@TonyTaylor_87 He's had multiple neck and back injuries including 1 failed surgery. Looks like compensation and related movement.

@grok @eeWeeWllamsA @dom_lucre We've had an unusually high number of large size meteors recently, such as the 240 ton one in Ohio a few days ago, now this and others reported worldwide. Commonsense says paths are crossing. I get science has to check boxes off, but isn't this a bit obvious?

[Scott Hiser @ScottHiser]

@grok @eeWeeWllamsA @dom_lucre @grok Has there been any evidence of discussion that our solar system has crossed paths with a field of objects, such as a cluster moving in a wide spread group associated with I3Atlas? Could there just be a large field of objects and our paths crossing at scale?

When the code gets complex, that's when I take over. If you do not count coding in Basic as a kid and only professionally, I have 25 year experience. It does struggle on complex code, even when SOLID. But for me, I just let it iterate while I do other things so I don't mind that it takes 6 hours to do what an experienced employee could have done in 30 minutes. There are not a lot of developers with 25 years experience, I've seen multiple tech cycles and old problems re-appear multiple times where younger developers think it is a novel problem. (Then they create a new framework).

@VadimStrizheus @claudeai I think it is estimating how long it would take without using AI. Follow-up the estimate and ask how long it would take interactively using AI following best practices. But if you are doing corporate work, accept it's estimate because there will be meetings, delays on data, etc.

@becomingV @claudeai @AnthropicAI My API had been working but just dropped a bit ago.

[Scott Hiser @ScottHiser]

@insider0x This is true.

@PalmerLuckey @AlecStapp In automotive alley, I grew up hearing about military tooling and dies being stored, that if the US ordered it, they could switch from making vehicles to making weapons. Ford did crank out B-24's in Willow Run, MI. So, it checks out.

@trq212 I was 6 when I started programming That WAS how making images and shades originally was done. Also, people, stop calling everything a hack. Not everything is a hack. Learning something you didnt know isn't automatically a "hack".

@MehdiHacks This is AARL's station in CT. CW 7k multi-band. CQ CQ CQ DE W1AW.

@great_martis Fast moving. Complete closure? 24-48 hours until cleared by the US military. But as a hot zone, we'll see rerouting around the Horn of Africa. $200? Maybe on a spike but not sustained. Predictable strike, after Olympics and while the market's are closed.

@noahzweben I started my tech career when the Blackberry was released. This reminds me of that. I saved 2 hours a day if responding to emails end. Now we can do that with code. Awesome!

I retired at 34 from Fortune 100 in 2013. There is risk aversion and weakest link concerns But there is always a budget to outsource. It's cheaper, lacks red tape, and taps into the spirit of entrepreneurs. My biz is also in tbe topic 1% with regards to how we use AI. Even optimized and using CAG with our in-house orchestration system thats over a year old, we can easily burn over $150/hour in tokens on a slow day. And that includes using on-prem LLMs to save costs on the more mundane tasks that do not need the power of closed source LLMs. When we fire up all our agents we can burn millions of tokens in 15 minutes. We did get rate limited and put in timeout for a week about a year ago even though we are on the API plans. We had to respond and explain what we were doing that was using so many tokens. We're also accessing real-time GPU services for some of what we do. I want to say that costs us 6 cents a second, if I recall. The market is catching up though. I think our advantage could be erased in 6 to 12 months. But things seem to take longer than I predict.

[Scott Hiser @ScottHiser]

@sama Given the costs do you realize how insane this is? We are testing the real-time model and we burned through 1.3 million tokens in 10 minutes of back and forth speaking. Yet we can use text API and process 100,000 pages for $1. Something is very wrong.

@ThomasRawling21 @JOKAQARMY1 Flattened and/or tumbled end over end upward. Anybody who has shot enough rounds at solid/metal targets eventually hits the edge of something and the bullet makes a zip sound and does something unpredictable.

[Scott Hiser @ScottHiser]

@ForrestPKnight No. The only place it saves time is implementing code based on established documentation. But if doesn't integrate it very well, assuming it gets the right version, which it often does not. It needs extensive correcting, fails to follow SOLID, adds more than it removes, etc.

[Scott Hiser @ScottHiser]

@elonmusk The trade-in process isn’t streamlined when the car is no longer with the owner, such as when service was declined in favor of buying new. The app asks for photos, but in this case a Tesla associate must handle it, causing small delays. (I bought new Saturday, longtime customer.)

[Scott Hiser @ScottHiser]

I moved out in 1997 making $5.35/hour. Just checked. My first apartment is $200/mo more today than in 97. The Michelina's frozen meals I ate are "cheaper" than in 1997. A starter home is not $500k. That's a median home, 1k sqft bigger than a starter home. It was worse in 1981. A home at that time was 50% of income. While it's high today verses 10 years ago, it's not 1981 bad.

@JustAFarmer_1 @Nas_tech_AI He said blue collar.

@PawlowskiMario Does anybody commenting study the Bible? The book of Leviticus was written to the Levitus and the Isrealites, hence its name. Christians are not Isrealites. The Old Testament was not for gentiles.
