The answer is no when you are severely mentally ill or have some other condition that causes you to be strongly detrimental to the people around you, such as addiction. To the point where you have no friends. To the point where even your ow

Actually, that doesn’t mean anything. OAI is running boundary pushing large models. I don’t think those “second tier” applications can even get the GPUs with the HBM required at any reasonable scale for customer use. Not to mention training

IMO use email providers that have that built in. Because if your alias provider goes down, you’re fucked. And considering it’s a much less stable business than an email provider, it’s more likely. If Gmail goes down in 20 years, it will be

Really almost every rebuttal you offer is factually incorrect while demonstrating a lack of knowledge of the modern developer experience. For example > That's nonsense. What year are you from? I've heard this like 10 years ago

Honestly, you’re so wrong about the app situation that it’s almost staggering. iOS apps tend to be more stable, better polished, have better integration with system features (like the Dynamic Island), and even often have more features. This

I’ve been saying this for a while. CPU demand is about to go through the roof. I think about it, to get these tools to be most effective you have to be able to page things in and out of their context windows. What was once a couple of queri

i cant edit this but it's bugging me "does not rely on map level labeling for runtime" isn't quite true. they do use tagging in their centralized mapping that the waymo driver uses as one source of truth. but ultimately,

first of all, their approach does not rely on map level labeling for runtime. They do that for training, but so does every other player. High precision maps are used as a form of GPS in their solution. They also use it to determine delta if

I’m not a boomer and the core conditional of this whole thread is that you make $250k a year. If you’re making $250k and you still think what you just said, you are completely incorrect.

No? What? I mentioned Lifestyle creep before but what is with everyone’s fried brains? A small condo in a nice neighborhood in Santa Clara is below $500k. Yes, that’s a lot, and you certainly can get more bang for your buck if you’re willin

Rent? Ever heard of equity? If you make 250k you can afford a nice condo. Right away that blows a huge hole in your math. Also $1k month on bills? Groceries too? Judging by your inflated costs for everything, and ann idea that a house (vers

That “rational move” has always been a good move, regardless of AI. This is a boom/bust industry, and the next boom will come in a few years. While we’re at it, if you’re making engineer money, you should be targeting retirement at 50.
