That's not how people mentally price things though, i.e. "streaming is so much cheaper than the movie theaters!", etc

TINA, There Is No Alternative

It would probably had been fine had you just not put the "hand written" part.

While I'm not glossing over real problems we have today (I'm also Gen-X), the 90s were not that great, you were just young and unencumbered. Healthcare was cheaper and more friendl…

This reads as parody, but sounds like you are serious. What are some specific examples you've seen (without doxxing yourself of course).

Which is cool, but also likely an outlier due to Christopher Nolan's usage of practical effects vs CGI. His clout probably helped with the funding of that tbh.

I think in both cases, the LLM use needs to be handled by someone experienced with the domain. We are seeing this over and over with product development, writing, images, etc. With…

I don't see how the alternatives ends any differently? We manufacture in China, they copy the products with lower margins then western companies can't compete on price.

I am fairly convinced this was all designed only in graphic tools, and looked nice in static mockups, like those fake desktops with overlapping small windows widely spaced, etc. Th…

They reduced the radius back to older, smaller size and now all apps use a single radius, vs the weird 3 different radii in Tahoe. Looks better.

OP was asking why the attention now though specifically. I'm not calling it quackery, etc.

Health fads come and go

Yes, because the folks waiting slack-jawed for the monkeys to finish will no longer have the skills or discernment to know what Shakespeare looks like.

...and goods produced overseas would need to be heavily tariffed. But that was roundly criticized so where does that leave us?

Same here, and - while not trying to troll - the people I know who loudly proclaim how they keep hitting their limits are the ones who also seem to be blindly trying things through…

I agree and feel same. Doubly so since after 100+ years it's now more expensive and difficult to build a custom home? Seems off.

Yeah right? I used to live in nicer/upper area and like everybody got help from their parents for house, if not outright given to them.

> They may not be a majority, but if kinder souls decide to leave for a more welcoming community Given the context, you mean Rust? Nothing against Rust folks but I wouldn't really …

It's agents all the way down~!

People who say this gloss over the horrific fire bombing of Tokyo, etc (so bad B-29 crews could smell the bodies burning from thousands of feet above...). Hiroshima and Nagasaki we…

Please tell me this was not interview for a SaaS CRUD app role

No no, see those are all softball questions, and the only way to prove they are not coasting fakers or liars is to quiz them like this. /s

> I'm baffled at how US performs poorly for their people given they have abundant energy. Norway and Iceland also have abundant energy and their people are seeing the benefits. It'…

The folks I know who attempt to 'treat' themselves with substances generally just get worse. That's not a judgement, just an observation.

One nice thing about the rise of ORMs back in the day was it broke the stranglehold our traditional DBAs had on the data tier. I respected them and their skills, but in a product o…
