Yeah, I get them mixed up all the time. I don’t use them.

The president is just a bobblehead. Cabinet member are handling everything based on rough direction and party line. You just need to elect someone who will choose competent secretaries and not… well… not hiring Jared and fucking Ivanka.
Trump is locked up.
Trump get epsteined.
The moronverse explode.
That’s why they have centimeters (cm). When I buy a TV in Europe the diagonal size is expressed in cm.
People here have a better feeling of what 138cm is than they do for 55’ because they are just more used to it.
Neither is a better measurement, it’s just a matter of what you’re accustomed to. If you were used to banana scale you’d think 8b is easier to understand than 55’.
On the other hand Wikipedia was absolute dogshit it the early years because it was riddled with wrong or false information, yet it remained popular and arguably improved.
AI is laughably bad right now, but it’s a start. We’re looking at a technology in it’s infancy
Well…
The field of AI research was founded at a workshop held on the campus of Dartmouth College, USA during the summer of 1956.
The first machine learning algorithm was devised in 57. Back propagation in 74. IBM defeated Kasparov in 97.
The field is making steady progress but it’s not exactly an infant and there’s no telling at which rate it will progress in the future.
APIs that don’t exist
I had that. I got a bunch of ok code for an AWS API, but then it decided to hallucinate a method. I tried all kind of prompt to instruct it that the method didn’t exist and not to use it, but it always came back telling me it was the right way to do it.
Anyway, still faster than reading the doc for a one off script I just wanted thrown together quickly and never to be reused again.
Any somewhat touristic city that didn’t implement some drastic restrictions has been fucked. In those places you can make from 2 to 10 time as much with airbnb as you can with a normal tenant so it becomes the obvious choice for a property owners. the only way to fix supply is regulation.
Having the legal staff and having the upper management from another country able to understand it at a conceptual level and integrate it into their decision making process is entirely different. One of my friend is a lawyer in France who specialises in helping US corporation handle their subsidiaries here. There’s not a week that passes without him being asked how to do something illegal here but legal in the US and the client being baffled and literally refusing to understand that they can’t.
The main one being firing people, from the way he talks about it, he seems to be earning half his income re-explaining to the same people over and over that no you can’t just give 2 weeks notice and fire people at will just because you need a quick expense reduction before the end of the quarter to amuse the shareholders. It just doesn’t register.
OTOH 20 years ago half of the sites on the internet were not yet made of copy-pasta SEO optimized copies or stolen content designed to get search engine clicks. Maybe the enshitification of the web itself has something to do with it.
I think that underestimates the difference between handling tech that need to keep people alive and restoring a computer that sits in a basement and is not expected to do anything more than provide cool entertainment.
Going through testing, certification, documentation and training for a USB adapter would cost millions, even if the piece was available off the shelf for 50 bucks.
The floppy is just the funny visible part of the issue, the core issue is that their whole stack has seen the dinosaurs roam free.
By running over people it will ensure that it has a decent supply of people in wheelchair. Because even AI need job security.
