Perhaps this is a challenge goal to help reestablish international trust once we start recovering from our current national mental breakdown
Is it too much to dream that even after jumping on board late, we reach the finish line while helping support our fellow nations across?
Before ai, my company’s misguided kpi was the number of merge requests
At least that one worked well for me since I’m generally making many small changes to an existing code base
or that they pay for high quality components
This would be a valid choice for both the manufacturer and consumer, if it were true and transparent. Most of us have things we spend more on with the expectation of quality and that we spend less on with the expectation there is no quality
For example I don’t buy the concept that my printer manufacturer has magical ink in their resale cartridges. Even if they did, the 3-4 cartridges I can otherwise buy would make up for a lot of magic
Yeah, even before its ceo came out of the closet as Nazi- after growing to a successful car business they got distracted by new and shiny
But I still think their cars are better technology than anything else in the us, and now cheaper than most. They still have their big upcoming push into semis. They still have most superchargers. They still have a rapidly growing storage business. The cybertruck flop really hurt them and I don’t see how they can afford another.
But ai doesn’t really have a profitably business model yet and humanoid robots are a much bigger gamble with no market yet. This is where a more typical business owner would create new corporate entities so Tesla could become a successful car company while the ceo could try other gambles
Damn! We’d fit perfectly (ok, on the edges), if only I was in good physical condition /s
But seriously I totally agree, where I previously strongly preferred someone near to my age, that no longer seems as relevant.
M<older>- probably consider 40-60 but would be suspicious of the ulterior motives of the younger ones
What does that have to do with trees? Or research about trees?
There are all too many cities in the world that are poorly located or have outgrown their resources. This article was not about that
However I do remember seeing that discussion a few days ago. Perhaps you want to search for that and add your comments there
Ah yes, the single issue person coming to move the goalposts
Chinese 2025 plan: science, technology, higher quality
US Heritage 2025 plan: Onward to Westeros!
Targeted temporary tariffs work best when you’re trying to develop an industry to catch up, such as Biden’s EV tax incentives to more quickly grow a larger market, infrastructure spending to speed buildout of chargers, manufacturing incentives to help legacy automakers transition, and a years long transition that manufacturers could plan around.
They also said that about Tesla, “no new car company can be successful…”
I was curious about that so tried googling ….
Canadian buses were
London buses
Maybe London benefitted from newer models and doesn’t get as cold as canada
I recently found out one of my college kids believed the crap about raw milk. I told him that any such benefits were due to it being whole milk, not due to it being unpasteurized. I’ll take my milk fat without a side of diarrhea, thank you
Hopefully not. The kpi just states usage.
Looking at the report provided by the ai vendor, there are several measures that might apply. There is also a “quality” measure that seems to be the number of lines accepted. I don’t have any indication that they card about that, but it is there
There’s no reason for this to be either-or. Space exploration and science is a tiny fraction of the money needed to fight climate change, coming from a different place with different priorities by different people. You will see zero benefit if you trade on off against the other.
Space isn’t what is stopping us from transitioning to a more climate friendly society, it’s mostly politics (at least in the us)
Yeah I can see the temptation. Ai usage is part of my kpis and is the one place I got dinged on my review. I thought i was insulated as a “partly coding” position, but they put me against full time coders so I look even worse
I guess they’re trying to force change, make us figure out how to make it work. The skeptic in me thinks it rewards people who have time to screw around, but when I set aside a week to see what I can do, I did increase my ai use.
I did find some useful tasks that also increase my “agentic” score! But my “quality” score (ai generated lines I accept) is stick at zero. We currently pay a flat fee but that’s changing next months to pay per token
As a software guy, every software company has jobs in mississauga and housing in the gta is cheaper than Boston
Unless you want to be dragged under the car, you should prefer a range weapon. Close in weapons are for melees or parking lots
I have to admit to developing the habit of wiggling the steering wheel regularly. Unfortunately that doesn’t help for camera based systems
Isn’t that the whole problem here? We have all these walls to limit authoritarians, fascists, royalists but are discovering how easily they shatter when someone has no shame, no morals, no allegiance to anyone but themselves ignores their existence. We have this system of checks and balances to keep fascists in place, but are discovering how quickly they abdicate their responsibility and how symbolic that defense is
