They aren’t mutually exclusive. They can be both.

They aren’t mutually exclusive, goons can goon.

goon ≠ gooner

I moved into a house with a smart fridge. I connected it to the Internet because I thought the idea of a smart fridge was funny. It can send push notifications if the door is left open, that’s realistically the only useful feature I think.

Yes, there are multiple moments where they have to get to a landline to get out. if they could extract via cellphone then there wouldn’t be any tension around them needing to extract.

Reread the post. They never leave the matrix through cellphones, only landlines.

I can get that. Whenever I am sharing my screen or someone is watching me use a computer I turn into a boomer. I can’t type. I can’t find anything. I lose where the mouse is. Very annoying!

I used to work in a deli. Our scales gave weights in decimals, people always ordered in fractions. One day someone asked for an eighth of a pound. My coworker asks me “Is that .8?” I politely told her “it’s .125, so it needs to say about .13.” I guess part of it was panic, maybe if she had thought about it for a second she would have gotten it, but to think it’s more than a half pound was crazy. People ask for a half pound all the time.

Hmmm, could be numbers k such that phi(k) divides k+1, where phi is Euler’s totient function or perhaps numbers k such that every base-4 digit of k is a base-6 digit of k? Quite the puzzler.

Do you think the definitions are different enough that chickens don’t fall under the majority of them?

What do you think sentient means?

If you say clavicular three times in a bathroom mirror, he’ll appear and chase you with a hammer to even our your cheek bones

Don’t you know? Click bait headlines have to say “someone”

The difference here is that I can reasonably believe the quarter second of spray being an accurate serving, but nobody has just one tictac.

It’s honestly hard to say. It’s very impressive what AI coding can do, especially in the past year, but all AI companies are not making a profit. They’re effectively subsidized by investors. They’re focused on growth. At some point they’re gonna need to make a profit, they cannot continually operate at a loss and focus on growth. In fact, when Microsoft started charging properly it was such a massive deal that they called it the tokenpocalypse.

Honestly, I hate to say it, and I’m not trying to be a tech bro, but I think AI is here to say. What exactly it looks like long term, it’s hard to say. I can say this though, knowing how to program will make you a better vibe coded (I feel dirty saying that seriously). So even if AI becomes the norm, you’ll be better positioned if you know what you’re doing.

When things turn though, it’s impossible to say. It could be in the next year, could be like five years out. It could be that when you’re done with your four year degree, they’re still out here doing this “AI is gonna fix everything and we don’t need junior devs” song and dance.

TL;DR: AI is not profitable now so will get more expensive meaning they’ll have to use it less. Either way, knowing how to program without AI will make you better at programming with AI.

Always take the lump sum!

My mom was weirdly prudish in the '90s and early '00s, I don’t really know why. Like she wouldn’t let me watch Dexter’s Lab because she thought it was gross or something? Idk. Weird time.

My mom told me never to click “I’m feeling lucky” because she thought it had something to do with porn because it’s a phrase people would say about sex.
