So you're saying, you don't mind having cancer?

The biggest shift, in my mind, is that there will no lower bar for morality. Companies goals do not need to be aligned with society to trade for labour. The only lever we have is t…

This is like saying cancer is perfectly normal.

That’s really cool. I think you nailed it, English isn’t the best way to encode my intentions in code. A pseudo language is likely much more efficient.

For me, LLMs tend to engage the 'language center' that drains me faster than the 'problem solving center' I usually reserve for writing code. We really need a different abstraction…

This is very apt

Seems like Localsend doesn't currently work reliably with Tailscale enabled. This is a bummer. Hope they also allow sending files between clients on the same tailnet, that'll be su…

Super cool, lock-in is very real. We are overflowing with Duplo and Lego sets because I just don't want to deal with another system. There are, of course, other models on Thingiver…

I think it’s not right to blame teachers, because you cannot control that right? Agree it’s far too hard to find aspirational teachers, but they are naturally in demand and will be…

It’s human nature really, and we see this in our jobs, instead of using LLMs to learn to do our jobs better, we replace work with automation. It’s going to be quite hard to motivat…

Was about the mention this, -CC has been working perfectly for me

Super interesting, thanks for sharing

Anyone has done mesh WiFi (ideally triband) using off the shelf parts and Linux? I have an Orbi AX system which works reliably, but now I want to upgrade the radio to WiFi 7 and th…

That distinction is obviously quite apparently from the context. I’m using atomic clock to be consistent with what these radio clocks are marketed as.

That’s a very good point but the transmission power is extremely weak and won’t propagate more than 1m.

Related - we have an atomic Seiko wall clock expecting to have the time automatically adjusted by the WWVB LF atomic clock broadcast. Turns out, the signal is very weak where we no…

Long computing embedded in confusing texts should be sufficient.

It might work for crude actions, but my take is that touch signal is nuanced and won't get transmitted via mechanical linkage well. Love to see it prototyped though.

Before, I was humbled, learned and mastered. Now I feel frustrated and numb. I’m not an AI skeptic, but more and more I feel the joy has been sucked out of doing anything that AI h…

Indeed :) Ah yes I agree! That was awful to everyone (and to analyze!).

During the pandemic, we had a natural experiment at my previous company. Our org had started an org wise auto ‘meeting starts 5 minute past’ while others had the traditional meetin…

People looking into this a little too much, looks to me like random walk. You should try reinitiating the trial (or have multiple running) and see if the ranking is robust.

Coincidentally we were on the Robotaxi during the black out (didn’t know about it, we were going to Japan town from the Mission). Noticed that it navigated through the non-working …

A plug for tidyverse adjacent data.table - really should be combined someday :)

A little meaningless with one-shot, should try recreating a few times per model and see what the variance looks like.
