Maybe. The point is that in case of software it is fairly easy to verify if that what LLM produced is correct or not. Compiler checks syntax, we can write tests, there is whole infrastructure for checking if something works as expected. In

On the other side, people who were using, say, Perforce, also thought there can't be anything better. Still, BitKeeper appeared as an innovation in the area, eaten later by Git, created by angry Linus (because of BitKeeper licencing ch

Mainstream music was created for a good 20 years using the following process: 1. Do the survey/focus groups to figure out a hot topic for a song. For instance your exploration shows that 300K girls between 13 and 17 years old were left

So, I've looked on alternatives to iPhone. The "little" problem is that if I use online banking in Europe I will not be able to use most of them as a bank required 2FA. Another funny thing is that they offer as an alternative

This is very interesting, I've been using LLM to learn new things that way and it really worked. To some extent, learning with LLM is better than taking any course, even with a tutor, as I am getting something prepared for me, in terms

If you use Renewable Energy Sources, it may happen there will be no wind or no sun. So you need some auxiliary source of energy. If you want it at hand, this must be something with fast cold start. So black/brown coal power plan will n

"Foreigners are inferior by definition" - but USA approach says exactly the opposite. Foreigners are capable, so it is better not to share secrets and technology with them.

USA does not want to train scientists from other countries, who come home and can use that knowledge against interest of US companies, as a competition, or security. There are vast areas of science that are "double use". Will it h

Check what is happening in Ukraine. The war moved a field of moderately cheap and moderately powerful drones forward. We don't understand the consequences yet... Ukraine is actively working on hunter drones that could operate on 10 km

Well, maybe people stop changing their smartphone every two years. Or every year. Imagine the positive impact on the environment! I am always surprised that when the planet caring, liberal Apple boss shows up on the Big Apple Event stage, h

The problem is that, at least for now, it is dead easy to switch to something else. No need to convert anything, reconfigure anything, it is not like changing gmail to something else or dropping Word for LibreOffice. Chat window is a chat w

org-mode would need an Obsidian-level polished application to become a thing. This is not that simple, I guess... BTW obsidian borrowed a few ideas from org-mode, like clickable checkboxes, creating ad-hoc daily notes, etc.
