- I very much agree. Doesn't need to be taken to extreme though.
BTW, for me this is the best use for AI: it's so much lower effort to type some sentences for AI to create a rough plan for me to engage with, and improve iteratively, then start implementing it, than doing this myself from scratch. Essentially anti-procrastination breaker.
- Most OSS is build by companies to commoditize their complement, not by some random devs building random stuff in free time.
- Yes, agreed.
- Aren't Tesla Model Y SUVs though?
- Targeting here goes beyond reasonable expectation from a military at war. Compare that to the russian terror of lobbing 500kg bombs at random housing blocks.
- They are a money-losing startup. One that loses money on the core product. Yet they act like even less focused big tech company. Those usually have money printing machines, and can waste untold billions like facebook spend on VR.
- Fine, let's just give up civilization and praise the disneyland for oligarch and rich brats, build and maintained by slave like labor.
- If that was the goal, we'd be doing CBDCs instead of crypto scams.
- If the demand for other oil products starts to drop due to EV prevalence, there might be less byproducts.
- I can criticize cities overreliance of cars for transport, yet own a car and even sporadically use it. The same applies here.
- They are fairly concentraded over small area, meanwhile rest of London is endless sea of small row houses.
- > entire western economy seems to be propped up by AI?
It's an example of alternative cost or Copernicus-Gresham's law, rather than some axiom.
- It's the opposite. It is doing the driving but you really have to provide lane assist, otherwise you hit the tree, or start driving in the opposite direction.
Many people claim it's doing great because they have driven hundreds of kilometers, but don't particularly care whether they arrived at the exact place, and are happy with the approximate destination.
- This is the epitome of the "yet you participate in society" gotcha.
- I can't even express how negatively I feel about build/packaging systems that process dependencies based on code-level imports instead of some explicit build manifest separate to the code.

Since then, in 2023 and 2024 EDF posted over 10 billion a year profits.
- 2022, not 2023. That was due to one time effect of corrosion repairs.
For 2023 and 2024 EDF was profitable, with net income of those two years exceeding that 2022 loss.
For me waking up when it's very dark feels much worse than getting to sleep with a bit of light.
