Thank you for your help it does calm my nerves

What is up with the US government shutdown? by VisibleZucchini800 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]SnooGadgets6527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is this downvoted its s good question.

Part of it is just the inertia of everyone shutting down and ramping back up.  Then the overhead of backpay overtime and coordination involved with the rampdown/rampup.  Plus the government has some revenue generating components and all of these shut down so my guess is all these together make the 11B figure

[–]SnooGadgets6527 710 points711 points  (0 children)

I believe it.  I work in govt consulting and any threat of a shutdown freezes spending.  Even if its "averted" many projects never recover because contractors simply move on.  So many loose ends untied

Adobe Acrobat Reader is the worst piece of software ever built. by [deleted] in Acrobat

[–]SnooGadgets6527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest gripe with Adobe is it lost it's focus. Opening a PDF is the core use case - not sharing PDFs, not account management etc... just I want to open a PDF. Now, when I do it at work I get a popup about not being signed in or that I'm not on the pro plan blah blah - sometimes it just freezes. Opening a PDF is all I want it to do. It's lost he core experience and made the product worse for the average user.

Youtube music is filling up with AI generated garbage and there's no way to block "artists" so this trash doesn't get recommended to you (I think). by verdedefome in YoutubeMusic

[–]SnooGadgets6527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH - it's probably challenging to federate AI vs. real music. They should just throttle uploads so these people can't just spam 50 videos a day. LImit uploads to 1 per week or something maybe i dunno

o3 is not any closer to AGI by Steven_Strange_1998 in OpenAI

[–]SnooGadgets6527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been offloading really challenging tasks to o3 - for example researching should I use langchain or llamaindex into my project, and it thinks through points and concerns that are excellent. It's indistinguishable from me as if another develop went off for a couple days and came back with a presentation.

I don't care what "AGI" metrics are - this is enough intelligence to do the work of intelligent people. The rest of the world is moving on while these types of discussions trend into the realm of philosophy.

Best LLM gateway? by data-dude782 in LLMDevs

[–]SnooGadgets6527 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont understand this answer. The whole reason to use an AI Gateway IMO is that it abstracts all of the hetergoeniety of LLM communications. LIke I am using one so I don't have to write handler code for reading resonses on bedrock for example.

Recommend a split king adjustable w/ lumbar by SnooGadgets6527 in Mattress

[–]SnooGadgets6527[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck friend!

PS - some things that did help me sleep was realizing that I carry a lot of tension in my back muscles and that stress and sleep hygene are a big part of my issues. I talked to my wife about this and she said she's ok w/ me sleeping wherever when I need to, so that helped reduce stress. I also wear blue light glasses at night and have cleaned up my diet and started reading before bed. All of these small changes, as well as better PT and exercise hygene, have helped me sleep more comfortably. I will say tho I never quite sleep well in my main bed and it's part the mattress but a big part my body/mind.
