This isn't offered as a defense of Einstein since I couldn't speculate on what ideas he must have been consciously aware of, but several times in my life I've thought I had a novel idea only to find a very similar idea was in

Marketing about a more efficient product that requires fewer engineers is obviously not new. The idea that human engineers are obsolete is pretty new, that's the claim that is getting pushback.

That's true, on some level it is capable of reasoning about the physical world even beyond our ability, through sheer breadth of knowledge and stamina. I suppose the area where it relies most on our judgment is about subjective experie

To help explain AI to my elderly mother, I said it is like an alien intelligence on a planet too far away to directly observe Earth, and everything it knows about humanity and our world it learned from reading just about every book and webs

I read Jimmy's statement and it comes across as exactly the kind of leadership you would want in this situation, whether you are a pro-union employee or not. An employer has a legitimate interest in making sure their employees are not

Fair compensation is a legitimate reason for unions. I don't know much about this situation, but I know it is possible for unions to basically be a group of drama-oriented bullies that pressure their coworkers to join. A secret ballot

In order for you to properly guide it through a refactor, you have to understand the code, which becomes less possible as it grows into a mess of spaghetti. I think that's just setting yourself up for a massive amount of frustration. W

Anything built this way will have a hard limit on the ability to scale in terms of functionality and load. Eventually it will get to a point where not even AI can work with it. It is hard to me to fathom why anyone would find those limits a

Thank you, I couldn't find it with google and I was starting to think the internet had forgotten it in its steady decline. Whether that's a symptom or the cause of the decline, I can't be sure. But there's still hope!!

It's beautiful but I was disappointed not to see the famous gif of the tiger approaching, which was 95% of the content of my geocities page.

I'm curious if you are a coder and have used an LLM to review your code. It is like something like shining a black light around a hotel room, and that seems to be the case even for highly regarded software. It is really easy to have tu

Pure speculation, but I've noticed drawbacks to the models on high effort. I interact mostly through prompts rather than agents so I sometimes see where their reasoning falls short. A model on high effort has longer output and can get

This is pure survivorship bias talking. Being ruthless is one way to get just about anything you want, but rarely the best way and it sits with you. Even Steve Jobs spent so much time justifying his shittyness that I think on some level it

It seems like I have challenges with both extremes, I can get pulled into my work and not look up again for 10 hours. But with virtually everything else, I have no energy to see it through. It is rare for me to watch a movie from start to f

I'm a little confused, when I click "or just read" it asks me to create a blog. Is there any way to read the content without creating a blog?

I think that the fatigue that many people are feeling is coming from the loss of control that is the inevitable result of more momentum combined with more chaos. Coding has generally been a slow and deliberate process, now we can go much fa

I agree, a focus on efficiency, immediacy, and quantity has lead us to a barren experience of discovery. Music streaming certainly has its virtues, it is a shame that they haven't made the discovery process better. I wonder what it wou

That sounds a little more like confused and furious. Anyone curious about why you are furious might start a chain reaction of confuriosity.

If you are relying on a LLM to write the code, sure. But no amount of guardrails can maintain the quality of a primarily LLM generated codebase.

This is something that has been on my mind for quite some time. I understand why people don't want to read AI slop, but I find myself using negative parallelism in my writing frequently and I've wondered how to navigate it now tha
