UnbornTao

I call that Tuesday.

Have you heard of our lord and savior Linus Torvalds?

God, the new web app.

I wish we could see some of the past Zen masters and observe how they might contradict our ideals, showing that words don't necessarily constitute understanding - even if they sound like the same thing others say. And how making certain impressions on people is relatively easy. Talk has always been cheap in spirituality. This is why I like guys like Jiddu Krishnamurti. Among other things, he shatters people's assumptions about these matters. He simply appears normal and doesn't offer a fantasy - he's authentic. He also emphasized that intellectual understanding is rather superficial when it comes to existential matters.

It's either blueberries, or you haven't gone deep enough yet. Do you want to leave this here or move it somewhere else? Or perhaps add something else?

Yep. The allure of a convenient path is apparently too hard to resist. What you're describing seems to be happening, to some degree, with Windows PCs now. I'm not even sure Microsoft has beta testers for the OS - or even that they have many developers and coders these days. They just wing it and treat users like guinea pigs.

Anyone can be now! "Code a coffee ordering app now, make no mistakes."

@Joseph Maynor Give the Blowfish template a try: https://github.com/nunocoracao/blowfish. It's fun; needs Hugo, though.

Study some of J. Krishnamurti's work.

Some of the robots I've seen can barely stand upright for more than a few minutes. Others are more impressive. Isn't this more of a hopeful dream or future possibility than a present reality? Again, not saying there can't be some truth to those claims.

We never got closure on who Google is, but solid video.

Yeah. Not making a choice is still a choice.

Just a joke. I agree with your take - for the most part.

I edited my response above to clarify my stance. It's very useful tech, but you need to assess the situation soberly. Without the hype, what is the tech actually doing? What can it do? I personally use it. I used GPT a while ago to create a JavaScript script to separate a bunch of content from a book into chapters, set up my Linux system with Nvidia drivers, troubleshoot technical problems, and other shenanigans. I like it, and I understand that this is just LLMs. But take a look at Windows, as a concrete example. Most of the AI implementation is poorly executed and, oftentimes, just unnecessary. Microsoft desperately wants to profit from its investment, pushing the tech down people's throats. At some point, you'll want to get an appliance, and you'll find it labeled 'AI Toaster'.
