If I recall from The Dollop Podcast correctly, corn flakes were first used as a douche.

Just support anything that isn’t Google and gets the job done.

They are all some binary file that completes a task. That LLMs have a statistically derived “personality” (if one would be dangerous enough to call it that) to make people like them was a purposeful mistake in development to trick people into embracing the technology. LLM is non-deterministic by nature which means results can never be trusted.

Honestly, the Photoshop filter analogy may be wrong because the filter is deterministic. The same settings produce the same results every time as it is math on an image file. LLMs literally can’t do that.

LLM tech is only seeing more “reliable” results now as they often throw the tool against a sandbox environment where it has to execute deterministic code to compensate for the random unreliability, and it still screws up.

Linus knows code, the tool sped up his process. In the absence of his knowledge, it would be useless.

Neat toy, but way too inefficient to bank the future on, and very dangerous to have such a religious reaction to.

LLMs are akin to fancy Photoshop filters for code. They can be used well by professionals and terrible by n00bs.

They are but a (very inefficient) tool.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System1 at least as a stopgap, a small-ish adtech company that may or may not be privacy focused (their claim) is still better than Google. But yeah.

Just to see the clear message in app metrics is a good thing though.

Wow, that’s a wild ride. Thanks for the deets.

Yes. Although the datacenters will likely kill themselves when the bubble pops. Still good to fight just the same and keep the pressure on. These loons will still have access to massive amounts of water and power even when the datacenters fail.

You probably mean Axon, and they are far older, they created the Taser.

He isn’t distracting. His mind is just gone.

That is likely exactly what that propaganda piece is for. “Don’t drink water, it’s silly anyway!”

Coupled with pushing sales of beverages for money.

I figure when the datacenter bubble bursts, the tech companies will keep consuming the same amounts of water and just start selling it.

Gotta find some way to the plot of The Water Knife. (Book has gas pumps that sell water, water meters next to sinks and showers, etc.)

100% it will happen. You know the process is broken, however, when Taco Bell is now the beacon of food safety.

Ubiquiti p2p microwave links for gigabit speed backhaul. But that defeats the purpose of Blockbuster.
