By trying out different things and deciding which ones you like? Mind you this also means you must be willing to try things you will regret later and they must not stop you from continuing. Because taste develops much later than regrets are felt.

Intelligence per second is a great metric. I never could fully articulate why I like Gemini 3 Flash but this is exactly why. It’s smart enough and unbelievably fast. Thanks for sharing this

Bad quality is already a cost of doing business and has been for years. Does AI write perfect code? No, but guess what. It writes better code than any of my coworkers. And my boss not only never was complaining about them but also tries to hire more of them all the time.

Because when human comes to the team they already have internal repository with skills. They may need to update them on-the-job or create new ones but they never start fresh. LLM in the other hand starts clean, they are literally blank slates and it’s your job to equip them with the right skills and knowledge. As programmers we must transition from being coders to being trainers/managers if we want to still have premium paid jobs in this brave new world

Does AI write 100% correct code? No, but under my watch it writes code that is more correct than anything that anyone else on the team contributed in past year or more. Even better when it is wrong I don’t have to spend literal hours arguing with it nor I have to be mindful how what I’m saying affects others feelings so I get to spend more time on actual work. All in all it’s a net positive

I believe that collectively we passed that point long before the onset of LLMs. I have a feeling that throughout the human history vast amounts of people ware happy to outsource their thinking and even pay to do so. We just used to call those arrangements religions.

> is design[ing] better killing tools necessarily evil?

Great question! To add my two cents. I think many people here is missing an uncomfortable truth that given enough motivation to kill other humans, people will re-purpose any tool into a killing tool.

Just have a look at the battlefields in the Ukraine where the most fearsome killing tool is a FPV drone. A thing that just few years back was universally considered a toy.

Whether we like it or not any tool can be a killing tool

One is a feeling the other is an emotion. It still amazes me why, as a society, we keep treating them as the same.

When it comes to GPU mining (especially ETH) it is very common to undervolt / power limit a GPU as it reduces power usage greatly so the temperatures are lower than usually. Power consumption together with the price of kWh is an important factor that affects mining profitability

So the very same people who advocate mass surveillance by the state are concerned with the privacy of their own communications?
