Check in in 20 years. The gap between the US and whoever is in second place is enormous. I don't spend enough time on Reddit to think it's close or declining.

Then touching grass remains a good recommendation for you and the person I replied to. Only hard to hear because I wish more of my countrymen were connected to reality.

It is, because of the time component of money. Money is a way of storing the value of labor in a manner less affected by time. If you sell it all at once, its value is greatly reduced. All investments include that time component. Point-in-t

Gold is value, you cannot take it to a grocer and buy food.

I have no idea why the adjusted net worth of people who died centuries ago would have anything to do with money in the modern day. And at a glance, neither of your examples had billions of dollars in cash , which is the point I was making.

You sound like you don't live in the US. Maybe read less reactionary news.

I mean as far as I know no human being is even a billionaire anyway if you only count cash. It's one of the things the "eat the rich" crowd is particularly bad at internalizing, that there's a difference between value an

If you can describe the code you want to write, AI can write it exactly the way you would have, but faster than you every time. That is the floor now.

The problem is that people who are bad writers have trouble understanding that AI writes worse than they do

I'm a man, and I've been using Uber since it launched. Most rides are fine, but there are enough weirdos on the platform that 220 incidents per day that are serious enough to report seems reasonable to me, even if you don't c

In the case I described then, what would normally happen if the fan is blocked after ignition? Like if I had a fully functioning system, booted it up, and then blocked the fan from spinning with a stick, the computer is going to keep the ga

Gemini at least will produce small functional inline sample apps without being explicitly told to, particularly if you're trying to learn about something, it'll produce an interactive diagram or similar. I can see a future where t

I attribute a lot of it to the principle of "punching up".

Yeah and it's actually possible to avoid pork if you need to. If she wanted to actually stand by her beliefs at this point she'd have to go live in the woods.

I was productive for 25+ years before AI, now I'm more productive because of it. At this point in time, you can do all the software engineering and programming and design yourself, and at worst an agent will be able to literally just

Seems like she has.

Can you elaborate? I interpreted the same as the other comment that the blower fan just needed a hand start and kept going after the furnace started up. What you're saying only makes sense to me if the spinning the fan by hand allowed

Short answer: yes. So far it has borne out that AI has substantially raised the floor for software development, but that experienced software developers benefit the most. If you don't really know what you're doing, you can still b

An article laser-targeted at HN's front page, making tantalizingly negative and easily disprovable claims about Javascript? Perish the thought.

Two things that I would recommend trying out if you're interested in exploring this further: 1. If you're not paying for a model, the results will be worse. That sucks but the free access models are just not very good for anything

Right, but it does gate the actual installation behind a secondary approval in a trustworthy prompt that the page author doesn't control. The page author could of course make a dangerous-but-trustworthy-looking app that would pass must

Prompting for installation opens a dialog controlled and populated by the browser that has the name and author of the app to be installed. You can test it on the example page here, linked from the article: https://microsoftedge.g

Kind of surprising. I had interpreted these tokenmaxxing initiatives at some of the larger companies as R&D investment, motivating employees to find the useful applications of a new technology with fairly broad applicability. Obviously

Coincidentally, Florida was the same state that barred and later disbarred Jack Thompson, the nutcase lawyer behind a lot of the video game litigation.
