Because then you won't be important, the model will be important. And then everyone will have to use their model, that's their dream. Why isn't that your nightmare too? Why will you be special if it can just code whatever it

It's a societal problem we are just seeing the effects in computing now. People have given up, everything is too much, the sociopaths won, they can do what they want with my body mind and soul. Give me convenience or give me death.

It's been here since it's inception. The more the market grew and the more computing became widespread, the greater the number of ravenous sociopaths with other people's money got involved. This is just another version of Rom

Noone will clean it up, it's a societal problem. The koolaid is produce more, like we need another app for X . We are celebrating owning nothing, as a liberating act. People hate mental load yes, this is the perfect drug. You don'

M4 mini pro 24gb qwen3-8b-mlx and others. Speed is fine, problem is context window. In theory CoreML would be better from an efficiency perspective but I think it's non-trivial to run models with CoreML ( could be wrong )

It's because the purpose of engineering is to engineer a solution. Their purpose is to create profit, engineering gets in the way.

Many people have this potential but it doesn't necessarily materialize or evolves. That's fine, that's okay. We'll always have Paris. The trick is to be fulfilled, not renowned.

How will this pressure add up and bubble to the sociopaths which we collectively allow to control most of the world's resources? It would need for all these billions to collectively understand the problem and align towards a common goa

The deliberate push to alienate allies pushing them to the other pole (China), is setting up the stage for confrontation. It can then become self-evident China is out to eat the USs lunch so they need to be dealt with. And all the years of

All this is driven by numbers. The bigger you are, the more money they give you to burn. No one is really working solving problems, it's 99% managing complexity driven by shifting goalposts. Noone wants to really build to solve a probl

Yes but that's boring. Look at this it has cool ASCII and a QR. At this point no typing, just vibe-voice ask to build the thing and fix the error. Then we can have some tea, earl grey, hot.
