Ecto is by far the closest thing to a perfect pattern for abstracting over sql that I've ever seen. I WISH other languages would create similar libraries. Its the biggest thing keeping me coming back to elixir for any kind of database project. it just makes sql so ergonomic.

The whole world is swinging in that direction. its not like the US is any better in that respect in our current political climate.

one thing I've come to respect about the Chinese is that while they make huge decisions that sometimes have disastrous consequences, they don't make the same mistakes twice.

At this point they have fed information from their environmental impacts into reforesting entire mountains and improving air quality.

They went in on Evs. not just subsidies but recognizing that you need an entire supply chain. so while americans bitch constantly about the failing power grid and how we can't switch to evs cuz it would be disastrous, the chinese built renewable energy projects and a massive DC transmission line accross the entire country. This is also a big part of why they can provide AI services for way less than america can.

same reason they are really out to disqualify jurors who know about jury nullification https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jury_nullification

children don't tend to object to losing rights they never had in the first place.

get them used to livign with less rights and a lower standard of living and they wont' know what was taken away from them.

yea, you know who they are, I know who they are and we all knoww what they are tryin to hide. but anyone who spells it out will get downvoted to hell here.

we're increasingly irrelevant

by definition, a single prompt wont' constitute the complexity of a software project. ergo, what you'll get is a series of assumptions made by the model based on preexisting code in its training corpus.

I'd rather see a coding agent that can follow steps in a plan file to a T while following guardrails and adhering to the proper coding conventions in the human reviewed spec.

Id rather see performance in agent loops against human defined objectives where it can be verified to stick to defined guardrails and continue without drift till its objectives are complete.

I'd also like to see it identify bugs and potential performance increases by identifying existing code and suggesting refactors based on context it can pickup about the particular use case you are trying to create.

These are way more valuable metrics than "hey build X"

just happy to have more models that I could eventually play with if hardware ever becomes cheaper.

step 2: find a way to solve that problem for less money than they are willing to pay

step 3: AI???

where exactly have students "literally" called for genocide of jews?

The only people I've heard the "kill them all" mentality blatently to my face so far have been pro israel zionists.
