Well, the wives. But women are generally ignored in our society.
If you ever want to watch a movie again, do NOT work on codecs. Just saying.
Consider what happened to painters after the invention of photography (~1830s). At first the technology was very limited and no threat at all to portrait and landscape painters. By the 1860s artists were feeling the…
I definitely want this for QA. And luckily I haven't quite finished spending this Sunday setting up Claude Code in a container... Instead I'm just going to give Claude a separate laptop. Not quite air-gapped, but only…
Excited for this! A couple of questions: 1. What is the resolution of timestamps (milli-, micro-, nano-seconds)? 2. Any plans for supporting large data BLOBs (e.g. PostgreSQL TOAST)? This would open up a lot of use…
Well, "Arcadia" is good, but "Tron Legacy" & "Star Trek" are better. Famously he hated ghost writing, so I hope he can make his peace with it now.
What percentage of the papers where written by AI? And, if your AI can't write a paper, are you even any good as an AI researcher? :^)
The question is not are the reviews AI generated. The question is are the reviews accurate?
In 1967 Louis Washkansky lived 18 days after receiving the world's first heart transplant. Today Bert Janssen has lived 41 years with a transplanted heart. Progress is hard won, and the first people to undergo new…
If the cost of returning and refurbishing a rocket stage is less than the cost of building a new one then that gives a competitive advantage on price. But space flight is a strategic competency for states so China, the…
Upvoting b/c this comment is true, obviously I disapprove of insider trading.
Is there any way all those involved in the killings can be prosecuted for murder?
Thing is: people are correct. Central London monthly rent for a 3-bed house is around £3500, but a 1-bed flat rents for £2100. So split the house into two flats and the landlord makes more money. Hence relaxing zoning…
If any alien civilizations believe the "Dark Forest" hypothesis, then they will definitely disguise their probes as asteriods and comets. At least, I would.
Anyone want to help me build a rehearsal service so that folks can be trained to ace robot interviews? The prompt HR uses can only be a half a dozen lines long, and I can guess it already.
Indeed. Pretty soon all jobs will be filled by bots.
I tried one these to see how good it was, and whether I could use it for hiring. And it was the best recruiter interview I've ever had. I know, that says a lots about recruiters. It definitely feels odd talking to a…
For Apple aesthetics is function. Apple generates enormous value from branding as a premium product.
The book "How big things get done" [1] has tables listing the historical cost overruns of construction projects. It's worth keeping in mind that solar and wind farms start generating revenue as soon as the first panel…
This is a good introduction to the highest quality evidence: https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/origins-pandemic
And this cuts the other way also: certain things - golang, MySQL - can not be used because of "100% rational reasons". I know, I know, I should let it go [1]. [1] https://xkcd.com/386/
So, the Innuit may not have 100 words for "snow" after all. But the Hacker's Dictionary really does contain 216 synonyms for "broken". [*] https://hackersdictionary.com/html/index.html
<Not intending to start a flamewar...> MySQL shines for simple OLTP. My PostgreSQL friends all have "paged at 3am to vacuum the database" war stories. I like simple and dumb for transactional data and MySQL delivers.
IME when AI "hallucinates" API endpoints or library functions that just aren't there it's almost always the case that they should be. In other words the AI has based it's understanding on the combined knoweledge of…
It's worth keeping in mind that the same week the government cut £5B from supporting the sick and disabled they also started selling bonds bought during QE for £100B less than they paid for them. Swings and roundabouts:…
