They don’t really give a shit about carbon emissions or employee wellbeing.

I read an article about this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_in_a_vat Thinking about this myself lead to the conclusion that the amount of information that would need to be generated and maintained just for my brain would be prohibitively enormous. All the people in the world and their states and history. The combined knowledge of mankind. I started thinking about quantum mechanics though and that kind of threw off my conclusions because the state of particles is not known until you measure them, which seems like an optimization of sorts. I don’t know, but it is interesting to think about.

Well, I will take sensible policies over regressive.

What are you referring to? I don’t really understand the whole hexbear thing. What is their beef and why do conservatives get a pass? They are mostly just an annoyance though, I just ignore.

I have had the same experience with text and images. Not sure what is up with that. As for code, it is really helpful for generating boilerplate stuff that you probably don’t want to do yourself. Rapid prototyping and proof of concept creation is another. I suggest trying it out to see what it can do to make your life easier, but you will have instances where it just won’t do what you ask. I kind of enjoy the back and forth to get things working and I feel it saves effort.

Just explain what you are trying to do like you would with a person and it will give you the code. It probably won’t quite be what you want so refine your request or post a photo of the errors you might get and try again.

If you are working with a language that you aren’t familiar with it is very helpful. Just remember that it has been trained on all the code on the internet, so it knows a lot.

It is a great tool, with limitations, of course. As the developer you have to know how to apply it to get the most from it. You can see from the downvotes that there’s a lot of negativity towards llms, but I have positive experiences with using ChatGPT.

Eh, if it ain’t right, I just bounce it back to ChatGPT to fix. With enough guidance and oversight it will get there.

I hope you are right about the left not accepting a Trump win. I don’t even know why he’s a legitimate candidate with the whole insurrection thing. Openly gaming the election? Felonies? I don’t think the US can survive four more years of this guy, so I think the time for passively accepting his shenanigans is over.

Thanks, I work on now somewhat obscure stuff. Hopefully I can hang on for a while longer. AI is amazing but I don’t think it is ready to do my job yet.

100 chickens, how do I choke them all?

Can you be more specific about the software reports. I am in software so I would like to know if my field is dying.

Only if the hippo has a human bike. Hippo bike is different story.

Hearing aids.

You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. I would say that doing this is more for you so that you can feel like you’ve done what you can and wash your hands of it

Maybe have them make a list of shows that are must haves. You map out how they can watch those shows and what it will cost. That should prove both aspects of your argument.

I have hundreds of favorites that I rarely listen to anymore. So, not much money.

Yes, a perfect thing of beauty.

He’s just another racist boomer these days who’s mind has been melted by Trump derangement syndrome and lead.

I’m a cheapskate, I usually end up with ryobi.

Edit: check out Project Farm on YouTube. This guy does independent and fairly comprehensive reviews of various household products.

So, 500 years from now people will still be doing this?
