To be fair the sentence prior I thought made clear I was referencing the plot of the book.

No, you only have to worry about the consequences from everyone. You certainly dont want the government defining “not normal” people. Or maybe you do!

> How would you solve the problem in large scale, low effort way? The problem is solved in a large scale low effort way (in many places)! If you are in public you can be legally filmed.

It is solved. Videos and photos are allowed in public spaces. You just don’t like the solution.

You can shear a sheep many times but skin him only once. It seems like billionaires have a knack for making lots of money every year. Why don’t we just take a bit more of it than we do now and invest it into useful projects?

OK they’re harder but they’re also potentially more important and valuable to solve. They’re still solvable but we simply do not value solving them.

Yes, that’s exactly what’s happening. It’s not right or wrong, it’s just the decisions we’ve made about the kind of world we choose to live in. Think about other problems like hunger or health care in the United States. These are problems w

I mean that’s like saying doing normal coding or working on any project yourself isn’t good enough because you put in hours to figure out what works and doesn’t. It’s just that you don’t like AI lol.

I’m not sure if you meant to reply to my comment or someone else’s? Why would I have FOMO? I am literally not missing out. > All you are doing is learning to deal with the very flaws that have to be fixed for it to be worth anything. No

My assumption is that I’ll be using AI tools every day for the rest of my life. I’d rather put hours in figuring out what works and what doesn’t to get more value out of my future use.

No, I throw out/give away almost everything when I don’t need it. Sometimes I throw out/give away things I think I might need because they’re cheap enough to buy again if I’m wrong. Like I had the Remarkable keyboard folio thing:

Around doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. Many fewer available at $600! I also think you're ignoring that you're going to be contributing to utilities in many of those share situations. I think the WeWork price now is

Engineer does 40 outreaches in a week and says the results are “not that amazing” lol. If I said that I coded for 15 minutes a day for a week and wasn’t impressed by the results, what would an engineer say?
