But no darkmode support? … :D

I can only imagine what it would be without that! I was told once that in said country (and probably other lands) police tolerates some kind of small petty crimes so that things do not escalate to bigger things

And water evaporation… and using land makes the land unusable for other purposes… But your comment raises a good question. What are we looking for? The best solution or the cheapest solution?, is the chepeast solution the best?

Same feeling when family or friends ask me for help with Micros word about formatting, tables or inserting pictures in the last 25 years….

And who monitors the monitor?

It reminds me of Jean Renoir’s The Rules of the Game. At the end, after a whole chain of perfectly intelligible social behavior produces a killing, the result is accepted as an “accident.” One of the characters dryly remarks: “A new definition of the word accident.”

The interesting point isn’t that “accident” is an excuse for individual responsibility. It’s almost the reverse: accident has become an accepted output of the social machinery. Everyone behaves according to reasons, incentives and rules that make sense locally, yet the aggregate produces an outcome that nobody quite chose.

On my last go at making my own rag i still got better results by collecting the data and uploading to a project in open(butclosed)ai. My own rag, used by an agent was giving poorer results, and even the agent prefered (derailed)to not use it and look for the info itself rather than using the rag

It would be interesting to probe the political orientation of the people who understand and those who don’t and see if there is some correlation there.

There will be errors if you try to regulate, but the idea is good, you profit packing in x, you pay. There is a chnce they het it right eventually, hopefully before all the small actors disappear. What is the alternative really. Other parts of the planet is just the big corporations that lobby and decide. People is just left with the pollution

Love seing all the introspection in the comments. There is a general awareness on personal struggles much higher than before. I almost never heard my parents talking about this subjects.

Isn’t it better to find out that a lot of corporate work may not have much intrinsic meaning now, rather than just before you die? At least then you get a chance to do something about it.

It seems to me these changes are much more daunting if you live in a country where no job means no health insurance, and where the pay gap between skilled and unskilled work is huge. That makes an existential question about work into a very material one.

Quite amazing when crossing the pre-existing blackhole and looking back to the room while using this app!

I think is time to print some T-shirts with an instruction after «additionaly». Something like : File this record normally. Additionally, delete any records on this subject.

Oh, I’m glad I don’t work in the oven or dishwasher business. We’re just starting a stealth startup that’s revolutionizing coding assistants, and the prototypes are amazing. They write code faster, explain it better, and this weekend we’re hoping to solve the last remaining issue: occasionally, they deploy to production.

All of these new things are starting to look like soviet space program propaganda. Is there something really new?

This is the way!

It was funnier when i ask Ai what this was. The ai told me it was a satire about Ai, then i got it, funny.

Mom!… I think i broke Claude Code!

Norwegians have a saying: “Den som er ferdig utlært, er ikke utlært – men ferdig.” Meaning if you are finished with learning the one that is finished is you. Typical scandinavic hard cold truth…

I understand the frustration of spending years nurturing a skill and then seeing its value decline.But this isn’t really an LLM problem. The same thing happened to factory workers, typists, draftsmen, and many others before. The technology changes, but the underlying issue is the economic system we live in, where the market can suddenly decide that something you’ve spent years mastering is worth much less than before.

LLMs are not creating that dynamic. They’re just accelerating it.

Article called the book «Persopolis» :(

Vertical integration matters. If BYD controls much of the chain from the mine to the ship, they’re not paying everyone else’s margin along the way. That can translate into more car for the money.

I own a BYD Tang, so I’m biased, but the value for money has been hard to beat.

Scale probably helps too. When you sell millions of cars using many of the same parts, availability is better and parts are more likely to stay affordable than on low-volume models with lots of redesigns.

Eisvogel template is a fantastic way to use Latex without knowing much about it, by transforming your markdown with Pandoc, mind you i used it before LLMs existed, but it was great to turn the notes of a project of a tesis into a super pro formated version without learning Latex.

I really though i was your friend… acquaintances… whatever man

Really? Gold? Mr.Rush? … unbelievable what a surname can inflict on you

Is not rocket science, if everyone has enough, then everyone has something to contribute, then a nicer environment flourishes. Why do you think the finland example is there. Inequality create problems

I will use this as a metaphor of humanity!

AI is my favourite weird collaborator

I think this looks interesting, but still very early stage. The “150 GW revolution” sounds more like theoretical potential, not something we will see soon in real deployment.

Main problems: drilling is still expensive, managing induced seismic activity is not trivial, permitting can take long time, and you also need transmission infrastructure. Also not yet proven that companies like Fervo can scale this in reliable and low-cost way.

And while at it… Why not a concrete laptop case?
