There's zero evidence to support the notion that LLMs help deliver software quicker.

Source code transpilers were a thing since forever. We'd guess that LLMs probably make them cheaper, but there's no real world data on this.

$30T seems like a lot, but Anthropic and OpenAI will need to be making ten times that to match investor expectations.

> A timely reminder that, damn, China is olllldddd. China proper starts about 1000 BC, so China is quite a bit younger than Europe. (Whatever "Europe" is.)

Don't worry about it, the very best Claude tokens designed, implemented and tested it. What are you, some sort of luddite?

You're confusing "ally" and "vassal". Allies are countries that send troops to help you in war.

MIDI is a protocol, and it's not ever going away or being replaced. Some protocols (like I2C or MIDI) are gonna be with humanity forever, probably.

> Games were still being released for the SNES at this point, so imagine the contrast! SNES games aged a lot less than those silly DOS games. (I mean that SNES games look more sleek and "modern" today.)

Yes, the modern pointy-haired boss thinks he's the next Steve Jobs visionary and will pitch his shitty internal ERP automation tool project as "the next sleek iPhone-like UI". (Wish I was joking.)

LLMs are next token predictors. They predict the next most likely token given the previous context window of N tokens. This means not giving an answer is not a technically possible option. Best you can do is force it to output a magic &quot

If k8s works for you, then go for it. But k8s was invented so that "dev" and "ops" teams could play nicely when they are different org structures, with their own budgets, deadlines, etc. If it solves some technical issue

Kubernetes doesn't solve any technical problem, so the language it's written in is irrelevant.

It's a reaction. Nobody would be "anti-AI" if AI wasn't being shoved into everything while at the same time shaming you like you're stupid for not enjoying literal slop.

> Containers do solve dependency hell by isolation. Only if they isolate each atomic package individually. Which is exactly what Nix is and what Docker isn't .

AI slop is cringe and bad. (From an artistic point of view.) You can't force people to like it.

Containers don't solve dependency hell. They just give you a standard way to ship your bespoke bash scripts. If you like writing bash scripts then go for it. (Personally I'd rather be doing literally anything else, like, I don&#x2

That's a software engineering problem. They just need to figure out how to fine-tune for alignment and tool usage. That's the only thing the normie consumer cares for really.
