If you are complaining about prices in a tweet, your second sentence must be a call to raise corp and individual taxes and/or cut SS + the deficit. Otherwise your complaints cannot be taken seriously.
FWIW snap & medicaid recipients aren't the problem.

Sometimes I wonder if an analogy for LLMs would be if low-cost fusion + infinite battery storage were discovered. Re-shape industrial profit margins and destroy entire fossil fuel industry. But if it cost very little to run, no immediate explosion of profits elsewhere.

As a man who hasn't cheated, I have particular disdain for men who do. Of course, some of these men are friends, close even.
But really...be a man. Divorce your wife. Pay the price. Then have your fun.

It's hard for me to not see parallels to dotcom and the years afterwards. Fed hiking into a slowing cap-ex growth environment. Tech that causes eventual wage compression in specific sector (early 2000s was china manufacturing shock), leading to a tough decade 3-4 years from now.
As I vibecode five different apps for my kids without really understanding what an API actually is, I wonder -- is this me? Just a server who can't break a 20 into change? Does it matter?
It's not normal nowadays.
Maybe older people are dumber than ever, but the shit you are used to, ain't what other people are used to.
I've worked in places where we were explicitly told NOT to break down change for the customer.
What you want is a bank, we are not that. Run along

Ancient Macbook Air works fine, but running out of memory when I run start basic LLM tasks.
Hmm...maybe I should buy memory stocks.

Every time I go back to do a little vibecoding, I am just blown away with how capable these things are. I am so hopeful that one day these capabilities come to the physical world, but I fear I will not live to see it (42).

In the annals of LLM weirdness, chatGPT is obsessed with giving normal breastfed infants 4mo+ iron supplementation drops of 1mg/kg/day because of AAP/CDC guidelines. Had to point out that top EU regulations dont't agree with it, and only then it relented.

Yup. What's the point of having a legislative branch if it doesn't restrain the power of the executive.

Am a bit surprised that the market is selling off...wasn't this the expected outcome? Maybe Abbott losing wasn't expected. Anyway guess we will see how much dry powder everyone has left.

All I will say about election markets is that it's standard for people to play "odds are wrong" but I am going to exit before resolution in bond/equity markets. Which can mess with things...before resolution.

The end of the attention economy if we are lucky.
It seems like the next version of work/life management is just to operate from one screen. I am getting close to it. Ideally I am not going into apps, all their capabilities are done from once place.
Everything is pushed to you, you are not longer pulling.
