Comment So we're all past accepting it doesn't work? (Score 1) 90

The cope has been nauseating.

It works. Everyone onboard now?

Now it's about how it scales and how we optimize use and lower release cycle time.

Everyone agonizing over token costs doesn't understand the exponential cost decay.. and how are you going to compete with hyperscalers who have essentially unlimited, near-free tokens.

Buckle up.

Comment Re:Did you mean counterclockwise? (Score 1) 156

OED says anticlockwise is used 0.09 times per million words. Counterclockwise is used 1 time per million words.

Yes, that will happen when most of the people in the world who speak English aren't actually English. Your single example of the researchers writing in UK English withstanding.

Any time I've read or heard the phrase spoken by Brits they prefer anticlockwise to counterclockwise. One example that quickly springs to mind is the British Global Cycling Network. I thought this was common knowledge.

And therein lies the problem. People who just want a simple, sane political system feel (correctly) that it's not something they should have to put in a lot of effort to get or maintain. But the horrifying extremists have all the energy in the world to get their nonsense through, and won't expend any energy at all to just step back a bit and consider that their policies might be hurting themselves as well.

But yes, at the bare minimum people should put in the effort to vote and not nope out after buying into the nonsense that politicians are all the same.

It's the difference between a communist state where the government is forcing their people to head in the correct direction on this and a democracy where the people are choosing the wrong one time and time again.

I'm all for democracy. That's why I'm hoping its citizens will improve enough for it to survive.

I've used Sonnet 4.5 most days for almost everything recently. However, last week it got stuck on a problem. So I took a screenshot of the issue (was a math error that led to a visualization issue) and gave it to Opus 4.6 with 2 sentences of prompt. 28 minutes later O4.6 reasoned itself to the correct root cause and fix. Game changing moment for me. It figured out the issue from a screenshot. But i also gave O4.6 another problem and it chewed on it in circles for half an hour and hit me for 16x usage requests even though i only asked it one question. I put the same question back to S4.5 and it figured it out quickly.

Go read some history, you'll find these same articles.

I just completely automated most of our IC2 and IC3 network engineering processes with GPT agents.

Not redid; the AI executes the same workflows and tools better, cheaper, and faster. Compressing months of work to two weeks.

It's real.

Political leaning and desire for children is heritable.

The left will elect themselves out of the population pool in time. It will accelerate as more people choose more traditional values and family structures.

The state needs immigration to counter this effect, but they didn't move fast enough in America.

Races are not competing teams you neo-Nazi moron. Wake up.

There was a whole world war regarding this. The idiots fighting for the broken ideals you are espousing were eventually granted the death and suffering they deserved. There were lessons that most of us have taken to heart and then moved on. Why useless fools such as yourself still exist given all we know is beyond me.

The problem black people have with the statement, "It's OK to be white" is not because they don't think it's OK to be white. It's the implication that there's some big movement saying it's not OK to be white, with the demographic holding the majority of power playing the victim. It's the same mentality as neo-Nazis claiming that white people are at risk of being "replaced".

I don't see any issue with me being white myself. But I was never deluded enough to think that made me part of some team that had to be defended, or else.

One of the things you should have said is that you never believed in this country in the first place. People have the right to be Communists. Regardless of your negative views of them, regardless of whether those views are correct. An important part of democracy is allowing people to believe and act as they feel fit under the law - even in things you don't like.
