You are exactly right, I don't want to create just an LLM experience. I want to create a system where the artist/game-developer creates a world, and the main threads of a story(think of it like a prophecy) which constraints the player to a world/setting and a set of abilities/actions, but other than that the player should be able to say and do whatever they want.

Experience: 4+ years

Full-stack developer with 4+ years of experience building scalable web infrastructure and AI-powered applications. Led technical development at DAITECK, architecting full-stack solutions from concept to deployment. At EXTENDI, I delivered high-performance React applications for clients like Lego and government agencies. Expertise in Ruby on Rails, modern JavaScript ecosystems, and agile methodologies.

Looking for: Full-time roles, preferably with startups with equity as part of the compensation.

Would a simple solution, like demanding that anyone who isn't in your contact list pay a relatively substantial amount (like $5, or even $0.5), in order to contact you, and you are the one that decides if to return that money when the call ends or to keep it for yourself (send it to a charity/pay taxes).

This would also cripple a lot of business in advertising, but not a big loss, if someone really wants to talk to you, they can pay the price.

What am I missing? Why would this not work? What side effects on other industries could there be?

Too many steps, why do I have to signup? Why do I have to create an engine.

Remove all of this, just let me directly use your app, I want to search and create engines on the fly.

I don't need to save them for future uses, if I am not going to use your app even once.

If you want this to take off, it needs to just work, no extra steps unless I want to.

You have the fast approach and the really fast approach.

1) Use libraries like ShadCn that give you all of the functionality that you need for the components. Use Tailwind or other frameworks, to change the styling of these components to fit your application theme. Using the components and theme, let Claude 3.7 design the apps for you, it is good enough to get you to pretty decent and custom pages that do (mostly) work. If there is a specific page that you don't like, then you can redesign it.

2) Do the designs in Figma, and then use Builder.io to convert the designs directly into code, use Cursor to fix anything that builder has broken.

Of course, the 2 methods above can be mix and matched, this is what I have personally used in both startups and more established company projects.

Honestly, if you are a small/medium startup, just having things like: 1) Eslint (any comprehensive linter) 2) Clear enough instructions (or a framework) on where different parts of the application should go 3) Clear instructions on how the branches should be handled and merged 4) CI/CD on Pull Requests 5) Comprehensive tests on the core business logic (mostly on the backend). 6) Maybe some regression tests just to make sure that nothing on the frontend breaks

All pretty standard stuff, and you can set it up in a day, a lot of the boring work can be done by LLMs, so you won't have to waste a lot of time on it.

I find that just doing the above things gives a project enough stability, and it gives the developers enough courage to refactor with confidence and ship relatively fast.

At the end of the day Software Architecture is a craft, if a system is not working for you or your team (or you don't understand why you are doing something), then you want to look at changing it.

From here to the next 10 years or so, the bet is on Medical-Help. Almost every country in the world is struggling with constant under-staffing, populations are growing older, while pay for Nurses is going down. Now with AI technologies becoming more and more reliable, the biggest pain point to solve is Healthcare.

Shitty hit piece, nothing to do with brave new world (doubt the author has even read it), you can go claim your check from whatever think-tank hired you.

No audio of the actual thing. How loud is this?

I think it's important for a small minority of people. Most of the population does not give a second thought, as long as it doesn't affect their lives in an obvious way. Most people are fine sharing their data, if it leads to better more personalized ads, most people gladly share their personal information on social media.

Data privacy is of course very important, but not something the general public is super interested in.

Defeatist mentality.

The author doesn't give any practical solution to the problem, or things anyone could do to improve their specific or general situation, we call that whining.

Until there is physical evidence that can be confirmed by third parties of other nations, we should just treat the entire thing as PsyOps. The existence of Alien civilizations at a level of development so far from us that they would be Gods is such an outrageous claim, that it would need outrageous amounts of evidence.

Taking the words of Government officials who have the blessing of the military to "whistleblow" is just not good enough.
