(Speaking to one one in this thread in particular, but to big truck drivers in general). Driving a big truck around when you don't actually need one is like playing loud rap music in public. In that situation you know you're pissing everyone off, and if we're being honest, thats a big part of...

They may, but can they? Those videos are great. I'm impressed with how far AI music has come. I remember when people were showing bullshit techno AI had made, as if a robot making beep boop sounds was impressive. Now that its doing actual music - fuckin awesome.

Some of those are a reach. Frito pies a real thing, and tasty. So's ambrosia salad - I mean its white trash but its tasty. But salt and straw ice cream? Been in OR like 14 years and never heard of it.

well that certainly changes the calculation. I'm getting a hell of a lot done on just a little $20/m account. At that scale economizing on model choice seems to help. The latest model always seems to burn token crazy fast and rarely is the task big enough to justify it.

people who don't want to burn asstons of tokens on mundane tasks

Most video content is worthless but for some reason almost every AI video is hilarious. WTF is up with twitter videos though? Why is there no CC option? That should be default on in all video, here I can't even find how to turn it on

Holy shit please yes.

2 ep in. Still great. This guy remembers what so many modern TV writers have forgotten: how to make likeable characters.

What? Kill the lawyer, then dismember the lawyer, then burn the lawyers body. I forgot the rest of the steps but I stand by this answer

This is surprisingly good so far (disclaimer: only watched ep 1) One of my favorite parts is that the dad and mom almost entirely come across as rational people who share many of my views, instead of some cartoonish evil.

Huh? He distinctly said "axe" twice in a row. I was really hoping Hal would use it to make fun of him but of course the ghetto chick writers couldnt let that happen.

I guess we're seeing the same tradeoff and valuing it differently. Neither of us will learn the language. 5 years ago we would have. I see that as a meaningful loss. I concede that there are still some parts we need to understand, but its so much less. There is so much less learning now. And...

There is a website I visit sometimes that sells clear plastic bags. Thats all they sell, and all I buy from them. There is no health info, no financial info, all there is is a record of the plastic bags I've bought from them. They require secure passwords with lots of rules and wanted me to...

And you're not going to learn those languages or tools now. Or experience the pleasure when it clicks, when you get it, and then suddenly start doing something easily that was prohibitively difficult a moment ago. When you could easily explain it in simple language to a friend or coworker...

Exactly. At least half of the time when I'm prompted enter some motherfucking password with special rules, followed by some assbackwards mark of the beast 2FA - its a case where I literally don't give a fuck about security. Like I would be 100% OK with just remove the password and let me log in...
