   I started to convert a lot of my content in AV1 until I realized that my Nvidia Shield devices won't play AV1. My $30 firestick will play them but I do really prefer the Shield. I guess I'll wait it out and hope for a new Shield (it's been 2019 since Nvidia released one) but i'm not going to hold my breath.

   As we all know here, if the the title of this post was about Codex on the web, the top comment would have been about using Claude instead.

   YMMV, but this definitely doesn't track with everything I've been seeing and hearing, which is that Codex is inferior to Claude on almost every measure.

   only 2 people (engineer and conductor) for an entire train that is over a mile long seems about right to me though

    Of course data was used, but you may have the order of operations wrong; execs often make the decision before the data.

    Given the nature of programmers, I think the bigger threat is that AI makes the jobs so mind numbingly boring and unchallenging that they quit before AI gets the chance to replace them.

    It doesn't impress me now but it was the first exposure I had to see Excel being used fluently. I later learned that it was very common in the world of finance and nothing exactly impressive. It's like how I impress somebody with my mediocre sql skills until they see a real dba in action.

    Shkreli is live streaming this right now and somebody on his voice chat just said to him "No offense Martin, but you're probably the last person I would go to if I had incontrovertible evidence of Satoshi's identity"

    For all the horrendous shit that this Shkreli guy is known for, I always think of his Microsoft Excel skills first.

    Pilots are truly some of the craziest people around. Just last summer, a guy flew a Cessna 172 from California to Hawaii.

    I think this is one of the better lists out there. I own almost all of the books in this list.

    But don't get your hopes up too much. I'm still a lousy programmer.

    for $199, you'd think Nova would be mobile friendly. Maybe this has changed? When we tried it last year, we were quite shocked it had no responsive design support.

    I was currently in the process of buying some tickets on Ticketmaster and the entire presale event had to be postponed for at least 4 hours due to this AWS outage.

    I'm not complaining, I enjoyed the nostaliga - sometimes the web still feels like the late 90s
