NuclearPM

Almost 10 years, split between apprentice, journeyman, supervisor, project manager.

It’s an amazing job when young and you can see lots of remote beautiful locations. Very high divorce rate…

Moved to Nuclear which is similar in that small mistakes can have catastrophic consequences. Nuclear has more layers of redundancy (technical and administrative). Railway has half the people doing 1.5 times the work as it did 30 years ago - nice profits though, Things changed when Hunter Harrison gutted/streamlined. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E._Hunter_Harrison

Canada

Same system as US. Similar operating rules. Other countries have different rules including track gauges (width). Canada’s:

“Fun” fact, the rules were metaphorically written and blood, and grew to include things like “don’t microwave your clothes to dry them”.

Everyone who had worked in the rail industry (especially conductors and engineers) for more than a few years has horrible stories. PTSD is real. Suited by train is fucking selfish and disgusting.

> This point of view has more to do with your information diet than it does with reality. Companies un-merge and spin out all the time, for many reasons.

That’s condescending and wrong. Mergers and acquisitions are hundreds of times more common than spinoffs.

Both are fine. Use “by” if you think Claude do all the work. Use “with” if you consider it a tool.

I used to be a railway signalling guy. AMA

We’ll never trust the US again, unfortunately.

Starting sentences with “It's almost as though/if” is very annoying.

I don’t think the italics help at all.

Which is?

You think AI will blow up the world in about a year?

What?

NVR?

Texas cops? The ones that stop parents from saving their children during school shootings?

Did you intentionally write that like an AI as a joke?

Terminates???

Dogs are bugs?

It’s very annoying when people start sentences with “it’s almost like”.

You work for Framework?

What is Norway? Couldn’t find a reference to it.

This is just disgusting. If republicans weren’t immune to hypocrisy, the world would be a better place.

Why not?

You argued against your own point beautifully.

Local LLMS are already amazing.

I’ve made over 100 games without looking at code at all. It’s crazy how much the technology has progressed.

It has made working on my programming language feel pointless in some ways.

Because it’s expensive.

Thank you for being honest.

Is this based off anything other than feelings?

There’s no reason to think that consciousness requires evolution

Yes
