It’s hard to know for sure what’s acceptable when it comes to working conditions in China. The information we get is incredibly limited. Most of what makes it through is propaganda. That said, it wouldn’t surprise me if he does it all day

Because of how very badly it works in practice. LLM writing is bad, there’s no interactivity (inference delay), it feels soulless, there’s no coherence in the generated text. There should have been one good game by now. But there isn’t.

The wall is training data. Yes, we can make more and more of post training examples. No, we can never make enough. And there are diminishing returns to that process.

Please don’t get my hopes up. Adaptable people like me will outcompete hard in the post-engineering world. Alas, I don’t believe it’s coming. The tech just doesn’t seem to have what it takes to do the job.

Disney lawyers would like to know your location. Also, that Botox patent should be expiring by now, shouldn’t it?

I think the F-150 is the most popular. I know many people don’t care about other’s subjective experiences, but it’s always such a mindfuck to my EU mind when I see trucks of this size. Like my brain expects the car to finish, but there’s mo

I wonder if this is useful feedback to give? It would probably need to be more actionable. I’m hopeful the European open source community will take this invitation seriously.

I think that largely didn’t happen with Biden. But if it’s true then it makes divesting from US stocks a priority for countries targeted by the US administration.

The best programmers are cautious about dependencies. Taking something is easy. But you don't learn. And you give up control.

I don’t think evangelism is necessary anymore. Rust adoption is now a matter of time.

It’s hilarious that you feel the need to preemptively take control of the narrative in anticipation of the Rust people that you fear so much. Is this an irrational fear, I wonder? Reminds me of methods used in the political discourse.

Not drinking coffee is the only reason I’ve ever felt truly excluded at a software company. Everyone loves their coffee!

Each of these years we’ve had a claim that it’s about to replace all engineers. By your logic, does it mean that engineers will never get replaced?

Interestingly, you’re demonstrating arrogance. All you’re bringing to the discussion is “my feelings are hurt”. And you’re putting the onus to fix that on me. You have the power to change your paradigm, but you refuse to. Others have to se

I think they could do a better job communicating that, but I’m glad that Americans are educated and curious about other parts of the world.

The way to respect isn’t through shaming people into it. It’s through demonstration of value, in this case understanding of nuance. Instead we get an application of external logic and values which can’t be used to properly reason about the

Nobody will admit that the housing is overpriced, so they would have to be forced to do so. This is terrible for normal people, and slightly bad for the investors, but only a crisis or organized government action can reset the damage done b

He’s a Chinese guy in the US. He thinks in terms of large monoliths. The nuance of 40 different cultures on a small continent might be lost on him. That’s OK. We all have some approximation of reality in our brains which is necessarily shap

My best and “longest” memories are from a two year period spent in the university when I had earned some money in internships and could live with few obligations. That was the happiest I’ve ever been. Childhood is mostly blocked out (abusiv
