So much of the “LLMs will change everything!” marketing seems to be just trying to build FOMO. They are shoving the tools in everyone’s faces, it’s not some magic wand only the chosen few have access to.
If the tools actually work everyone is going to use them, otherwise they won’t. 🤷

WWL, the CBS broadcaster in southeastern Louisiana, is showing the Formula E race right now. This is far more mainstream than I was expecting for formula cars, let alone electric ones.

“We’ve analyzed the conflict in Ukraine, taken many lessons, and decided to do the opposite”
They're gonna do it, they're actually gonna propose a new Battleship class (personal inference from SECNAV comment)
Golden Fleet would require huge budget increase for Navy, but some hints -- inclusing endorsement from OMB Vought -- suggest maybe they'll request that

This is exactly where I’m getting the “AI is like CAD for software engineers“ take from.
Software like Revit has automated a *lot* of architectural drafting to the point that it’s almost too easy to go from idea to construction documents (landscape architecture still doesn’t have its own bespoke software still and that makes me insane but that’s a different thread)…3/?

Asking New Orleans locals for a recommendation on where to get lunch is a great way to get sucked into a long conversation about the city. Everyone here HAS OPINIONS about lunch, and it’s lower steaks(ha) than dinner so it’s a more casual argument.
Also if you want to make friends, embrace being a tourist. It's the same logic as people feeling warmly towards others who let them show them their fav show/movie, humans love other humans who are interested in the things they find cool

Let’s be honest if you are going to mandate backup cameras you need to mandate slow speed forward cameras for giant vehicles with no forward visibility.
The backseat monitoring and even backup camera mandates are fair game, IMO. I know parents are busy, but I do think it's questionable to force everyone to pay more for cars to keep people from forgetting and backing over their children. Sounds awful, but these are super rare issues.

I had an uber driver who was scrolling insta while driving 80+ down I10 on the way to the airport. 3 stars, at least I wasn’t late
We’ve 100% lost the war on using phones while driving and it’s the worst.

That’s the same number of arrests as Chicago, and our metro population is 1/10 the size. This is going to be rough.
