If/when Signal has complied historically, they hand over what they have…which is to say, pretty much nothing.

I’ll take Signal any day over private Facebook chat, Whatsapp, or even telegram.

My immediate response to everyone around me when that commercial aired was a loud, “fuck no” followed by a, “if any of you get one I will no longer visit”.

So burn em down

Damn

Compound it with Trump taking over the federal reserve.

My guess is that because OpenAI is the worst of the AI offerings in the industry, NVIDIA is trying to reposition themselves with other companies that are worthwhile.

OpenAI is garbage. It is the household name, but not the go-to solution (in my anecdotal experience).

OpenAI has positioned themselves well as the…Kleenex of AI (where the brand name becomes the sort of…name) but they just aren’t good.

Bricks on wheels. They leverage AWS services last spelunking showed.

lol this is hilarious. kick the bucket+++++++. this may be fun to watch.

I switched all my EVs over to GM-related products and, despite a variety of differences, some good some bad, I am overall happy and fine with the change.

Guess he’s on the list.

Oh wait, he already was.

Based on recent evidence, maybe the CCP > US Government.

I would, personally. I am not white. I am relatively well off. I still believe I am generally fucked.

I would leave last year but there are some family and job issues. However, I have two avenues to two countries and plan to exercise one of them within a year if still possible.

If I could do it today, I would.

Funny because I don’t think we’re making it to 2070+

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

Prepare for a continued (fraudulent) red wave. Arm yourselves.

Far too many people think the midterms are a panacea, they aren’t. Please please take steps to organize and protect yourselves and your community.

Definitely more helpful. But I would preface that with proper context building.

It isn’t enough (generally) to just tell it to do the thing. It is far better to to tell it to do a thing, and how, and provide rules, and provide examples, and provide the company’s best practices.

And I realize it takes a bit to get there, but I’m at a point that with enough context provisions, I can generate 10+ files of code for a net new feature that is 99%+ how I would do it in sub 5 minutes.

Do I tell Product that I still need another week? Absolutely.

Context is king.

It goes through two levels of review, we do not accept slop.

I don’t have much but happy to send you some bulk rice and beans if it helps? I realize this sounds worse than I mean, but genuinely trying to help.

Cry more. Half the problem is Copilot is anecdotally worse than just running a model locally myself. It easily ranks at or near the bottom for everything IME.

The other half is Microsoft shoving it everywhere including fucking Notepad.

I feel like you must be prompting it poorly or using ChatGPT / Copilot?

I’d say in my day to day, AI tooling successfully tackles 90% of my software engineering jobs and with proper context and promoting the output is pretty stellar.

TIL Nova still exists…
