I think a better approach would be to use the objective built-in feedback, like the thumbs up button in Gemini.

I never understood why people like Grim Fandango so much. I know many people who absolutely love it (and some more here on the replies) but I never did. I've finished it with a walkthrough so I've seen the entire game. Between an

I appreciate you took the time to answer my post. Since you like honesty, let me say that I think your framework isn't terribly useful and, for most people, somewhat condescending coming from people in a leadership capacity. There&#x27

That's totally cool - it's just not what I think of doing when I want to play. Spending months building the studio feels l more like a hobby within a hobby (or a job within the job).

Nothing more annoying than a manager with a personal know-it-all framework requiring people to follow it or else they get "feedback".

I agree, but it's still something we shouldn't eliminate a priori. I think Mathematics as a profession will be greatly enhanced by AI, but I can't prove that.

Despite loving Mathematics and having considered being a Mathematician myself, that wasn't a very robust defense. Also, even though I'm a big Terence Tao fan, I'm not sure he has sorted that out this defense in full himself.

I got a 4.9 and my wife got a 9.2. I should consider myself lucky! Or maybe it's because hot gals are attracted to guys who can code in C++.

Modular synths are very cool, but it's a bit like a swimming pool: it's great when someone close to you deals with the grind so you can just enjoy it. I talked myself out investing in modulars because I know I'll never have t

Many people here most certainly are (not the majority though).

I'll answer one of your points partially: if AI builds a better sorting algorithm and proves its performance characteristics, it's useful. I'd be able to use it to make my programs faster even if I don't/couldn&#x27

It would be interesting to see what would happen if we had two competing mathematical institutes, a sort of First/Second Foundations: 1) Rejection of AI for anything but trivial applications while still using computers at their full ca

It's self explanatory. People are very interested in it. Every new computing Wave comes with months or years of non-stop articles here. I remember when Twitter was released, people wouldn't talk about anything else for a while.

Both. Neither is a viable mass-market alternative in my opinion. Cross-platform office software is just a difficult problem. I think they could be appropriate for some nonprofit/government work, which I think is where they do well toda

I think LibreOffice is an outdated and overall awful piece of software. It's not like Open Source champions like Linux, Blender and Godot at all. Its only advantage is being Free. This product couldn't survive in the market if it

This isn't necessarily true. There may be proofs so complex, they could exceed the limit of human cognition.

There's nothing that will save your employment time because any employer will want to maximize what they get from you. This applies to literally any innovation past, present and future. For self-employed people, it allows them to foc

People will eventually realize that this is exactly what AI does for most workflows. The propaganda is "synthetic humans", "obsolete mathematicians" and so forth, but what we will likely see is a fantastic time saver for

Product idea: a LLM trained separately from mainline LLMs that anticipate market trends by analyzing how mainline LLMs will invest. As retail investors will probably use mainline AI for decisions going forward , one could get an edge. &quot

Complaining about the "LLM voice" is a bit like complaining about the compiler error "voice". I configure my coding LLMs to get to the point and be succinct. It's a computer giving me information, so as long as the

If you knew what "exponentially" means, you probably wouldn't be saying that.

It happens with any Chromium based browser, like Edge. Apple and Chromium keeps pointing fingers at each other, but the reality is that this only happens on Apple machines. Windows and Linux have no such problem.

There's a great movie or Streaming series on this post somewhere. Sometimes people can be too smart for their own good. Like a frontier model in an eternal hallucination loop, you can create entire seemingly consistent realities in you

I used Retry plenty - but not for good reasons. Gemini fails quite a bit (error) in the app and chat interfaces.
