William Shatner has equivalent scientific credentials to Katy Perry, yet he receives no criticism for taking the same ride.

Sure, Shatner is a better vocalist, but that’s hardly the point if you’re talking about qualifications.

Chronic fatigue syndrome from the vaccine cancelled out my ADHD, now I’m neurotypical.

Cockroaches are free.

And as a bonus, farming them saves you money on insecticide.

Make America Gobble Arthropods!!

That's a positive spin on this for sure. What would we need high-level extraction, if no one was looking at the code. Even then, you probably could have the AI take the Assembly or Machine Code, and spt out the C++ or Rust Equivalent code, readable even.

Me personally, I want to write code, but it would be nice to have AI that helped with optimizing the code I produce. I know why I need it, future cases, it has no idea, but it would be able to tell me if my use of some data type would better if used another way or another data type would fit better.

I like it as a helper, not the primary. do the monkey work, the boiler plate. Answer some off the wall questions.

Maybe it can be a better compiler that the compilers we have now? doubt it currently, but who knows...

Sorry for the ramble, thank for coming to my Ted Talk, (as my 12 year old says)

To put out a hacker prize for laid off employees to target big AI companies for data center elimination.

Only somewhat correct. Unemployed because the AI companies convinced the CEOs that they can cut headcount and be fine.

And with 50% of the software engineers in 2019 now unemployed (even among senior level developers) they'll have you reviewing that code for minimum wage.

The same could be said of a lot of humans.

My Briefcase was like Dropbox for your 3.5" floppy disks. I think I upgraded to a Zip drive around that time. YIPPEE!

I trust Weather Underground instead- it's private citizens, not government propaganda, and it's far more accurate.

Post-COVID, I don't trust governments or corporations to do science. I saw too much statistical abuse, p-hacking, politics, and outright lying about the scientific method to trust federal funding OR corporate funding of science.

Science is best done by private citizens funding their own experiments with outside jobs, not academic peer-review cancel culture bubbles.

Words sense in those that make do not order.

It might be a factor. However, the population is growing, and while the demographics are shifting a bit, they are still a lot of kids, reaching drinking age.

However there are milestones that us older folks had while growing up, that no longer seem as important to the younger generation.

Watching a PG13, R Movie, Getting a drivers license, drinking, smoking, Having Sex, Getting Married, Going to College, Getting an Apartment, getting a house... All these are in decline with the younger generation. Some because of increased difficulty with finance, due to increased cost of living rising higher than salaries, and also prevalence of online culture and access to direct media, so people are finding Cliques that are not necessarily tied to doing particular things, and accessing stuff they are more interested in.

They are plusses and minuses to this trend, but I wouldn't spend too much time complaining about it, younger folks will be doing their own thing that is different than the way older people did for generations.

. . . with half a deck of cards.

No, but normally as production increases a lot of the carbon offset is mostly better managed at scale.

For example, a Diesel train may burn 4 gallons of fuel per mile. however being that it carrying so much payload that they rate it 500 miles per gallon per ton.
While an Electric Car that says has 100 eMPG will not be as carbon low in energy expenditure if needed to pull so much weight.

That number seems like the cost to make the material, from start, not in sets of hundreds of thousands of drives.
