This. And also a lack of respect for people commenting about it. I used to randomly evaluate and give honest feedback on invisible projects when I had the time. Most times I was completely ignored, even when I was the only person who really

LLMs themselves are not a fad or overhyped. Even my mum (almost 70) is using an LLM nowadays, and she hates computers. Adapt or die and I don’t say this happily. I hate that I have to use an LLM to stay competitive, something I’m not used t

Nowadays, almost anyone «armed» with an LLM can beat you if you’re going in with just your bare mind. That’s what I mean by losing my edge. And it’s not just at work, I mean in everyday life. It feels like someone stole my IQ, and I need to

I'd happily pay for the traditional physical IKEA yearly catalog. I suspect that if they sold it in-store for a few euros (€2?) just to cover printing costs, many people would buy it. It's more than a product list, it’s a cultural

What counts as a disability depends on the rules society uses to decide who is "normal" and who is "disabled." For example, decades ago, many Irish gipsies faked diabetes to receive benefits. Before accurate blood tests

When there's gold but the easy gold is gone, some people rush to sell shovels - it’s easier than digging yourself. Soon, there are more shovels than places to dig, and some buyers don’t even know how to use one.

War is complex. One party starts with the "moral advantage" — but as soon as conflict escalates, sides look more alike than different. This is war after all. Media is entrenched, disregarding their own side's actions. We&#x27
