It takes great skill to lead a group of people and get the most out of them. That's not an engineering problem.

One was at Microsoft. He kept his office dark except for a large illumiated picture of Jesus on his wall. Everyone spoke reverentially of him and knew to leave him alone. Another was at a small company I worked at. He was my senior. He disa

I've met several. Anticipating what you might ask, what makes them 10x engineers? The ability to go off by themselves, get themselves into a type of trance because they are so focused and return a week or two later with thousands of li

I agree. The AI community seems to have a hard time nameing things. I never liked 'GPT'. Or HuggingFace. To your point it's claer from Python 2 and Python 3 which one came later and is more advanced.

You're right. I thought about it and I'm more trying to see how they work and what are their differences. It's surprising sometimes. They each have their strengths. For example, if you like reddit answers Meta AI seems to bes

That's why I ask my favorite AI for advice, then paste it in my second favorite AI and ask it if it agrees and so on to the third and fourth until I'm satisfied. If I really want to make sure I then Google it. This all depends on

> Is anyone even making the argument that AI replaces real art? I've never seen a case of this. It's an absurd argument. It's like saying AI replaces human AI scientists. AI needs humans to create new styles of art, just l

I consider HN a more reliable source. If you read carefully, I wasn't asking about SSDs, but long term storage. With that rejoinder, I thank you.

In case you haven't noticed, there's a pretty serious drone war going on right now and Anduril makes drones. With the new US defense package they stand to get some business, among other reasons for them to be in the news.

As a flag burner have you considered you've fallen for propaganda that seeks to divide the nation rather than fix it's problems? There's literally nothing wrong with being happy to be an American despite it's flaws

I came of age in the 70's with the fallout from the Mai Lai Massacre, oil embargoes, 16% inflation, high unemployment, New York City going bankrupt (Gerald Ford to NYC: Drop Dead). That's why I joined the military. It never occure

I don't give a shit about flags but as a veteran it still pains me. I think flag burners like Koran burners just like causing pain.
