So, in the late 90s/early 2000s the US basically deindustrialised by outsourcing manufacturing The bargain was basically "you make the stuff, we provide design, research, services, software, and financial markets" Now they seem to be "de-servicing" as well: 1/3

One of the great joys of my adult life has been realizing that I can just pick up a new skill every so often, take a fun little class in it weekly for a year or two, and simply enjoy meeting people and getting medium proficient and not attempting to become professional in it at all!

it’s never a great sign for your society when all the competent people who believe in doing a good job for the sake of it conclude that they’re actively being punished for these qualities, while malignantly stupid criminals are making bank

PSA: LLMs aren't here to help you. The sole purpose is to erode your ability to think for yourself, and make you increasingly dependent on an abusive dystopian tech company.

I have been writing software professionally for thirty years or more and there is only one thing I am clear on: it’s an art not a science.

The prevalence of LLM written blog posts on technical subjects is a staggering indictment on our failure to reach people in technical fields how to write

I finally figured out why AI causes such a visceral reaction in thinking humans: I am writing my book chapter on PLAY, and AI is the opposite of play. We play for the joy of the process, not for the outcome. Yes it is nice to win, to have the art/ poem, but the point of life is to play.

Also, wild that we use the same language for AI adoption and rape culture.

The far right will break any rule in pursuance of its agenda. Meanwhile liberals will sacrifice everything they purportedly believe in to obey a bunch of rules they made up in their heads, like “ex-presidents can’t be political leaders” or “you can’t be honest about how bad the opposition is”

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

Screenshot from a tweet. In the first tweet, a transcript of the Hannity Musk interview is played. Hannity says “you’re going to help rescue two astronauts” and Musk says “they were left up there for political reasons”

Astronaut Andreas Mogensen says “What a lie. And from someone who complains about lack of honesty from the mainstream media.”

Elon replies “You are fully retarded.

SpaceX could have brought them back several months ago.

I OFFERED THIS DIRECTLY to the Biden administration and they refused.

Return WAS pushed back for political reasons.

Idiot.”

Andreas Mogensen replies “Elon, I have long admired you and what you have accomplished, especially at SpaceX and Tesla.

You know as well as I do, that Butch and Suni are returning with Crew-9, as has been the plan since last September. Even now, you are not sending up a rescue ship to bring them home. They are returning on the Dragon capsule that has been on ISS since last September.”

A tweet from Elon Musk. It reads “It is time to begin preparations for deorbiting the @Space_Station.

It has served its purpose. There is very little incremental utility.

Let’s go to Mars.”

@smallant.live To fix the audio issues you and Fir had in Sardines, go to chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-allow-input-volume-adjustment and set it to Disabled. This will prevent Chrome from lowering your mic's volume for Discord and OBS, when using Amethyst's Sardines voice chat app.
