I'm just so tired of the narrative.

It didn't really bother me during the altcoin/nft scam era, other than from time to time trying to explain at a normie that they were mostly scams, you know the concept that if you want to sell an asset for X you have to find somebody willing to buy.

But at least you could simply ignore all the mentally ill megalomaniacs that were like duude this is the future

This time instead it's so pervasive that you can simply not excape the narrative and simply concentrate on the good stuff about the technology. It's the narrative, the pressure, the whole global situation, not AI in general

well i have a couple of laptops at work that are dedicated to programming/test software.

A touch screen would be actually better than a laptop, but android tablet won't cut it (we make some of the test hardware so are in control of the drivers, but for most of it we don't)

Disagree. I like my S3425DW (and my oled laptop) much more than whatever my colleague's macs

one of the points is that LLMs are NOT deterministic so you can't run them yourself a thousand times and expect the same output.

have you ever played first party titles on the switch?

the level of polish and stability on the open world zeldas is astonishing, i never experienced anything like that in third party AA/AAA games form the last 15 years or so, playing on the switch or on the pc.
