Cancelled my Spotify subscription as well, although on account of being served generated music several times in automatic playlists.

Actually owning music I listen to now feels great, but I missed the automatic recommendations. Setting up a plexamp server right now, but am looking into jellyfin. I love how it's OS and community supported. Does it have a recommendation system?

You have to admit though, a very appropriate speaker for new graduates in 2026.

Remember when IBM claimed the same about Watson?

Yes, I meant the evidence of Epstein's associates including the current supreme leader raping underaged girls. Including the evidence of his ties to intelligence agencies. Would help explain some wars right now, I would think.

That little man has eroded any respect that he might have been a priori granted with his publicly documented descent into a vibecoding mania. I'm still in disbelief that the very silly photographer guy is the CEO of ycombinator. Ah well, it was a good era.

I'm a hair's breadth from switching to a Kimi plan at this point.

My apologies, I don't know where I got the ARM architecture part from. I really want one of those machines, but I guess if they can't approach MacBook battery life yet I'm stuck on MacOS for now.

They're talking about the new model announced, with a larger battery and ARM architecture. Not released yet, I don't think.

I wonder if the hardware or the software will be the first to make a dream dev machine happen - a MacBook Pro + Linux experience

either Asahi gets there from the software side or Framework gets there from the hardware side

There are ebbs and flows of absurdity, with the peaks being bubbly moments. I will never forget the fact that Dentacoin existed in 2017, and garnered attention for being a crypto token that you could use to pay your dentist. It's a multi billion dollar market! And the marketcap reached a $2 billion mark.

Thank you for correcting my misunderstanding! Let me pivot then-- I still argue that it is a fundamentally different case when it comes to LLMs.

1. Threatening young and educated people with not being able to realize the potential that they believed they were building for themselves is toying with social uprising.

2. Weaving is an apt example of redundancy on account of technological innovation but it's a poor comparison to LLMs where the narrative is that they will continue to get better until they approach a general intelligence level which would put a much much higher percentage of the population at risk of losing their jobs. Again, the segment of the population that has invested most into their skills, and will be the most angry and capable of organizing should that come to pass.

Weaving doesn't as aptly represent the core of what we as a species are good at and excel at, as knowledge work does.

The weavers had a rough go of it for sure, but at least they did not have to spend 4 years of their early adulthood being intellectually challenged in a higher education institution, often going into debt, in order to become qualified weavers.

I'm thinking LLMs lead to an AIG scenario (circa 2008) as opposed to AGI.
