That's probably dependent on your specific area of work. For most projects, It's okayish to deploy code with bugs. There will be future releases that fix those bugs and add improvements. Obviously that's not the case with high risk systems like space rockets software and similar.

With other engineering professions, all projects are like that. You cannot "deploy a bridge to production" to see what happens and fix it after a few have died

I also pay for Nebula. I wish more content creators moved to that platform. It's so annoying to deal with YouTube's homepage to find the videos of the creators that are not in Nebula

If we were trying to adjust the time to track the solar time, wouldn't we need to adjust the clocks every day as days get shorter/longer? I keep seeing this in every post discussing Daylight Savings. What's the obsession with tracking solar noon?

> If we were trying to adjust the time to track the solar time,

No, but

> wouldn't we need to adjust the clocks every day as days get shorter/longer

This is how hours used to work at least in Roman times, but I think also into the Medieval Ages.

> If we were trying to adjust the time to track the solar time, wouldn't we need to adjust the clocks every day as days get shorter/longer?

No (not within a min or two). When days get shorter, it's not like they just lose daylight in the evening.

Isn't the point of technology and engineering to find alternatives with the resources that one has?

Yes, but it takes time.

Like we have solar now. People talk about how it saves environment. But I think another similar win would be reduction in dependency on oil, and countries won't have to go to war over oil. But it takes time...

But it seems what technology gives, technology takes away. Because new technologies comes with its own resource requirements. And the cycle looks like it will go on...

> Yes, but it takes time.

So be it.

This doesn't excuse going to war with neighbors because you want to steal their stuff. Learn to live with yours.

Learn? Can you learn to live without eating? Do you know what happens when an economy collapse?

> Can you learn to live without eating?

Would you murder your neighbor to steal their food? Especially if you weren't really starving, just preemptively stealing their supplies?

All this talk of hoarding and taking resources by force used to be the stuff of villains. When did it become normalized?

Have you ever gone through a whole a week without eating anything? Have you seen your kids go through that?

If don't, then I will have to say you got no idea about what you are talking about..

The US is taking money from food assistance and spending it on missiles.

> Have you ever gone through a whole a week without eating anything? Have you seen your kids go through that

Have you? And did you murder your neighbor to steal their food? Did you believe the best course of action was to fight your neighbors?

Your ridiculous analogy doesn't even apply to the US, one of the wealthiest countries in the world. In your imagined scenario, are they the poor starving family who must kill and steal to survive?

Dude. Think hard before getting backed into absurd metaphors.

> I haven't, and that is why I am not making higher-than-you [...]

Then maybe stop making up hypotheticals that don't apply to me, you, or any of the nations involved? What are you hoping to achieve here? "Let's assume we live in a Mad Max world, would you steal all the women and water"?

> And where did that wealth come from? Sure, you have smart people, but it also require a functioning economy to mobilize and convert all those talent into wealth

So you think the US doesn't have a functioning economy or smart people, and therefore must resort to war to get their resources?

> BOOM! Back to zero...

So, in your bizarre logic, it's best to resort to theft and murder?

You win! Good day!

Why not? If you have been designated a supply chain risk you may as well become one. They should move everything overseas

And then it's going to be so fun guessing at which time each country in the world starts working

Not hard, visualize the locations on the globe and a pie with 24 slices. If you start work at 12, and you want to know when someone 2 slices West will start you add 2 to get 14. 2 slice East of you, subtract 2 to get 10.

Better than guessing what timezone the region picked when it spans multiple natural time zones, and whether they do or don't have time changes.

Also it's much easier for communication, because if someone sends you a message asking to have a call or meeting at X hour there's no need to know their timezone, because your X hour is the same as theirs no matter where you are in the world.

Ideally, you would be asking what time your specific colleagues start and end work, which could be quite different than the average of people who work in their country.

It makes sense when schedules are fixed and time is the only thing we can change. I wouldn't mind switching to standard time if I can change my work schedule to have more light after work. I work from home, I don't care about not having light in the morning

I miss sunset times from Spain. It makes days feel longer

That's what I don't get with AI, isn't it supposed to make us work less? Why do I need to bother making my websites AI friendly now? I thought that was the point of AI, to take something that's already there and extract valuable information.

Same with coding. Now I don't get to write code but I get to review code written by AI. So much fun...

AI is not great at browser use at the moment and it's also quite inelegant to force it to. It's one thing if it reads your nicely marked down blog, it's another for it to do my groceries order by clicking around a clunky site and repeatedly taking screenshots. Not to mention how many tokens are burnt up with what could be a simple REST call.

So to answer your first question, it's less about _reading_ and more about _doing_. The interfaces for humans are not always the best interfaces for machines and vice versa in the doing, because we're no longer dealing with text but dynamic UIs. So we can cut out the middle man.

As for coding, Karpathy said it best: there will be a split between those who love to code and those who love to build. I too enjoyed writing code as a craft, and I'll miss doing it for a living and the recognition for being really fast at it, but I can do so much more than I could before now, genuinely. We'll just have to lean more into our joy of building and hand-code on the side. People still painted even after the camera was invented.

Do they? What are those OpenAI earnings that you are talking about? That's a company that should have ceased existing some time ago if earnings were important

Investors want to see growth. If there’s no growth or even a loss in users the next round of funding will be more difficult to secure.
