    Ozempic has been FDA approved since 2017 FWIW. I know it seems like a new drug because its newer part of the cultural zeitgeist but its been around and in use by diabetics for a while.

    Every company uses AI. What I am referring to is companies then turning around and selling their products/services as AI simply because their employees leverage AI to do their normal tasks.

    Cybersecurity professionals having that hard a time is more telling than us "regular" devs. There are a lot more rules and regulations that prevent foreigners from having access to lots of different types of data and systems. Everything is fucked. Can't wait for the next jobs report to make it...

    You are taking an unofficial version of the drug from a drug compounder, she is taking the official version from Eli Lilly. What you are doing COULD be dangerous because you don't quite know exactly what they are doing. That being said lots of people are doing what you are doing precisely...

    INOD ripping up again today. I'm guessing we will continue seeing this in the AI space until OpenAI and Anthropic have their IPO's later this year, money funnels into those, and the momentum either continues for another year or two, or the private/spv money hits the eject button for immediate...

    There is a massive difference between completing a single t15/t16 and completing the entire atlas. I am not the one wrong here. There are 100+ maps in the atlas and 130+ points on the tree. Even I almost never complete the atlas despite farming multiple hundreds of divs for builds and sometimes...

    A LOT more people complete these things in PoE1, because the Atlas and mapping systems are actually interesting and fun to engage with. Unlike PoE2

    Its interesting that keto is still so misunderstood. Seems like people still confuse proper ketogenic regimens with things like the Carnivore diet. You eat carbs on ketogenic diets. You just adjust exactly how much based on your activity levels so you burn through the glycogen and remain in...

    AI isn't "in the cloud". A "copilot pc" is still connected to the internet. This all seems like marketing and branding shenanigans.

    AWS isn't AI though, and that's where the biggest disconnect is for many people who think AI is driving record profits. Also.... local AI? AI hardware?

    Innodata is killing it for me today. I bought 2k shares last night before close at ~$46 because it looked like they were going to have strong earnings. They killed earnings.

    There are very few companies "dipping their toes" in actual AI. What you're hearing, is companies lying about being AI companies and using nebulous terminology to package old fashioned software and services as "AI". The industry is full of snake oil.

    Token usage isn't going to be a big deal. It's going to be the ENTIRE deal. Claude cowork isn't bad with token usage. Claude Code is an atrocity with token usage.

    AI is making companies, and especially executives and boards, value experience less and less. They legitimately believe experience is superfluous in a world full of AI.

    I watched Grimm then went to start Supernatural based on recommendations. I liked Grimm, couldn't get through the first season of Supernatural. It was just too "try hard" while also being goofy.

    I kind of liked ToTA as an alternate gameplay mode for that league. I have a feeling they are going to remove all the chill/good parts of it, and ramp up the "This fucking sucks" parts of it as is PoE2 tradition at this point

    Haha, no surprise you can't figure out you should be showering every day (more than once if you're not a complete lard ass and actually exercise) and should be an interesting enough person that you don't spend all your time stinking up the place playing MTG or Warhammer.

    Guy stays single for a year, which is a long time, and he gets grief about "rushing back in". I suspect you guys spend more time at your local hobby shop than you do in the shower.

    Don't get me started on berries. They've always been obscenely expensive. Especially when you compare cost to calories. I think theyre the worst item in the entire store in that regard.
