I get where you're coming from, though I'm not quite at 30 years yet. I like building stuff, I don't like configuring, debugging or troubleshooting my OS or computer. I just want it to work and get out of the way. For me this

As I understand it ramping up a new fab takes a couple of years and several billion dollars. The last time they ramped up production prices had crashed back down by the the time the new fab was fully up and running, so this time they'r

That's progress, last time I tried that a month or something ago gemini (the web app) crashed when trying to generate slides.

Yea, and a related annoying thing that started in 4.7. It often stops halfway "Do you want to continue?". Then I want to shout at it "Is the work done? No it isn't so yes of course continue, are you stupid?", but th

Exactly. Once they have enough float and has had enough time for actual price discovery they'll be included in index funds like any other large cap stock.

I think it's very useful but the hype promises so much more than it delivers. And a lot of the proponents are all in on the hype it gets annoying. I use claude to write a design, review the design, turn that into an implementation plan

Plus they now also have to compensate for the giant money fire called xai and the nazi cuddle huddle X/Twitter. The valuation is insane and the very low float plus short timeframe for actual price discovery just seems built to extract

Yea, this is great but I'm not sure how much this helps since it's just 1/3 keeping their wits about them. Nasdaq clearly did it for the big bucks and getting the listing, why did Russell bend the knee?

If SpaceX was only Starlink or only Starlink and rockets it would be an horrible circumvention of the rules. But now he's also trying to get the indexes to pay for the giant cash fire called X.ai and the far right huddle Twitter too. I

I'm in BigTech and these days we have to fight to even get backfill hiring. If we can get one head count per year we're aiming for someone that can handle a wider range of tasks. Which is a damn shame because most juniors I'v

I worked on an automatic partial solution (basically caller registering phone calls, receiver verifying them) but a primary problem was that iOS doesn't allow a good enough UX for a third party dialer, even with the new dialer roles et

What I saw somewhere, don't know if it's true or a rumour, was that it was a wallstreet guy offering them $5M for if he could shift the strategy. So be bought a _lot_ of shares of the very cheap pre-pivot price, paid them $5M for

Well that's a shame. I've been paying for years now, very happy in general. What do people recommend? I'm on Linux/Firefox/android and don't want to self host.

It would be easier to cut if inflation wasn't already rising due to increasing energy costs. Now central banks will be in a bind.

If they had went for it during the uprising maybe the regime could have fallen? We'll never know. But no, they waited 1-2 months or something until the regime could reload and people had gotten tired and went home to grieve for their d

And doing it over, and over, and over and over again. Because sure it didn't change in the last 8 years but maybe it's changed since yesterdays scrape?

I think this was more true before LLMs could put together a book in 5 minutes. Though you can probably post rage bait 500 tweets in that time. So maybe the overall point still stands when thinking about it.

Yea it seems very variable depending on hw / config etc. And the most recent patch at the time (I think this was during summer?) broke it for a bunch of other people on desktop that had it working before. For me it crashed after the fi

It's reached the level where a game not working is a suprise. Space Marine 2 was the latest one for me, but Steam is great at refunds if you do it quickly enough.

Flex work time is awesome. Other than flights I haven't set an alarm since before covid. 1.5 years of basically no irl social life and going to bed at 22 every day has really hammered home my rhythm. I still wake up around 06-07 every

I've tried getting started with this but my first attempt a habanero/mango sauce was _horrible_, must've used a slop recipe or something. Do you have a good base to recommend?

I read a bunch of comments agreeing with this anecdote so I'll offer my own counter anecdote. I don't know if it's what kind of information I'm searching for or something else but adding a !g has never helped for me. If

This is quite close to what I've arrived at, but with two modifications 1) anything larger I work on in layers of docs. Architecture and requirements -> design -> implementation plan -> code. Partly it helps me think and nail

This is just my own anecdotal experience but I usually get tired around 2130-22 but a few times I've turned off the red filter for various reasons (photo editing etc) and suddenly I'm still there at 0030-01. I'm not saying it

Very similar for me. I have a plans folder in my root where I store the plans while they're either under improvement or under implementation. Once they're done they're moved into the plans/old folder. So far it's wo
