I can't readily find the HN post but the math posted was solething like 'Each prompt costs a bottle of water'. Now think about the logistics required to get that amount of water. AI usage currently does not scale well.

Time for Hashicorp Nomad to make its comeback?

Developers should now just use AI to beat the big tech co's at their own game. Prompt engineer products 10 times better than any offering from FAANG++. Even VC's aren't required!

I'm in the camp now that asks the question, if AI is so good, why are we still tethered to big tech? why hasn't an untrained human prompted a product out that is 10 times better than anything big tech has to offer. After all intelligence is free :-)

I fondly remember running beos5 PE on a computer with a amd k6 processor and ati tv wonder card. I think it was 400Mhz, maybe 600 and 192MB ram. Watched in awe as it purrr'd editing DVs from firewire and the turner. It was a glorious multimedia OS. BeDepot was awesome too! The ports for winamp (BeAmp), zsnes and genecyst/dgens were top notch. the hw support was great too. never had an issue with MS Sidewinder gamepad (gameport and usb versions).

ah dang. I keep reading "itchy boots".

Name reminded me of this awesomeness too:

Borg and K8s were fighting for resources, so Gemini decided to take out DNS. Now a sysAdmin has to step in.

* just trying to add a little humour. pretty stressfull outage. grarr!!

Am I the only noticing the OG Sidewinder gamepad in the design?

I was PIP'd out within 48hrs after vocalizing this sentiment. Now they are selling an enslopified AI centric product. Employee moral evaporated and yet the powers be deniably (sp) claim everything is fine. Fun times.

"One drop rule" makes everyone black in America

Perhaps, like the uber/lyft light-on signage, when FSD is engaged some sort of visual cue should activated on the exterior of the vehicle. It can be subtle like an extra set of LEDs eliminated either on the front or back. The end effect might be that other drivers will make it more predicable for FSD to safely navigate.

But I as one of other drivers should not have to change my driving habits just for elon to make more money.

The future is ensloptainment.

Yay! Terrible!

Meant to say "United States Alternative Intelligence Department, USAID". But either works (ツ)

I wouldn't worry much ... The new United States Artificial Intelligence Department, USAID gotz Uz Covered

If my 2p is worth it, I believe this framework is dynamic. This means that, on a quarterly basis or per project, members will organically slot into the mentioned types. Managers should be cognizant of this and allow it to happen, rather than fighting the natural order due to biases from past outcomes. There are rare situations where a manager or group has to explicitly slot people in.

Lastly, I like the content of this framework, and it reminds me a lot of "Total Football."

If you sleep next to cats or the other way round, you'll 'magically' start waking up at 4:30a ... almost on the dot!

"AInetes is coming"

The analogy I came up with when I first learned about kubernetes in its early days was: "This is like a Bally's Total Fitness gym membership. Once signed up, you're locked in."

Companies are like bodybuilders:

- Many will try to look like Arnold Schwarzenegger (Mr. Universe), but few will succeed. - A significant number of others will focus on developing certain muscle groups more than others. The resulting appearance will look disproportionate or deformed. - The majority will just limp along, because we're paying for the membership and can't easily get out.

The key point is that it takes incredible discipline, knowledge, and resources (including money) to achieve the "nirvana" state, and then maintain it. And as a company ages, it will require even more effort to keep up that level of fitness and performance.

Just like a bodybuilder, achieving and sustaining peak condition is extremely challenging, even for the most dedicated and well-resourced companies. Most will fall short of the ideal, resulting in an unbalanced or suboptimal outcome.

Consulting companies are the real winners here. Kubernetes is their cash cow, as they can provide the expertise to help companies (try) achieve and maintain their "bodybuilder" status.

After seeing this comic, my v2 analogy especially after seeing the motorcycle slides is this:

If I ( === company) get a Yamaha Tenere 700 I'll be just like Pol Tarres!

Guessing the individual riding the motorcycle is the IT director ... to me this depiction screams "motorcycle squid".

For the record, I am not against using Kubernetes, but I highly question the decisions made to use Kubernetes. Majority of the time I get the sense someone "drank the koolaid" vs a techincal reason. The analogy is meant to highlight the significant challenges, resources and discipline required to truly master and maintain such a complex system.

I believe this too! My brother is not a fan bananas and barely registers mosquito bites. Me on the other hand am pursued mercilessly. Could also be we have different blood types but the immediate evidence we've seen is bananas :)

i don't drink anymore but if offered i'd down without hesitation a wells banana bread beer or banana beer. tasty stuff

tbh, really never look into it but according to my taste buds it pairs better than regular milk.

Learnt from my grandmother to eat plenty bananas before bedtime. It helped with my asthma and swear too that it did wonders for my sleep.

Usually had it with a hot curry at dinner time or dessert (sliced bananas, cubed apples and evaparoted milk.)

AI is a cancer ... What Would Steve Ballmer say? Mmm

Mmm. Amazon lays off thousands of workers but drops 4Bil$ into another company. Mmm.

I have not worked with it but for a while now, considering its core functionality of database+forms+cases, have harbored the idea of repurposing it and using it to modernize areas in the healthcare industry. E.g. practice management

SysAdmin. Even AI needs a hero.
