I'm not sure how that would work, do countries accept this kind of behaviour? It's like you've been paying your (lower) taxes in country X and now come over to enjoy the saner system. I guess you should have chosen your prior

Cydia would be the only way I'd ever go back to using an iPhone as my main driver. Good days.

They pushed Pocket in a weird way but otherwise it was a useful tool for article readers. I found it much better not to have to read on my phone/laptop but using an e-reader through stuff I saved on Pocket. It felt very much going back

You're not looking hard enough: indie video games, educational YouTube content being on par if not better than TV documentaries, countries generally not making great series, now being able to be seen by people anywhere, all sorts of gr

Normally to make a new smallish feature it costs me about $0.40. The core suggestion is to point specifically at the files you want it to read and use as a reference, otherwise it might go read some huge file for no reason. Also the tokens

So one can say "humanity" but not "we" (implying humanity)? Interesting take.

Convincing people with arguments and then being more than just 1 person? I mean, if someone is arguingtthat we should work harder to go to space, answering that they should just go ahead and do it themselves is quite far from being an helpf

Irrelevant to me. People would never ask whether someone has created something looking at SO or not. If the thing works as advertised, good for them!

Then why women segregate themselves in groups? I'm not saying I'm pro gender segregation but if women can have their own gender segregated groups, why men should be treated differently?

I agree with the post, if the genders were reversed, people wouldn't generally feel this open about it.

I think the main reason might be that when the output is good the developer congratulates themselves, and when it's bad they make a post or comment about how bad AI is. Then the people who congratulate the AI for helping get yelled at

Syntax has nothing to do with the speed of the language: python could be "natural" and "human-like" while being much faster and also "unnatural" and "inhuman" while being slower.

If saving 10c costs time worth more than that then it's not worth it. Ends there, really. A friend used to work at a known cupcake chain in London and she literally threw out 30+ cupcakes a day. Whenever I was around, I'd try to c

Exactly, also today I can actually believe I could finish a game which might have taken much longer before LLMs, just because now I can be pretty sure I won't get stuck on some feature just because I never done it before.

Nobody is preventing people writing in Assembly, even though we have more advanced language. You could even go back to punch cards if you want to. Literally nobody forcing you to not use it for your own fun. But LLMs are a multiplier in man

Keep using it and you'll see. Also that depends on the model and prompting. My approach is to describe the task in great detail, which also helps me completing my own understanding of the problem, in case I hadn't considered an ed
