I look a Claude / ChatGPT as an extension of my thought. It should be held as such in all court proceedings. It’s used to allow me to think and reason about things. Idk how that works with journals today, but anything like this which

Idk about you. But I know lots of well qualified ICs who are enamored with AI. They are also boring it to build and fix things that would take months, in just days.

Decisions are less costly. When a swe can take 4 days to do what would have cost 6 months, the math of making sure you are doing the right thing before executing goes away.

Nope. The clinic is the collateral to the bank. VC stand to loose nothing. It does not happen overnight. But what happens is after they take control of the clinic or company they change the sales model to boost reoccurring revenue, this th

No dude. Read it again. The VC lends (the money from the bank) which the vc borrowed, to the clinic. They are a sort of middle man. It the clinic is on the hook to the bank and the Vc takes fist cut before playing the bank. Eg. The vc onl

The they failed part is not the Senate. Some members of the Senate failed to get the votes to pass the bill. Whe. You say it like you have it implies the will of the senate was to block it and they failed. And that is weird because the sen

Something about the wording seems dishonest though. Whoever sponsored the bill failed to get the senate to pass it. The wording here makes it seem like the senate wanted this but failed to get it. So again the senate failing to do something

You’re arguing against a position I never took. I didn’t say right-wing policies are inherently anti-science. I said your contrast makes no sense. You’re blaming Western decline on xenophobia and far-right politics, but China has strong nat

GIAC has zero authority, any group of people can get together and make their own policies and print a nice little certificate when somebody applies.

This comment seems crazy to me. Chinas political stance more closely resembles right-wing policies than left leaning ones. All the xenophobic notions you are talking about china has in spades. I am not saying China is not doing things right

I think it is funny they all these companies are spending a ton and racing to have a AI story. It’s almost like none of the executives understand AI. If you are changing your product for AI - you don’t understand AI. AI doesn’t need you t

It’s not that they don’t work. It’s how businesses handle hardware. I worked at a few data centers on and off in my career. I got lots of hardware for free or on the cheap simply because the hardware was considered “EOL” after about 3 years

What is happening to this person sucks for sure. But one thing I have learned in this industry is the thing being replaced is always better than the thing replacing it when you talk to the team who built and run the thing being replaced.
