Fantastic idea to risc starting a nuclear war (while you don’t even have real nukes)

…That they have to shut down all the time because of droughts. And they basically need to rebuild half of it, because the maintenance cost is so high, it is constantly pushed into the future.

Few emissions? Yeah. Good? Nope.

Believe it or not, they sold all 20

I won’t miss writing code. In part because I still do when I feel like it, but also because most of the time it is extremely boring. A mere mean to a goal for which you probably have the path mapped out in your brain already. It is basically just busywork at that point.

There are these moments where you need to squeeze out performance, where you change something about the UI or generally visuals and get a pleasing result, or where you discover a small tweak that collapses a lot of complexity you originally planned for - but that is, in my humble experience, not the norm in programming. The vast majority of code is boilerplate or stuff you have already written a thousand times in some variation. The more experience you have the worse it gets.

I was ecstatic when I realized how good agents have gotten, realized how I could focus on design and architecture and with small corrections, get more than adequate software. Because for me personally, programming is the least fun part of software development. Most of the time that is. And you can hate it all you want, but programming is a skill worth nothing on its own now, and it will never be again. You can take solice in the fact that you can still do it for fun if you want to.

I have to say, now it’s even more amusing to hear people claim ‘.world is a bunch of narrow minded [whatevers] who block all opinions they don’t like’ (2 instances 😱)

And then AI says the should reduce emissions and they order some engineers to fix that clearly broken model 🙄

Wait, you are not telling me you use a single 3 layer piece to wipe, are you?

Just remember: Rule 34 exists for a reason.

We just bought everyone individual Claude Max subscribtions (Anthropic has done nothing about it so far lol). The most expensive tier is 200$/M I think - that’s already much more than most people could possibly spend in tokens.

I am more than happy with the 100$ tier. For a business, that’s a rounding error. Given the productivity boost, I’d say it’s a no-brainer (although you should train your people on it as well).

This is a wild guess, but my money is on social media

There is exactly one way to loose weight and it is to count calories. Sports, a balanced diet, interval fasting, all that is generally good for your health. But too much goes in, too much stays in

We can debate, but the pipelines are destroyed, no?

Something to lose? Maybe. Patriot missiles to sell? Definitely.

Yes, but that isn’t about investing in businesses, that is about allowing these businesses to buy up land and overcharge for rent. You could very easily solve this by regulation (e.g. capping rents and prohibiting property speculation)

This may come as a surprise to you, but I don’t copy paste this under every single article in existence that prominently features questionable numbers. Also, I can’t recall having seen the claims you mentioned at all and if I did, I would have felt the same way about it.

I am really bothered by the fact that claims like this are echoed by media outlets unchecked, while making them seem like journalism by appending ‘according to [directly involved party] sources’, maybe even ‘can’t be independently verified’.

I mean, Reuters has confirmed that this strike happened and that the video material is credible. Okay, so far so good. That’s bad, and you can report on it and raise questions based off of it. You have something to investigate, you can generate tons of content by discussing adjacent topics, but no, media decides to go for round 2 and report some unverified death toll.

Whether there are 2 or 200 dead children, the story is the same. Why give inherently unreliable sources a stage and credibility by echoing their claim? It’s so frustrating that the wider media landscape is based on grabbing peoples attention, rather than good journalism.

Completely fine by me. They need money for their endeavour, I give them money and expect something in return. I see nothing inherently wrong or unfair with that.

If anyone has anyone’s balls, it’s the US owning Israels. Virtually all military support for and imports to Israel are coming from the US. This is the one and only reason Trump could snap his fingers and Netanyahu had to bow, even when (parts of) his government strongly opposed.

That state exists because the US want it to.

I think AI is great for code review. It’s a best-effort process anyway, so letting an AI loose in addition to a coworker doesn’t hurt. So far it beats any human review by far, because it can detect even the most obscure (potential) flaws

There is no LibreWolf for Android, there is IronFox tho
