Shocking! That TiVo still exists.

Cute. Makes no sense.

Your choices; the river styx or a pathway through hell, past Lucifer’s castle.

Let me rephrase that for you:

“When the owners of Bengaluru heritage work failed to back up their previous work, it was lost when accidentally deleted”

Do you notice something? Pay close attention to the detail. It’s hard to spot….. I did not blame AI/Claude.

Memory.

Then as now it’s memory that matters.

Anyhow if you want a brand new Commodore 64 get it here:

You sir shall be my loyal adviser and Master of Assassins.

It’s something of a pity NASA doesn’t offer that chance to crush 1,000 independent peace loving democratic galaxies in my brutal rise to power as my soldier fanatics sweep the universe.

I’d pay for that. More exciting than owning a pixel.

Imagine the headlines NASA To Sell the Universe.

Yes, I would wear that little emperors hat too.

I wish to be named Emperor of One Thousand Galaxies.

Slightly off topic but you can also use a SLIC module to talk to old phones:

You should ask it to move Mount Fuji.

What a ridiculous gaslighting question.

Asking us to prove that cats killing wildlife is a bad thing.

A guy once told me that they remove the fallen logs from the Canadian forests because fallen trees are messy and ruin the forest. How do you even respond to such a stupid concept?

Did you test it with a pelican on a bicycle or something that is, you know, relevant to the work people do?

Why use any AWS for a startup?

Why use AWS for any size company?

“Ethics” and “Silicon Valley” like oil and water.

Another AI hater making a fool of themself.

Look, it’s fine to be anti AI. You don’t need to justify it.

But when you say it’s bad at programming then you’re just proving your own ignorance. Honestly saying AI can’t program in the same breath as saying you don’t use it makes you look like a fool.

Be anti AI - no problem with that, just don’t be an ignorant ill informed fool.

Sauron warns against Saruman.

Could Microsoft Word become conscious?

>> make them reflect on their behaviour and what impact it had.

I would not do that. I’d just assume that if they behave in unexpected ways then that means I failed to explain the expectations of myself/society.

Weirdly, this post speaks for everyone.

I raised my child with a zero punishment policy.

No punishment, ever, of any sort.

The world has changed.

This is not a genie you can put back in a bottle.

Cause they are anti LLM and it seems such people need to not just have their stance but whack everyone with it.

Scratch is so bad I think it must put kids off.

It makes zero sense to start people off in an actually bad programming environment.

Try Snap! Instead of Scratch.

It’s well known ultra training destroys your heart.

In any sport.

They tested the blood of marathon runners and found heart attack markers in many of them because the heart muscle is being damaged and healing and scarring and hardening the muscle leaving young ultra trainers with the heart of an 80 year old.

The best modern advice is don’t overtrain.

Is he worried?

Dario is always deeply worried.

I read somewhere he is the Woody Allen of AI.

Maybe if you get it to ride a pelican on a bicycle you’ll get a better result.

Gemini has lost the race to be relevant for AI coding.

AI needs typing.

Also AI does not benefit from abstractions such as ORMs - you are far better to have your AI write SQL.

That goes for all abstractions including CSS JavaScript and everything else Rails has wrapped.

Golang with raw SQL CSS JavaScript works really well cause it avoids many abstractions and affordances that Rails makes to humanize programming.

I can imagine the packaging of it being sold commercially
