Maybe I'm missing context that would be clearer if I read the book, but since it was published as a piece that ought to stand on its own, I am confused at the observations - devoid of explanation - that shower radio ads featured young,

You're not wrong, but you're not going to convince anyone like this.

Different points of comparison though. I'm not trying to hold up Andor against its betters, but its contemporaries.

Adaptation is a creative act. If it were a simple matter of not deleting things, why haven't we seen more totally faithful adaptations of well-written, detailed speculative fiction? Choosing to include details like this is a risk, beca

This applies to most modern scripts. Writers/studios have largely decided people don't care about detailed, reasoned-out worlds with unspoken "show-don't-tell" internal logic. Are they wrong? I shudder to consider.

You should absolutely make clear that this site was generated and may have errors. That is table stakes for stuff like this, especially when it's about financial estimates. I don't fault you for using Cursor, but be up front with

Is it yours? They use it for their decision making process. When you use a pen for your writing processes, are you outsourcing the process of writing to the pen? Or are you using it? When the first thing you say to a stranger is an insult

by mpalmer 1y ago
It's not a paraphrase, it's a misreading. How do you get outsourcing from this? Maybe they're using it to organize their thoughts, explore alternatives. Nowhere do they say they're not still making the decisions themselv

Love it, I am here for exactly this sort of playful boundary nudging. "Wet mode" is such a fantastically awful name. Definitely make me think twice about turning it on.

Is this overthinking it? Google had a huge incentive to outprice Anthropic and OAI to join the "conversation". I was certainly attracted to the low price initially, but I'm staying because it's still affordable and I sti

I'm sure believing that helps you if that's been your own experience. But it's demonstrably possible, at least for people for are not you. Like, are you reading "find joy" as "find a job doing what you already

You're not supposed to do anything. Why on earth would you discourage someone from finding joy in their work? It's possible.

"Fuzzing with AI", hilarious. Why do you think inexperienced clout chasers waited for LLMs before they started "fuzzing"? Why not use existing (real) fuzzing tools? Because they have no idea what they're doing and f

I'm of two minds about this. This is good advice for people who can't help but anthropomorphize LLMs, but it's still anthropomorphizing, however helpful the analogy might be. It will help you start to understand why LLMs &quo

I think you're reaching for an interpretation of what I said that's easier to challenge. Once you explain to the average person what a compiler is, they can draw a straight line from writing the compiler to the hedge fund reducing

Author doesn't seem to understand that skilled programmers can be productive in almost any language. Experience in the domain is more important.

Your country, at least to the extent you seem to claim it as such, only started letting its women drive in 2018. As recently as 2011 there was no law prohibiting violence against women. So that's one way of keeping the crime rate low,

Take some time to understand how the technology works, and how you can configure it yourself when it comes to thinking budget. None of these problems sound familiar to me as a frequent user of LLMs.

This sort of facile cynicism doesn't contribute anything useful. Anyone can predict a catastrophe.

It's pretty hard to corroborate a story like this. Everyone has to make their own judgment, but I cannot give the benefit of the doubt to the US government. What reason does this guy have to lie? If he was denied entry because of somet
