    To say that students don’t benefit from getting good grades using LLMs is incredibly naive. Learning is only about the third or fourth most important “benefit” for students, after …

    The only pseudo-intellectualism I see is from you. You’re missing the whole point.

    It’s just a matter of perspective. Procedures and memory are the same, and they’re also different, depending on how you want to look at it.

    Prayer does work, through the mechanism of putting your thoughts in perspective and context and sharing them outside yourself. Whether or not people understand the reason “why” it …

    I’ve noticed this too. Any idea why modern language books get this so wrong?

    It’s always funny to me to see people in tech, who have largely been employed to put other people out of work for the last 50 years, change their stance on tech as soon as it start…

    Code has always been a bottleneck for any product which involves software.

    What bizarre advice. It completely misses the point.

    You’re still living in the past. It will be an LLM working on it in the future.

    Right now, you’d use skyscanner directly for finding flights. Maybe Expedia for hotels. What if instead of needing to know about what app to use for every different type of thing y…

    Anyone who’s trying to make money through stuff like this (versus just experimenting) is using one of the many paid captcha-solving APIs, which cost a cent or two per solved captch…

    It’s a useless skill to keep sharp. It will never again be important. It’s like the electrical engineering professors who insisted we needed to understand how the circuitry worked …
