Ironically there should be another study of how not using AI is also leading to cognitive decline on Reddit. On programming subreddits people have lost all sense of engineering and have simply become religious about being against a tool.

If you’re talking about limiting the power through ECU it can be interesting for engine longevity. If I’m buying used I’d avoid the typical downsized turbo engine pushed to its limit and prefer the artificially limited one as it’ll have pre

I heard in reality there was no "tech" but very good PR for consultants ("forward deployed engineers" I think their term was) doing standard data engineering?

Bureaucracy didn’t emerge in the 21th, contrary to lack of customer support for big companies. Bureaucracy is a symptom part of the enshittification, the root cause is Monopoly (direct or through organized shareholders across an industry).

The relative ranking may hold, but the problem nowadays is all cars are unreliable due to software. Sure a car letting you down because the engine is blown up is bad, but a car failing unpredictably in the middle of nowhere due to software

From what I’ve read, and what I get in the comments here, these too are plagued by electronics and software issues. I’m not sure this category of issues, especially software ones, are correctly taken into account in reliability scores. Iron

You forgot the largest factor for price increases: manufacturers positioning all models as luxury ones. All the while cutting corners on quality control. Take French ones, they went from not the most well built but affordable cars for the m

You are not the target. This is marketing content for their tool, aimed at semi technical people with buying power but not actual developers.

Problem is the latter group includes Ycombinator and their investors. The hypocrisy is many are actively meddling with politics and working with the current administration.

It’s not about wanting, it’s about what the job asks for. As a self employed engineer I am paid to solve business problems in an efficient way. Most of the time it just make more business sense for the client and for me to pay to just have

But competitors are already here and as others have stated Tesla sales are free falling outside the US, at best that’ll only work for the US. Even in that best case I don’t think that market alone justify the stock valuation. But even in th

It’s quite clear with DNC sabotaging Bernie Sanders campaign in 2016 and the way they handled 2024. Losing to Trump was an acceptable outcome compared to challenging the establishment.

I was a very skeptic on AI assisted coding until I tried Cursor and experienced the super autocomplete. It is ridiculously productive. For me it’s to the point it makes Vim obsolete because pressing tab correctly finishes the line or code b

Others? Do OpenAI, Google or Anthropic release weights?

For me ChatGPT was not that useful for work, the killer app was Cursor. It’ll be similar for other industries, it needs to be integrated directly in core business apps.

As a small business (5 person) owner AI increased our productivity and our margin so I look forward to hiring more people. There is something strange with big companies only looking to reduce staff, are we unofficially in a recession?

Network effect is strong. That’s why they buy already successful networks. I’m sure he recognizes that he has no clue how to build another one and that it was mostly luck of being at the right place at the right time.

That’s the narrative I keep reading but meanwhile here in Europe the only BYD (and Chinese) EV models that are sold are luxury ones, mostly SUV. Where are these all these cheap decent Chinese EVs the market is supposed to be flooded with? A

For email which is the most important to get back under your control simply buy a domain and then there are plenty of options for email hosting (including Gmail, but you cannot be locked out now).

Yeah I’m only in my late 30s and I’m in the same boat. Many things and mindsets can be good, it’s not about finding the absolute but finding the most appropriate one for the current context of your life.
