Every once in a while I still get hit over the head and realize programming will never be the same.

Instead of writing deterministic code with strong backgrounds in algorithms, itโ€™s going to be who makes the AI feel better about itself and willing to answer queries better.

I guess Iโ€™m confused, with that success, why they would shut down the program entirely?

If we really do take control of Gaza, we should build a technology corridor there and work with Israel to have a totally open border for trade and work, so that we can have Israelis working โ€œin the USโ€ on technology from Israel with no restrictions or red tape whatsoever.

People canโ€™t seem to just be normal. We can hire based on merit and teach history at the same time.

I have a theory that over the next decade we are going to:

1. AI interacting with web forms.
2. AI interacting with AI.
3. People realizing how wasteful that is and just wiring up APIs instead.

It wasnโ€™t until I realized that all the people smarter at sql than me never used the conventional case that I decided I wouldnโ€™t be laughed at for downcasing my queries.

Ah, now I know who to blame. At first I thought it was because I am watching from Up North, something I havenโ€™t done all season.

I echo at lot of these comments:

* better discussions on X
* particularly tech and startup discussions
* but Musk is such an annoyance and I donโ€™t want to support him more than I already do (Starlink)
* calm is good, in many instances

Very interesting. Makes me think FHIR should be extended to clinical guidelines for interoperability.

While MoCA is the standard, itโ€™s still not very good. But this is objectively hilarious.

Oregon v Ohio State on New Year's Day at the Rose Bowl is oddly familiar.

Oregon v Ohio State, both Big Ten teams, playing in the CFP quarterfinals is oddly different.
