Computers and AIs can't be held responsible.

I take it you've never been to Japan... Wouldn't wanna live there permanently. Wouldn't want to have been born Japanese. But my god the products and services are head and shoulders…

Was left stranded in Berlin last night trying to get home to a neighboring city, which should have taken 45 minutes (more like 1h20 nowadays due to time tables and whole regional t…

This was also my first thought when reading the title: because Claude is a tool you use and co-workers are either competitors or people preferably dependent.. an anti-pattern and n…

Yeah it does feel like much tech competence that sprouts in Germany is either sequestered off and penned in, and/or leaves the country.

> disagree with the fact that skill and taste are correlated > lots of amazing engineers have an awful taste in everything that is not their immediate field of knowledge or interes…

During the first World War, Belgium divided in its Dutch (Flemish) and French (Walloonian) speaking constituents, had many such Walloonian officers rule over often Flemish soldiers…

Муч лике хов Ю кан/кулд спел Енглиш ин Кирилик.. but who in their right mind actually does that?

surely that cat's out of the bag by now; and it's too late to make an active difference by boycotting the production of more public(ly indexed) code?

> Imagine that the only PC you could buy one day has everything tightly integrated with no user serviceable or replaceable parts without a high-end soldering lab. So.. a smart phon…

While you still can..

This is akin to a psychopath telling you they're "sorry" (or "sorry you feel that way" :v) when they feel that's what they should be telling you. As with anything LLM, there may or…

Likewise, I tested this with a project we're using at work ( https://deepwiki.com/openstack/kayobe-config ) and at first it seems rather impressive until you realize the diagrams d…

.. and because the job and environment weren't that pleasant or rewarding to offset that delta in income offered elsewhere at an equally drab employer

That's exciting! I didn't catch that from the pricing page, thank you for clarifying :)

The people working on these things likely don't use the end product.

Sadly as with many such products, if you want SSO and the like, you'll still end up paying per user per month. That gets stupid expensive quick

Let's be honest; how many Slack messages or conversations older than 2-3 weeks still have value?

I was baffled by the comparison to the M4 Max. Does this mean that recent AMD chips will be performing at the same level, and what does that mean for on-device LLMs? .. or am I mis…

"I don't like it" "I don't want it to be so" "I don't want this thing which I'm inept at to be real; it's unscientific!"

That's one hell of a term to mean being afraid of being alone.

I always seem to upset a lot of people when I bring up my take/experience on this because they seem to find it (psychologically) threatening. Labels such as ADHD seem to have value…

You could do that, but then you're being wilfully dishonest with yourself. At which point you'll find that you're not getting any closer to your goals (assuming those who switch ou…

Yes, German work/employment culture is a crab barrel where every quality of life improvement has to be fought for tooth and nail.. The Netherlands cemented WFH as a right after the…

I'm sorry but that sounds like "wet pavements cause rain" to me. The naming need not be causative in that direction. I'm not disagreeing with that we did indeed evolve with them.. …
