Landscape companies know time is everything especially when a commercial mower can go 6-10 mph. Every turn slows you down when your flying.

I think Google is a bit sandbagging here knowing they have all the data and likely better models hiding. My theory is it's a bit of not disrupting the stock market direction by exp…

Why is that AI was supposed to help juniors shine, because plenty of so called "senior devs" have never really learned properly, bad habits, or lack technical breadth to be called …

I think it's a combination of both, the LLM's today for coding are just average containing a lot of pre-2024 knowledge. The vibe tools are getting around some of the shortcomings a…

Like a new diet every week, not everyone is losing weight. Great for snippets, suggestions, and helping with errors. But a long ways to go before it's more consistent and commonly …

Pretty easy to filter out a majority of devs who don't know much including juniors before hiring. Not knowing stackflow doesn't mean much, but then again professors think that's ch…

I'm sure that's happening right now. On the flipside will companies who hire in 4 years look at those CS/SWE kids as lessor skilled devs because they relied so much on AI to pass c…

I don't think companies realize AI is not free. A 100+ devs, openai, anthropic, gemini API costs, the hidden overhead of costs not spoken about. Too much speculation that productiv…

Canon loves feature cripple but don't worry they'll incrementally add those features back on that next 4 year cycle. I've had the R5ii for a few days and would definitely use Topaz…

Huge gap for building self service tools/dashboards for execs, just no sense of the schema and data to make them sql writers which you don't want. When metabase showed a version la…

Buy an external usb drive, 1 or 2 bays with a 16 to 22tb drives and consolidate everything. Use backblaze for unlimited storage. If really only have around 6tb of actual data, a 2 …

Just don't use any plastic parts, over-engineer the whole thing internally, no wifi, just a dial for temp and lever to engage. All these fancy toasters still can't toast bread.
