Can something be broken that never actually worked?

Except there weren't really any mass harassment, rape and death threat, and firing campaigns being coordinated against ordinary people for not sufficiently mourning someone. Most of the "cancel culture" stuff was overblown nonsense, the few real events were against massive public figures credibly accused of heinous things like Weinstein.

Pretending this is in any way equivalent betrays either an intense naivete or a supporter of this pre-pogrom behavior.

They didn't claim that there were any, just that AGI isn’t a necessary requirement for an application to be world-changing.

I've used Promptfoo for client projects and really enjoyed it once I got my head around it.

This makes me want to build agents in Elixir now

Agents don't typically, and any LLM they're calling is likely hosted remotely.

That doesn't negate what OP was saying at all, the better support in Python isn't for "running ML/AI code" but in things like agent frameworks, observability tools, SDKs, etc. None of which directly run AI code but are still helpful/necessary and for the most part better represented (and supported) in the Python world, although that seems like it's slowly changing.

Maybe I've aged out of it or something but the userbase has gotten so much more annoying (and was already annoying when I finally started using it around 2010) over the last several years, that I've almost entirely quit it. I used to mod large subs, I started a company with a group of guys I met on Reddit (and we still have our own group chat), and its just completely lost all appeal to me. It's like every user is the annoying college freshman that thinks they're an expert on all things because of half a semester of intro physics.

And destroying the rest of their economy to do it

It’s like a whole post of all the things you’re not supposed to do with Python, nice.

Also years for both for me (I probably read and watched them in 2003), but your impression of the two is the exact same as mine.

Battle Royale was a novel before it was a movie, and it's a much better novel than movie.

No, doping is a specific set of techniques that use proteins (EPO) or specially extracted blood to boost the red blood cell count in the blood, increasing oxygen carrying capacity.

Anything else is just marketing.

tbf I've never seen expiration dates on fresh produce in the US. Maybe some packaged salads and things (and it's never accurate, of course), but nothing fresh.
