Even with relatively simple things, frontier models get me about 90% of the way - and this is without evaluating how good that 90% actually is. It's the last 10% that the model fucking sucks at. And it's often the simplest things.

The physics of travelling at 600mph+ would affect the rough surface differently than at 60mph. Airplane wings experience erosion due to the high speed combined with particles in the air - dust, ice, volcanic ash, and rain/water. The er

They "might" also end up in an ICE facility and then deported to somewhere like the Congo or an El Salvadoran prison.

I'd be willing to bet at least 10% of those 55% are married to or in relationships with immigrants and are going to say "Not like that!" when their loved ones are forced to leave the country. FAFO is coming for them.

If I wanted to spend a lot of time reading the code and figuring out what part actually needs changing, sure... but in this case it's faster to pay for more tokens and get the AI to do it. For code I wrote, it's typically faster f

That won't really change anything, and in fact make the problem worse. It would be like "getting high on your own supply". Or just making meth at home so you can do it all the time. There's still a "drug dealer&quot

I'm doing agentic coding with Claude Max, and it's like giving methamphetamine to a software developer. When I run out of tokens, I pay for extra. It doesn't feel good, but I do it because I didn't write the codebase - t

Maybe you should visit France today. I'd rather live there than the shithole America is becoming (and has been for a while).

Well, let's see: I don't give a shit. When half of the middle class of America is unemployed, it's going to look very different than the French Revolution, whatever might happen.

The Who is your evidence? Lol. The French Revolition turned out pretty well for the French people. It needed to happen. And centuries later, the French still don't accept bullshit, they will protest and riot when their protections are

The last time something like this happened, we got the great depression. Do you want another great depression? The next one will likely be far worse than the last one.

Mangione was a one-off, and a lot of people understand why he may have done what he did. Just wait until the American version of the French Revolution happens. If AI keeps stealing all the jobs, it will come sooner rather than later.

Okay, what way? What happened before? Don't be vague.

"we"? Are we all now billionaires who decide what gets built and who gets laid off? None of "us" gets to decide this. Only the very wealthy get to decide.

It's actually not a bad comparison. You might feel like you're getting 10x more done with AI but it's going to be 10x more buggy and/or 10x missing the edge cases, in the way AI usually misses the mark. I don't do c

Just wait until they start burning down all the datacenters after AI takes all the jobs.

If AIDS were airborne, I think we'de have a fraction of the billions currently living today. It takes a while for symptoms to show up, there is still no real cure, and drugs to keep it supressed took many years to develop.

Nothing you wrote is connected in any way to the comment I wrote. Have you read the code the AI produced? Do you understand all of it? Is it bloated? Would you be proud to say you wrote it? I don't care how fast you created something.

I can't think of a single case of any AI content, be it prose or code, where I thought "I wish I had written that". With AI code, it's more like I wish I hadn't let the AI write that .

It's a common colloquialism to say "America hired him to do a job" referring to the POTUS. From a simple query... "It is common to use the phrase "hired" when discussing the U.S. Presidency in a metaphorical o

That's a bit pedantic. There's really not much of a difference there. He can be fired too, but the current shitheads in charge would never do that.

Uhh... The guy in charge of the whole thing does things a foreign adversary would do. Has for years and he's back for round two. He even tried to overthrow the government once.

Maybe you aren't familiar with all the ways AI can be used. I use AI in two ways. In the way you describe, and also in the text editor as AI autocomplete . It works great until it doesn't. It inserts typos all the fucking time. A

Maybe you aren't familiar with how AI works. It writes the code for you. Nobody is "letting it mis-spell things". You run the code it wrote, it fails. You look through the code the AI wrote and find the typo it put in there,
