One of my very first BASIC programs was an analog clock. That’s how I learned sine/cosine before being officially introduced to them at school… I’m deeply concerned about future generations of programmers and mathematicians.

Models aren’t THAT good, after all.

Good point! It’s like, idle games (constant trickle of dopamine) versus Dark Souls (endless toil, but so rewarding when you finally slay the giant boss)

Writing code by hand, for your employer, isn’t what most people consider “fun”, anyways

I’ve already read so many sci-fi novels where the part of the plot was that human communication infrastructure became unusable due to AI shenanigans… not here to read another one, thank you very much.

What’s even more shocking to me: one can “3D-print” downloaded genome, too! What a time to be alive.

Interesting… did you boil the water with you inside of it?

Can’t we use LLMs as models to study delusional patterns? Like, try things that are morally questionable to try on a delusional patient. For instance, LLM could come up with a personalized argument that would convince someone to take their antipsychotics, that’s what I’m talking about. Human caretakers get frustrated and burned out too quickly to succeed

Ah! So, that’s why brew no longer updates yt-dlp on my iMac from 2017 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like I always say to my friends & family who are complaining about Duolingo not really teaching anything: it beats doomscrolling, what else do you want?

Very cool! The repo is a reference for minimalism. Also, TIL about ifeq in Makefile. So, many thanks!

Been there, done that... Not worth it
