If AI were the status quo, and we were suggesting replacing it with humans, what would the argument be for that?

As a lifelong engineer, no I don’t remember us taking “pride in precision, rigorous testing, safety standards, sufficient margins for error, etc”. It must have been before my time

So far no labour saving device in the history of humanity has resulted in a long-term reduction in employment.

The problem with AI assisted hacking is that the bad guys are small groups that can rapidly adopt new tech, and the targets are corporate and government behemoths that are still debating whether to adopt DevOps

The Premier League might seek for the Man City owners to be declared “not fit and proper” and demand a change of ownership. Whatever they do it has to suggest that City will change, and that not cooperating with the league is not acceptable

Here's today's Did You Notice? video and it's all about how Brighton broke some of the unwritten rules about modern pressing in their win against Arsenal.

Being a computer scientist who refuses to find anything about LLMs interesting right now is a bit like being a geneticist who refuses to find anything interesting about the recently opened Jurassic Park

They won’t like you calling it “Liverpool’s Everton FC”. Liverpool are their hated rivals.

My favourite part of the Guimarães goal is Tzolis hugging Raya, and Raya just wanting to talk tactics with Arteta

Arguably Arsenal’s low xG has nothing to do with Raya. By the time the ball gets to him the xG has accrued. They should take his Golden Gloves trophies off him and give them to the defenders

The most annoying thing is that the mainstream media isn’t cognitively impaired. They are doing what works best for them and giving their audiences what they want

I remember Frank Lampard babysitting Chelsea for the last few games of the season one time, and Chelsea doing so badly that the Arsenal fans were singing the “Super Frankie Lampard” song

When my book comes out, it’ll be up against Captain underpants and every manga. Preordering my book helps me make the best seller list. I’m in it for the glory
Me holding my fabulous new hardcover collection of comics, out in October! Only a month and a half out— Can you believe it?? Preordering a copy will help my book achieve a best seller title, a true underdog tale. Floating around my head like grim reminders of my reality are the latest Captain Underpants book, and a manga titled the Sadistic Nobleman’s Favorite.

There should be a genre of board game that you play directly out of the box, and at any moment you can close the lid and put it away and open it up later to keep playing (Then it has to be simple enough for the play and storage to all fit in the box, but complicated enough to be worth returning to)

“Resumable board game” suggests pen and paper games, or card games such as deck builders. For simpler games we have taken a photo and restarted from that. If state is stored by physical location of pieces, and there’s a lot of pieces, it’s inherently hard to put away and restart

As an autistic parent of autistic kids, there’s a long hard nasty lesson to learn that a lot of the problems of raising autistic kids actually turns out to be the problem of being an autistic parent

Not having kids because you think the future is too unpleasant for them to cope, is analogous to murdering someone because you think you’re doing them a favour. They are both causing the non-existence of someone without their being involved in the decision

I wanted England to win obvs but couldn’t get emotionally invested in this tournament the way I have been in the past. The last few years of Arsenal has fatigued me mentally/emotionally + all the inhumane & other political stuff around the last two hosts has been a massive turn off FIFA too.

With Penelope Keith’s passing, I got to thinking about Paul Eddington, in his final days, facing the camera that one last time, despite the shitty hand life had dealt him, and the courage it must have taken to do so. Given the chance to spin some grandstanding bullshit, he chose to say this instead:
“A journalist once asked me what I would like my epitaph to be and I said I think I would like it to be ‘he did very little harm’. And that’s not easy. Most people seem to me to do a great deal of harm. If I could be remembered as having done very little, that would suit me”.

When I say that modularity & composability are now crucial as large, coupled codebases consume more context, I see raised eyebrows. Meanwhile, they are constantly running out of tokens while I haven't hit a usage limit in months. If you think architecture no longer matters, joke’s on you.
