For all of my adult life I didn’t shave my face because I thought it would give me rashes.

Took me 9 years to figure out it was an allergic reaction to the aftershave

The grapevine has told me the german economy is held together by german rearmament and American reindustrialization

@zouhanagyo Has it started talking yet?

[Leo @wave1martian]

@DominikWKH what about Tatendrang?

The chart is my master

The term "Fullstack Engineer" now means "Hardware, Electrical, and Software" capability

@IaimforGOAT that would be soo sick. I would love to build a bonsai nursery, fully automated and with digital twins which users can "perform" maintenance on, after the advent of AGI. A cyberpunk-shinto project

@LaGrandeRouine @KILLTOPARTY @kjay2205 Thats how new techniques spread

[Leo @wave1martian]

turns out that shifting personal away from building software to assembly instead of hiring dedicated assembly personal is a sign your employer is on its way to insolvency

[Leo @wave1martian]

Spend weeks assembling things. Screws are a civilizational bottleneck

There are memetic traps. Context meshed deeply within peoples mind, somehow it’s embedded itself in there, a mental ulcer. They easily activate and shortcut decision making, prematurely restricting the solution space and ever increasingly clinging to it, pretending to have built an Eden, while in fact it lacks any foundation to qualify as a good solution.

My favorite pet peeve is shipping containers turned into homes. One container isn’t enough, so you’ll weld multiple containers together, it needs insulation or else it will get hot like a furnace in the sun, windows need to be cut, the structure might need reinforcement. So much energy is spent trying to bend it to the will, to make it fit, why fight an uphill battle?
The goal has never been to find a smart solution, which matches the requirements so perfectly things just make sense and everything falls into place effortlessly, the goal was to build a shipping container home. And I think that is disgusting.

People get agitated over that but the issue with the quoted example isn’t that it’s AI slop, it is that it has been human slop before and AI is just an amplifier of that.

Be aware of memetic traps. Don’t fall for them

somehow this project seems to have pivoted to being yet another flight simulator

[Om Patel @om_patel5]

someone vibe coded a 3d city where every github developer is a building

more commits = taller building.

more repos = wider base.

lit windows = recent activity

The claimed cost of production is at $160 per ton of iron.
Whereas traditional methods cost between $300 and $500 for pig iron

[Leo @wave1martian]

Chemical iron extraction from broad range of ore quality, less energy intensive and cheaper than traditional methods.

What's the downside/shortcomings?
Whats the tradeoff that made people decide against such approach?

As the reason why this hasn’t been done before (at scale at least) another video stated that it wasn’t economically viable.
The process relies on ion exchange membranes which historically had enormously hgihtprices.
The innovation comes from a new recipe to create those membranes which are cheaper while also being more resitant to the fouling.

[Leo @wave1martian]

So I think interfaces should optimize for that

[Leo @wave1martian]

I think future user interfaces will conceptually be of point and prompt nature

[Leo @wave1martian]

With AI it’s going to be the same.
It’s easier for both parties
