this is the year of the linux desktop of course!
Would love to see some great hardware there as well. Something like a macbook pro line but with Linux on it.

In terms of human nature and tribal dynamics: scientists. Otherwise, the platform creators.
Of course, I forgot to explicitly ask "why". Why should scientists/platform creators be authority? Not that I necessarily disagree, but questions like these should have answers with a lot of rational arguments behind them.
I don't know really, I'm just trying to come up with the least bad solution. There's a lot of corruption even in the scientific community, and major disagreements even on supposedly "settled" science.
Maybe some kind of international organization with (elected) representatives who manage rule sets and audit AIs with the help of scientists. Maybe an open source authority of some kind.

#73By the end of 2023, blockchains will still not have 1 (one) real use case.
You mean tokens based on blockchains? They have one (and only one) real and worldwide successful use case - law avoidance. Any law, in any country, by any participant. The moral value of this system is an open question though.

#74General Trend: Balkanization of the Internet continues and significantly accelerates.
Specific Prediction: Google services are banned by a number of countries, and separately their search business is disrupted by AI generated content to the point that their algorithms stop working as intended.

#75- Microsoft will continue to grow. Their tech ecosystem is hyper-expansive, touching everything related to development and IT (.Net, TypeScript, Github, VSCode, PowerPlatform, Azure, etc.). Please don't directly come at me with moral qualms or commentary on the quality of their products - I'm just the messenger. - Low-code tooling will see a growth spurt, not driven by "citizen developers" but by increased developer…
> coding a form will be as difficult as it was back in fucking 2013. I'm sure there is at least one NPM package that solves this issue.
There are many. They are the reason coding a form is as difficult today as it was back in fucking 2013.

Can you give an example of an anti-social comment? Something specific would be helpful.
By human nature, anti-social would be anything that's meant to be destructive to, or an attack on "the tribe" or a member of the tribe. So, some examples: - "Orange people are useless." - "Fuck you, you piece of shit." - " voters are idiots." - "We should take away the rights of ." The more sophisticated the comment the more difficult it is to tell whether it's overall anti-social or not, but we can at least identify…

Not exactly. It's possible to identify anti-social comments. You just have to define what's considered anti-social, either from a human nature perspective or a cultural one. For example, if we go the human nature route, then any comment - no matter how inflammatory - is fair game as long as the goal of the comment is to "help the tribe" in some sense. That's kind of like political speech. So, you could faithfully arg…

"ChatGPT will not replace coders at least in 2023" ChatGPT is the smaller model more aimed at chat, the davincy model is already better ;)
To produce working software systems, you need, among other things: - Business analysis / product management skills - Software architecture skills - Ability to read the code output, and edit it as needed - Ability to run the code and deploy it - Ability to debug it - A combination of all of the above to prioritize and implement changes as business requirements evolve Does Davinci directly address any of this?
Project management, always forgotten.

> Everybody tends to think their business requirements are very unique How did that pan out for low-code tools? Or hell, the advent of high-level languages in the 60's and 70's? Did either of these paradigm shifts reduce the amount of coders needed? For these tools to really eat up into demand for programmers, it would need to increase productivity enough to: 1. Meet the ever-growing demand for software 2. Close the…
you mean the low code tools like wix that make billions? Look I see what you mean, but even you have to admit that helping generate the basic structure for something will save days of development and the fact that it can probably learn a new framework of tool xyz quicker than us will give a big boost.
I don't think WIX is a low code tool, it's a template editor, PowerPoint on the web. But, what's a low code tool?
