    I disagree. I think it's about pivot time, not having a warmed up stable of skilled workers just in case. Nature never optimizes for that and it shouldn't. We should lazy-load that…

    Cash back? Attention is finite and I don't want a payment processor forcing me to pay a fee so I can turn around and try and earn it back. How about lower the fee and let me keep t…

    Emotions? Motivations? Self awareness? To really reach another level of intelligence I think these are required. If I met a humanoid with zero of these, and I mean zero... I would …

    Wait, what? Why is AI unlimited? There are many constraints like the speed of information, calculation, available memory, etc. Where does it cross into the physical world? And at w…

    I've been using relay.firefox.com for masking my email. I even pay the $1 per month because it's so convenient.

    What about the law of conservation of matter? When have you seen anything cease to exist, and not merely transform? Isn't the question about the universe existing really asking whe…

    Should... should. So. Should they move the canneries, ports, flat land, abundant sun and all the skilled labor and their families? Mechanics, installers, fabricators, etc. It's not…

    I'm not sure the ratio is that different. In 1994 how many different browsers, connection speeds, phishing scams, competitors shipping fast forcing you to do similar to stay compet…

    Yes. And it's on your home IP address. I see things based on what others in my household have done with Tok Tok

    Aren't the gas and electrical lines akin to some core capabilities of the system? I have yet to find a (web project) that doesn't need auth, eventing, logging, etc. I don't expect …

    Here me out: this sounds like an excuse. If you really want to solve it you could. I did. I use a wok to cook and it's faster than going to McDonalds. It's slower than a frozen mea…

    I think you're leaving out the part where one group feels like they can intervene in someone else's life and decisions about health based on a difference of opinion. The default sh…

    It sounds like you're a holistic or big picture type. I struggle with this too. I don't have all the answers but my advice would be to try and focus on a smaller thing and get a wi…

    On your last point I'd add that using GitHub copilot has (at times) felt like pair programming to me. It has made suggestions for something I didn't know or think of yet, but I not…

    Many of the things listed in the article burn me out, though. Any additional expectations about team building or water cooler talk only extend the amount of time I'm ignoring my fa…

    I'm sure this is partially true but I don't remember it being the norm. I remember it being harder to find things (Netscape days, Altavista, etc), content embedded in Flash or jsp …

    Not agreeing or disagreeing but this is a poor argument. First, it's not like wars of the size and intensity of WW2 happen often, so a lack of similar action since then isn't surpr…
