A junior developer actually learns from doing the job, an LLM only learns when they update the training corpus and develop an updated model.

It’s usually vastly easier to verify an answer than posit one, if you have the patience to do so.

I usually write 3x the code to test the code itself. Verification is often harder than implementation.

When LLMs get it right it’s because they’re summarizing a stack overflow or GitHub snippet it was trained on. But you loose all the benefits of other humans commenting on the context, pitfalls and other alternatives.

Pepper Ridge Farms remembers when you could just do a web search and get it answered in the first couple results. Then the SEO wars happened…

The most disturbing line in the article is this righteous bit—“asked if any of his family had intermarried while in East Africa, he said in the interview on Thursday, ‘They’re all of Indian origin, from Gujarat.’”

The Bible accuses Canaanites of child sacrifice and that led to their judgement and destruction. And these fools think God is going to bless us for letting our children get murdered (and don’t even get my started on our hand in the death of Palestinian children).

At this point the constitution is just an excuse.

This empire is going to take a few generations to fall. Doubt I’ll see a revolution in my life time, but maybe my kids will get to see that silver lining.

America was always the 2nd Reich

3 times the budget for the Marines. Crazy

Says people should learn to speak English in America, cuts funding for English learning.

Eh, we need a cultural shift that neuters marketing or else people will always be subject to the whims of those with capital.

The new talking point is that man made climate change is real but burning oil isn’t causing the world to warm. But that does mean we can geoengineer our climate to be cooler. 🙃

Billionaires are happy to say people work harder when they’re desperate and boy the billionaires are working hard to smear this guy.

That’s less than I pay for healthcare ATM. Talk about a bargain!
