I use PowerPoint for that. Draw outlines, or use graphics, wire up clickable areas, and interaction flows, and you’ve got a presentable “live” demo that doesn’t run afoul of issues presenting demo sites to non-techies…
“Eating less” is the bottom line, but the road there can be fraught. Many people don’t understand what the high calorie drivers in their diet are, many wildly mis-estimate how much they’re eating, most people inflate…
“You can’t outrun the fork.”
Nuclear doomerism is what has lead us to this silly "status quo" and the subject of the article/thread. There is more than one kind of nuclear, and the fuel situation has known reserves that aren't being used because of…
The other problem is the prisoners dilemma: if the west stops having children and not-the-west does not stop then within a short time we will have replaced the west with an equivalent population breeding much faster for…
Oil drilling helps oil companies. Nuclear power threatens oil companies. We used to talk about replacing transportation fuels and low-carbon shipping (global energy). Now we talk about personal responsibility and…
Hypothetically: perhaps they are trying to curtail users spiraling during episodes of frustration or worse, impacting their own mental health, presentation, and product affinity.
Kinda like how if I break some plates at a restaurant I have to pay for it, but if Tony Soprano breaks them the restaurant pays him. Protection is a heck of a business model, if you can get away with it.
I landed a massive database upgrade on a payroll system years ago, end-to-end standardization, cleanup, and improvement with a seamless rollout. Our back clapping was interrupted by an angry customer phone call. One of…
There were a lot of arms used over the border on October 7th, more confiscated on video and being used on video against the IDF, and the constant stream of unguided rockets being shot at civilians year after year.…
Like how Tony Soprano sold sandwiches and ‘protection’ at the same time. Two income streams are better than one.
Blowing something up so hard it almost gets into space is a feat of engineering, even if all it does is rain debris from ahigh.
I believe it’s checkbox-filling in the acquisition process for enterprise contracts, like a lot of other half-baked capabilities in their flagship products. It doesn’t matter how they work, it matters you can tell…
Speculation, but: if tech over hired during COVID our section of the market could be experiencing a corrective slowdown while others are booming in aggregate.
Or, in parallel, the research showing LLMs intelligence will operate on an S-curve, eventually hitting a long valuation deflating plateau, is dead on the money and The Big Guys are trying to delay that inevitability for…
It’s pelicans, all the way down.
> The software will suck and will not really innovate, but it will make a ton of money Microsoft’s goal isn’t to provide high quality software that outperforms other software, their goal is to provide an obvious and…
How do you work on Windows in the age of LLMs? That’s easy: you activate WSL and then ask the LLM how to get networking and stuff working since they changed it with WSL2. You need a config file flag to setup network…
I babysat for a military fighter jet mechanic when I was young, he said when they dismantled and rebuilt planes there was a drawer for all the spare parts that were left over.
A large majority of windows devs choose Apple hardware has to major challenges for MS. If devs just want shiny flashy then MS has failed at providing that directly or through their partners. If devs are able to make…
My personal challenge is that if c, generate then review, isn’t pretty close to a one-shot then I am almost certainly negative for time versus creating from scratch (accounting for over-documenting, prompting, and…
Sam Altman says a lot of crazy stuff, but I don’t think that is where the ‘bubble’ is coming from. In recent months we’ve had the first automated unmanned amphibious assault, the daily drone count in our hot wars is…
In .Net-land we have access to a lot of the underlying MS library code, and reflection/decompilation if needed. MS has layers, there are A-teams, B-teams, and so-on. Simultaneously they are dropping both world class…
I have a sneaking suspicion that if everyone proffering an LLM coding opinion stated their languages and area of focus/expertise we’d all be in a lot more agreement about the output… Example 1: “as a JavaScript…
Taking a multi-decade perspective, I wonder if our general analysis is focused too much on the initial wave of LLM tech and current gen GPUs. Owning a massive data center connected to water and power and network that…
