I am currently transliterating a language PDF into a formatted lexicon, I wouldn't even be able to do this without co-pilot, it has turned this seemingly impossibly arduous task into a pleasurable one.
He was in and out of mental asylums for about 10 years, and recently has just went missing.
I still take drugs when I want to, and don't advocate against them.
My rough advice is to just wait until you are at least 25, follow the safe, sound, setting tips, and always premeditate on what you about to do before you do it.
You can cache a lot more than you think if you mastermind your strategy.

Even if you just grew potatoes you would likely be starving.

I believe there is about 2000 active players still.
Played a few ages a couple years ago, thinking about kicking back in.
It is complete nerd warfare, imagine 25 with people warring 25 other people through spread sheets in a fantasy context.
It probably has the hardest learning curves of any game ever made, but the community is really strong and encouraging.
Typescript has done nothing for me.
Just a religious battle at this point.
(I'm okay with it on the server, but client side is just something something)
Great work!
Plenty of personal open source projects I've wanted to attempt writing a more scientific explanation of.
I did go down the route of "Fragile Earth Theory" stuff, but have now come full circle to understand how powerful modern farming is.
Modern farmers know exactly what is going on with their crops, concerns about top soil are moot from what I've seen.
You can grow plants in air, as long as you give them what they need, they don't need or want a more "natural" biological landscape.
A lack of "black gold" is no problemo, plants love a sandy loam of sorts with nothing in it, everything else can be top fed.
On a more serious note, I'd be interested in a similar test that use's the auto agent stuff, can a sufficiently setup LLM answer any question.
"I am currently on leave" could be the Wikipedia page.
Otherwise, even just creating a function, generally they will be filled out automatically.
I suppose I'm quite big on naming (vars and functions)
Maybe if your language or code is more terse, it might struggle more.
It writes lots of code before I even think about what I was going to do in that file. Half the time it just works outright, and if not, with minor changes.
It is fantastic when I have to build functionality in languages I am not great at.
I regularly copy and paste code from my colleagues PR's and paste it into GPT-4, it explains it perfectly and gives tips on how to improve it (which I add as comments to my PR review)
It has made writing resumes with co pilot super powerful.
This is the sentiment I am getting from everyone. But it would seem to be the pot calling the kettle black.
Everyone is making an assumption off _their_ bias, I am asking for data before I decide.
Feel like I am taking crazy pills.

All I've seen is between 10-20 websites were tested by HN users.
And a whole lot of "inference" based off that.
Using ten domains as an example is not evidence. Did anyone check the millions of sites on the internet?
How do you know there were not lots of sites Elon "likes" that were being throttled?
Did anyone test more than 100 domains?
This could have easily been a bug.
e.g. a bug that was happening temporarily because an in memory cache was breaking for certain indexes.
Oh well, people like casting stones — personally I am going to wait for more of the facts.
(Note: I haven't said whether I like Elon or not)
(Edit: If my post is so disagreeable, I would love if someone could take the time to give me a short reply as to why)
Even using the word throttle is not an overly apt description. You can still open as many links as you like, there was just some delay. (semantics I know)
Down vote me too, but there is zero proof this was nefariously enacted.
As techies, we should know systems fail often in bizarre ways.
