So, no speculation as to why Spiderman and Harry Potter were forbidden but Terminator and James Bond were allowed?

There seem to be so many of these. I really wonder who is the audience for these. Who needs a framework, is incredibly sensitive to bundle size, and doesn't mind using a bespoke framework with no ecosystem? I'm just amazed that sa

Surely those text based tools exist for people who aren't CAD experts. I don't know CAD. But a tool that let me type in a description of a thing and then send it off to be 3D printed sounds pretty great to me.

> “This is it! The next computing paradigm is here! We’ll only use natural language going forward!” Is anyone actually making any argument like that? The whole piece feels like a giant strawman.

Ok, so you start out wanting to test if there is a market for your book, and use a Kickstarter to gauge interest. But then you pivot to the Kickstarter being its own goal, and do everything you can think of to make it succeed. Do you end up

Yeah I think it's fine. I actually like that people who are short of money can put the effort in to knowing where and when all the sales are and live a bit cheaper, and I'm ok with subsidising them.

I'm always surprised about this line of thinking. Surely an active duty pilot is going to keep his mouth shut, whereas as we see, as a retired one he's happy to talk to the papers.

I feel like in previous reporting I'd seen suggestions that the other pilots had lost confidence in him, and that you couldn't be the leader of a squadron if any of the pilots had any doubts. This story seems to completely discoun

He had students. The idea that the university thought they could suddenly pretend he never existed, and this would not become news, is not plausible.

Oh yes, LLM's are a failure when measured against my very specific metrics in my specific use case. Sigh. Actually I think they work really well, in any case where you can detect errors, which the OP apparently can.
