I don't want AI to fail but I would like to see Altman anf Musk fail for example. I'm very uneasy with the power hungry silicon valley freaks that are running the show at these labs/companies. Hassabis seems like the only one that is not actually Evil.
I really should get back to playing some more with raku, it was a fun experience the last time I messed around with it. Feels very expressive, like it will support any harebrained scheme you come up with.
it sort of makes sense to me,
when asking a question to an expert in the field while you are a student. I would guess the successful interactions on average would be more polite . Like for example if you were asking a question to donald knuth or terrence tao, you'd probably be polite while doing so. Being hostile while asking questions gets you into forum discussion territory.
Yeah Raku feels so expressive and lovely to me with the help of an AI assistant. I've only done toy programs and scripts with it but it is actually so nice.
Working in C# i feel basically still read code structure by the visual block structure / indentation. I dont think I've ever counted braces in my professional life. The IDE makes sure it is formatted correctly and ambiguity is basically impossible.
For me how cheap it is makes it much more comfortable for me to just take it with me whenever I travel. My other e-reader is a Kobo Sage but it is so expensive that I'm way more careful with it. And I feel like the weight is seriously underrated as a selling point. It barely feels like a piece of tech.
This is so well put, and it not only happens on the user level but also on the organisational level. Where you can completely abdicate both responsibility and explanation by moving the complicated questions into the black box of an AI model.
> Automated tests are already the output of these specs, and specs cover way more than what you cover with code.
ok but how are you sure that the AI is correctly turning the spec into tests. if it makes a mistake there and then builds the code in accordance with the mistaken test you only get the Illusion of a correct implementation
unironically yes, I think with the huge payday they get for being responsible for Microsoft they should also carry an equivalent responsibility when they cause social harms. Billionaires have gotten way too comfortable.
when i use claude opus via opencode/openrouter i'm sometimes suprised by how quickly costs can get out of hand. What are the costs of running openClaw, it seems like it would get crazy expensive crazy fast?
as someone who is sort of a medior programmer it is very hard to balance, trying to keep up with the advancements in AI while not shooting myself in the foot by robbing myself of learning experiences
> A game where seeing a single screenshot ruins the experience wasn't very substantial to begin with.
I don't think that follows at all, I'm currently working through Blue Prince and the way in which that game gives you information later on which completely recontextualizes things you have encountered earlier makes it so that a screenshot of something could definitely rob you of experiencing that moment, which is a big part of the joy of that game.
I feel like I'm still a couple steps behind in skill level as my lead and is trying to gain more experience I do wonder if I am shooting myself in the foot if I rely too much on AI at this stage. The senior engineer I'm trying to learn from can very effectively use ai because he has very good judgement of code quality, I feel like if I use AI too much I might lose out on chance to improve my judgement. It's a hard dilemma.
The RAF does a lot of flights over Gaza so the UK is actually involved, and the big focus in the UK is on Elbit systems who makes parts for the planes that bomb Gaza. The UK government isn't materially supporting the Iranian regime as far as I can tell
I wonder if having a feel for musical timing works similarly where a brain wave frequency determines how 'thight' your sense of timing is. Would be sick if you could improve that aspect of musicality with stimulation
The whole point of those books was to explore the places where those laws produced unexpected behaviour, so they are clearly not sufficient. I would argue those books are actually about demonstrating that it is very hard to build an ethical system out of rules.
the only reason they found all this stuff is because they had to dig deep to make this station, if they hadn't this stuff would just have stayed below ground because there was a whole city on top of this and it is not economically viable to just go dig for this stuff in the middle of the city.
The idea is that the streamers and major labels cannot be trusted to keep this available for future generations, so if we want to preserve our shared culture we should take matters into our own hands.
I think the negatives for artists are minimal while the benefits of preserving a annotated snapshot of contemporary music for future generations is very valuable.
