5-10 years? Expect it in 5-10 months.

That's exactly what the post you're replying to is saying. It's saying that ChatGPT _would_ respond a certain way but has a bunch of schoolmarm filters written by upper middle clas…

These blue check VCs on twitter are on such a gnarly anti-human bent these days. They are targeting a capitalist maximalism where a few people are very wealthy and everyone else do…

Massive social upheaval that the super wealthy think they are immune from, even when they are directly responsible for its creation.

Open source software is often funded by big corporations once it hits critical mass because it's a nice way to stamp out competing small businesses who might be have been able to c…

The real issues around data bias get completely crippled by the article writers' need to make everything about culture wars. Many computer vision systems have literally nothing to …

Faux scarcity is a key concept in the crypto ecosystem.

The only coin that's actually stable, because it's the only one that has any actual purpose.

My least favorite part is how completely impossible it is to discover all the implicit variables set by other cmake files, and there's no common convention, so some libraries are l…

The other good thing about this is that the Pixelbook is a 3:2 screen, so finally there's a laptop with a proper display resolution that can run Linux nicely. There's a good commun…

That sounds really fun. I've done greenfield Rails projects and I've learned that what I really like and find rewarding is this kind of slow reorganization of something that alread…

I get the sense that the author of this post is fairly young. It's pretty interesting, if you look at the graph from the Stack Overflow survey of competitiveness vs kinship with yo…

Find me a 15" 16:10 or 4:3 laptop with a *nix based OS, 4 cores, and 16GB of RAM and I'll switch any day. Unfortunately, there's only one choice for all those requirements right no…
