I'm an atheist, but if there's a God then I am grateful to her for granting me the wisdom to pay off my house before retiring instead of investing that money in some horseshit. Its a shelter from storms, both physically and metaph

Google tells me that Klong and Lisp are not the same thing. But can someone tell me why an array in Klong is NOT like an s-expression in Lisp?...

My mental model of the 'new normal' is end users using AI to get their work done. So if I re-worded the OP's description and replaced 'internal tools' with 'internal AIs' then this would at least seem like

The article summed itself up as 'Context is everything". But the article itself also makes the point that a human assistant was also necessary. That's gonna be my take away.

Not true. I give money to the government against my will. Same for the rent, the utility company, the water company etc. Most people give what other people can force them to pay to survive.

This decision only makes sense it saves more lives than the number of lives that will be lost because of it. It seems to me like it should totally be possible to do the math here and figure it out. Compute the lives saved and compute as ma

I suspect that Jef Raskin would not be down with "prompt engineering' at all. I think that Mr Raskin's opinion would be that it should be obvious how to use a piece of software.

I get that the headline is misleading. Still, is the fact that Britain is doing well a validation of Brexit?

As the US is being torn down for fun and profit it seems like I've seen Vannevar Bush's name pop up more and more frequently. It seems that this dude had a huge influence on the shape of our society.

I predict the same thing, that publishing new APIs will be rare, but for a different reason. People will stop publishing any new knowledge or method to keep it from the LLMs and to keep people from exploiting new ideas before they can.

Wow! I was unfamiliar with Z and just spent an hour going down the Z and B-Method rabbit hole. That's exactly the kind of thing I was looking for, thanks!

Well, I think this is a really good point. I'm not in favor of banning games but I really cant discern the difference between a playing a game and interacting with an AI.

I would be concerned that I'd get out of school and not get a job because I don't actually know anything. But I wouldn't blame students if they're not preparing for interviews and jobs. Because in this world having a j

Just look at the assholes that run this country. They set the standards. They lie and cheat their asses off every day. You can't reasonably expect that people WONT lie and cheat their asses off.

We should probably require AI to always be able to explain it's conclusions. That way we can quickly assimilate knowledge from the AI and theoretically always have at least as much knowledge as the AI. I suppose it also means that we c

I'm not convinced that I should worry about people that would let AI run their lives. They're gonna pay the price for their foolishness, and paying the price is the universe's mechanism for keeping itself in balance. Take wha

PS... I've been waiting for such tools for 40 years. I just now realized that vibe coding is probably the closest we'll get in my lifetime. It's a start I guess.

I dont want to prove that my code is correct. I would prefer to create specifications in logic and have the code derived for me. Other than something like Prolog, are there tools for working this way?

I think that MCPs are awesome. I also think that they wont get much adoption, just like OSGi. In general, people have shit for brains and MCP is just too abstract a concept for their tiny turds.
