Do you keep the history of applied migrations? (Just in case subtle issue need to be investigated later)

> they found SO many inconsistencies between environments

This implies somebody with admin rights makes alterations in ad-hoc way without first doing it in test env.

If they continue with adhoc stuff, then it means auto-generated migrations will be different in test vs prod. (I prefer to test exactly same thing that will be used in prod)

Migrations give more control.

    Alter table foo add column bar;
    Update foo set bar=baz;
    Alter table foo modify column bar NOT NULL;

"Llm thinks" is false advertising. (Maybe useful jargon, but still)

> Any Turing complete system can emulate any other Turing complete system, and an LLM can trivially be made to execute a Turing machine if you put a loop around it

Wouldn't it be more efficient to erase the LLM and use underlying hardware as Turing complete system?

BTW. Turing test is just admission that we have now way of defining human level intelligence apart from "you'll know it when you see it".

Hopefully constructive: Touch controls. If finger is lifted off, even for a second, new "center" is registered, which makes it quite hard to control without looking where the"center" is. Nice soundtrack, quite relaxing.

> AGI doesn’t mean smarter than the best humans.

Technically no, but practically...

12 year old limitations are: A. gets tired, needs sleep B. I/O limited by muscles

Probably there are more, but if 12 year old could talk directly to electric circuits and would not need sleep or even a break, then that 12 year old would be leaps and bounds above the best human in his field of interest.

(Well motivation to finish the task is needed though)

Uranium deposits are relatively small. It will last 200 years or so.
