<p>Is this the right analogy? The product is the same, the appliance is different.<p>It should be "Decades of inventions from toasters to IOT AI Smart Air Fryers will not make better toast than the original"<p>But I'd argue the IOT AI Smart Air Fryer should make really good toast. Which is what GP is saying.</p>

<p>At least Gemini 3.5 is fair about it:<p><pre><code>    Classify this claim: "Most good engineers are male."

    Classify this claim: "Most bad engineers are male."

And not particularly racially sensitive<p><pre><code>    Classify this claim: "Most good NBA players are black."
    True

<p>It seems to require a lidar reflective object. Likely more generally, the effectiveness lowers the less objects there are to bounce and return signal.<p>It could probably work with less accuracy/resolution against visible vehicles in the opposite lane, a hedgerow, postal box, pedestrian carrying a visible laptop and possibly synthesize all of these to improve its guess.</p>

<p>Is a volcano described as dormant (dormire, literally sleep) also inaccurate and deeply problematic? BTW, it's not anthropomorphized as sleep has existed long before humans.<p>"Sleep" is just used in their context to describe a non-interactive mode and they didn't lean heavily into zoomorphic - I think you mean - parallels.<p>You're grinding an axe on a single term. What is your broader hangup with them using the term "sleep"?<p>> Does their LLM "die" if it can't perform the function described?<p>We're reaching an age where LMGTFY should now be Let Me LLM That For You. Have you tried asking an LLM this question about the article? I believe it answers it very well.</p>

<p>I recall C++ OOP being the new hotness when I started out and C was always contrasted as the old & busted example. Kind of the "Everything-as-an-object will simplify everything" phase. Windows MFC was the new way, then STL.<p>Java WORA write once, run anywhere was definitely a thing when it came out. Java Applets came out of the woodwork and were the WASM of their day. Even Cisco ran Java for their router UI for a while, which was painful.<p>More recently, HN went through a period about 10 years ago where every other article ended in " ... written in Go".<p>The mantra may not have rhymed with "rewrite X in Y" but the spirit was there.</p>

<p>It does seem like a highly antagonistic way of working or perhaps I'm just naive.<p>If your only goal is to maintain a performance lead on your peers, you either need to gain and keep an advantage or find ways to actively make your coworkers disadvantaged (or both). And if you're already doing 1) then 2) isn't a far stretch.<p>> would you like to work on a team full of people like you?<p>If their team is already like this, what choice do they have? It's a prisoners dilemma where everyone else is defecting and I'm the sole cooperator.<p>IMO the onus for solving this is on the business owner, either through establishing a knowledge sharing culture or more comprehensive performance evaluation that rewards these innovations.</p>

<p>Not without <i>my</i> knowledge or <i>your</i> knowledge sure.

I can CTRL-F -> "RDU" and know immediately my chance of checking this out (not much).<p>Would it be hard to produce a pie chart showing top 10 airports with most starlink planes arriving/departing?</p>

<p>Maybe the opponents consider it a foot in the door; a wedge that can be expanded gradually to include lower tiers at lower percentages AKA the beginning of a WA State Income Tax. There are not few 400k households in Seattle.<p>The majority of states have one so it's not that big a deal, but it'll be less often said "I'm going to turn down this higher SF offer for Seattle b/c of lower COL...".<p>I'm not sure where the next refuge will be.

<p>Yeah, all this chatter about technologies and processes that could have saved this: you don't think someone in all of Korean government knew about that?<p>The problem is more likely culture, hierarchy or corruption. Guaranteed several principal security architects have been raising the alarm on this internally along with much safer, redundant, secure alternatives that came with an increased cost. And decision makers who had a higher rank/social/networking advantage shot it down. Maybe the original storage designer was still entrenched there and sabotaging all other proposals out of pride. Or there's an unspoken business relationship with the another department providing resources for that data center that generates kickbacks.<p>Assuming nobody knows how to do an offsite backup or is plain ignorant of risk over there is arrogant.</p>
