I am not saying it's viable or not. I'm saying that the statement the author put forward for why it's Absolutely not viable, is not valid. That's why I said I actually don't think it's realistic in my post. He

This sentence proves the author has no ability for logical thinking: Data centers in space only make sense if they are cost effective relative to normal data centers. I too don't think it's currently a sensible solution. But the a

Spot on. It’s the lumberjack mourning the axe while holding a chainsaw. The work is still hard. it’s just different. The friction comes from developers who prioritize the 'craft' of syntax over delivering value. It results in mas

Feelings are information with just as much, or more, value as biased intellectualizing. Ask Linus Torvalds.

Ok. You do you. I'll stick with the models that understand what latest version of a framework means.

People's mileage may vary, but in my instance, this was so bad that I actually got angry while trying to use it. It's slow and stupid. It does not do proper research. It does not follow instructions. It randomly decides to stop be

Absolutely nothing new here. Don’t try to be ethical and be safe, be helpful, transition through transformative AI blablabla. The only thing that is slightly interesting is the focus on the operator (the API/developer user) role. Hardc

There is much to learn about human psychology from animal indeed.

Given that you asked about this topic, I assume you are interested in it, so I apologize in advance if this comes across as negative. I come at this as a ruthless pragmatist. My background is in Metacognitive Therapy (MCT) and long-term min

Think of it like moving a husky dog from Siberia to the Sahara. Nothing has changed with the dog, but it's not functioning quite as well after the move. The classic examples are things like going to a library where everyone else is sil

Now I read it. And yes, it’s not very good. The article conflates symptom management (state) with structural personality change (trait) and mistakes behavioral masking for genuine psychological shift. Personality traits are defined by their

Having worked as a therapist for years, treating thousands of client, and read more books and studies on this than I can count, I can for certain say that is MUCH MUCH simpler to change the environment than your personality to improve well

No point in arguing with people who bring a snowball into Congress to disprove global warming.

Could view it as push/pull dynamics: pushed away by toxicity, pulled to good answers from AI.

The hate is so irrational I can’t stop feeling that any project that even uses Conda HAS to be terrible. Like a chef that creates a recipe with shit as an ingredient. I could exchange the shit for sugar, but why bother, the chef is obviousl

I was thinking of testing it, but I have an irrational hatred for Conda.

They put themselves in the position of having to answer these questions given their claims. I’m not suggesting they should figure out everything about everything, but given the over the top claims made, these are the least they should be ab

I wish all self-promoting scientists and sensationalizing journalists had a fraction of the honesty and dedication to actual truth and proper communication of truths as you do. You seem to feel that it’s more important to be transparent abo

This is totally improper reporting of the study. When enough words, framing, and unstated important premises are omitted, it crosses over from the realm of incomplete or misleading into plain outright lying in my worldview. They claim &quot

Im a bit out of the loop with this, but hope its not like that time with python 3.14, when it was claimed a geometric mean speedup of about 9-15% over the standard interpreter when built with Clang 19. It turned out the results were inflate

And more people turning up at the clinic doesn’t mean there are more sick people, but it’s an indication. Funny that you ignored “indicates,” which is a perfectly valid inference here, and also it’s true. If you want to be pedant, don’t sel

This is only relevant for those deeply involved in fundamental or early-stage battery research. An energy density of 1270 Wh/L is indeed roughly double what is currently found in top-tier electric vehicles. However, as with many batter

I think you and I have a different definition of "obsessed." Would you label anyone interested in repairing their own car as obsessed with DIY? My thinking goes like this: I like that open(ish) models provide a baseline of pressur

Same. And yes, I also feel the "satisfaction of witnessless vindication," since I was almost treated as a blasphemer when I criticized him in my circles.

Because no study can find any clinical improvement in sleep quality and duration, I tried with many patients with no effect (I'm a clinical psychologist). So, it's not proven to work practically or anecdotally, only theoretically.

I apply the same criteria to any scientific assent. What is the actual practical / clinical relevance? And is it properly studied without p-hacking, correlation/causation confusion and without signs of bias. Following these criter

I disregarded everything from him after I read two of his books. It’s not perfect, but my rule of thumb is simple: If a scientific story feels sexy, cinematic, and narratively perfect, it’s likely fabrication. Same reason I have been skepti

I tested it for coding in Cursor, and the disappointment is real. It's completely INSANE when it comes to just doing anything agentic. I asked it to give me an option for how to best solve a problem, and within 1 second it was NPM inst
