Jobs is a hack who promoted rampant consumerism and e-waste backed by slave-like manufacturing conditions. People need to stop putting him on a pedestal as separate from other Big Tech founders. He's just the flavor of egomaniac that appealed to your personality.

Reads like GPT attended a cult initiation.

The kids don't care about the integrity of the systems or their educations because they can see that all the benefits of a traditional education and career are predicated on a future that probably won't exist.

It's a rational response to entrenched elites that prevent realization of the very social contracts they push on the youth (hard work will equal success, home ownership is a fundamental, etc).

Combined with the looming specter of climate doom, and watching the adults do nothing about it, treating preparation for a conventional career as a scam to be counter-scammed makes a certain sense.

So your downside here is problems get solved faster?

I already did that for 40 years I'll be a'ight

I mentally demote anything that says "maxxing" to the stupid pile

Where's GLM?

If it's good enough, sure. Not much of it is.

But there's also the whole epistemic issue of "if it's good enough, you won't know it's AI." My AI-dar is pretty keen but given the quantity of things I read and the quantity of AI stuff out there, it's entirely likely something I thought was human and liked was actually AI. In which case, there doesn't seem much point in getting retroactively upset about it if someone later tells me. shrug

Relieved to learn that my small peen is merely a projection of my energetic spiritual being.

Mehhhhhhhh

I guess you can write an article about every new gigabyte released, and we can use more gigabytes talking about it, but other than that I don't see that any one gigabyte of software I don't want is especially more noteworthy than any other gigabyte of software I don't want.

An xBox game can be 50+ gigs. Millions of gamers. Fire up the presses!

I'm not at all saying nothing matters so we shouldn't care. I just disagree about the utility of calling out specific things out of proportion to their place in the climate crisis. Tackle AI, yes, and fast fashion and cars, and ... that one change to Chrome? I guess if that's where you want to put your energy, Sisyphus.

I process the manual ID reviews for a small system. I don't get many, but I have seen some funny stuff. Last week a kid tried to use a still from a Spiderman movie.

Framing 4GB of data moving in a world of petabytes of traffic as a specific environmental disaster is kind of a stretch, regardless of whether we want the model.

It's surprisingly easy to hit $200 worth of tokens even at ~$1/M token though. No matter how many times I do the math the coding plans are the better value.

ugh with the "maxxing" everything

My transpiles are bad enough to sit on a rubber donut.

That's so brilliant that it's already a thing called openrouter!

Uninstall TikTok, listen to less shitty music, have less first world problems.

Mac only? Meh.

great list but really overboard on the AI generated persona

Have you considered that the people finding passion in vibe coding are enjoying the journey? I think what you are lamenting is that other people aren't on the same journey you took.

Your destination is only a point somewhere on what they perceive as the journey. You're saying, well, if they don't go where I did and stop when I did, it was no proper journey.

Are you asking if the world is fair? No. No, it is not.

There is a point where English becomes harder than Latin.

Applied for access. I hope to test a parallel fast-inference problem solver with a hybrid MCTS approach.

I don't know the use of this yet but I'm certain there will be one.

The reason we can't tell the difference is commercial music is already ridiculously formulaic and derivative and focus-grouped.

Actual ethical constraints or just some companies ToS or some BS view-from-nowhere general risk aversion approved by legal compliance?

I prefer flat files too. I'd rather have mostly manual control of context.

I think the desire to not centralize identity has more to do with it than anything. We present different facets to different communities. The pseudo-indelible nature of internet commentary means saying something to anyone potentially means saying it to everyone, in any context.

That's why people have multiple fediverse accounts, to limit context or purpose of communication channels. Not because they don't value genuine communication within those channels.
