this is an oddly dismissive comment that says more about the commenter then what is commented on. generating an ai image is vastly more costly than loading a webpage…but still not that costly compared to most other things. this is depressin

Idk I find it almost painful how obvious it is to the point of borderline embarrassment. It is like when MUI/bootstrap/tailwind came out and made it increasingly easier for no design chop folks to press a button and get a decent d

i think people took this too literally. To put it another way, comments are for irreducible complexity ir external systems outside your control. I work between systems and app dev. Systems have comments more often esp in shaders but my god

Only recently came across this guy and if u ignore the standard social media hyper hype hype he has, I dont think he is wrong even his 2024 predictions. US has 1.5x the money supply since Covid. This means everything has to go up 1.5x to re

as others have pointed out, the reality is not this. id go further and say almost all comments are evil. Excuse me if I am harsh, read the damn code. If you do not understand the language, that is a skill issue. If the code is confusing, th

do people on here not know that things like forbes 30 under 30 are a pay to play game? do they not know that 90% of car influencer reviews are carefully curated by mrketing agencies? and yes apple is notoriously controlling about it too whi

Having done exactly this for adding accessibility into a crypto wallet in the past, (yes crypto wanted even the disabled), it is plainly obvious why this is not standard. It is an absolute train-wreck trying to get everything to work and fo

Classics are still there, at least they were for me. Then again, i didnt have the pleasure of experiencing American public education. As much as i do agree, overtime language does eventually change but it can happen over our dead bodies

I bet cost is of no issue with the capx where it is at. It is almost certainly organizational. Meta throws money at every problem and it never seems to workout for them.

The guy that was part of FTX, fired from openai for alleged theft, got billions in a hedge fund somehow then lost billions. Why are all these people so scummy? It is like voting Trump three times in a row.

I added to the memory, system prompts, and the prompt itself and every soa model still litters code with the most inane useless crap. I will then get code to review from a coworker using fable/opus. It has more lines of comments then c

Yes and no. I can think of easily three decision or inflection points in my life where if i went left instead of right, id be a multi millionaire. I can think of even more where my life direction would have been radically different. Luck pl

I disagree. Education is about culture and not access. Even when books were rare, families that valued education (even more rare) would do better. Learning about the world gives you an edge, full stop. Cultures that highly value education,

Wrong year as in landing on a giant generational recession at the time period in life when people usually accelerate or maybe a world wide pandemic landing in your formative years. Wrong year is a much smaller time scale. An example more cl

Controversial/low quality are both subjective and i am not a fan of putting controversial next to low quality. I do agree I dont think there is any larger bias other than a homogeneous group but it does question if such a group will up

You are wrong and they are wrong but that is ok.

This is an ultra cop out. There are standards in language that are not all “left means right for me so you cannot assume when i say right it is right and not left” This whole thread around loc is depressing. It speaks volumes of some people

It is. And the quality is on par with any us eng. People here forget that the big comp packages are a minority even in the US. The cost tho is much higher than just salary.

I mean some fetishes have science behind why they exist. For example, the part of the brain that process feet is located next to the area that processes genitals. At least, some are explainable. Some are not.

it originated way earlier as a way to help people who have naturally small nasal passages. i guess both mewing and chewing help widen passages. The book breath goes into details but from the perspective of health and not looks. This has bee

This is insane to me. Not every engineering job is entry level or as simple as most fullstack crud. Deeper into industry you find highly specific well defined positions for a given domain. Soft skills matter more the higher the ladder but i

Some of us do work on web apps not websites. Two different things. Websites should not be web apps. Web apps should take advantage of links when possible. The rigid mentality of everything in a browser must conform to some supercilious stan

This is silly. Iirc there is a big dif between poaching people for ip and telling people to lie keep working download and physically steal ip. Open ai is not a hero. Open ai is the kind of intellectual property theft and i hope the entire t

Can it be undone? One of the key aspects of any society is that it can in fact change law/policy/leaders/etc without war/rebels. yes harm happens when bad crap gets in but if the system still supports change, it is worki

Woof. Back before rust was a thing in uni all the c++ guys shat on the newbies using java and not a real language. The entire rust vs c++\c vs zig vs odin etc is so stupid. Like it is the same culture that has always been there in elitist s

Rust will never be the dominant output by a country mile. It will be python and typescript.
