Indians are victims, and in order to protect them we must deny them the ability to move and work?

What's wrong with Indians? Why do so many people here want us to hate on Indians?

A post that lives rent-free in my head points out that a kid who is addicted to chatgpt is going to be more literate - and therefore likely better educated - than a kid who is addicted to tiktok

In Australia, the cheapest BYD EV is cheaper than the cheapest Toyota.

Fun fact: Australia's most popular vehicle has always been utes (aka pickup trucks)

Last year it was the Ford Ranger.

How big of a bubble do you have to be in to be thinking "I like cleaning" is the majority position among normal people?

Nothing stopping you from doing that in a post-LLM world

"Annualized revenue" is a projection, and is known to be a projection.

LLMs did not invent clickbaity headlines. Kinda odd that people think it did

Sorry yeah, I meant to say LLMs have no concept of time, so time estimates they give are almost always hallucinations

LLMs have no conception of time, unless you explicitly feed in timestamps to the context

I thought they'd be good at vectorising raster image, but no.

Drawing vector graphics.

Image generators can make reasonable-looking raster images. LLMs are good at coding. But drawing SVGs sits at the worst of both worlds.

The big tip I have for you is to understand wake windows. Babies can get too tired to sleep(!) so you need to make sure to put them to sleep roughly 1-1.5 hours after they last wake up.

Highly recommend getting a sleep tracker app.

The truly hard part is putting them to sleep

I use cloth diapers, but modern disposable diapers can hold a lot, a lot of pee. Significantly more than any cloth diapers can. This means a lot less blowouts with disposables.
