The current state does not feel malicious in this way to me at all. It feels bumbling and amateurish. It gives the feeling that the people who kept the product cohesive have left or retired, and that a new generation of overly ambitious car

If you did not study these topics, the chances are good you do not know what questions to even ask, let alone how to ask them. Add to the fact that you don't even know if the original summary is accurate.

How does the wand know what I'm flicking it at? What if I miss? Maybe the wand thinks I'm targeting some tiny organism that lives on the organism that I'm actually targeting. Can I target the wand with itself?

When I saw this I rolled my eyes. It is well-understood that purpose-built models perform better than general models on tasks like this, and yet it would seem one of the main purposes of running this experiment according to the website is t

At this particular moment in time, the old quote about "the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent" feels relevant on a couple of levels. I keep waiting for the bubble to burst and for these executives to

This style of rabies vaccine is for pre-exposure. Post-exposure vaccination is more involved if you aren’t primed. In addition, it used to be the case that people received abdominal shots and the course was pretty intense. That has ended, b

To me, their usage is akin to to turning a plaintext file into rtf. Emojis do not look the same across platforms. Generated text should default to the generic IMO.

You're almost there. Think to yourself now: what was it that happened in the past that necessitated the need for a large regulatory apparatus, auditors, etc.?

Why do you think they’re “lazy”? The point is usually to bait you: “You’ll never guess this one weird trick!” Here it actually makes some sense. There are _so_ many AWS services. It’s similar to the quiz about AWS service icons that demonst

This feels silly. I think this is just "ask for forgiveness, not permission" but made more clickbaity. It also borders on a kind of edgelord attitude that I've seen from people who I wish not to work with again.

Raph has written about avoiding grinding in games very explicitly. This was one of the big takeaways from Ultima Online.

Speaking of, someone shared with me an AI financial challenge where they are pitting the LLMs against one another to make trades, manage risk, etc. and then track their performance against one another with starting capital of 10,000 USD eac

Have you been getting the annual booster? There is no agenda or gotcha coming, I am genuinely just curious.

This comment of yours contributes nothing and is exactly the level one would expect of Reddit. If you want better, start by doing better yourself.

Yeah, I remember this. Macromedia Fireworks had a slice tool that I used quite a bit. You'd basically make an image which was your website, and then do all the layout with zero border tables. But for me, this was what I was doing circa

What a weird take. I'm an engineer and I haven't worked at a single company that has issued windows laptops to engineers unless they asked for it. The default for a lot of dev work has been mac for a very long time. I think that&#

I had the same thing with my caffeine sensitivity, but my nicotine sensitivity hasn’t gone back and it’s been over a year. I used nicotine lozenges daily for years but even after 12 months post-covid my body does not tolerate them.

I agree completely that there is no platonic ideal, that there will always be trade offs, and that running successful businesses is part of the equation, but let's not ignore the fact that profit _to the exclusion of all else_ is bad.

“All the smart kids of the Bay Area want to work on AI,” Operative word here is "kids", and from what I can tell they're not even the smart ones, just the ones who are more geared toward being money and status-obsessed.
