Feingold served another 10 years following his vote on the Patriot Act.

Why are you writing the same view twice?

Despair is not a tribe.

Idioms can be much more dense than otherwise.

Seeing what "we" need to do to build a better future as described by an author that doesn't appear to have a wife, children or any attachment to a permanent home reads to me a lot like an offseason blog post by a Chicago Bears fan talking about what "we" need to do to get better next year.

DS 4.1 flash at a thousands of tps for a recurring cost approaching 0? Sign me up as fast as possible.

> I explain that, if they don’t write the code, they will not be able to effectively read the code. The ability to read code is certainly going to be valuable, maybe more valuable, in an AI-based coding future.

I'm not certain of this. Thinking back to when I first started in my career after graduation- I remember feeling like my ability to write code had improved greatly during my time in school. Meanwhile, my ability to read code felt like it had barely improved at all. Even now, after over a decade in the industry, while both skills have improved tremendously, I still feel like my ability to read and internalize code is not at the level I would like or assume it to be simply as a result of my experience.

It could very well be that reading and writing are two separate (though related) skills that require intentional practice and honing on their own. I can't speak for everyone, but reading code as a skill, for me, only really began to develop once I had a job where it was expected of me.

Maybe it's possible to learn to read code without learning to write it. It certainly feels like its possible to learn to write it without learning to read it.

I don't know about "freaking out", but I'd say I'm having a good time here with DS 4.1 flash.

Have agents play the game 1000s of times and distil the gameplay itself into a new game.

Lmao what's got them so tired? Too many brunch dates?

Is having tunnels in their own territory a problem?

AI is in its 1999 JLO If You Had My Love phase.

Though if 2010, the year that Lost in the World was released, is your marker of an awful era, then I suspect that when generative ai does get used to create real art you will likely not be a fan of that either.

That used to be true of autotune too. It was either tastefully hidden, or obvious and trashy. Then projects like 808s and Heartbreak and Tha Carter III put it front and center and it's been a legitimate tool ever since.

I didn't know if generative ai has a strong enough signature to go through the same evolution, but I wouldn't be shocked if it did.
