>The difference this time is pace: you could delay adopting “the cloud” for a couple of years and survive. With AI you might get a few months. It is weird that the author seems to …

The described problem sounds so utterly not human though. If you give a human a programming task and tell them to use a specific programming language, how many times are they going…

>[about the Grand Canyon] It looks like this. There, you’re done. You don’t need to go. I don’t understand how this person can have gone to all these places and be so cynical about…

>LLM when it came out, was perfect as an interface between a system and a normal human. Statements like this make me feel like I live in a different universe with a different imple…

“Thinnest” should be measured by the thickest slice for a given dimension. I have an iPhone 11 which also has a camera bump and the experience of typing while the phone is on a fla…
