Why? By implication, because they're over 35 and don't want to learn new stuff anymore.

It seems you are both missing the point of article, and jumping on a stereotype.

Said point being: while the author clearly does like learning new stuff, and rolling up his sleeves to deal with all the fiddly bits -- AI is categorically different. In that the complexity is simply off the page compared to most (choosing my words carefully) technologies one is used to geeking out on. And that even experts in the field admit they don't really understand it.

(That, and the sheer resources required to do something interesting, the perpetual lock-in with the sociopathic entities that provide said resources, etc).
Written before they even knew an entire new continent where eventually people would invent airplanes and personal computers.
It's very hard because I don't see how we would ever actually trigger any sort of revolution anymore.

I personally live way too comfortably to justify to myself the possibility of being arrested, hurt or even killed for anything I believe in. I hate myself for that, but the logical part of my brain simply won't let me do it. Even when I was making much less, I still had this same mentality.

For better or worse, the line that must be crossed for millions to actually get together and do something about it is much, much lower in this day and age.

If there's one thing that is clear to me, is that when many of the rights we have today, that were fought and conquered with blood, people had much worse conditions of living. People were already in terrible situations, so taking personal risk in order to fight for something better was not so far fetched.

Another aspect is that we now live much more individualized lives. We no longer have the communities we had before, nor the similar shared communities. Only individuals that actively seek like-minded people and causes to fight for, end up together. The vast majority lives in their own bubble.

P.S: dang, if you read this, can you tell me if I can even comment on anything with any "ideological" overlap anymore. I don't wanna break any site rules but it's really hard for me to know where you draw the line for this stuff. I just enjoy discussing these matters and I'm not trying to create flame wars or anything like that.
Which is why in the real world most resturants go out of business.

Money being tight doesn't mean you no longer have to provide good service to attract customers. Running a business is hard for a reason. If it was easy, everyone would do it.
There is some reason to disbelieve the official numbers. They started dropping rapidly under Putin, while the number of unidentified bodies processed by the health system climbed more or less identically: https://www.noahpinion.blog/p/russia-is-not-actually-a-very-...

Pics like that really are a “best foot forward” approach. Mediocre photo, casual dress, nothing remarkable about setting? Not going to get a lot of attention. Wearing a wetsuit on the beach with a surfboard or SCUBA gear will also get a lot more attention.

That's already widely accepted.

Also accepted is that at some point it becomes a bad thing. Boiling the oceans is a hyperbolic example, there's clearly an ideal temperature range.

Not accepted is what that threshold is and where we're headed, because current trends don't look like any warming or cooling cycles in human history.
This has nothing to do with developers. Most developers (good ones, anyway) are aware of these kinds of issues, and would like to fix them -- they're just not given the time. Leadership prioritizes other things.

I just wrote a simple CPU emulator last week for the computer architecture class I'm teaching, and used PySimpleGUI for the interface. When students tried to install it on the lab computers yesterday and asked me about that "30 day free trial" business, that really took me by surprise.

Guess I'm going to bite the bullet and rewrite the GUI in tkinter, which is what I wanted to avoid in the first place.

Pretty sure volcano eruptions were responsible for at least 1 mass extinction, so I'm not sure what your point is. I also don't think your link really proves your point, and even that article admits that sulfur will likely harm the ozone (automatic nonstarter) - which is also not really reversible, per your claim.

Nah, we're cells in a distributed super-organism, or possibly a holobiont.
It would depend on the implementation. Cut and cover could be done in blocks rather than shutting down long corridors at a time, combined with legislation setting clear limits on affected compensation and their standing to sue over small delays. That could easily pencil out to much cheaper than deep bored tunnels and stations.
Eventually, the owners are gonna want to retire or they will die. Maybe, the business can be inherited or passed on to family, or an employee. But if your family doesn't want to take it over and you don't have any employees who are able to run it (if it is profitable enough you could consider hiring a manager), you either sell or shut down. Generally, most find it preferential to sell. And most who have spent their life working on something would prefer to sell and use the income to fund their retirement- and see the business continue.

There are lots of different exit strategies, but oftentimes a sell of some sort is the only one that really makes sense.

At grade is awful, stopping everywhere. That includes in Amsterdam.

Benefits of tunnels would be

* No need to stop

* Protection from elements (I for one would be far happier riding in summer if it wasn't sweltering, or in winter if it wasn't bitterly cold and rain)

* Mostly flat tunnels (No hills to climb up and over)

* Certainty that the route won't be removed for some reason

Of course would never find the money.
> I also can’t churn out my inspired works at a rate that displaces potentially everyone who has ever influenced me.

I'm with you, man. I'm still trying to find a lawyer who will sue Kubota and John Deere for moving dirt at a rate far superior to me and a shovel, but nobody will take my case.

> How on earth is using a machine to spit out a poem a creative pursuit?

100%, man. Nobody is mentioning the magical fairy dust in human brains that makes us superior to these models. When I really like fantasy novels, and then train my neurons on thousands of hours of reading Tolkien, Terry Brooks, Brandon Sanderson, etc, and then I get the idea to write my own fantasy series, my creative process doesn't draw on my own model's training data at all. It's 100% "creative", and I would produce exactly the same content if I were illiterate. But these goddamned machines, man. They don't have our special human fairy dust.

When we discovered the universal law of gravitation, and realized that the laws of physics are omnipresent in our universe, we put a giant asterisk to note that the laws of physics are different inside humans. The epidermis is a sort of barrier to physics, and within its confines, magic happens, that these pro-AI people conveniently "forget".

To paraphrase the eminent Human Unique Creative Person Roger Penrose: "There's magical quantum shit goin down in the microtubules. It's gotta be the microtubules. I think, right? I can't prove it, but as a scientist, we don't need proof. Making sure we think we are superior is more important."

AI is not only a threat to generation of art, but also to consumption. For decades now, hollywood movies have been tested to "focus groups" to decide which way the stories should go to maximize profits. with AI, you can train it to maximize "engagement" to "discover trends". This could end up affecting even traditional artists. It could Hollywood-ize other forms of art.
And the reasonable answer is to judge proposed changes in terms of their impact to stability, and make relevant risk/reward tradeoffs (and ideally including risk mitigation within the scope of the change).

The current milieu seems dramatically skewed toward churning out low-value changes without sufficiently considering the impact to stability, causing frequent breakage, and resulting in net negative value.
I wonder if they really thought this would set a precedent that benefited them.

> Только синие они и не крапа золота.
I'm not so sure about either of these, but especially #2.

Engineers need to control the behavior of their software very precisely. The fantasy of firing all your engineers and just letting product folks write something extremely high-level like "Write me an app for reviewing movies" and letting a language model fill in all the details seems like a nonstarter.

First, the details it imagines likely won't be what you actually want. So they'll have to start getting more and more precise. So precise in fact that it's back to "programming" instead of something like actual natural language.

Second, this seems unlikely to provide stability over time. Trying to evolve your FE, BE and storage to remain compatible between one prompt and the next or one language model and the next likely will involve specifying those details fully as well.

Natural language just isn't precise enough for this. There is way too much inference involved. This situation is fundamentally different from abstractions that allow one group of engineers to encapsulate implementation details within a system.
> Isaac warned that I was smaller than their other clients.

A loud alarm should have gone off at this point. There is a mismatch between their processes and expectations and your ones. It won't end well. Same if they were much smaller than you.

Then there is a 600+ comments thread from 2022 for all the issues in this redesign. The link is in another comment.

If the owner of the site reads this, what was the outcome after two years? Did the redesign turn out to be worth the cost?
No, because no reasonable person would think that they had the authority to authorize that. Remember, the legal system is not computer code - judges look at things like intent and plausibility.

Right - but you still gotta talk to the musicians if this side feature is going to have any traction.

If people aren't responding to emails that are supposedly important, then the incentive structures aren't aligned so that they do respond. I wouldn't say that not having a meeting is an incentive to reply, the incentive is having your opinion heard and considered in future discussions.

Also if there are the occasional emails that actually do need an answer/decision/action Right This Second or whatever and people aren't, then the expectation that people reply isn't being sufficiently set and carried out. Add that to the cornucopia of BS that is management mismanagement.
No, because that's not "reasonable". My dad jokes that he's made a career off of determining what is "reasonable" and what isn't, and he's a contract attorney.

If you were standing at the customer service desk, and instead they said: "sorry about the delay, your next two flights are free", then all of a sudden this is "reasonable".

I wish the maps functionality was better. When I want to find directions to a place, or see how long it will take me, the easiest thing to do it "cmd+L cmd+V" or "highlight --> right-click --> search for ____", but with kagi set as my default search, the UX is terrible. The top results are often for zillow or similar, instead of a map, and when it shows a map, it's many clicks and slow loads to get directions.

"we would already be seeing Poland and other neighboring territories taken over by Russia with great ease"

The same ease as now in Avdiivka? It took five months of constant bloodshed for Russians to gain the upper hand.

"Putin wants to reclaim only a small fraction of Ukraine where the people in those regions have openly stated wanting that very thing to happen, due to Ukraine's corruption and oppressive policies."

I don't even know what to reply to this. Hitler also ran fake referenda. BTW That small fraction of Ukraine is something like a sixth of its total territory, plus multiple important cities and most of the coastline.

I never really understood why people believed Hitler when he declared in 1938 that Czechoslovak Sudetenland was his last territorial demand, but hey, here we go again.

"Kiev is practically spotless when you compare it to Gaza"

And? There was never ground fighting in Kiev proper, given that the Russians didn't manage to enter the city, and both Ukraine and Russia have enough of AA to keep each other's air assets at bay.

Look at Bakhmut or Avdiivka, places of actual fighting and former homes of tens of thousands of people. They actually do look a lot worse than Gaza. How did you miss those cities when looking for context and perspective?

Thanks Kagi team. It's really cool to see a search engine change in positive ways!
I've been running a design agency for over a decade and have worked on many redesigns (not involved btw with OP). One common mistake I notice among designers, and something I always emphasize to my team, is the importance of designing for the business, not just for aesthetics. Design is not merely a visual exercise; it's a catalyst for business growth. I can cite numerous instances where simple or even major redesigns significantly contributed to a business's success. For example, a redesign of the search animation for a major e-commerce platform once reduced customer complaint calls by 20%. Another time, a comprehensive overhaul of a checkout page resulted in a twofold decrease in cart abandonment. Or the major redesign that led enterprise customers to trust a SaaS product based solely on its appearance and got the big co to adopt their product.

Design is an invaluable tool. The amount spent on it is inconsequential if it's not leveraged correctly. Spending $100,000 and making two minor changes that triple your revenue is an absolute bargain.
My experience is that if you are on that side of things no one is gonna be honest with you. To them you are just someone to fool.

He should not have been murdered in a Russian prison. But if he would have somehow become the ruler of Russia, he would have had to been ruthless or be toppled by someone else. The system in Russia can't be changed by one man on the top. That's like imagining a mafia could suddenly be transformed into a an open and democratic organization.
I'm stunned more people don't realize just how big of a risk they are. Both from a dilution of value of the marketplace, but also from a "no human made this, so there's no copyright".

Big gamble to build on those.
