The best thing about EBs is, they do not hum and vibrate so much making it feel like the bus is about to transform into some Decepticon bot any minute now.

It took many years for online tracking, iframes, sticky cookies and cambridge analytics before things like GDPR came into existence. We have to similarly wait a few years before similar major leaks happen through LLM pipelines/integrat

It depends… There are really good people and there are bad people. While there is room to improve, I have decent number of colleagues who praises the system and decent number who have points that they deserve more respect. That being said,

Here is the example of why LLMs need to replace some douchbag SWE. But then again, unless there is a nutcase product owner involved, update check every 5min and downloading automatically is pure symptom of bad engineering practices and fear

Hmm... But SN himself is not writing code or involved in day to day development. He can claim anything and his incentives are 100% aligned to claiming AI bs. In similar development, as much as 98% AI generated code wastes my time because I

It is hard to tell at this point about the AI/LLM. But the powerful hardware backing it has numerous potential in other research and innovations which are not yet clear to us. Just like the fiber and cellular network made Meta or Airbn

You are indeed correct according to my opinion. Salesforce went too deep into BlockChain and BigData and probably never recovered from the sunk costs. But to stay relevant they again need to risk another bet but also need to conserve(death

I think, we need to step back a little in these discussions. We need to ask, what productivity gains are we hoping to find? In any knowledge or specialised work, operating a tool faster does not give great results, rather raises the risk of

You are misreading. The declaration effectively does NOT quantify or prove any productivity gain. It simply alludes to a possibility by forcing to adapt a new tool which is frequently sold as productivity gain. There is no real consensus or
