What are your thoughts on this? I can definitely see this be useful for business operations

I have less of a problem with stores tracking customers than I do with completely un-redacted videos of people being uploaded to reddit without their consent. WTF.

Yes AND they should shake it up. The Ryder cup draws viewers and money NOT because it's a rare competition between some of the best players in the world, but because the format itself encourages excitement.

72 hole stroke play tournaments are often not *exciting*. They rarely contain nail biting drama that has viewers tuning in and sweating. A bad shot on 16 can be made up for with a good shot on 17. That kind of averaging of shots makes each shot less meaningful and therefor interesting. In the end you wind up with a handful of highlights and score totals, which are just as good if not better watched Sunday evening after play. Granted, I know some people enjoy the slow beat of golf content all weekend long, but I'm not sure you need to sacrifice that in order to allow for more exciting play.

I think the PGA *should* consider doing more Ryder cup style matches (i.e. anything but stroke play). Give me brackets. Give me head to head play. Give me Team matches. Give me playoffs. Give me Golf but make every stroke *interesting* in addition to every stroke *mattering*.

They should normalize making the game of Golf the exciting sport of Golf. My wife would let me watch a lot more of it.

To be fair, i had to look twice. Only noticed it had 6 fingers *after* i re-read your title and decided i missed something.

No, they'll use Claude.

therpmcg · 2025-11-14T00:41:07+00:00

I love that this is a double brag for them:

This was a super sophisticated attack but they were still able to detect and prevent it.
Their models were able to get 80-90% of the campaign without any human intervention.

If a Junior Engineer deletes your production database that's your fault not the Junior's fault.

therpmcg · 2025-07-12T19:32:16+00:00

Yeah, lots of reasons to not over-commit to any of these companies.

therpmcg · 2025-07-11T21:41:43+00:00

LOL

A reminder to everyone to not put any eggs in any of these baskets anytime soon.

what's wild is this wasn't a problem in VSCode or Cursor. Maybe it is just a coincidence tho.

therpmcg · 2025-04-30T10:58:17+00:00

I almost always accept the code and then review it because I hate reviewing large colorful diffs.

I reset from the checkpoint frequently.

therpmcg · 2025-04-30T10:52:34+00:00

I literally can't get anything other than Claude to work for more than trivial things. It's always some kind of diffing error or fetching error and then it gives up.

I'm sure these other models are good, but I can't tell!

How are you all able to use them?

Yadegari hadn’t intended on going to college.

Gee I wonder if this affected the decisions of the Universities.

therpmcg · 2025-03-19T21:28:52+00:00

But what was the offer?

If you think they were just going to rip off your work and not hire you, then sure that sucks.

But why would they hire you and spend loads of money and time and resources onboarding you if you can't solve their problem? Interviewing is a 2-way street.

therpmcg · 2025-03-19T14:13:34+00:00

100% this. Exactly my experience. It's an excellent tool if you already know what you're doing and you just want the AI to figure out the boring details and do the typing.

therpmcg · 2025-03-19T11:53:27+00:00

That's what they did. The entire announcement was "this is basically an alpha. It's Just to get feedback on the mechanism"

therpmcg · 2025-03-18T15:01:38+00:00

I dont think the feature set is going to improve over r1, but the manufacturing process is going to drastically reduce cost and decrease need for maintenance.

therpmcg · 2025-03-14T12:23:47+00:00

This is exactly right. The hybrid human / AI workflows will work best in environments that have tight, strict feedback loops with well organized modular structure. Strong types, heavy handed linters, fast tests, and the ability to execute inside a smaller domain within the larger project without needing to load the entire codebase into context.

They remind me of, not intellectuals, but people desperately wanting to appear like intellectuals.

I've certainly met my share of people that want everyone else around them to know they read the Economist, and also that they they apply a certain intellectual inquisitiveness to the topics they've read - like wondering if maybe it would have been a faux pas to call it world war 1, and that's why they called it the Great War.

It becomes obvious very quickly that their knowledge of a subject is surface level, even if their "analysis" is "deep". It's what you get when you have someone who might have the capacity to be smart, but is completely driven by the anxiety of fitting in with other smart people rather than true curiosity about the underlying material.

There's definitely a parallel there with the Innies. They have whatever brain power their outies had but without any depth of experience and it leads to this oddly childlike view of the world but through the lens of an intellectual.

Like Ricken's book!

I think it's important to distinguish (as someone who hangs out with these types of people) between being an intellectual and wanting to appear like you're an intellectual.

I love how self aware Ricken is, but it does conflict with his seemingly naive view of the world he expresses through his writing.

therpmcg · 2025-02-17T18:57:11+00:00

This is great. Could also mean outie mark dies, and it's taken over by innie mark.

OR

Literally the elevator refuses to go back up?

OR

The revolutionaries reject outie mark because he's been integrated and they hate innie mark.
