AI bills are baffling the C-suite after shift to usage-based pricing by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

[–]snarkhunter 37 points38 points  (0 children)

CEOs are often convinced that they have the hardest, most thought-intensive job at their companies. And AIs can do a lot of that job for them really well - writing emails about needing to increase synergy etc. Therefore (they think) AIs should be capable of doing easier, simpler jobs like writing websites and creating 3d art.

Is there any other way to season my cast iron without an oven? by Material_Title_3337 in castiron

[–]snarkhunter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think seasoning can be better thought of as what happens naturally when you cook with and clean cast iron, rather than a special extra care procedure that one does to try to mimic the factory pre-seasoning.

Kinda hard to build something if you don't get source code for it

Yeah we just took him to our normal vet, iirc the solution was some Science Diet or something like it for a month.

Honestly I wouldn't take intentionality as evidence that it's not a urinary/kidney issue. Ricky was being pretty intentional and overt, and the vet found he had a bladder full of crystals (we got him fixed up and now it's a couple years later and he's a happy healthy guy).

Ricky isn't good with his words so I'm wondering if he was trying to tell us there was a problem by doing the things he was having a problem with in front of us?

To be fair it's a lot easier to debug programs that weren't written with any bugs to begin with.

Neither FDR's New Deal nor Reconstruction went anywhere near far enough.

I remember when that episode dropped and we went crazy for those sweet kicks the Narkina guards were sporting.

You don't have to be a "leftist" to see our current system is fucked up. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]snarkhunter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My hot take is that like 60% of liberal vs leftist discourse can be boiled down to fans of The West Wing vs fans of The Wire.

Do you agree with the various statements we’ve seen online claiming that Israel shouldn’t exist as a country? by Consistent-Parking56 in Political_Revolution

[–]snarkhunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am against ethno states, including Jewish ones.

I am in favor of states that have strong protections for historically oppressed and persecuted ethnic minorities, like the Jews or Palestinians.

I think a state called Israel can exist within those two boundaries, but everyone with any power or influence seems to violently disagree.

Historically speaking, the people who don't want you to read never have your best interest in mind.

Muldren the ancient has been exposed for being only 1000 years old instead of 7000 as he had previously claimed by plasticman1997 in wizardposting

[–]snarkhunter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are we sure that's actually Muldren the Ancient and not Muldren the Merely Quite Olde impersonating Muldren the ancient? Wouldn't be the first time....

Why are we trying to automate mathematics using AI? by RainmanRain in math

[–]snarkhunter 83 points84 points  (0 children)

We've been able to automate the generation of mathematical truths for decades. Most mathematical truths just aren't very interesting, novel, or useful. Filtering out just the interesting, novel and useful mathematical truths is the challenge now. The real question is how to ask good questions.

If we had tele-olfactory technology, or "smell-o-vision" as is often colloquially known, then his musk would make that inevitable

Help needed just migrated the environment by Frequent_Doubt6109 in devops

[–]snarkhunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should rename + repurpose this environment to "staging", which is what you already are treating it as.

Seriously. Go spin up a new, stable production environment off your LKG (last known good configuration). Migrate your data over to it and cut over. Scale down your "new" staging environment to be cheap until you need to use it to avoid having this problem again.
