I've got Genelec studio monitors in my kitchen. I care very much about sound. I would never set foot in your anechoic, soffit mounted cafe blasting jazz at 100dB.

That sounds like a bunch of second guessing tactical decisions after the fact. Sorry he's not the second coming. Where's the rest of the political will in the USA? Looks like what the country actually wants is authoritarianism, so

This might sound rude, but people remember things they care about. Maybe you legitimately don't care about all these names as much as you think you ought, and feel guilty about it? I've given up and am honest with myself about how

Funny, I've evolved the opposite attitude over time. Solving business problems using bespoke software solutions surely is the absolute most expensive option on the table, and should be aggressively avoided unless no other options are a

Criticisms like this are levied against an excessively narrow (obsolete?) characterisation of what is happening in the AI space currently. After reading about o3's performance on ARC-AGI, I strongly suspect people will not be so flippa

I like this idea, but we are nowhere near a point of diminishing returns. We are about to experience the wholesale obsolescence of the economic value of human labour, which means in practical terms, no stupid jobs just to have a place to li
