It just does not scale like people think. And that is why the price has to go up, and that is the forcing factor for max capacity of any given parcel of land.

The fact is we all can’t live in the same city. And people need to do what we did in the past. And that is move to new locations that are cheaper.

Every hot spot today once was a crappy place, it was over time that it became the desirable place. That is just how it works. You got to move and live where you can afford.

Every city has a max amount of occupancy, and density. It’s so silly to even think about this on the individual level. I can find 1BN people who want to live in NY today if told today they could have a place today for $500 a month but 1BN other people are also joining would instantly turn down the offer.

ChatGPT has helped me with all the wired social things I have no clue about. Like how long should a suit jacket be, what to pair with loafers. And more often than not I buy the things ChatGPT suggest.

ChatGPT lets me be normal.

Is this the new normal? Assert something, that id clearly broken as the correct, then write a blog fixing their broken logic?

You don’t replay it on retry. You signal it is a success on first try, and subsequent request with the same key return 409.

Anything else and you are doing it wrong.

This screams gate keeping.

My self and many who are experts in their fields were never formally trained. The titans that built the world of software we have today were mostly untrained in this specific field.

I think the article completely misses the point. If the artifacts created solve a problem then who cares who wrote the prompt or wrote the code.

Software ha changing, and holding in to old notions, titles, processes and rules to keep your status , title and importance seems silly.

When I was young I somehow figured out how to control my dreams. By the time I was an adult and working in software all my dreams were always iterating over solutions to problems I had at work. And every day I would come into the office with the ability to move forward on projects with insights in leaned that night while sleeping.

I why do we keep posting headlines like this. It’s not if the data center is going to take the power away from other people.

The metric of “more than X” in this case seems useless and sensational.

The rebuttals I always get are “I want you working on something that I can’t pay another company for”. I think it sounds good, but in the long run we always end up a budget conversations and head count limits because we spend so much money on external services and software we should just build.

Every company ever has this problem.

But now with AI. The cost of showing the company “yes we can” is so cheap. I worry for companies who have promotable replacements.

Idk how that works with journals today, but anything like this which helps me organize my thoughts should be off limits to discovery.

Some people seem to be better at it than others. I see a huge gulf in what people can do. Oddly there is a correlation between was a good engineer pre AI and can vibe code well.

But I see one odd thing. A subset of those who people would consider good or even amazing pre AI struggle. The best I can tell at this stage is because they lacked get int good results with unskilled workers in the past and just relied on their own skills to carry the project.

AI coders can do some amazing things. But at this stage you have to be careful about how you guide it down a path in the same way you did with junior engineers. I am not making a comparison to AI being junior, they by far can code better than most senior engineers, and have access to knowledge at lighting speed.

It does not happen overnight. But what happens is after they take control of the clinic or company they change the sales model to boost reoccurring revenue, this then allows the clinic or target company to take loans out. Because they look good on paper. The company then pays VC back when then pays bank back.

This can be done in about 6mo to 1 year process with some companies. The initial out of pocket expense is small and paid back very quickly.

I also forgot. Sometimes they will take the newly owned company and merge it. During that process they extract more money and load more debt onto the remaining entities, again making the VC money.

In some cases they can even get huge tax benefits by loading the company with debt which offsets the tax bill of the final entity.

When these transactions are done, within the span of a day multiple companies are created and merged and absolved.

There is little to no risk for the VC

This makes no sense. AI sex bots don’t need humans texting and role playing.

I don’t think whoever wrote this article understands what AI is.

Note the fist job of describing what was in the video seems like somebody building a AI dataset.

The VC lends (the money from the bank) which the vc borrowed, to the clinic.

They are a sort of middle man. It the clinic is on the hook to the bank and the Vc takes fist cut before playing the bank.

Eg. The vc only risked the company they were buying, and gets paid first.

I think this statement is misguided, and potentially comes from a lack of experience in getting AI coders to produce quality.

Proper engineering does not come about from the tools you use or how you use them. Proper engineering has always come from thought, and reasoning, it never was about the act of coding. It always was about the systems thinking and expressing the goals and desires that matched the requirements.

IDEs were never needed to properly engineer and in the days of AI will become increasingly less important.

Tools for planning, reviewing, and commenting on code are the future. The necessity to edit actual code is coming to an end.

The senate rejected the bill. They did not fail to do anything. The bill failed to get the approval of the senate.

But one thing we know. In the senate did not fail.

The wording here makes it seem like the senate wanted this but failed to get it.

So again the senate failing to do something the senate said they did not want to do is weird.

It comes down to some people in the senate wanted this, but they are not the senate.

Politicians have been treating a minority position as the institution’s will for some time. It’s our job to look past that and not be fooled even if you share the same minority position.

So true. To the point I have to maintain my own fork to make the command key my meta
