I think part of the motivation for the big spend by the big players is to choke out Anthropic and OpenAI. They're going to make sure they're they only ones scaling up the huge capacity they expect is needed. To meet demand, Anth

The models are improving. The software that harnesses them is also improving. It wasn't that long ago that the models were quite bad at a lot of the tasks that they are excelling at today. I do agree there's probably a ceiling

Yeah I only use it for hobby or side project stuff, but if I get why they're mad if they expect to rely on it for professional work.

It depends on how much you want to just follow a single team or of you are just trying to catch any given primetime game. I mean I'm fine missing them of my team isn't in it. If you're following the local team and don't

Not sure which streaming apps you're referring to. If you only care about the local team, getting a TV streaming option like Youtube TV, sling or hulu tv should work. Probably some I'm not thinking of. As long as they get the m

for NFL it hugely depends on whether you want to follow the local team. So far, if you're in the local market the NFL generally shows the games on broadcast for free, and that you can get to with an antenna and a TV card depending on

Yes, it's hard for some to believe, but there are people in my family who are otherwise very intelligent but will not change their opinions on some things. Like climate change.

Experian does collect and sell income data about people, in fact i think they pay companies directly for this information. This is helpful for salary negotiations. It’s not in a normal credit report though, true.

Yeah, all my serious stuff is proprietary. Github, for me at least, is for trying out ideas and fun. Which is why every project is unfinished. :-)

I think it's more relevant to talk about theaters showing current new movies because that's kind of what Hollywood is focused on. I'm in a more expensive city where a weeknight non-matinee will run $20 a pop for a current re

Also at FAANG. I think I am using the tools more than my peers based on my conversations. The first few times I tried our AI tooling, it was extremely hit and miss. But right around December the tooling improved a lot, and is a lot more e

Hey, so, I live in a city but visit my parents in the suburbs once or twice a year and at it did take some work, but there are certainly third spaces. After trying a few, I found some very comfy cafes to work out of, I prefer it since my p

They seemed to have given up on this in some areas. I don't think they asked me this once during my visit to France in October. This included Paris and smaller towns.

I have been able to prototype way faster. I can explain how I want a prototype reworked and it's often successful. Doesn't always work, but super useful more often than not.

I actually had an office at my first tech job. It was more like a cubicle that went to the ceiling, with a sliding door. I didn't know how good I had it.
