"Don't use mic cables" I've used mic cables for 1000+ shows over 20+ years with no issues. I guess most of my runs have been at most 100-200 feet if distance is the issue. Wireless/wifi controllers are the only thin

This is a demo. It's like taking the first shitty picture or making the first shit sounding "analog electronic instrument" played by the guy who doesn't know how to play music but is an electronic savant. It's the c

It's a new medium and I think that is really exciting to watch it develop.

I completely agree and this is a very unpopular opinion outside of people who actually are artists.

They are awful because there is no effort put into it. You're missing the point entirely with generative art. Generative art with care and intent is indiscernible from "real" art at this point. You just don't realize it.

Similarly, all the components in an audio amplifier are super dumb because you can just have 4 guys play in your living room amirite

If you're talking consumer, there are a plethora of solutions already that are much simpler. If you're talking enterprise, there's no way the cost will make sense for TBs of data as enterprise backup solutions have existed si

As a sysadmin I'm in the same boat. I've unfortunately never worked with security folks that seemed to have any sysadmin or dev experience. Whether or not this is universal, idk, and I have no idea what they are teaching in these

If you're trying to get it to write it in your voice, just dump some stuff you've written into the context. You need to think about other voices and be able to describe what makes yours different as well.

Use examples and learn about writing. If you're not a good writer, or at least have a passing interest, I'm not sure why anyone would expect it to nail their style any more than you would expect it to architect software in somethi

It's absolutely fair unless you believe in magic. "Make it sound like a human and not AI" is never going to get you good results just due to information theory. You're not giving it enough to work with or what the hell t

That's fine, but your inexperience with large companies that are MS's bread and butter doesn't really give you any credibility here. It's the standard for a reason.

They are great writers if you tell them what you want. If you're unable to properly articulate the writing style you would like as you would a software spec, well, garbage in, garbage out.

People outside of office workers aren't using Claude/Codex etc. though. It's the only real audience. What's the use case outside of an office? Grocery lists?

This is a pretty uncharitable take. Every largish construction company in the country uses StarLink for their many projects where Internet isn't available. Yknow, actually building the country out. It's a game changer.

You should be using stacking software anyway. It's a complete non issue.

I'm in northern Wisconsin right now and the sky looks fucking amazing. Stop being so dramatic.

He's 72 years old, I'm sure he has the best brains and everyone's best interests in mind. This is exactly what I want to see. I'm sure he will have very good opinions on technology and it's implications.

Cars are leaky as fuck. They are more leaky than your house. There is 0 potential of CO2 buildup that is anything remotely close to being harmful.

I get the impression he's not saying all sim games, but "drive the vehicle" sims in general. I have to agree. There's just nothing engaging about it imo.

A - masks don't protect you, they protect others, B - what % of the population leaves the house when they feel sick enough that they should wear a mask?

Not really, at least not in this discussion. An assembly programmer gets logic gates, a C programmer gets assembly, etc etc. And each one can say to the one above "well you don't really get it if you can't bang out some meani

What's absurd is thinking because you took a logic class and made a flip flop 30 years ago that that is the ground floor and that it means you "understand how it all works". You're not building a CPU from logic gates

Used to use this to great effect for capture the flag when I was a kid. We used to do it across the whole neighborhood. We realized that standing in shadows cast near street lights were excellent places to just stand and watch the other tea
