Can confirm. It was the coldest wettest summer I ever experienced.

The hive in my garden haven’t produced enough to sustain themselves and had to be fed. We had no spring honey at all, and summer production is bleak, our beekeeper told us he was probably not even going to bother harvesting it. The bees still need to make it through winter.

The idea is that there is untold trillions worth of existing infrastructure and tools that are designed to be operated by humanoids, so the hope is that by designing it close to a human form it will be able to perform task in an environment designed for human without having to design a different robot for each task.

Basically the idea is to create a robot that is good enough at doing a lot of things instead of one that is super efficient at one thing like the ones we use in industry right now.

There are a lot of use cases, but they all assume the robots reach a certain level of precision, speed and adaptability, which we are still far from.

Because I am one.

Yes dear, but if you take 2 minutes to understand how the threaded comment system works you will realize I was not talking about the article but replying to a specific comment who mentionned the age of “18” as some kind of cutoff date.

People who use age as a measure of intelligence are the proof that is doesn’t work. ;)

if it can melt my phone last longer

It probably do that when it spontaneously combust in your pocket.

Done and done.

I really feel like I fell in a time machine and I’m reading and article from 2018 since digital price tags have been the norm in my country for years.

Just throw an arri LPL mount on the pixel 10, so I can mount my 45-132 T2.8 lens on it and call it a bump.

Ah the famous nodevbymephobic coder. :)

If that a ref to the French government of Vichy that collaborated with the Nazi regime and actively participated in it’s genocidal project or something else I don’t get ?

So he’s left with a bunch of copy-paster ?

Russia is doing a resupply run this week.

Like Miles Davis… (1.69m give or take a trumpet)

I used it to generate documents required by auditors for various ISO certification that few people read in full but still need to be correct in case the auditor decides to do more than skim it.

Got some documents out in a couple of hours per doc instead of days, including a glossary made by feeding it back the finished document and telling it to make a glossary. I probably did in 3 days what would have taken me a month otherwise.

Honestly it can be quite useful right now. The mistake is thinking it can do everything.

Probably the fact that you will need to keep the old name alive to reference it in older litterature anyway. So old name will still be there forever and makes the name change a bit moot.

Maybe they are worried it adds cognitive complexity.

They may think it will be very difficult to enforce the usage worldwide. Some people won’t care and keep using the old name.

They could be afraid, it opens the field to constant renaming because the meaning and the disposition toward word changes all the time.

They might be worried they’ll have to waste time constantly arguing over name change and in fine decide who has the right to be offended by what. Maybe some of them would rather be doing their research instead.

Maybe they don’t give a fuck if it offends someone.

APIs that don’t exist

I had that. I got a bunch of ok code for an AWS API, but then it decided to hallucinate a method. I tried all kind of prompt to instruct it that the method didn’t exist and not to use it, but it always came back telling me it was the right way to do it.

Anyway, still faster than reading the doc for a one off script I just wanted thrown together quickly and never to be reused again.

Any somewhat touristic city that didn’t implement some drastic restrictions has been fucked. In those places you can make from 2 to 10 time as much with airbnb as you can with a normal tenant so it becomes the obvious choice for a property owners. the only way to fix supply is regulation.
