  • It’s doing a shit job at replacing people, it’s still too prone to hallucinating for the vast majority of its applications.

    In many of the applications where AI has replaced people the promised performance gains never materialized because of the insane amount of babysitting a LLM agent requires.

    Doesn’t matter if it can write 10 hours of code in 5 minutes if you still need a software dev to troubleshoot the output for 25 hours.

    They have like 90% reliability (figure pulled directly from my ass) but they need 99.99% reliability to actually be effectively reliable.

    They’ve burned through all their hype and still haven’t made it reliable yet. I think they’re not going to get it done before the bubble collapses.

    It’ll be similar to the dotcom boom, infinite hype implosion collapses the market to a few core players and then those core players will get there over the next 15 years.

    Isn’t going to disappear but it’s absolutely going to fade into the background of day to day life.


  • Because Republicans don’t infight anywhere near as much a Democrats.

    I’m pretty convinced that trump has gotten as far as he has because the Democrats parts is like 50/50 corporate shills on Trump’s payroll and ideologues.

    Of course we never get anything done. Half the party is hellbent on selling out their constituents and the other on performative “moral victories.”





  • Yeah that’s definitely the good ending. My school did so poorly they changed the grading curriculum to be 50% homework based so I was cooked on that.

    I did well on the tests but they made tests 15% and quizzes 12%. I don’t remember the rest of the breakdown but it was absolute bullshit.

    They did it because the year above me had a 50% non graduation rate and my year had a 53% non grad rate.

    The only reason the school didn’t get shut down is because it managed 47% the year after me and apparently the deal was 3 consecutive years of over 50% failure = shutdown.





  • I agree 100%

    I absolutely hated school until I got to college and took a C++ class. Suddenly I was having a blast because I could see purpose in what I was doing.

    The reality of it is some people are good little drones who can work on pointless tasks because they were told to and people who aren’t and need to see why they’re doing what they’re doing.

    Imo the gifted programs didn’t reward people because they were smart but because they were obedient.










  • If you want to ever move up in your career that’ll have to change because engineering advancement inherently means becoming management.

    The unfortunate reality is that we live in a collaborative world and if you can’t collaborate then you will not go far.

    It doesn’t matter if you’re the smartest person in the world if you’re also the most easily ignored.

    One person can only do so much especially when they’re competing with people who aren’t alone.
