Can someone please explain to me the particular brainrot people seem to have about porting code to Rust when .NET is just right there for you?

Data centers promise jobs but hire few people That's why I propose a law that every data center must hire 1,000 Priests of Data to worship the computers, pray to the servers, light candles, etc. The priests will boost the local economy and fill the air with the sweet sound of their Gregorian chants

I do say this non-jokingly: If you want to use AI tools built by serious people are aren’t in sex cults, Copilot and the emerging MAI family of models is decidedly none of that mess

Good article mirroring my own experience. Most people make slop posters because they just don’t even try with a design style. I’ve also tried the “that’s an example of what not to do” trick and it works very well ukslim.github.io/2026/06/07/a...

3+ years in and I finally found a second durable, useful application of LLMs for product management work; 1. Text to sql for data warehouse shit 2. Automated scan of competitor docs and marketing materials written to an issue I tried (2) for years and it always sucked but it’s finally good now

Really good article from Ben Evans www.ben-evans.com/benedictevan...
I think you can see all of this in the experience of enterprise AI deployment in the last three years. Every big company gave everyone Copilot (or maybe ChatGPT or Claude) and a small number of people are using this a lot (some of whom actually increased their productivity), while a larger set of people are using it a couple of times a week and a lot of the rest of your company isn't really using it at all. This is partly a change management and a training problem, but it's mostly the same problem that you would have had if you'd given everyone in the company a PC and Lotus 123 in 1983, or an internet connection and a web browser in 1997. How exactly does this map to everybody's tasks and the problems they actually have this week? Yes, you did give everybody a PC and Lotus, but that wasn’t how you transformed the efficiency of your invoice processing. Yes, you gave everybody a web browser, but that wasn't how you rebuilt your supply chain management around the internet, and it certainly wasn't how a retailer managed e-commerce.

Watching artists be so full of themselves over PDN is absolutely ridiculous. Image manipulation software is heterogeneous in nature. PDN is an artist’s tool as much as it is a “spreadsheet person’s” tool.

How accurate have Ed Zitron's AI skeptic predictions been? danluu.com/zitron/


    Feb 2024: "I believe we're reaching the upper limits about what generative AI can do and how accurate its outputs can be."
        Wrong4
    March 2024: "Have We Reached Peak AI?"; another prediction that hallucinations mean that AI progress is limited to then-current levels
        Wrong
    April 2024: "As I previously warned, artificial intelligence companies are running out of data ..."; another prediction that models can't improve because there's no more data
        Wrong
    June 2024: OpenAI growth is stalling (with the implication it will continue to stall), which will lead to some kind of collapse of OpenAI
        Wrong (it could be the case that OpenAI will collapse but, if so, it won't be due to any kind of growth stall from 2024)
    July 2024: "Generative AI, as I said back in March, is peaking, if it hasn't already peaked. It cannot do much more than it is currently doing, other than doing more of it faster with some new inputs"
        Wrong
    July 2024: "Generative AI models aren’t getting more energy-efficient, nor are they getting more “powerful” in a way that would increase their functionality, nor are they even capable of automating things on their own [July 2024]"
        Wrong5
    August 2024: "generative AI is a dead-end technology that has peaked”
        Wrong
    August 2024: re-iteration that the AI bubble has 3 quarters to prove itself (from March 2024) or there will be a collapse
        Wrong6
    September 2024: "o1 shows that OpenAI is both desperate and out of ideas", with a re-iteration of the idea that models can't improve due to lack of data
        Wrong
    Oct 2024: OpenAI's forecast of $3.7B revenue in 2024 and $11.6B in 2025 and $100B in 2029 are absurd, "a statement so egregious that I am surprised it's not some kind of financial crime to say it out loud"
        Wrong (2025 goal exceeded, 2029 TBD but not an egregious financial crime level of implausible)
    Oct 2024: "[OpenAI revenue] growth is already slowing…

Hard to say if this is a true AI disruption or just a correction, but my intuition certainly is that their current platform posuture of “frontier detection at deterministic speeds” is not much of a value add www.businessinsider.com/snyk-employe...

Snyk was worth $8.5 billion. The price of its employees' stock has collapsed.
Snyk, a once-hot cyber startup poised to go public, has dramatically marked down the value of its employees' shares as it faces AI competition.
