I see you have no reading ability. I was referring to "new computer", not the one form the story, very obviously.

I guess the rest of your "analysis" is on "utter crap" level as well. And no, the war in Ukraine is not destroying our economy either. For that you have to get a moron in power that imposes massive tariffs and makes everybody wanting to stop to trade with you at all and removes all stability from trade. Oh, and starts a disastrous war with Iran to misdirect away from him having raped underage girls.

Comment Re:P as in Personal as in Affordable ? (Score 0) 76

The P in PC means Personal which means affordable for the average man.

Not exactly. Personal originally meant "not shared with another person". Originally, it meant a computer only you have access to, only you install and run software, and only you store and retrieve data.

Well, first you have to be stupid. That covers about 80% of the human race in some form. Second, you must be technologically incompetent. And then, you must be in awe of Microsofts dominance, while having no understanding of the abysmal (and getting worse) product quality they deliver. I would say that for the time being, this may be a product they can actually sell.

Except for trivial cases I don't think that is really true yet.

I agree in general, but not with this strong phrasing. I've let AI build a good amount of non-trivial code. But my consistent experience is that it works best when guided by an experienced coder who can correct it, and when implementing well-known algorithms rather than coming up with novel solutions.

Example: I let it write up a quadtree implementation in a language for which there was no ready solution online. It took 2-3 correcting prompts to get a good result. I could've done it myself but it would've likely taken a few hours to get it all right instead of the half or so hour it took with AI. The important part for me was that there's nothing unknown in how to implement a quadtree. All the AI needs to do is take the 100s of existing implementations and translate them into a different language.
