Walking up in the middle of the night and unable to go back to sleep? Sounds like you're sleeping like a baby already!

Pharma lobbying is similar to political lobbying. It's one of the main ways decision makers get informed, but it's morally dubious because it's also an end-run around the needs of the people affected most by those decisions.

I appreciate that the AI decided to put the lines of code on the back of the screen

Are you really hungry or are you just hungry because you know you're not supposed to eat right now?

The data isn't ours, so we get to say what you want but not how to get it or we could lock it for everyone, so we're going to need a declarative language.

We don't want to share the details of the data heap, so we'll need a unified set of verbs for people to use.

Oops, looks like we invented SQL.

In theory, it's also injection-proof.

To be fair, there is no good answer to that question. Any real endorsement would be seen as US interference.

Oklahoma has fairly loose gun laws and castle doctrine. It's a matter of time before someone loses an eye over this.

I've always had problems with them. The popcorn kernels that come in a jar and you pop yourself in a popper are the worst. Their husks are more rigid which lets them get down there easier. Floss usually gets them, and a WaterPik got the ones the floss left, but that one time, neither worked.

Nah, the husk slipped down between the tooth and my gums and I couldn't get it out. It's the perfect size and shape. It made its way down under the tooth and I ended up needing a root canal.

I don't eat popcorn anymore.

I lost one due to popcorn. The rest are doing great though.

Also be very careful trying to draw a racial conclusion like your last point seems to be doing. That might not be a road you want to go down.

That last point is intentionally misleading. US-born adults are 66% of the illiterate population, but they're 85% of the total population. Non-US-born are 34% of the illiterate population and are 15% of the total population.

AI is a junior dev. If you know what to do, but rote work isn't worth your time, you tell your junior dev to do it and then check it. In some things, you eventually need to be absolutely correct (security, scaling), and if you try to use it as a senior dev for those, you're gonna have a bad time.

The best reason to not use an LLM is because it replaces introductory knowledge jobs. It won't replace true experts, but all experts start life as introductory level, and the LLM destroys any economic incentive for that pipeline. Then once that pipeline is gone, I don't think it's coming back.

Why won't banks touch these projects? Too risky? Too low ROI? Too technical for them to assess?
