Because after a few years they complain again when more changes are made because the current game is so good…

Have you got a link for that?

Android lets you set custom alarms. The best one I have is a recoding of me screaming into my phone to “get the fuck up”

Until the engine warms up, I can’t keep the windscreen from misting up in the winter. Especially if it’s frosted on the outside!

…how do you demist your cars?

It’s the only time that tabs Vs spaces really riles me up. So annoying when everyone has different tab lengths

They went through a phase where they were getting awful yields. No idea why they had those problems and others didn’t.

The money was to build fabs, which they are still doing - which is costing them most of their money they struggle to afford because their current chips are awful.

Their fabs may be shit too. Hopefully the new ones are better

The mold definitely should be fixed… But are ants not a tennant problem, not a landlord problem?

Have any of the tech media done any work on which generations get improvements from this? Zen 4&5 sure, but what about earlier chips?

It’s not that I like manuals, it’s that I hate automatics randomly shifting and accelerating/slowing down randomly because of it.

It might not be as big an issue in bigger engines cars though, not driven anything bigger than a 1L engine in over a decade.

Looking forward to a direct drive electric car (with customisable acceleration profiles - even better!)

If you go into the windows notification centre there is a focus button that handles that for you I think.

There aren’t enough AI specialists. More are being created by picking up these projects.

The problem is that AI is too hyped and people are trying to solve things it probably can’t solve. The projects I have seen work are basically fancy data ingress/parsing/summarisation apps. That’s where the current AI tech can really shine.

If you have the ability to build an AI app in house - holy shit shit that can improve productivity. Copilot itself for office use… Meh so far.

To actually answer your question - yes, but the only times I actually find it useful is for tests, for everything else it’s usually iffy and takes longer.

Intelligently loading the window could be the next useful trick

I think that giving the LLM an API to access additional context and then making it more of an agent style process will give the most improvement.

Let it request the interface for the class your using, let it request the code for that extension method you call. I think that would solve a lot, but I still see a LOT of instances where it calls wrong class/method names randomly.

This would also require a lot more in depth (and language specific!) IDE integration though, so I forsee a lot of price hikes for IDEs in the near future!

I’m going to call BS on that unless they are hiding some new models with huge context windows…

For anything that’s not boilerplate, you have to type more as a prompt to the AI than just writing it yourself.

Also, if you have a behaviour/variable that is similar to something common, it will stubbornly refuse to do what you want.

I didn’t hear about that, what happened?

Tried to answer, but it got very convoluted, here it is anyway as I typed it out…

Because that’s a less useful metric basically, to change their budget a government can:

• increase existing taxes
• add completely new taxes
• print money (depending on the level of government)

This means that a budget can swing quite a bit in value quite quickly if needed (or if something goes wrong). This means the % could swing quite widely.

GDP on the other hand is effectively the value of the economy, so moves slower and is a better metric to compare different countries with different economies and tax systems (assuming they tell the truth about their GDP…)

Ultimately, if a government needs more money, most of the time it can get it… But whatever they do will have side effects. But those side effects depend on the size of the economy, the bigger the economy (measured by GDP) the more can be done/taken without causing a large effect.

Both of these fail to highlight countries that already have a high tax load though, so in practice a wide range of metrics will be used.

I think he has a budget problem mostly. He has executed some games acceptably, but mostly when the teams were smaller and cheaper. He is an ideas guy you want to pair with an experienced implementer and a pile of money… And maybe a PR team 😆
