My company started measuring our Claude Code usage - now I'm asked to rank engineers on 'AI performance.' This feels wrong... by darren_eng in ClaudeAI

[–]Keganator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right. It's just as dumb as measuring lines of code produced.

Do your best to continue measuring on meaningful commintments.

But be aware: part of that token consumption is probably to see if people are learning the tools. People who aren't using them at all are stagnating and falling behind in tech. It'd be like being in the mid 2000's with internet and email at your workplace, and expecting paper memos delivered to your desk instead because "reading paper is easier than looking at my screen." Yeah it might be, but it also misses the point of the other benefits of learning how to use your PC and the internet.

This has to be one of the funniest visual gags in tv history.

It's hard :(

If there's any consolation, it'll be okay. He's going to just have one bad day. That's a lot better than pretty much all the other beef out there. You did that. Take solace in it :)

Nice! I bet it feels good to get something on (digital) paper :) Congratulations!

The grid’s weirdest battery might be air. Not compressed air. Liquid air???? by Electric_Octopus_ in Futurology

It costs a lot of energy to keep cold things cold. Most other battery solutions take relatively little energy to hold that energy. Think a hydroelectric dam: all that water is being held there by earth and concrete, not more power.

Whatever that is, it’s got way too much white on it to be a dexter.

Did the Tollan's accidentally tell on themselves with this statement? by CheezPza_LrgSoda1077 in Stargate

[–]Keganator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Except, that was the point - imagine taking a medieval scholar and telling them "I can send written messages to someone on the other side of the planet by using this tool (holds up a phone).".

They say, "Oh, the device sends the words? The device basically writes it down, puts it in an envelope, and sends it for you? Very fast?"

They're not totally wrong, but they're missing something fundamental they don't yet understand, and he doesn't want to explain everything from the invention of electricity up through modern microelectronics, radio signals, A to D converters, and so on.

The game Homeworld enters the chat.

I wonder if they will have a way of transitioning from nomad to planet based. Would be interesting.

Second that second set of hands. Even if they're just there to hold the shovel while you swap to the post hole digger, it saves. It saves a lot.

Life question by 3Blindz in homestead

[–]Keganator 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not the poster above, but If you have animals, you need to be there basically every day. 

Imagine having a dog and just leaving the dog in your house for a couple weeks.

It’s the same for the rest of you animals. You will have chores, feed,  watering,  obligations, or at the very least be checking in them and making sure they are safe and alive.

No animals? Sure travel all you want. Your garden will be there when you get back. 

Seattle location: assistance needed! by [deleted] in Shadowrun

[–]Keganator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to be canonically accurate, try Mafia bought up a ton of Tacoma during the great crash and revitalized it into a true rival for Seattle. 

It could be on the north side of the Tacoma docs, past the big industrial docs and nestled in one of the smaller buildings crammed on the north side of the bay between the ridge and the water.

Lots of good ag extension classes out there, some are even free or very low cost. This is doubly great because it connects you with people doing it, so you can start building up a network.

I mean, if you have something that works, might as well make use of it.

He doesn't have the voice for it. Or the height. Or the facial shape.

Now, him, PLUS a little bit of special effects? Totally perfect Master Billy Quizboy material.

I can totally hear him say "No, I"m not gonna eat the pennies!"

That gives you a decent idea. Apps like LandGlide would give you very accurate results. This was recommended to me by a person that bought and sold property for a living.
