I feel there are like 50 load bearing assumptions in this piece of fiction that are dubious at best, definitely speculation. When you put all of them together and chain them in a product of probabilities it becomes tech bro wish fulfilling

I use claude code everyday. Most of my friend circle have a CC max subscription and we talk about and use AI all the time. Not a single one has installed openclaw yet. For me personally I don't see that it can do a lot of things that C

I just learnt that em dash in a mac is option+shift+hyphen. I hadn't realized it was so difficult and inconvenient, and in the end it looks so similar to the other one: — -. Thin value. It's no surprise humans barely use them. The

Top 200 that work partially in public. A good example is Mitchell Hashimoto. Works open source, uses AI a lot and writes about it. Next gen AI will learn from the lessons people like him share

I mean, having a curated dataset of the works and posts of the top 200 coders in the world (at least the public ones) is not very difficult. I’m sure these articles like the one in OP will be very easy to mark as “high value training data”.

>Hmm... How will it filter out those by the dumbest coders in the world? if you know, and I know, and the guys at openai and anthropic know... not a big leap that the models will know too? many datasets are curated and labeled by humans

The best thing about this is that AI bots will read, train on and digest the million "how to write with AI" posts that are being written right now by some of the smartest coders in the world and the next gen AI will incorporate al

Makes me think of the concept of involution in Chinese business and how they understand all of this very differently, and how difficult it is to compete because of that.

I do a lot of data processing and my tool of choice is polars. It's blazing fast and has (like pandas) a lot of very useful functions that aren't in SQL or are awkward to emulate in SQL. I can also just do Python functions if I wa

It would be funny if what you get from a read only human brain is a sort of memento guy who has no capacity to remember anything or follow a conversation... kind of like an LLM!

I'm not an expert but as far I understand, plasticity is central to most complex operations of the brain and is likely to be involved in anything more complex than instinctive reactions. I'm happy to be corrected but it is my unde

I mean, _we_ probably can't think with our wetware on a read-only substrate. It doesn't establish it as essential, just that the only sure example in nature of thought doesn't work that way.

Very interesting story. If I may ask, looking back, do you blame Montessori for the “lack of real world preparation” or do you think rather that it was the regular school that had a bad system and you were in a better one and should have st

That's not correct. It counts the total number of school shootings. Some of those shootings had no victims. The total of students shot is also provided with some more elaboration with charts here. https://www.abc.net.au&#x2F

I think there are actually more school shootings than mass shootings because mass requires ~4 victims and school doesn't. There were ~330 shootings in 2024. 70 people died. 200 wounded. https://www.abc.net.au/news/
