Comment wrong person for the job (Score 1) 51

Rewriting legacy code in itself makes sense if the idea is to extend and improve the project, add new features, increase functionality. For this purpose, however, you need a person with access to all of the documentation and understanding of why the code exists, not a person who can ask an LLM to rewrite the code simply by using the existing code base as the documentation base. Before rewriting the code what needs to be done is documentation needs to be created (if it doesn't exist) and business requirements need to be collected, basically normal business analysis and product management, once you have that you can hand it over to a developer.

Starting with a developer is probably a recipe for failure in this case.

Wait, you believe that government builds sewer pipes, gas systems, plumbing, roads? All of these things were and are built by private companies and should be built by private companies, not governments. Nothing should be done or built by governments, there shouldn't be any government employees, all government employees should be fired, all government regulation need to be abolished. People will rebuild everything, there shouldn't be even such things as government enforced zoning laws.

In the long term being a dental hygienist (in the USA) is going to suck just as much as being a nurse at a corporate hospital. The same PE firms that destroyed our large clinics and hospitals are buying up the dental practices and turning them into scam machines that sell people fillings for cavities that don’t exist. Give it ten years and dental hygienists will be working six days a week for less than what Buc-ee's pays.

imagine how flock personnel uses flock network every day...AI allows drawing conclusions from mass movement information that can provide information far beyond just someone's location. It is probably possible even to figure out market moves based on movement of groups of people.

This is not just about following any one person, this is about information movement, following a group of people who work on the same project for example to undersrand when they are going towards the same site / goal. This is beyond dangerous.

If Alphabet thinks that people in Maryland, Virginia, and DC are going to leave off their air conditioning in August for a paltry payment to keep data centers running then they're fucking insane. Not using much power when it's 105 degrees and humid outside is not something most people will do so Gemini can summarize other people's email.

Theyâ(TM)re synergizing paradigms. A goal of many tech companies in the 1996-2000 era. Elon might finally achieve the dreams of the companies that brought low the NASDAQ. Or the market will finally realize that heâ(TM)s full of shit and TeSpaceXSI is just as overvalued as Worldcom.

Comment It's hogwash -- they survived comets and worse (Score 0) 19

Corals have been around for several hundred million years. They survived the comet which killed off the dinosaurs. They survived ice ages and glaciations, the most recent being a 400-500 foot sea level rise just 10-15,000 years ago. They routinely bleach themselves while shifting populations of the critters which give them color.

We puny humans are no threat to corals.
