So he fed millions of profiles into a summarization machine and was surprised to find no sharp edges? Crazy work.

He's not very young, he just acts that way.

It's probably just a mistranslation, in some languages jet engines are called "reaction engines".

> may have built observability dashboards and audit logs, but those are editable and partisan

Why would these be editable?

The great thing about not making any money in a department is that all the money-hungry people flee the org, and people who are more invested in "doing things right" stick around. The bad news, of course, is that you're not making any money, which is bad for your long-term survival.

Conflating unavoidable risk in life with games designed to entice you to play while guaranteeing that you will lose is certainly some sort of perverse argument.

There is not reason whatsoever to hyphenate "writing style".

Oh no, how will you write clearly without hyphens?

This book is probably 90% of my understanding of how why so many transistors can add up to a CPU, and I didn't learn any programming for a good ten years after I pored through that book as a kid (for me it was "The new way things work", updated for the computer age).

I won’t tell you, you’re just gonna have to tokenmaxx in a vain attempt to chase the dragon.

This can be used to have zero-proof knowledge of "over 18" or "not over 18". So they don't really get your age, except that you are in two broad ranges.

I think this is just a way of breaking up the quote that adds attribution in the middle. Probably a common reporting phrasing more so than an LLM invention (Or maybe it's a real quote in both cases, but they used an LLM to write parts of the article, just making sure the quotes are correct in the end).

Separate people are easier to control, collective action is anathema to the ruling class.

"Quality" of the harness matters a lot to the user experience, and the construction of the harness will depend on the behavior/quirks of the underlying model. So, if you're using Claude Code, you can expect it to work best with Anthropic models, and expect other model-makers to want you to use the harness they've developed.

But mostly vendor lock-in, I imagine.

This isn’t a job board for high-paying SE jobs. It’s for people who want to gamble on joining early-stage startups.

Another reason is to refine your point of view, which is most effectively done when it is challenged.

I mean this is a specific case where you literally have a spec to code against. Not all coding endeavors have that opportunity, unfortunately.

The mandated low margin is part of the problem. When your margins are regulated, the only way to increase profits is to just make everything more expensive. More revenue, same margin, more profits. Humane health care is incompatible with free market economics.
