rust evangelism is some people / youth of today trying to differentiate themselves from their parents, aka heavy metal of programming. its ok, its fun. i cant read their source code but i dont need to, theres a whole world out there of c/c++/python stuff that will get the job done faster and with less hassle.
EU cant claim the moral high ground anymore with the way this was done. They've joined the rest of the world now. This was a win for foreign companies and makes me wonder if the EU has been infiltrated by outside interests.
i always have a little chuckle inside when i see someone using the term software engineer - i always thought it was a term they used to pick up chicks.
that is beautiful, its something i believe as well but never seen it written so eloquenty. when everythings gone to hell and your backed into a corner, learning something interesting is always there for you.
I wonder if peertube could be used as backend infra for a security camera system, the tech seems promising. Also with all these instances hosting their own content, what do they do to combat cgnat? do individuals need to upload to an instance that has a public ip at a bare minimum. And what about directory listings for content, users would expect to be able to browse available videos and then burrow down to instances that host them no?
The internet is dieing just like mobile phones before that. Correction: mobiles were stillborn due to no open standards or O/S. Cant even buy a modern TV without privacy concerns -- lel.
What a terrible world to live in. Of course hes trying to convince Gen Z of the "opportunities" they have. Opportunities for him and his oligarch friends to make a load of $. Cant wait for this AI bubble to crash and dissolve a bunch of undeserved wealth.
Not everyone is a 200k engineer. Even kids with some hacker skills or university students with time > salary, who have access to LLM's, will start making cheaper alternatives and get into business that way for themselves.
Using laws to ban competitors is just economic warfare thats all. Its got nothing to do with "national security", thats just the reason they give us normies. You should be safe in Australia since they actually need to be friends with China.
thats a fantastic strategy thank you, and thanks to all the other helpful posters as well here. do you have any tips for how to choose the base yolo model? or just any generic one will do?
does this mean im actually able to try object detection in opencv now? i mean i know basic image processing techniques, and i know "in theory" how ML works but ive never really seen a case where i can just say "heres an image now detect all the apples". theres always 1. find a model that has the knowledge, 2. hook it up to an inference engine, 3. do something useful. i always get stuck at 1.
this is so true, its hard to make a decision when that actually means you're losing a bunch of other possibilities. so no-decision becomes a decision and then you're left with nothing.
Agree with you there. What you are working on and the commenter below talking about surgery, they are all valid counter examples where the degree of expertise is quite extreme. But most people are not living on the edge of domain expertise. Im guessing 80% of the domain knowledge out there is up for grabs. For example: I dont have to go get a job at a security software company to figure out how security camera systems work and the principles involved, I can ask probing questions of an LLM and get most of it. The domain knowledge is embedded in the model.
This article is wrong. LLM's encode all the domain knowledge you could possibly want. As a software dev I can query an LLM, become a domain expert in a short amount of time, and then code up a solution. If people think their niche is safe from automation, think again. Even the people who think theyre the masterminds at the top.
Edit: Yes "expert" was too strong a word. Proficient would be better. A lot of the barrier to entry in a field is just not understanding the domain.
