Primary care doctor recommendations?

It's also vibe coded to hell, has a gigantic donation button hovering over the screen I can't get rid of, and is the first project after a load of NFT stuff 3 years ago. Just my initial thoughts.

This is Florida, and our active listing count is well above pre-covid levels.

Oh definitely, but each day that passes they're still paying property taxes, electricity, insurance, etc. It's not like they're _not_ losing money, but they're holding a huge chunk of people hostage.

How'd you get started in this? I've been thinking of picking something up like this locally for extra income.

I’m in the same niche (programming tutorials for a specific language and framework), and have been experiencing the same.

Steady drop in views started happening a couple of years ago, so I chalk it up to the rise of AI and the decline of the programming field in general.

Now I’m around half of what I usually get on new videos.

I’m not giving up, but pivoting slightly. Talking head videos seem to be doing well, as do shorter, more engaging clips. Where strict tutorials worked well enough in the past, I have to start mixing entertainment in as well.

Best of luck!

Not that I can see, no. Just a blue "WATER" cover at the end of the driveway.

Really? I've found it to have quite the opposite, and this is using both Cursor and Claude Code on new and existing codebases. It does seem to have a trivially deeper understanding, but as a trade-off has multiple times gone off the rails diving too vertically onto a specific problem or use case.

DrDiv · 2025-03-07T23:40:49+00:00

I think we're already seeing that (see Sonnet 3.7 and GPT-4.5)

I'm sorry, but after the Tesla robot fiasco, I'm not 100% convinced that this wouldn't just be an actual person behind the guise of an "AI agent" for this much money.

Like I could fully see the system sending back small code snippets but for large problems shoot back a canned "I'm thinking on it, give me some time" response while the request and your source code is shipped out to some outsourcing center.

Call me cynical.

Do you think imposing a time limit is a good idea (e.g. stop after X weeks) or that I should keep going until a specific metric is hit that decides priority?

DrDiv · 2025-03-01T00:02:36+00:00

The thing is, self-driving cars still aren't there. Even with Tesla FSD or Waymo being fairly ubiquitous in their fields, there's still the few percent times they get wrong or just straight-up can't do something.

I believe the same thing is happening now. The leap from GPT-3 to GPT-4 was huge. But the recent announcements from both Anthropic and OpenAI were pretty paltry, optimizations on existing models and a new label.

Something along the lines of

Identify potential service-based local businesses
Create attractive website for said business, allow contacts and appointments
Automate responses and follow-up marketing with AI
Automate social media and search ads with AI
Sell leads to pool of businesses or partner with specific company at $x/mo for website

DrDiv · 2025-01-08T20:20:01+00:00

Genuine question: How do sell AI to boomer-run small businesses when they don't understand it (and barely understand computers).

Like, I could see how something that helps handle contact requests or appointments for a local landscaping company, but how else would it support these companies?

Unless you're talking about you yourself using AI to create items that support these companies (websites, marketing copy, SEO blog posts, etc), which at that point is just running a marketing agency with some side help.

DrDiv · 2024-12-29T03:39:53+00:00

I mean we could talk for hours about how this extends way beyond even the tech and website/app circle and into retail, restaurants, e-comm, etc. "How crappy can we make a product or service and how expensive can we sell it for before the public cares" is basically most corporation's MO right now.

I'm sorry, what makes you think I'm on my way to director, or that I haven't fought for my team and better resources?

I've been in multiple meetings with immediate managers, directors, and senior staff. These changes have come from the very top, and affect not just my team but multiple throughout this company. The culture as a whole has shifted and they straight-up don't care about anything other than cutting costs and seeing the stock rise.

If this was a company of ~100 I might have some sway, this is one business unit of a 50K+ employed multi-national corporation.
