    Because they are engineers? The difference between an engineer and a hobbyist is an engineer has to optimize the cost. As they say: any idiot can build a bridge that stands, only a…

    On top of my mind: responses have feedback buttons below them. You can simply deploy different versions and compare the neutral + positive / negative feeback ratio. It would be sin…

    Or maybe they are just AB testing and aggressively optimizing the response generation? LLMs are known to be compute/energy hungry to execute. It is a developing technology, if not …

    I think law and sofware are very similar in this. Basically read the parent post, except replace words of tech with law and court process ones. As you increase the number and the p…

    Consider all 4 dimensions of the battlefield. You cannot be aware of every direction, at all times. Especially in cities, which has 3 spatial dimensions of potential hostile infant…

    Things break all the time, so errors will happen. If you look at life as good & evil, you won't solve any conflicts. You should rather focus on "incentives". Correcting bugs and er…

    First, let me lay my credentials bare, so you would see where I'm coming from. As I like so say: "I am merely 30 cloudy days away from white, and just one good tan away from 'perso…

    Yeah, but it is somewhat like saying as your revenue scales, so does your expenses. And it indeed does. But it is a net win at the end of the day, for 10% of a billion is much bett…

    Ditto! As we approach the launch date, the feeling in my stomach when I read about Webb is getting worse. JWST is going to revolutionize our understanding of cosmos, but only becau…

    Exactly. It is so sad to see many great engineers working on decade-long projects with 300-something single failure points. That time and money should instead be spent on reducing …

    Sorry, it has nothing to do with etymology. It is a remote and obscure use case which may or may not be offensive to some group or other. I do not care. I'm here to read about some…
