I happen to listen to ATP, a tech podcast of which Casey is a co-host.

I believe his family owns 2 cars, but had to replace one of them recently when a pebble caused a freak accident, essentially totaling the engine in one of the cars. Hence 3 cars purchased in 10 years.

Edit: Episode #592, at the very end: https://overcast.fm/+ABQnv4mYCFc/1:40:38

in casual use you might also be able to guess it from context, so i think it’s a wash

Hard disagree. As a. swiss voter, this is close to my heart.

50% of all energy in the swiss economy is oil / gas. Of the remaining 50% (electricity), 2/3 are generated by hydro. The remaining ~1/3 by nuclear fission.

Swiss electricity prices are sky-high, and the demand for electricity is going to continue to rise.

To remain a competitive industrial economy, to transition away from oil/gas, and to offset any potential losses of hydro power as glaciers melt, nuclear + solar is the only real path for switzerland.

Your argument holds across the supply-curve of software-engineering-skills. However, there must be some threshold where a previously employed dev is now sol because AI+Human outcompetes him (ie the supply curve has shifted, and the point they used to occupy is not unprofitable)

true, but ~all new users have a stronger mental model of how their phone works vs. big-screen devices.

but surely you realize that people going to kagi also don’t like google or bing.

These services run on the blockchain, right? So in effect, there is no blocking them.

Any answer to this question must also consider the current cost/token and its downward trajectory as algo and hardware advances drive down costs.

Good points, but consider what this post does prove: people’s arguments against AI art are shallow; they often attack the artifacts themselves instead of making your deeper argument.

It’s a great system until every department is angry at the one for messing up the system.

As a system provider you take responsibility not only for maintenance, but also to tank the blame once something invariably goes wrong

You could vibe a language, feed the spec into a model and vibe the flight sim.

Here’s my guess as to Apple's reasoning: They like to dominate suppliers, but TSMC is in such high demand that they’re on equal footing now. Going into bed with Intel gives them the chance to set strict terms again.

I think a huge gap in the market today is documentation that is both easy for humans to navigate and understand, but also readily ingestible for agents.

But it’s not like MIT gains anything from rolling their own LMS.

Might your impression of these pictures be colored by your life experience during that time, ie. you might have been in your early twenties with the iPhone 4, and those pictures carried the smell of that time in your life.

No because the goomba is the average of two real opinions, and the strawman is a distortion/reduction of any opinion such that its easy to argue against.

What‘s missing is considering why, if it were so easy, nobody has done that before they went out of business.
