edgyquant··on LinkedIn uses 2.4 GB RAM across two tabs
That is not the primary purpose of LinkedIn though. It is used extensively by a class of people who are generally decision makers and those selling services to them.
edgyquant··on AI overly affirms users asking for personal advice
No study of ai can ever be done or be relevant because ever couple of months they are a new number to the name of the model thus invalidating all work around model behavior
edgyquant··on Mystery jump in oil trading ahead of Trump post draws scrutiny
Mass immigration may not have effected you but it did greatly effect millions in the blue collar and service labor market and generally speaking was a human rights nightmare for millions of people who were trafficked, exploited and abused by a system of corrupt politicians, NGOs and crime organizations. What’s “worse” is irrelevant when it depends entirely on who you ask

The Democratic Party isn’t without its own corruption either. Pelosi is one of the best stock traders ever and there’s a reason why people voted for Trump. The border being open was criminal negligence and this isn’t just a conservative talking point cities like Seattle near the Canadian border were maxed out on services the could provide to migrants. Across the board our politicians are corrupt rule breakers, it doesn’t matter if one is worse than the other. Neither party can really prosecute the other fully because both need to see their leadership held to account and are terrified of that door opening.

I know multiple engineers who have spent months or even years trying to find a job. How can you say not to worry when the industry has already gotten this bad?
edgyquant··on Why craft-lovers are losing their craft
I already see people using an agent to write a git commit
edgyquant··on An industrial piping contractor on Claude Code [video]
Yeah which is why the solution has to be legislative. These companies are trying to take over the entire industry and even if they won’t have as good a solution as someone who only focuses on one thing they have the capital, distribution and name recognition to kill any upstarts
