Stop using brain. This big corporate brain think for us. Think good.

Regarding "SQL is not typed": as a matter of fact you can always type-check your queries against a transaction. If it fails, there's your syntax and type error right there. If it doesn't fail, then it either reads, or also modifies the database. But when you are in a transaction, you can simply not commit the transaction. You're always isolated. You can always check your SQL, safely.

BTW the author doesn't know what the word "liability" means.

As for Post-ORM, like ORM it treats the DB as a hidden implementation detail, which means no free interaction with existing DBs and uneasy solutions when something isn't in your abstraction, but it's trivial in the database itself. This approach has its place, but it doesn't seem like Post-ORM as much as a continuation of what ORM did in the first place, including many of the problems following.

You have to break down a problem to GPT just like you would to a human, and if it misunderstands you or asks you, you'd have to elaborate just the same. It's modeled after us, after all. The rubber duck is a stand-in for a human. GPT also is. But just a vastly better one.

This is our path yes. All paths end, eventually, but oh well.

I've spent 20 years explaining my code to a rubber duck and getting great use out of that duck. No one will ever convince me that it's less useful now when the duck actually has read the Internet and has useful suggestions and ideas back to share. Even if it makes shit up on an occasion.

Just ignore this fella, GPT-4 is massively useful. But it takes intelligence to get intelligence out of it.

I very much doubt the tweet in question is of someone who loved GPT-4 yesterday, and has "fallen out of love" with it starting today.

For someone so dismissive of "neurotypicals" you did the neurotypical thing and drop a hot take before clicking the link.

China, you can have Elon all for yourselves.

Good but I can never finish them. Especially when they deliberately keep beating around the bush for 20 tweets, as if someone is paying them by the number of tweets I've glanced. It's insufferable.

We're discussing performance. Dynamic types do not mean no type errors while you write code. It means the types can be variant at runtime.

Except this is bs because modern jit outperforms C and C++ compiled code in some cases. Dynamic types mean the constraints are known later. It doesn’t mean they’re never known. And when they’re known you can partially reduce.

Indeed, the baseline should be what Musk & his investors paid in reality.

Which is about... $50 billion so far (and growing), including money he poured into Twitter (by selling extra TSLA) to keep it afloat. And they keep piling on debt and lawsuit over unpaid contracts, rent, licenses and bills.

It's hilarious.

We have this thing called an iris, dude.

Also a sun at noon is 1.6 BILLION nits. Just so you have some perspective for your hot takes.

He literally said remote... "work doesn't work". Do we comprehend how primitive the discussion level is here? I know it's twitter, but this is basically a parody of the debate around remote work.

Some jobs require isolation, some require interaction, most require switching between both in a semi-structured semi-stochastic manner, and we can't just decide "work doesn't work" without specifics like... what kind of work, and in what kind of organization.

This is just noise produced by stupid people trying to have a hot take on everything they barely understand. Like politics talk in a pub.

Palantir is valued billions and they've only sold a dozen copies of their software, so...

Elon currently looking for who the hell removed that 1%.

Automation doesn't mean "on their own".

For example when a video is transcribed to text by AI, that's automation. Doesn't mean you can't have a human editor fix the mistakes.

When AI does legal discovery for an attorney, that's automation. Doesn't mean the attorney doesn't verify what the AI discovered, or its conclusions.

Even with "classic" computers, machines, machines fail, so you need someone monitoring them and maintaining them.

When your immediate circle is in constant panic about a terrible inhumane, immoral enemy that is, reportedly, destroying them and their way of life, I invite you to stand up and say "can't we just get along with them?"

This is a cultural, emotional, informational bubble, and when you're inside it there's only one correct way to act, and that is to virtue signal that you hate the other bubble.

In other words, it's not that simple.

"Broader perspective" is probably not the right word. It's distinctly two extremely narrow perspectives.

Broader perspectives requires lower temperature, and moderation, but I don't mean the kind that mass shadowbans accounts on social media. I mean the kind where intelligent people come together based on shared interests and have a conference, a club, form a discussion group and so on. And they have the ability to protect their whisper from the noise of millions screaming trolls outside. Twitter isn't built for this. It never was, but now it's even less built for it.

Twitter is currently seemingly 90% hot takes and hustling marketers doing those cringe "AI is crushing your industry, see 20 reasons why" type of threads.

The word "oblivious" was invented to describe opinions like yours.

You can't offer something and then say "retroactively delete it unless you pay a new insane price". I'm so glad Musk is not a politician with any say in important matters. But as the owner of large social media, he's dangerously close.

You can get it for free. $42/k is intentionally ridiculous I presume. First, it's yet another infantile reference to 4/20, and second it's out of range for all researchers.

It all depends on the gameplay and execution. Green-lightining something and then "losing confidence" is probably the worst of all options.

Nothing says "winning" like being forced out of 27 developed economies.

I like how none of this is positive. It's clearly meant to be read both ways.

He's clearly not as smart as people imagine him to be. Thera are countless approaches to try and they are mostly based on existing knowhow about encoding to avoid injection.

Do you think they're delusional enough to think everyone would start paying huge amounts of money instead and keep the API? But then again no wonder someone who paid 44 billion for Twitter might think tweets are worth a lot of money.

Recruiting company yes. Not a native speaker so my small language model decided "hiring company" sounds fine.

LOL, your hustle is entertaining.

Over the past 6 months I believe any reasonable person who is still there is quite comfortable with the thought they may get fired at any point for whatever.
