I have no idea if this was LLM assisted or not, but it fits my expectation of what will happen when skilled developers start using agents effectively. All kinds of software big and…

By all means use chatGPT, but your linked chat session hasn't understood the conditions. It answers mostly based on what actually happened, not taking into account the scenario I d…

>How is it irrelevant? Because it only looks at what has happened, not what could happen. And what could happen is the interesting thing. Before Chernobyl happened, the statistics …

>Even if deregulation increased nuclear deaths per watt by two orders of magnitude (which I strongly doubt!) Why doubt it? Chernobyl alone was very close to causing millions of dea…

> I think you're seriously misunderstanding the statistic I posted. Not at all, i am very familiar with this argument, but it’s flawed. It doesn’t matter at all how many people hav…

>you don't get debt in the present without assets The problem is that even worthless assets will do. (It's why we had a financial crisis in 2008).

>Nuclear power has orders of magnitude fewer deaths per kilowatt-hour By this logic the minuteman missile is harmless. It hasn’t killed anyone, right? Nuclear power has the potenti…

>There are estimates that pollution from European coal power plants cause more deaths EACH year in Europe, First and foremost - coal sucks. Secondly - the choice isn't between nucl…

>Interesting but people die (or are severely injured) in all kinds of industrial accidents all the time. Very few other industrial accidents cause effects that have to be dealt wit…

>The harms of radiation are massively overhyped. >Nobody from the Fukushima accident died from radiation sickness or radiation syndrome, and so far there's been no evidence of long…

>Do you have any source? There are many sources and it's of course complicated, but around 6 eurocents per kWh seems to be an accepted semi-official figure. "The full cost of exist…

>we cannot build them anywere in Europe due to plain stupidity. Economics I think. Nuclear power has gone bankrupt in France already (arguably more than once) and gotten bailed out…

>what if it’s quite hot but also cloudy for 5 days in a row? The main idea is to then import power from somewhere sunny and/or windy or mountainous, using money you saved when they…

Faster than chrome and 100% clearance of acid3 is certainly interesting, and a great achievement for a solo dev, good job! I’d love to see something entirely FOSS dethrone the big …

Seems like a good a place as any to ask this - anyone else feel no effect from either coffee or energy drinks? I can go from 4-5 cups of coffee per day at work (coffee machine) to …

>you won't get debt if you don't have assets that can be repossessed, so having debt means these AI companies have assets That's the ideal scenario, but you can also have immense d…

The most surprising to me was that a movie famously shot entirely on IMAX with real practical effects looks so bad. The shots are very often close-ups, with shaky action and extrem…

>My current strategy is to not read any of the code written by my agents. That’s the only way I can take advantage of their productivity. When you start getting good results from a…

>You are falling for the voting fallacy >See also: collective action problem. I think you misread me - I'm not saying "Don't try to stop global warming", I'm saying "Don't focus on…

>By now, everyone knows about climate change. But I assume most didn’t know the fact about the pine trees in this area. >Nowadays it’s much more about how we deal with climate chan…

>The main reason the forest is burning is global warming. I get where you're coming from but I don't think this is helpful. Everyone with any sense knows global warming will cause …

Debian is conservative so it makes sense that they have proposals for not using LLM's. They'll need another year or so but I am convinced it'll soon be obvious that any "no LLM" po…

>It could. It could make a simple note-taking app not take gigabytes of memory and take visible delay on each click. But the taste that tells you a note taking app should be fast d…

Good writeup, and certainly food for thought. I wonder if this key point actually holds though: >The skills to do so, however, are a function of someone who has experienced the fri…
