I have used it for 2 months and disabled it. So there is your exception.

The code it suggests is always highly suspect and writing raw code never was the problem in the first place (for me). I was “discussing” with it for far longer than it was making me “productive”. I give it -5%.

I do however love occasionally using GPT directly for converting some weird list of values to JSON or coming up with plausible test data. Sometimes some text or ideas for emails (especially English, which is not my mother tongue). Sort of a secretary of sorts.
That is what makes them also optimal for LLMs as is. It would be more efficient to have something that is direct machine code, but LLMs are Large <Language> Models right?
I don't see it mentioned in the thread, so I'll link to ESPHome. It is an incredible platform when you just want to read some sensors or put some relays or switches onto the network, integrates with Home Assistant. One of the most enjoyable firmware installation procedures I've ever encountered.

Most of the use cases I've seen have them report to Home Assistant or something similar, but I think some people use them directly without a host.

You have to bear in mind that usury prohibitions quickly became entangled with power structures. Owing money to powerful people is a problem for noble or royal debtors. Owing money to people you can exile or murder as you see fit is convenient and provides multiple ways to resolve the issue.
Running a decent LLM on a laptop is super impressive though I expect I'd run a personal LLM on a server for 24/7 availability, backup, etc. It'll be interesting to see if people like us HNers end up running our own full LLMs on open source for privacy, security and control reasons or if an acceptable solution is worked out which allows keeping our personal data blobs separate but able to be temporarily securely accessed.

One hypothesis I have is that the future of programming is natural language and the “compiler” is a LLM. This would be no different from the days when C took over for asm.

Usury is not why Christian nations are wealthier. Usury crushed the roman empire, which is why the Christian church, which took over administration when it fell apart, banned it.

A lack of tribalism and a high-trust society, heavily influenced by the Church's ban on cousin marriage, is why the west was able to become so wealthy.
Personal favorite was refusal to turn on cameras while a different voice participated in each conversation, if at all. There was always a different reason why the camera couldn't be turned on too, while it clearly wasn't a problem during the interview. Tracked IP address access and it was hopping all over the world on a day to day basis.

Constantly acting confused after acing the interview. Never getting anything done and insisting on pairing with somebody else who just did the work for them.

Essentially the goal seemed to be to collect a paycheck for as long as possible until somebody noticed and you ended up fired. I heard variations of this from a few people and saw one first hand.

Yes, /originally/ 'Organic' meant from living matter. However, when it was discovered that urea could be synthesised in the lab, we realised that there was no real distinction between 'living' molecules and 'dead' ones ...

Nowadays, 'organic' refers to chemicals with a majority (?) carbon content. It gets a little tricky for things like diamond and graphene (both materials) or for compounds that have a lot of heteroatoms.

Oddly enough, another nucleotide base (adenine) is exactly 50:50 C:N and has been proved to be synthesised from just HCN. So is it 'half'organic' :)
They more or less are. Consider this day-old thread[1] from Futurology, a default subreddit with 18 million subscribers. The comments are all lambasting the safety-minded statment of Sam Altman and decrying corporate control of AI. This is what most people believe.

Edit: Drawing on tech-related subreddits might be selecting for pro-free-AI people. A Pew Research Survey[2] did find that the number of people more concerned than excited about AI is double that of people more excited than concerned. The biggest concerns there are about job loss and surveillance though, and those people might not care about corporate AI or free-for-all AI, and might even for free-for-all AI.

After test driving a Model Y, I have to admit the touch screen-only interface wasn't _as_ bad as I thought it was going to be.

That being said, mechanical controls are superior for tasks that need to be done while driving: I'm thinking wiper and A/C controls in particular, with mirror and seat adjustments being slightly less important. I fully expect Tesla to start adding a few more hardware controls as other manufacturers learn to market this as a value add over Tesla.
Does anyone have a prediction for how this translates into Microsoft's bottom line? I'd imagine it is mostly increased Azure sales with a few Visual Studio licenses.

Economics is a constraint. No amount of wishful thinking makes it go away.

Destination charging has been part of the EV vision since forever. It's perfectly reasonable for anyone who values safety or convenience to hold off until the infrastructure is mature enough to suit their needs. It's a bit silly to blame men for not building everything yesterday, though. It's doubly silly to frame this as a failure of imagination. Contractors and landlords don't take payment in imagination.

Likewise, lower price brackets have been the goal of the EV vision since forever (Tesla Master Plan, 2006). However, as with any technology, the users who are willing to tolerate more bugs and higher prices have to come first before the money/experience gleaned from them can be used to address the broader market. It's perfectly reasonable to hold off an EV purchase until EV manufacturers put out a competitive offering in your price bracket, but again, it's a bit silly to blame men for not building everything yesterday. These things take time.

That "even more code" is communication. It's documentation that you ought to be recording somewhere anyway, for the most part. The nice part about using TypeScript for that particular documentation is that then your tools can help you with both the reading and the writing.
I find it amusing how far away from capitalism the Fed is, it's literally the opposite of a free market.

I wouldn't call this "class war". It's more accurate to say "neofeudalism".

Real wages have been relatively stagnant for 40+ years while we've seen a massive concentration of wealth at the top. Trickle-down economics and deregulation have repeatedly shown themselves to be nothing more than tools for increasing income and wealth inequality.

Every aspect of your life is increasingly financialized. College, once free or cheap, now saddles you with lifelong debt. Mortgage debt and rent as a ratio to income have massively increased. Medical debt can wipe you out in the blink of an eye. All of this is by design. It's an inevitable consequence of hyper-capitalist neoliberalism.

All of this debt without a real increase in wages is designed to keep you a compliant worker. After all, with any kind of real freedom or financial independence, you're absolutely showing up for work tomorrow.

Additionally, inflation could be tackled way more effectively with a windfall profits tax without indiscriminately hitting all businesses as well as individual borrowers. Even if it did it would fill government coffers so the most in need could be helped.

You get the same sentiments as the Bank of England governor from Larry Summers [1]. All of this is built on the lie that wages are the real threat to inflation rather than boundles corporate greed and profiteering.

Maybe it’s a half empty / half full thing, but there is some portion of the populace that can’t acknowledge the promise of anything until it is perfect and comprehensive.

And, yes, there’s another portion that can’t acknowledge gaps or flaws of the promise is sufficiently huge. But it’s the former that grinds my gears.

> I don't see what's special or better about compiling everything into a single binary, apart from fetishizing the executable format.

Indeed. If you think of the docker image itself as an executable format like PE or ELF, this becomes clearer. Rather than targeting the OS API, which has completely the wrong set of security abstractions because it's built around "users", it defines a new API layer.

> "I can deploy by scping the file from my workstation to the server"

I kind of miss cgi-bin. If we're ever to get back to a place where random "power users" can knock up a quick server to meet some computing need they have, easy deployment has to be a big part of that. Can we make it as easy to deploy as to post on Instagram?

> According to this site, the US unemployment are was low at the beginning of 2008

The local minimum of unemploymwnt before the 2007-2009 Great Recession waa 4.40%, reached several times between October 2006 and May 2007, with oscillations up to 4.5-4.6% in between. By the beginning of 2008 it was up to 5.0%. Yes, in general terms these are all “low”, but they are also all significantly higher than unemployment has recently been (last month it ticked up to 3.6% from 3.4%, that 3.4% tying the low reached in 1968-1969 and not seen in between.)

Saying that the “high” effective Fed Funds Rate of 4.58% is “causing unemployment” today with unemployment at 3.6% is somehow more true, and therefore distinguishing the current situation as worse, than, say, the 5.21%-5.28% effective rate over May 2007 causing unemployment when that was at 4.4% requires very slippery standards.
Something can be both a consequence and a cause. That's how feedback loops work, and inflation is distinctly prone to feedback loops.

Insisting that something is a consequence and therefore not a cause smells like politics being placed over rigor.

It's interesting because the Copilot for PRs preview uses an app that does say "Owned and Operated by GitHub". Probably just an oversight, but I'm pretty sensitive about what access GitHub apps have, especially given the list of major attacks that have happened in recent years that were initiated by someone sneaking malicious payloads in somewhere along the development pipeline.

Curious why they'd use a totally different domain in the first place–how much access do you think you could get to private repos just by cloning that page onto githubfuture.com (available) and spearphishing interesting targets?
I built this tool to create tar archives on Amazon S3 without the need to download the data. It uses existing Amazon S3 APIs to ‘copy’ the data into a new Multipart object in the backend. There is no minimum size for the objects as long as the total archive is greater than 5MB, the maximum size for an object in the archive can be 5GB and the total archive can be up to 5TB. This tool helps solve the problem when users have too many objects by combining them into one and then moving it to glacier. Reducing the cost of glacier requests and minimum object size requirements.

Tars generated with this tool can also be extracted on Amazon S3 without having to download the file. This is possible because a table of contents csv file is prepended for the tool to know how to extract the data.
I feel that I have the right to be friendly to every person I see in almost every situation I'm in, including starting to chat with them. If they seem receptive I would feel that I have the right to escalate to flirting ... and then stop if it's not well received. With those provisos I see the time and place for sexual pursuit as most times and most places. But if the other person is not friendly and responsive, and you pursue the "chat up" or flirtation anyhow, that's not right regardless of time or place.

Spears can be more unwieldy in close/cluttered terrain (ie forests).

Assuming weapon and shield combat, clubs might be able to deliver more power through a shield (staggering or fatiguing the defender) than a spear thrust. The reach advantage of spears are also partially eroded once you consider a shield as well.

I think it's very telling that nearly all of the examples given of "modern" hunter gathers have them using both spear and clubs. I think the reality is that spears would have likely been preferred, but club/maces retaining some utility. In addition, the very fact that clubs had so many disadvantages would make it's use a bit of a status symbol too.
They block most extensions by default.
It wouldn't be unreasonable to expect just that. Overall, producing code quicker is probably not something we need. It's plenty quick to type code. What's slow is finding good designs. I think more often than not, we jump to the coding part too early and build things too soon. This creates problems that are hard to fix after the fact.

The easier it is to produce code, the more code will be produced. The more code is produced, the more complex and short-sighted the architecture will be as a result.

This is much older than AI. You can take a one-person task that takes two weeks to perform, assign it to a five person team, and they'll solve it by producing 25 times the code.

We create abstractions to cope with the noise of a large code base, but in doing so, we also create a noisier and more complex code base that needs more abstractions.
I checked a few of mine and none of them quite do that.

They're all very similar, American salaried at-will agreements.

They say that

(2) doesn't mean I can't have another job, but combined with (3) it does in practice.
I'm sure this question is coming from an earnest place, but does it not stand to reason that the sheer amount of information we have almost ubiquitous access to, combined with personalized content recommendation, means that we are more distracted than a medieval person who had no exposure to such things?
