They're complicit. You don't fire a boss because some people don't like them, you fire a boss when you don't like them.

What a state of affairs we're in...

Agree completely! The people saying "LLMs don't produce good code" are using prompts like "build a feature that does X, Y and Z"

Good prompting with current-quality LLMs needs to look like "create a function that take in params A and B and produces an output of C"

It's still faster than hand writing the code since the agent will refactor as it goes and break things down into manageable, small functions, but you have to tell it to do that.

Almost 7 thousand people bought one?! That's crazy, it was a meme product!

This is an interesting long-view take, but is the government also providing loans and trying to spurr manufacturing, machine shops, etc. too? Without that, it's just a dream to hope Canadian companies won't just wait 4 years, really.

My first thought was "holding a dick" then I went to these memes

If you want to be certain you don't get the tingle, you should seek out a "Buzz Button"

It's like a Sichuan peppercorn, but maybe 5x the strength (at least in my recollection).

The only place I've had one was at a cocktail bar in Toronto, they paired it with a very sweet cocktail and the combination was mind blowing.

It's just like sports betting but your surprise is the interest rate!

I rented a car from Hertz this weekend and the desk person blatantly lied about the coverage provided by my credit card. Who knows if he's instructed to say that or not, but it's shady either way.

Level 100 GeoGuessr over here!

He sure is running the government like one of his businesses...and now we see more clearly why they've all failed!

 

What innovation will they think of next!

 

The silver line works, but it's already crowded as is and still gets stuck in traffic near the airport.

Haven't tried the Blue Line, though.
