"Under use the tool, and you waste a lot of time." -- Or, you come up with a better way to do it. I do appreciate that the author looks at the chat prompt as a dumb text generator instead of imbuing it with sentience, but I feel l

15%? Where I live it starts at 18%. Before we swiped/taped our own credit cards a tip at chipotle was unheard of. I go to Hanlon's razor here though. The POS system just defacto has this screen and no one removes it because some p

Yeah this announcement is basically stating that all facts should be handled like Wikipedia rather than from an official record via news agency. Because the media is "liberal". This is convenient for meta -- no one is really watch

I think we have a fundamental issue with logic and media literacy in this country and if we don't fix it soon we are going to have trouble. With the flood of AI generated content featuring citations that are generated to support the co

Yeah, but they can design door handles, turn signals and windshield wipers that work. Tesla may be good at writing software, but their car designs and UI suck.

I thought the war on talent was choosing the ticket with all the rich guys who can't help but fail up? Looking at Trump's lawsuits and bankruptcies you can't say he's a talented businessman.

Twitter was a product I saw no need for to begin with. I think the brain dead management decisions he made going in had a bigger impact than the brain dead branding seemingly done by a terrible agency or one that was just staffed with yes m

The best way to save the planet would be to engineer a virus that kills people effectively and doesn't jump into other species. Any rules or regulations will be fought by oligarchs (who due to campaign finance have complete control of

Tell this to the people who bought Fisker cars. Designs that require systems to stay online are likely to end in obsolescence while the can opener I bought in 1993 still works great.

Why are we relying on hardware to fix this problem? Software efficiency has been in the decline for decades and each layer is built on the shitty layer that came before it. The architecture of LLMs is like brute forcing problem resolution s

Our CEO can work from wherever he wants and makes 240x what I make. I want his butt in a seat in the office that's a 45 minute drive from his house 5 days a week. I'd be happy to take a 240x raise to give up 8 hours a week to comm

I believe this is how most existing pre-internet companies do business now. Hire consultants to build the product and let the contract expire. Employ a minimal staff to add new features and keep it running. Expect this to work for 20+ years

Stay at my house for a day. Wife and both daughters all have multiple sets of headphones and I get to listen to Spotify playlists and Instagram/TikTok video chipmunk noises from tinny little phone speakers all day.
