Agents are really new and would solve plenty of annoying things.

When I code with Claude, I have to copy paste files around.

But everything we do in AI is new and outdated a few weeks ago.

Claude is really good but blocks you in 1-3h for a bit due to context length.

That type of issues will be solved.

And local coding models are super fast on a 4090 already. Imagine a small project digits on your desktop were you allow these models also more thinking. But the thinking style models again are super new.

Things probably are not done yet because we humans are the bottleneck right now. Getting enough chips, energy, standards, training time, doing experiments with tech a while tech b starts to emerge from another corner of ai.

5090 just was announced and depending on benchmarks it might be 1.x-3 times faster. if it's faster above 1.5 that would again be huge.


Have you used Cursor, which GP actually refers to?


I like one speaker in one particular book.

He also narrates another scifi book series and honestly I dislike this a lot.

He became the voice of one particular character for me.

I would love variety


He actively engaged now in EU politics.

Interview with the afd, using his huge platform for disrespecting politician's etc.

He is a clear threat to democracy.

The fun stopped at that point.


Free speech is a threat to democracy?


only the US lionizes "free speech" and the first amendment; Europe doesn't immediately roll over when someone invokes the bill of rights.

doubly so when their main defense of "free speech" is defending neo-nazi's in the pocket of putin


> only the US lionizes "free speech" and the first amendment;

Coincidentally, the US is also longest-standing democracy in the world.


for now. odds are good that may not be the case in four years...


You're being hugely reductive.

What we're really talking about is the richest man in the world, who owns one of the largest social media platforms in the world, using his financial and social media power to directly influence politics and/or elections according to his whim, and (it seems) currently to the benefit of causes or candidates who are often right-wing, and/or extreme or anti-establishment in some way.

There's a lot to unpack there, beyond "free speech".


Yes, when someone uses it to weaponise or manipulate the population via spreading lies and misinformation.

I think the Greeks worked that one out a couple of thousand years ago or so...

Free speech does not mean there is no accountability for what you say.


EU is not the US buddy. There's no 1st amendment here, and some speech can be considered a illegal.

Case in point, I am pretty sure that certain Nazi talking points, such as Holocaust denial is illegal in Germany.


There’s illegal speech in the US as well.

Free speech can be a problem especially when fake/false information is part of it.

But let's be honest Elon musk is doing propaganda and the worst version of free speech.

You are not bothered by an oligarch buying propaganda platform? / Making himself one?


Just that finding a good DM is hard


We apparently get enough protein due daily consumption and the avg sporty person doesn't need protein powder.

The only significant and obvious thing to take is creatin.

Lots of esoteric believe in the strength/ gym sport.

No you do not need to eat rice and chicken and broccoli every single day for gains just because a steroids taking gym bro does it.

Go to the gym 2-3 times a week, do enough weight that you can't repeat the exercise after 5-15 reps and do 3 sets min.

Magic


> We apparently get enough protein due daily consumption and the avg sporty person doesn't need protein powder.

I don't know what that means. The amount of protein people get varies dramatically. Chicken is a remarkably efficient way to get protein. Greek yogurt is also pretty good.

If you haven't measured your protein intake (with an app like myfitnesspal) you should try it.

I always thought I was a pretty knowledgable person when it came to nutrition and my eating habits competely changed when I bothered to look up the calorie and macro count of everything I ate. I also dropped 40 pounds and put on a lot of muscle.


Someone I know uses them for weight control. Their nutritionist recommended one small glass per day to help control hunger.

But geeze these protein shake/dietary websites are the most dark pattern sites. countdown clocks, hurry only 3 items left and one disappears while you are looking at it, sneaky monthly addons, extra fee at the end. Look I just want to buy a bucket of whatever protein garbage you are selling that will last 2 months. That they have extra junk in them that should not be there, is unsurprising.


That's what I thought too. But after 5 years of gym, I wasn't neither bigger nor leaner.

The diet at home was "good enough" - because every unchecked diet is "good enough", regardless of composition. That's what everyone says about their diet.

Turns out diet is 60% of gym gains. I'm saying this with no steroids at all.


And then you started taking protein powder and started gaining again?


Story is longer than that. Got married. Did't go to the gym for 9 years. Moved countries. Re-taked gym, along with better diet, started on protein powder + creatine. 1.5 years in and I'm already over what I couldn't accomplish in 5 years. And I'm not even taking the diet too seriously.
