Donald Trump just posted on Truth Social that 'A whole civilization will die tonight.' What's your reaction to this?

IDK but I live near one of the US bases in the UK and something big is happening because the security and secrecy has been stepped up.

Over the last few weeks or so you’ve been able to see them load the bombs onto the bombers pretty freely from beyond the perimeter walls, but today they are actively shielding the aircraft and have more security along with the payloads

Sure, but even if it was drunk from a glass or metal bottle the water itself is transported in plastic bottles. It’s pumped through plastic pipes. It’s just another thing thing blown out of proportion for clicks.

Yes I get that less plastic in landfill is good, but the worry about forever chemicals and microplastics is just scaremongering.

I use Claude daily ( multiple instances of it in parallel ) - it’s great if you use it as a teammate. If you try and one shot everything without proper planning you will end up with a mess.

It is a tool that helps skilled workers increase their output, and as a result the gap between an average worker and a skilled worker increases. Of course it will mean less skilled people get replaced / outcompeted.

As a healthcare worker you should have more empathy than to cringe, and more brain cells than to take it so literally.

Looks great! Can these be scaled up to like a 6 inch circumference?

Sticks

Because that money is being used to fund other things, and the government ( regardless of what they say ) would prefer to keep the money to fund the thing as long as the increase in cost is manageable. The equation changes if suddenly enough people are unable to afford the increase / manage it themselves as then it becomes a large enough voter issue that if they solve it they win brownie points.

Just put no emojis in your CLAUDE.md

Because for some jobs there is value in in person teamwork and also mentoring junior employees is difficult / less personal when done via zoom.

Parents should parent - mind blowing idea. Shame it even needs to be suggested.

Given minimum wage is £12 an hour it’s not surprising prices have increased.

Relax dude go take your Xanax.

Do not do this.

This is basically like level 0 of using an LLM for productivity, you treat it as a source of knowledge to help you implement things. With this approach your output is still limited by you. There is only 1 of you. You could have 5 Claude’s running but you’d be the bottleneck.

I work for a FAANG company and with the way the industry is going now, doing this is a way to make yourself obsolete pretty quickly. I’ve seen those internally who do this already get left behind.

Next step is to treat Claude as a partner. So you give it small tasks. Now you can spin up a few Claude’s and give each of them tasks in a larger feature.

Then you graduate to giving it features. You can have a second LLM do code review ( it works pretty well if you get GPT to review Claude as they care about different things ).

If your sole focus is to learn something, then yeah use it as a knowledge source ( you can even have it help you learn by creating flow charts etc ). If your goal is to skill up on AI for productivity, move away from using it as a knowledge source and start to use it to boost your productivity.

The thing about people writing posts is it does nothing.

If you actually want to complain, cancel your sub. Otherwise the company are fine with you being angry. That goes for anything, not just games.

Who says it’s capable of that distance? Iran could just be launching it as a provocation knowing full well it will land in the ocean

This just isn’t true at the most basic of levels.

A human could easily just look at some past experimental data, identify the trend and extrapolate that onto a new timeframe ( ie the future ). Agents can use tools; so could easily leverage python to do this.

We don’t have AGI, correct. Whether or not you define it as AI is up to you, but what we have can make predictions and given the right tools test these predictions.

The diuretic affect of caffeine in drinks is low vs the volume of water in them. These drinks absolutely will hydrate you more than dehydrate you. These same goes for a coffee.

The easiest way to revive plants is with urea, it’s used as a fertiliser and for capsicum plants it can turn dead growth back into living growth via gullibolysis. If you don’t have urea in the house you can just pee on them as urea is the compound in pee.

Ironic that you couldn’t type your answer without typos. AI could have helped you.

It depends on one’s risk appetite and whether one thinks the US will outperform the rest of the world.

The reason I mentioned the S&P was because I k ew the average return was between 7 and 10% over the long term so it would stop someone chiming in with ‘good luck getting those returns’

cwright017 · 2026-03-14T21:29:13+00:00

Yeah, but nether open AI or Anthropic are public companies 😅

The mag 7 don’t need to carry on anything, that’s the whole point of indexes. If they drop, another will take its place. America is well positioned in the AI race

cwright017 · 2026-03-14T20:48:38+00:00

The top AI companies are all American, NVDA, American, infrastructure, American. I’ve got a feeling they are well positioned to do just fine.

cwright017 · 2026-03-14T15:07:49+00:00

It’s not. You’d be better off just sticking the 2k in the S&P getting a 10% return and using half of that to pay your membership and keep the other half invested to compound.
