The article does not get the point. What aircraft companies did was separate training and work, and SRE/IT typically does not.

An AI can handle routine incidents and then present learning cases from that routine work for training, because the skill in SRE is not the mechanical log grepping, grafana dashboard browsing etc but forming the hypothesis. AI incident reports can create training cases that are a much better training for hypothesis forming and testing than the work itself can.

Massive performance degradation is expected when continuing a session with a different model

I asked Fable on max to create a mathematical model to show that c (speed of light) is emergent from pregeometric physics.

It said: I can't, but it would be lazy to say that is is not a possibility.

With some back and forth it created a 5 step plan to narrow down if our universe has all the right properties for this to be true.

We evaluated the first four stages to be true, and it wrote the solver to find out if the fifth test running the full model passes, but that will take thousands of hours of compute.

Which has nothing to do with VCs, just with sourcing decisions.

Was impossible for me to solve, too, on mobile.

Dark forest makes no sense to me. Why would a civilization eradicate another, spending huge amounts of resources (time, energy, material) when the universe has such an enormous scale that you cannot even get to each other in a timescale that makes much sense...

Gemini 3 Pro:

This is a classic logistical puzzle!

Unless you have a very unique way of carrying your vehicle, you should definitely drive.

If you walk there, you'll arrive at the car wash, but your car will still be dirty back at your house. You need to take the car with you to get it washed.

Would you like me to check the weather forecast for $mytown to see if it's a good day for a car wash?

Did not work too well for me on mobile. One time it did not scroll but went back, one time controls were missing

Definitely not in the German speaking countries, we have different blinds. You pull a cord down for the blinds to go up, and vice versa. Then the cord is tied to a hook or button.

I was a bit frustrated with my performance in an online game (Battle royale genre) so I just messaged the once EU/NA #1 leaderboard player if he would do some coaching... Did it for one year, once a week, it was such a great experience. He is such a great individual and I took a lot of the mindset he taught me into my professional life

Are power outages even a thing? My PC at home (germany) is always on, so I'd notice, and I'm involved with energy at our data center (Frankfurt, Germany) and home and external data center had no outage for the last 20 years, at a minimum.

Might go up in flames, though, and literally
