes.”

    In the future, it still won’t be. Google has vast product lines, AI is just a feature in them. They only need AI good enough to deliver value. Anthropic is basically nothing beyond Claude, and most average people do not give a shit about fr

    Google is not a good short. They are actually one of the companies that will likely come out on top when the AI-bubble has popped. Anthropic and OpenAI though will likely be dead, killed by cheap open weight LLMs and local LLMs.

    People joke about this, but we have actually had LLMs create compilers for our domain specific languages that lets us basically compile a bunch of code in a deterministic way for lots of varied use cases, and it has eliminated the need to a

    Pay to crawl is already here. The usage patterns of how people pay and use AI is basically the same model the web should be using: you pay a small bit of money to access monetized pages, just how you pay a small bit of money to get AI respo

    If they offer free flights to places people want to go they will not have any shortage of testers.

    But not all AI stuff is crap. There will come a day where some piece of AI content brings a smile to your lips before a tear to your eye.

    filmmakers have the most to gain here, now anyone with a good idea for a story can just prompt out their own full length movie or tv show.

    IMO it’s best to just stop worrying and embrace it as the end of days for the field. These are the last good ol’ days you will have before it’s all over. Worrying about it won’t change the future. Just try to focus on all the good AI does.

    I think almost anything you can build autonomously with a fully independent AI agent, you can build far better with the slow AI approach. It is a good trade off between the super fast agentic approach and the full manual approach, and leave

    While you are right that humans can probably find some original ideas that are not just combinations of inputs, the universe of things that humans will find interesting to read is not that vast, and that’s why there are only really like 7 t

    Google search still happens, it’s just your agent doing it.

    Should have done it in C++ with SDL3.

    Given all the automation you do, it sounds like you don't really manage people either.

    It really feels to me like this OpenClaw type stuff is the new "I built a static site generator!" type blogs that just post a few articles about how they built their generator.

    Good news about hell: it doesn't exist. Bad news: Humans can pretty much create whatever they can imagine.

    Now that Stack Overflow is mostly dead, what's the experience of asking a question there? Will you still get berated or are people chilled out?

    by deadbabe 3mo ago

    I still don't understand what these freaks are doing running these agents 24/7 on machines. What are they doing? Managing a todo list? You mean crossing items off as you complete them? Research tasks? To do what? Never really get

    And then when it’s done you just rip out that first page?

    No it isn’t. If you don’t care about stuff like security or user friendliness you can do most of what you want through simple shell scripts probably.

    AI as helper is basically a better google search, which is not much different than what we did before AI (copy paste from stack overflow)
