Python is an anti pattern. Nodejs + typescript is superior across almost every dimension other than data science and familiarity. People think it’s apples and oranges but it’s not. Also don’t forget golang too. If your app is Python in the

See it’s too pedantic now. My statement is not that a type of proof is impossible. All proof is impossible. This is a fact of science. Proof is only possible in mathematics which is a made up game of axioms and theorems. Proof in reality is

These software engineering analogies are getting tiresome. People are shouting “yeah the hard part was never writing code, it was managing complexity” as a sort of last hurrah before AI engulfs them. This is reality: not only can AI write c

Naw bro. These pets are domesticated. They are evolving via natural selection to be suited for living in houses, they already pretty much can’t live in the wild. Also the dog would rather be alive than not alive at all and which is what wil

You can prove other people are conscious off the assumption that you yourself are conscious. If you use that axiom then given genetics you know that other humans are rough copies of you so if you are conscious so are your copies because con

This analogy doesn't work. There is a material difference between SO and Github and a machine that can talk to you and understand you. You may claim it doesn't understand you, then I can say, fine... a machine that perfectly and i

There is a really easy way to do this. Ask an AI to write a browser plugin to filter out the AI discussions. Ask AI to save you from AI.

The ambiguity partly comes from denial. LLMs in the end, to be brutally honest, replace us. That is the direction it's headed and some people can't face the cold hard truth.

you lack imagination. AI will not play the game for you. It will construct the game around you as you play. It will customize the game according to you and the situation dynamically. The first step is AI npcs and AI generated quest lines. T

Yeah makes sense this is what I said about AI and coding. No way it could do anything complex. Now AI does all the coding for me, I couldn’t have been more wrong. You will be wrong too.

You just attempted to define consciousness here with a series of arbitrary features. Don’t not see how you’re making it up? The sounding and spelling of the word itself is made up. Then your attribution of these arbitrary features like an a

Reading this is like watching someone call cars moving a “trick” because it uses gasoline as fuel while humans don’t move with gasoline. Bro the LLM is a token machine, it is reasonable to have its short term memory be represented as tokens

No. You’re the one who is ignorant. The LLM is a black box. We do not, in fact know how it works. We know the learning algorithm and we know the scaffold of the transformer network, but the end result of all the weights interacting with eac

Do the exam scores matter when in the real world ai is the one handling the tasks. Why are we measuring human exam scores.

Consciousness is a made up concept. We made up this word and try to tie an arbitrary amount of features to it. Now you’re questioning the features like does consciousness only involve complexity without realizing you’re just attacking a lan

Yeah. Most systems avoid stored procedures imo. They way to go imo is to use stored procedures for everything, but the standard pattern has stored procedures as some sort of secondary thing. Either way the types of the stored procedures do

No. SQL is just bad. It's an old way of doing things. It's not hard but it's not good. Take this for example. Why do we have static type checking for typescript? Why do we have a build step for this? Why DON'T we have it

wishful thinking. If the hype wasn't real why have people stopped coding by hand? People like you are delusional. The hype is real. Now, that being said there is something to be said about AI making your life easier. It's not maki
