I think it’d be a rinse and repeat of the line of thinking for VT but more exposure than VT. From VIFAX fund’s description on vanguard: > The fund offers exposure to 500 of the largest U.S. companies

Speaking for myself : it's a bit creepy and unsettling. Using brain cells is probably inching closer to consciousness than today's silicon is, and consciousness isn't well understood so I'd fear this line of research cou

I think a significant distinction between your approach and Claude’s approach is that your approach requires allowing your machine to accept inbound connections but Claude’s approach does not. Claude probably went with the latter to avoid a

100% agree because there’s a lot of value in understanding how and why past code was written. It can be used to make better decisions faster around code to write in the future. E.g., if you’ve ever wondered why code was written in a particu
