Did you read the article? Not wanting to visit countries where secret police are rounding people up, regardless of citizenship, seems like a reasonable opinion.

Yea the sizing seems wrong. Hands are way too big compared to his head. Could be a weird lens/angle though. If it is AI wtf is it even doing there though? It adds nothing. A quick search returns a bunch of images where Jobs looks annoy

The point is because natural language systems seem so easy to use people assume the existing hard parts will become easy. But integrating systems is hard not because formal languages are challenging to use but because connecting systems is

What do you think a good response would look like? I thought about linking to comments from those in charge but I admit I was too lazy to collect them. At this point I’m lost on what more to say to people other than “You know those problems

That’s the point the interviewee is trying to make. The libertarian era was an anomaly not the actions of today.

As someone who has aphantasia I did the same thing, but with motes of dust on the window. I’d stare at a single bit of dust or dirt and move my head up and down to make the dirt move with the landscape. It’s funny to read these stories beca

To be honest as someone who's built a dozen dice rolling and dming tools for myself I've recently switched mostly back to paper. There's just something really nice about rolling physical dice on a physical table while flippin

Yea this is my takeaway as well. All of the advice is applicable to everyone. Health should always come first.

One of the interesting corollaries of the title is that this can also be true of humans. Being able to code is not the same as being a software engineer. It never has been.

I hate jq as much as the next guy but it’s ubiquitous and great for this sort of thing. If you want a single path style query language I’d highly recommend JsonPath. It’s so much nicer than jq for “I need every student’s gpa”.

The major problem with most telling of the test is we don’t do it. The game is to be played with three participants: two competitors, and a questioner. Of course today the assumption is it’ll be a human and a machine, no questioner. The go

There isn’t really anything like Phoenix or Django or Rails. There are a set of tools though that are commonly used to build web apps. Lustre is the primary view tool. Wisp is the server. And then squirrel and POG, newer but people seem to

Just a nit but this isn't a debt ceiling issue. They raised the ceiling by 5trillion with the big bill passed in the spring[0]. Shutdowns occur because no budget has been passed so the government hasn't been authorized to spend an

Do you have any recommendations for a language where you _have to_ use these concepts. I love playing with them but I find that unless i’m paying a lot of attention in most cases I fall back to a less functional style even in a language lik

They were rolling out a free service over the past few years that was getting solid reviews and plenty of people used[0][1]. One of the top priorities[2] of the Trump administration and DOGE was to prevent that and it has been since shut do

The point of the article isn’t that abstract super intelligent agi isn’t scary. Yes the author says that’s unlikely but that paragraph at the start is a distraction. The point of the article is that humans wielding LLMs today are the scary

One of the things I’d love to know is if you agree with this view what is an average person to do? You can always short the whole market but that’s crazy risky and as the article says this could go on for some time.

The thing that sucks about the expectations is that it’s also what the market builds. I’ve been looking with what I think is a reasonable list; 1.5 bath, 3 bedrooms, ideally a living room and dining room but if they are combined or I have t

MyGNU Health looks to be along the lines of Apple Health and is intended to be used by consumers to monitor vitals and track statistics.

Yea I’m tempted to upgrade because I assume that people just don’t like change. But then seeing nn group doesn’t like it isn’t a great sign. Definitively going to wait and see what people say in a few months.

Is this fawning or just reflecting reality? I’m generally in the “LLMs kinda suck camp” and I read the headline and thought “yep 100%”. OpenAI is able to raise and deploy insane amounts of capital on a whim. Regardless of that being a good

This is my favorite thing about this whole situation. I spend years trying to get teams to follow best practices. And then suddenly if you follow them the LLM is more effective so now they follow them ignoring that they could have been more

Isn’t the solution to tell the interviewee that they will have to write some code without llm support? In the case of someone like you I’d hope they’d take that as notice to spend a tiny bit of time getting back up to speed. If it really i

It’s not really baffling. Banks use knowledge of them as proof of identity. Obviously that’s a horrible idea and was explicitly advised against by the social security administration. We’re in a world where the security is necessary regardle

It’s telling to how society values copyright of different media that 4 years into people yelling about these being copyright violation machines the first time there’s been an emergency copyright update has been with video.
