> Every avoided pregnancy is economically that woman being productive back in the workforce or managing the family on a lower overhead The child who would’ve been born is assumed to have had zero economic value? lol
I think audio books are to reading as e-bikes are to biking. Yes, in some sense they are the same. But in some important ways they aren’t. I have probably upset two groups of people and sorry for that. I don’t want to…
it seems we should be storing chains of prompts instead of code, and then replay them when a new model is released.
If it’s any comfort, whoever did this made more money in a month than I’ll make in 10 years. Wait that’s not a comfort at all. Now I’m more upset.
It’s so bad I can’t even believe they allow it. It’s just slop everywhere, even the posts complaining about AI slop are also AI slop which is pretty incredible.
Every second of the interaction is uncomfortable to me, but I also have extreme difficulty with video calls with humans. The latency completely breaks my mind.
I could see it relating to tools having unpredictable latency but if they already do background hand off to 5.5 then it seems like they could just enable it within that context.
But that’s exactly where we’re at. Disappointment is fine, attention is all you need.
It’s part of my identity? Nobody is going to see those letters, google them, find my products, and buy them. To call it marketing is stretching the definition to the point of absurdity. The entire idea that you can’t…
That seems to stretch the meaning of market inefficiency. Is the lack of unlimited free energy an inefficiency in a market? Because an entrepreneur who achieves that is going to do pretty well. I’d say that would be…
I’ve long considered marketing to be one of the purest forms of evil in existence. It truly does envelop and destroy everything good.
I consider myself to have retired at age 41 in hindsight, because a job never materialized and I also found that apparently I didn’t really need one.
The best way to increase endurance for long distance running is to run for long distances.
I’m playing devil’s advocate here, so go easy on me. But how completely do we know lean is perfectly true in all cases?
I’m fine with this as long as they immediately approve me in particular.
lol, you might change your mind when reparations end up going out to a very different set of people than you expected.
I wonder how much talent is out there who, like me, simply isn’t interested in debasing themselves to go through the interview process so just nopes out of employment. It’s all such an absurd joke at this point.

I wonder, is there a form of analysis which lets you quantify how ambiguous a set of symbols is? Maybe related to entropy? Obviously one symbol can mean literally anything, but you could also have very long strings of…
It’s like this everywhere all at once. The bullshitters have won at natural selection.
I’m sure there are some good AI products but the vast majority seem to be garbage. The exception is coding agents and simple web text/image interfaces. So yeah, as a signal the AI brand is about as bad as it gets.…
Claude is somewhat of a mirror, so we all get different experiences.
I accidentally learned how disgusting people’s mouth noises are while developing an audio leveler. The lip smacking and snot noises between sentences are the stuff of nightmares if you don’t do anything to exclude them…
I’ve found that agents are obsessed with adding more lines of code. Even when asking them to simplify they’ll remove 50 lines of code and then add 100 more. You have to explicitly tell them you want less lines of code.…
That’s too strong of an assertion. Local models aren’t deterministically equivalent in capabilities to foundation models. Home computers are turing complete; just like a mainframe. They are just slower. Often not slower…
