d00mB0t··on A Puzzling Python Program
"Isn’t that fun? :)"

Not really :)

I'm reminded of The Zen of Python: "explicit is better than implicit".

d00mB0t··on Jim Lovell, Apollo 13 commander, has died
"Houston, we have a problem" RIP Jim Lovell.
d00mB0t··on There won't be code at all

d00mB0t··on Green card holder, walking dog: deported
"Following his criminal conviction, Zavvar was placed into removal proceedings. A judge issued him a final order of removal in 2007. Zavvar had almost 20 years to self-deport and leave the U.S."

"Federal immigration authorities continue to pursue deportations not only of undocumented immigrants but also of former green card holders with past criminal records."

Seems more than fair to me.

Well said!

d00mB0t··on We're Still Underestimating What AI Means
"We're living through what may be one of the most significant moments in history: the emergence of a new non-biological form of intelligent life. And yet, it doesn't feel like it."

Maybe because it's not?

d00mB0t··on Dutch Dikes
"Man! That is flagrant false advertising!"
d00mB0t··on AI hallucinations will be solvable within a year (2024)
I'm so tired of these rich dweebs pontificating to everyone.

The Dollar: reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.

AI is a great excuse to discourage entry to an oversaturated field.
d00mB0t··on Experimental surgery performed by AI-driven surgical robot
Really?
d00mB0t··on Experimental surgery performed by AI-driven surgical robot
People are crazy.
d00mB0t··on Why didn't Biden release the Epstein files?
A better question is "Who was running the exploitation ring?" because it sure wasn't Epstein alone.
d00mB0t··on Why didn't Biden release the Epstein files?
Excellent question.
d00mB0t··on How AI Is Reshaping the Way We Build Software
What can go wrong? :D
d00mB0t··on Trump Is Building a Machine to Disappear People
It's the exact opposite--letting 10 million unvetted people into a country is just asking for trouble.
d00mB0t··on The Cognitive Architecture of Religion
Great work! I was hoping you would have mentioned Terror Management Theory:

d00mB0t··on Trump Is Building a Machine to Disappear People
"Cuba, Laos, Mexico, Myanmar, Vietnam and South Sudan"

Except for Mexico, these countries won't accept deportees. They don't want their own people back.

Dr. Evil ("100 Billion Dollars")
d00mB0t··on What if AI made the world’s economic growth explode?
"Markets for goods, services and financial assets, as well as labour, would be upended"

OK, where is this utopia people can't stop pontificating about? It all sounds a lot like self-driving cars and Communism--it looks good on paper but falls apart in practice.

d00mB0t··on AICodingHorrors – The price of AI-assisted coding
This one was my favorite: https://aicodinghorrors.com/vibe-coding-feels-great-until-yo...

"As a non-coder, it was rough." "Lesson learned--more guardrails coming."

Shouldn't the lesson be "Learn how to code"?

d00mB0t··on AICodingHorrors – The price of AI-assisted coding
Yes, but now they can be done at scale :D
