@JessePeltan I was wondering why my car is 6kg lighter now than when it was new.

Slash commands are super irritating. It was cool for IRC. It is not cool for AI TUIs. It's too human centric, delete it.

[Daniel Potts @danielppotts]

@burkeholland @debs_obrien Yeah I think good managers and leaders ensure their colleagues have the support and time to grow without being micromanaged. Maybe both individuals and managers don't quite grok the idea that it is a force multiplier after an initial investment.

[Daniel Potts @danielppotts]

@burkeholland @debs_obrien It is not on leadership to tell you how to do your job.

[Daniel Potts @danielppotts]

@burkeholland @debs_obrien It's actually really easy. Just commit to using the tools for everything you do. It might take a little longer at first but once you have momentum it pays dividends.

[Daniel Potts @danielppotts]

@burkeholland I don't get this - why add slash commands for everything when simple natural language should suffice? I can't do deep research and then go ahead and implement in a single slash command. I was hoping the UX would go the other way, I don't want to use / at all.

@burkeholland @BrettReif @code Pretty sure they are in (preview)

@MrMichaelSharpe @AUKUSforum @AUKUSconnect @NuclearTask HMAS Drop Bear, because you know why.

@OzTeslaGuy I get it - this was my major EV concern prior to ownership, but once you own an EV the question doesn't really make sense. It is very rare an EV owner actually waits for their charge. I have saved so much time and hassle not having to deal with petrol gas stations.

token rate limits are my bottle neck.

@techAU If you can count it with your fingers, you're barely using it.

[Daniel Potts @danielppotts]

I need more compute.

[Daniel Potts @danielppotts]

@jxmnop Not just software. Transistor count too. The allocation of die space on each of those chips for the GPU and associated cache etc are quite different from one another.

@renew_economy House battery, two EVs, and a pool to 33c. And a giant three phase air con cooling the house to 22c while it is 32c out today. Zero grid imports. Too easy.

#swimming is such a cheat. In just 1.15hrs and 4.3kms(2.7mi) I burnt 1234kcal with no kicking. Eat whatever you want.
