    Well then ask the LLM to go find and pull its information from primary sources. Don’t ever rely on its own training data.

    I sometimes feel it isn’t malicious but that they don’t know the number either.

    Not only that but different countries have code regimes that make more elevators especially expensive. See how building codes in the US basically ensure there are only two real man…

    You should observe if it is the same elevator all the time and the building people just don’t understand it. Our building elevators (bank of 2) always seems to try to keep one in t…

    The problem is that in the morning the “last stop” for the elevator might be the lobby not a mid floor. And so it would have to move itself back up without any passengers or calls …

    If you like elevator hacking don’t forget the seminal DEF CON talk by Deviant Ollam and Howard Payne: https://youtu.be/oHf1vD5_b5I I watch it like once a year because it always tic…

    “ but back then the news was just one or two 30minute blocks on TV and the newspaper.” There was all kinds of quasi-serious news-adjacent crap like 60 minutes, 48 hours, etc. The b…

    That whole timespan… the absolute nonsense the “trusted media” and their “experts” were pushing with nary a single trace of critical thinking absolutely boggles the mind. How about…

    "we can start getting these answers back faster, they end up being more useful." Dude, 10x token speed is going to be absolutely nuts. Half the "parallel subagent workflow" busines…

    To be fair, versioning has always been vibes based.

    Bumping the speed of these things would be more than meaningful. It would be a massive game changer. I assert like 80% of this “multi agent parallel workflow” business is simply a …

    I mean it just depends on the price of the chip. You might just replace the chip like you would any other component. Like a video game cartridge or something.

    It’s really wild watching LLMs construct those calls. They batch so many different checks and stuff into a single tool call, delimit them with markers, etc. The crazy thing to me i…

    100-200 like scripts are tiny especially for something easy to scope like a vendor api. Give opus a much, much larger challenge and see what you get back. You really don’t need to …

    Paste the job description into your friendly LLM and let it attempt to find the company for you and then contact the company itself. Those recruiter spams generally just copy and p…

    I mean $40 if you are lucky or goodwill. You could get more selling it “proper” but the transaction cost of it is super not worth it (for me). When I want something out of my house…
