Genuinely curious…is it rare because there are less kidnappers, or because parents are more vigilant and there is less opportunity for them to commit the crime?

Jet engines are significantly more complex. You don’t know whah you are talking about.

As someone in the industry it is amusing to watch HN do some cursory googling and then make definitive statements with confidence.

I would argue that testing code is “Risk Mitigation” not “Risk Management”.

It is nuanced, but at least in large Systems Engineering orgs, Risk Management is typically a different thing entirely.

It entails documenting known risks, evaluating the likelihood and potential impacts, defining mitigating actions, tracking the closure of those actions and the resultant reduction in the likelihood of the risk manifesting.

This is both centralized and distributed. The specific SMEs provide most of this input/definition, but it is also useful to have a centralized understanding of all the system risks by someone with a system level purview.

If he already knew how to code in other object oriented languages, and was really just learning C++ syntax over the weekend, it’s not as much of a stretch.

Asking in good faith, what incentives changed exactly?

And once AGI occurs, will the value of the original investment even matter?

Based on what?

I would buy one today if I had somewhere to reliably and conveniently charge it.

I live in an apartment complex without charging infrastructure. Don’t want to drive to nearby charging station and wait/coordinate rides to and from. My place of work doesn’t have enough charging infrastructure to support demand.

Not sure why, but I found this gave me a lot of anxiety.

I think maybe the focus and fine motor control needed to keep the ball within the lines…

I’m assuming the generative AI functions are not running purely locally and would be sharing your data to Microsoft/OpenAI ?

When I was younger I routinely worked late nights (I’d work normal business hours, then go grab a subway and come back to the office and work until 10-12. I enjoy working alone at night, and I wasn’t using that free time productively, so I figured why not. It did help my career trajectory significantly.

As I’ve gotten older and have better uses for my time I find myself working a ~40hr week and checking out. Occasionally if I have a challenging problem that requires deep focus I’ll log on at night, but only because I like the satisfaction of “the grind” every now and then.

If you are using the OpenAI APIs then are all your user’s emails making it onto their servers?

Any references for this? I would like to read further.

I agree. I am currently stuck in a rut where everything seems meaningless, and I can’t find the motivation to do much of anything.

I desperately yearn for a meaning/purpose to serve as a source of internal motivation…

Up until now, the only thing that has been a “motivation” for me is a fear of failure, so that’s what I rely on to get anything done.
