For me, at least, despite being obviously powerful, I just can’t find anything useful to do with it beyond toys.

I haven't had time to inspect it myself, but off the top of my head, I'd be wary of taking their interpretation at face value.

CIS is an anti immigration think tank and Washington times is pretty blatantly conservative outlet. I’d be wary of those sources.

Well, this is all assuming a 20% down payment, which anecdotally as a 26 yr. old, nobody I know is able to achieve. All my home-owning friends put 3-7% down. Granted, most are using first-time homebuyer loans which are generally more favora

I didn't say it was. I don't know enough about the Tea Party to confidently give my opinion, I am a bit too young to have been politically aware when they were in their heyday as far as I know.

DSA is its own party; DSA affiliated candidates only run as democrats because the US system basically all but disallows third party success. I guarantee you that DSA members would not associate themselves with neoliberal Democrats at all, g

Why is that strange? To me, it’s evidence of growing dissatisfaction with the direction of the field and frustration with being made to deal with the consequences of others bad work

This is just rude, the poster clearly is asking for more information and isn't claiming to be an expert.

Out of curiosity, I asked Opus 5 to do the same with the first ~1.5 pages of Neuromancer by William Gibson, which I thought might be a good test of interpretation from the model. It refused to use the text verbatim because of copyright (iro

I'm glad you agree re: Oura/Garmin's tactics. Thank you for building on principles!

Oh yeah, I should've clarified, I mean via a REST API. I thought about building an app for myself to do what I wanted to do, but it's frustrating that I can't just set up a Cron on my homelab to pull my data. Unless I'm

My partner is an architect, and is really good with Unreal for this exact purpose. There's something magical, for a client, about being able to literally walk around the site rendered at Unreal-level fidelity, even if it's not VR.

For me, I want an open API I can pull my data from. Last I checked, you have to be a business to use Garmin's API. Apple certainly doesn't let you. My goal is to have a cron that runs on my homelab that pulls my health data into a

How could you? Can _someone_ in this thread _please_ provide a source?

by weakfish 2mo ago
...source? Please try and provide one for such strong claims.

Oh yeah, I mean I certainly think it’s a false premise. But it is a premise someone is giving.

Going to give a short reply to one point because I’m about to go to sleep (I try to make an effort to be honest as to why I’m not fully engaging with the entire comment) but re: strawman, I don’t think so. When Dario Amodei is saying SWEs w

I don’t doubt his expertise, I just am not convinced it’s the right tool. To me it comes back to the premise I hear a lot from AI hype men (of which I do not subscribe but it’s worth clarifying that I find great value in using it for code)

Next time, try being polite, it’ll make me way more inclined to engage with you. If I missed your point it was unintentional. Instead of being rude, try gentle clarification. But now I’ve lost interest. Have a good day!
