At these pricing levels, corporations who use the models will need to ensure employees are using them efficiently. I know, where I work, we don't really think about the cost to the company when using copilot chat, but sounds like it c

This resonates with me. I'm a Mechanical Engineer who loves the process of coding. I did take an intro to business class in undergraduate though, and my professor said one thing that has stuck with me for 30+ years - 'The fundam

Yeah, I was just thinking of a very popular bar that I would go to about 15 years ago that was operated on very simple touch screens with large UI buttons. The bartenders could enter drinks & the tab it goes on very fast. It wasn&#x27

That could be the case, but I work in a mechanical engineering group as the only person on the team who can write code or automate things with it. We're in a large corporation with a sizeable IT support group that builds a decent chun

Yeah, if you're in a large metro area (I was about 1 hour from the Atlanta distribution center), they would often ship SAME DAY if you ordered by about 10am. It was amazing, and very convenient during chaotic times when you forgot to

If it could wash my dishes & do my laundry, if this was actually feasible, but that's probably pretty far off.

I don't think this is a fair criticism of Stoicisim. It definitely doesn't say ignore the outside world or things you can't change, rather acknowledge and accept them to allow the capacity to focus on the things you can chan

I think its because advanced degrees fast track the immigration process, and the better paying jobs are in the US. Those born in the US get a bachelors degree and then a job (probably to pay off the student debt). For a non-US born person
