Ya I’m finding myself being the bad code generator at work as I’m scattered across so many things at the moment due to attrition and AI can do a lot of the boilerplate work, but it’s such a time and energy sink to fully review what it generates and I’ve found basic things I missed that others catch and shows the sloppiness. I usually take pride in my code, but I have no attachment to what’s generated and that’s exposing issues with trying to scale out using this

This is true

Yes. My take is that meta and others want this lawsuit to happen this way because they can use it as an excuse for age verification and other tracking things going on ATM too. The fine is nothing to them, but this is justification require more user identification

What you can do locally is slower and with much smaller models.

Smart. I stopped there at the end of the trip, and I figured Japan would be the least of my worries, so I was under prepared for this issue.

I was pretty confused about what to do at one point. I bought a water from a 7/11 while walking around in Tokyo and didn’t know what to do until an old lady it a subway market (also kind of wild) took it, washed it, and put it in her backpack when I gestured for the trash.

I was amazed there weren’t public trash receptacles when I was there (I was only there for a couple days though, maybe I just missed it).

Ya absolutely, I never want a fuel exhaustion event. Always put more in than necessary

I had not heard that, thank you for sharing. I just go by IFR standards or better for my personal limits, so this never came up.

I’ve never seen a rule requiring any specific fuel reserve except for when filing IFR where you need enough fuel to get to your destination, and alternate, and still have 45 minutes of fuel.

Every manager can expense what they want if they can get their manager to support it, so some offices (or more realistically, some teams in some offices) have nicer perks than others, but GREF doesn’t provide anything for free. If she was getting free food, that was her management chain doing that, not amazon as a whole (unlike say Google or meta that has free cafeterias, I’ve never seen a cafeteria in Amazon with free food).

Amazon has never been like that, Google has had more perks like that in the past, but Amazon has always been much more frugal.

Sounds like your hard drive may be dying.

His poor ears…

I feel like it’s directly contradicting what you were implying…

Devops is often figuring out why automation didn’t work.

Sure but energy use per datacenters was on a downward trend before ai, then it went the other way hard

My guess is that it’s because people are using apps to get around Google’s revenue generating mechanisms, like apps to get YouTube without ads.

That sounds like you’re still doing a lot of work. Is that net new work you wouldn’t have done before (like would you have needed to write those docs before as well)? Writing code never feels like the complicated or time expensive part to me. Figuring out what I want to do is, and I need to do that with either approach, and then thinking through how I’d like to organize things is another time sink, and perhaps that can be replaced/augmented by ai, but organizing things well requires long term thinking and is very hard to explain

What about tejava (spelling?)
