I wonder if it can be diced up and used for amalgamation plastics where esthetics don't matter much.

I'm curious, what tools do you use and which have you tried and rejected?

And new PC's cost an arm & leg thanks to the AI bubble.

Yeah... but interesting (and even potentially useful) spam. They are really cool vehicles; I'd want one even if they weren't solar.

Of course, the company has been promising them for years...

The price thing is important. What I suspect is that when companies can no longer subsidize bot use via investor funds and per market-share fights, users will balk at prices and look for cheaper alternatives, which may result in better model compression and/or overseas commodification, meaning the US data-centers won't be competitive, and those investors will get screwed, possibly triggering a Wallstreet crash.

Claude, do it on purpose this time! Go ape-shit!

There's a difference between asking an overseas consultant "what buttons do I push to un-jam the purple gizmo?" and between "Enter these new users for me."

I know what I told you. I told you that, for a start, read the IPCC working group 1 report "The Physical Science Basis of Climate Change".

The way you can tell when people who claim to be skeptics aren't, is that when you tell them where to find the answer to their questions they don't want to hear it.

I have never tried to sell AGI. (And I most certainly don't think large language models are AGI, or are ever going to evolve into AGI or anything like it.)

Exactly. Moose don't care, and there are few humans.

Yes, SOME people in the US live west of their solar time. But the comment I was replying to said most US population centers are in places east of the point in their time zones.

Labor is also cheaper than AI.

Companies need to burn thousands of dollars in tokens to get agents to do even vaguely equivalent work. Sure, the agent works all night and doesn't need breaks, but it also costs money literally every second you use it, and the end result STILL needs to be checked to make sure nothing insane happened.

Humans--even if you pay them a fair wage--are remarkably efficient at turning food (and coffee) into code and systems. The so-called 10x or 100x programmers (guys like Carmack) really DO exist. And while they're a nightmare to work with, generally speaking, they'll code circles around any agent. If you want something that nobody likes working with that will also give you hard to maintain code, hire a 10x programmer. At least you'll get a working system at the end of the day, and he didn't use a swimming pool full of water an a small gas power plant worth of energy to get it done.

Interestingly, literally the only person in my friend group that still drives stick is a woman. It's a relatively modern Honda (like, new enough that it has a backup camera in it). She's also one of the smoothest drivers I've ever ridden with. Her shifts are impeccable.

Let's hope Voyager lasts until November. The duct-tape is falling off the chicken-wire.

Pluto is the largest of thousands of frozen, rocky bodies called trans-Neptunian objects

Rumor is DOGE scans spotted "trans" in the document and thus cancelled the program for being "woke".

Maybe your stack and shop style was bloated and poorly factored. These kinds of shops are where AI does best because bots have piles of repetitious bloat to learn from and ape.
