"it's AI's fault"

I missed when AI became accountable for Postgres releases, when did that happen?

Nothing could go wrong

load bearing comment

Of all the mistakes he made, you'd think at the most minimum he would have thought to use Claude instead of ChatGTP

If everyone lives on UBI, and all work is automated, who are the consumers? That's some kind of closed communist system that doesn't work. Or maybe it does with AI actually able to centralise everything? Doesn't feel right though.

Is "American" a nationality where maybe "North American" a geography? I don't think Diplodocus has US citizenship...

Pascal? The programming language?

huh funny name that. When I hiked a glacier in Norway, dead mice (and other things) were everywhere under the ice. I assumed that's what the title was referring to.

I think you're conflating complex and complicated. An OS is very complicated but is predictable. An LLM is complex and not necessarily understandable.

it's a bug, in authentication

it feels kind of like a concept car a large manufacturer would show off at a motor show. Everyone knows there is no intention to actually ship that thing, but they're exploring concepts and technology and trying to make inroads in what comes next.

I don't know... I've been coding for ~30 years, and I've never had to write code to compute the median so it doesn't seem that useful unless it's somehow relevant to the job

that link doesn't exist anymore? what did it say?

can't even do onlyfans

this looks awesome, great work!

So I thought gravity was basically the curvature of spacetime. But if there's a "gravity" particle, those two things seem mutually exclusive?

Can someone who understands this please explain it to me, thanks!

we keep moving the goalposts, and that's not a bad thing.

remember when Doom came out? How amazing and "realistic" we thought the graphics were? How ridiculous that seems now? We'll look back at ChatGPT4 the same way.

eventually, we'll be able to eliminate the intermediate "computer", and just let the ai render everything we need to interact with

damn this is old internet. love it!

I live in a very hot location, and I also happen to like going for long runs. I've long known, if I took my dog with me on my run, it would kill him. Even though he's a fit young dog, there's no way he can handle the heat at running pace for that length of time.

we're probably ~10 years away from replicants. in 20years there's going to be millions of tesla humanoid robots all over the place

“It shows that he, to some extent, has the cognitive capacities that he needs to treat the wound with some medically active plants,” she said. “But we really don’t know how much he understands.”

This could apply to many humans too. Many people don't know why they're doing what they're doing, and don't have any understanding of how what they're doing works.

We're really not _that_ much smarter than them.

puts on the movie industry

nice try Iran

lets say we did this, and we got the tiny probes up to even ~speed of light... then what are they going to do when they get there? what sensors can they carry and report back. And we wouldn't be able to slow them down, so they're going to transit through the target solar system relatively quickly (days even).

I heard recently that BMW have back pedaled from subscriptions due to the massive backlash, so maybe that's a small win? don't know

Google is the next Blackberry, it just hasn't happened yet. Unless they can get a Nadella, and really transform the company asap, they're in a death spiral.

why would Israel want to bring down Optus in Australia? Seems like they've got better things to do at the moment

i love this idea of storing a trail of smaller and smaller data, almost forcing them to invent microscopes to keep reading...

When you dig into it, there are very few truths. Who "won" the last US election? Where did covid come from?

Humans will argue the right answer until their last days. It's frustrating how on-the-fence chatgpt can be. It's pretty interesting too, because in a professional environment one of the most important things you need to do is have an opinion and take a position otherwise you can't execute.
