It’s not about making money, it’s about making all the money. Stock holders will pressure to fire the guy that does that.

Ah, but that’s why US Big Tech is splooshing cash all over President Felon and hoping he saves them from evil communist European consumer protections.

He’s constantly checked with doctors and publishes the results.

Dude is another tech millionaire weirdo but may accidentally stumble upon some good data, maybe. Ordinary Things did a very interesting interview with him. Dude lives purely to hopefully extend his life, it’s weird.

The good old days of having kids and just knowing chances are stacked against most of them making it past toddler age.

There were hints. Dude played Mad Max and the loose-cannon crazy cop in Lethal Weapon. Is it acting or maybe he was born with it?

But they’ll kick and scream and run away from the actual medical miracle with a medically tested and proven vaccine.

I was going to joke Dell killed XPS a long, long time ago already.

It’s amazing how these very unregulated tech companies that have been proven time and time again to steal user data and mess up have this blind trust from the public.

Kind of a compromise for smaller countries that want to have a standing army. And some countries offer alternatives like civil service or paying additional taxes instead for those that don’t want to serve in the military.

The US having expensive higher education driving poorer people to join the military to afford it is bleaker honestly.

Michelle Obama tried tackling this and fast-food PR destroyed her with claims she was “fat shaming”.

There’s a huuuuuge lobby to fight in order to solve this and it should be tackled. But again, profits will be put before people’s health and lives.

The obesity problem in the US is so bad, the Army is facing issues finding enough recruits fit for service. There’s even a program to get people back into shape just so they can try to get into the Army.

Let’s suppose they somehow perfect LLMs to write code.

So now we can tell in plain English what our applications need to do! But English (and most human languages) are open to interpretation so our prompts need to be really detailed and unequivocal. Hum, wasn’t that the reason we made programming languages in the first place? In order to provide concise and unequivocal instructions to computers?

And as you say, LLMs don’t think, don’t have domain-specific knowledge they can apply, and don’t ask questions where things are unclear or problematic.

Crappy copy/pasta jobs for crappy applications will suffer but there will always be a place for talented programmers.

Indie devs have been there forever. Can’t compete on the AAA features? Compensate with interesting art and smart tech.

Especially not a lot of influencers willing to bite the hand that feeds them. That’s 23k going bye bye because they’re opted to give us a honest look at this abusive model instead.

As usual, GN willing to get in there and dig things out.

I’m sure he’ll attract a ton of talent. As if the game industry wasn’t bad enough with its employees, an Elon-ran game company would be something for the ages.

Let the first AAA woke game bomb.

You are mixing up unrelated things. Politics is a circus but that doesn’t mean the Government can’t do certain things well.

Something thankfully not all French-speaking countries agree. But the ground apple is pretty much universal. The alternative “patate” is also widely used,

Stuff from the “new world” (Americas) often got some weird names. Like the “Indian chickens” (turkeys).

German conspiracy wackos and American ones have a lot in common.

During COVID their bullshit ven diagram was a flat circle.

It’s complicated. They are three but they are one according to their dogma.

For me it’s a bullshit threshold: if you swallow this paradox, you’ll be ready to accept more.

Just like the “Nigerian prince scams”. Yes, they are obviously a scam to most of us. But to the few ignorant/naive people who don’t, they’re the victims worth pursuing by the scammers. We are not the audience.
