For coding tasks I treat A.I. as a fresh intern that doesn’t really know what they’re doing but you can just ask them to do that horribly tedious task and just do a code review later. As you said, something like “rewrite this in Rust”, or “create unit tests for this function”. Then you fix all it’s mistakes. I’d never let it touch an actual algorithm or anything important though.
You go back to where your consciousness comes from. Everyone has their own idea of what that means, but I don’t think anyone is 100% correct.
Actually, personality I believe that everyone is correct. You can go chill in heaven for a while, do whatever you want, maybe come back to Earth again after a breather.
You know that feeling when you’re playing a really intense game or watching a movie, and then it ends? And you just sit there like, damn. That was epic. Then you talk about it with your friends and family, maybe eat lunch, just hang out for a while before deciding what to do next? The comfortable zone after an exciting event but before boredom sets in. Maybe that movie was peak for you and you’re done forever, maybe not.
Imagine the sound of throwing another dry log on that pile

I’ve never been to the UK, I’ve only heard it’s similar to the situation in AU second hand from people who have actually lived there.
For example when I needed to see a psychiatrist it took 18 months, a rheumatologist took 24 months, and general medicine physician took 20 months. My ex’s psychiatrist took 12 and psychologist took 6, only because it was a critical emergency. I’m glad you had a good experience though
I would probably do it for 6 month’s income as a lump sum to fix that 1 thing. I wouldn’t go back on payroll that’s for sure

It’s been joked that Australia is half socialist, and I kind of agree with it. Never been to the UK so I can’t say much about that.
Of course, but if more socialist countries struggle to justify increasing the funding of the already massive cost of healthcare, I doubt that the states would manage a well funded one. In fact it may even be sabotaged. But theoretically if it had good funding then yes most of those problems go away.
It does feel like a cult doesn’t it? Like the church of the steel God or something. Silicon valley practically performing summoning rituals on their PC’s to try and create sentience ASAP
I think initially there’d be a huge spike of people going to the doctor for problems they’ve just been living with because they can’t get it looked at. The healthcare system would get hugely overwhelmed because I’m sure they wouldn’t prepare properly for this.
Long term, wait times would be months to years like in the UK. The system would likely never catch up. You’d probably end up with a private expensive sector due to the huge demand* to “skip the queue”, and a public sector if you’re willing to wait 2 years. Oh look, it’s turned into Australia’s system.
We don’t really need speculation at this point because we already know what the pros and cons are. There would be huge economic and health benefits from health problems being prevented rather than letting them get bad. But people would go to hospital for a common cold and scraped knee or drug seeking behaviour, wasting precious healthcare resources. The costs would be astronomical, subsidised by the private sector. Etc.
In the app I use I can “tag” people’s usernames and keep track of them across posts. It’s interesting to bump into “angry cyclist” being aggressive again about a completely random topic. It kind of puts it into perspective that it might just be how this person sees the world, especially if they’re very active and keep showing up. It feels very much like older forums where the same people keep turning up, which is something I didn’t realise I missed.
I had to open it, then hold tap on the image and click “play animation”, so it’s definitely app dependant
Yeah exactly. I set up Zorin OS for my family who are not tech savvy at all. It was a bit different at first but they said they felt much “calmer” using Linux. Modern Windows feels like trying to read an article online or watch a YouTube video without an ad blocker.
I liked the veggie burger when it existed. But nowadays any burger you get will look like it was prepared with a blindfold and briefly sat on. Like imagine a dry patty on a flat greasy bun, decorated with a single pickle, and spattered with cum mayonnaise.
Back when I was younger and willing to inflict fast food on my digestive system, I went to Carl’s Jr if I did want a burger. Similar price and actually a decent meal. Plus the chicken nuggets are star shaped and the kids loved that. I’m curious if there’s a similar experience in the states? All I know is if I visit North America I want to try an “In & Out Burger”, I’ve heard they’re good.

It’s just corporate doublespeak messing with your head. The normal person translation is:
oh fuck something might have happened. But we don’t want shareholders to panic. Uhh, so everyone, please pretend everything is fine.
Yes monogamous people would probably be offended. Think of it this way; to monogamous people, polyamory is functionally cheating, so you’re indirectly accusing them of being a cheater with your question. It’s not my fault, this is just the reality.
The solution is so extremely simple you’ll laugh. Instead of asking if they’re poly, ask people if they’re monogamous. Other monogamous people will be like, yeah of course aren’t you? Poly people will say no without being offended.
My ex went to McDonald’s when we went traveling overseas (yes really), so I can say I’ve (unfortunately) had McDonald’s in Australia, Paris, Hong Kong, and Japan.
Australia was the worst. Paris and Hong Kong were ok, but the menu was weird. Japan was actually good. Though… maybe it was skill issue, but the menu was completely impossible. So I ended up just begging the cashier for a ham-bo-ga, please God just any hamboga I’m so hungry.
My favourite part is when your style or the auto formatter changes over time and you have to decide between:
Plus it doesn’t fix the problem of auto formatters writing ugly code. You can’t easily tell the auto formatter that early returns can be bracketless for brevity, but nothing else can be. Unless you add a comment like \\ ignore-rule-2753674 which makes me want to throw up
Every medical professional I’ve spoken to says they hate the A.I. scribe because it makes so many mistakes and gets confused, but they’re forced to use it by the practice manager / institution they work at.
