yeah I wouldn't be able to put food on the table if my employer didn't have exclusive license to the glue we use to stick together all that open source code we rely on. Which we now generate exclusively using AI, products of which

Excuse me for being dense but I'd love to know more, if you can share. So you offer a voice agent for checking appointments and orders and stuff, is that through your app or website or something? So you make a button in your app which

Exactly. Without Claude and GPT, we'd be limited to Grok. A lot of ink has been spilled telling us exactly how to use Sonnet, Opus, Sol or Luna in certain scenarios, Grok hasn't ever been recommended by our pointy haired friends e

God I hope so. My workplace enforces Cursor use, and to see it lose GPT and Claude would absolutely make my day. Much has been invested in getting us to "use the right models", a list in which Grok does not feature.

Bin chicken is local slang for these horrible birds ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_white_ibis ), and “go full x” is also a common utterance, but I’ve never heard them said together like that.

why not version control those things? if they're static, there's no changes so version controlling them has little cost. maybe existing tools aren't adequate for this conception of the world, but I don't think that'

Having also worked in a public position like that, there are so many dumb things that go on that didn't need to but the idea of pretending a 1hr job would take 40 would be unconscionable. 1hr jobs could routinely take 10 because of pap

You could just light the money on fire instead and get the same result. Contractors routinely screw the tax payer. I once had a job in one of these third parties where the entire operation was effectively defrauding the tax payer by claimin

Most of us aren't making software with fatal consequences. Most. I'd say the typical aviation job offers a few more chances for fatal consequences.

Do you have any smarthome stuff? Standing around waiting 30 seconds for your light to come on would be moronic. A complete regression over the electric switch invented in 1884. I'd rip everything out right then and there. Your home sho
