The problem is LLMs are still non deterministic so they cannot maintain persistent state reliably and guarantee reproducibility.

My wife is Russian and we have close Ukrainian friends and Ukrainian neighbors. We often shop at a Ukrainian grocery store. Her dentist is Ukrainian. It’s never been an issue. She spent many vacations as a child in Ukraine and obviously do

This is a legit concern. I got kicked out of a large bank in the US when some transactions to Colombia got flagged. I always did business with people I was referred to. What was explained to me by a banker is if for any reason the person on

Startups are usually a bad idea unless you are a cofounder. It’s not the 2000s anymore. Anything less than series C is just too much risk. If you are not a cofounder that means you are working on someone else’s dream. There are exceptions o

The article starts by assuming there’s an AI bubble. Then it goes to label all these startups as AI companies. This is how they are categorized (2025 batch only): AI Agents (15%) Productivity/Ops Tools (11.4%) AI Infrastructure (10%) H

The MCAS system is probably not the best example here because it doesn’t take expert knowledge on MCAS to catch lack of redundancy and poor documentation in the design of a system so critical. This one of the reasons patterns, processes and

Something we definitely lose when we age is lack of judgement, and with it the ability to play and experiment. I miss that naïveté and over confidence from my twenties knowing I was allowed to screw up.

Nothing shocking here. The private equity recipe is pretty simple: 1) Buy a profitable business 2) Increase the margins overnight by removing costs or increasing prices 3) Suck the blood out of the business until it collapses. 3) Sell the

With millions of Teslas on the road one would think if that was true we would have heard something by now. My absolute worst car quality wise ever was a Honda Accord. And I owned shitty cars including a Fiat. My most reliable car was a Hond

The question is if avoiding the obstacle or breaking was the safest thing to do. I did not watch the entire test, but they are definitely cases where a human will suddenly break or change lanes and cause a very unsafe condition for other dr

It depends where in the US you drive. It’s a big country with independent state governments. It’s like saying I was driving in Romania and I was shocked by how bad European highways are. I lived in Texas and the stuff I saw on the highway w

I use autopilot for local driving (city - suburbs) and I pay for FSD when on long road trips (>300 miles). You are correct, they are completely different things so one doesn’t correlate to the other one.

I got my first Tesla last year and my first trip with FSD was just after the launch of V13, so I could not compare it to earlier versions. But I was shocked by how good it was. I completed a 800 miles trip with a handful of interventions, m

Despite how horrific this is it doesn’t tell us what really happened. Doors can get stuck in any car after an accident. Teslas are very controversial today for obvious reasons so every time there’s some tragic news the brand has to be menti

Familia doesn’t need an accent because the stress is in the second to last syllable and the word ends in a vowel. I speak Spanish fluently and this made doubt so I had to look it up lol.

I found out that summarizing a completed task and feeding it to a new context works better than staying on the same context for multiple tasks. So let’s say I have a sprint with tasks 1, 2 and 3. I start by creating a project with general

Where’s Hack Club located? This seems to have some elements of extortion. It doesn’t matter if you have a contract, they could still be breaking the law. Some of these billing apes aren’t the smartest people. I went through a similar drama
