He's referring to specific uses of technology as in AI, not the summary headline The Grauniad used. That my nature excludes 99.99% of everything that goes boom at the moment.

Well within the constraints they set out which exclude a hell of a lot of European companies. (I am in Europe for reference, this is not an external perspective)

Opt in you mean, like the cookie banners? Oh no that'll never happen because VW are a European company and the money is in fining US tech companies!

Hinton is a complete banana. If anything, we'll do it without technology.

Worth noting this is the old web site of Hans Summers of QRP Labs fame... https://qrp-labs.com

No you couldn't. Totally different domain.

You sound like the guy I just had to fire after blowing his toes off several times. If you think you are obsolete or faster than anyone else with these tools then you only naive en…

You're still doing it the hard way. I just use Handbrake. Pick a hammer, not a shitty hammer factory to assemble bits of hammer.

Nailed it.

Monkey as a synonym of a completely fungible creature.

That too.

JSON has never been better than XML. People are just terrible at XML and don't want to learn.

Yep. Everything is exactly two models away. It's the new fusion. Yet after $X billion expenditure I still have to argue with the finest turd squeezed out of the industry over simpl…

Oh yeah been there too. Imagine the day you could beam them out!

Because JSON is fucking horrible for humans? If there's anything I want to read it's searchable paper.

Having spent an uncomfortable and expensive night in a foreign hospital after creating my own personal fatberg, this sounds like a technological innovation that would bring tears o…

That is absolutely hilarious and amazing. I love the effort people put into things like this.

I keep hearing this but the current evidence, asymptotic progress and financials say otherwise.

Mostly because people are isolated from the consequences of their shitty architectures through the joys of being employable somewhere else.

Nailed it.

Oh shit I just read that and am utterly horrified because I've been through that and am going through it. I have instantly decided to optimise myself to retire as quickly as possib…

It's much worse than that. It's giving the village idiot something which turns their insane ramblings into something that is incredibly verbose and sounds credible but inherits bot…

Got it thanks. That link crashed Mouser the first time so I assumed it was a dead one :)

I know a guy who does this. He finds a problem, then tells ChatGPT about it. Then ChatGPT elaborates it into dross. He says look at the magical output, without reading it or bother…

Doesn't work for all of us. I can peacefully fall asleep from the noise of a CFM on an Airbus. On a train, rickety being chucked around all the time and always too hot, nope. I can…
