> write it in C and ask an LLM to weed out the memory bugs?

because a non-determinist chain of reasoning is not the same as a fully deterministic algorithm. Its the best tool when a deterministic system is not feasable.

It is not. But rust's borrow checker has its costs. It forces awkward implementations. Either suffer the horrible life time syntax, or pay the price of clone everywhere.

If you use C and run LLMs over it once in a while, I think it will get you most of the way.

99% of code only needs to know 'static and 'a, maybe 'b when you take two references and return one but that's pretty rare. You only get into complex lifetimes if you write the kind of code that belongs in a library.

> I wouldn't be surprised if the Greeks and Romans felt the same.

reading and writing are corrupting your ability to remember everything you need to know!!

the price for movie tickets in america are insane too. I went to see the odyssey in malaysia. It was less than half the price for an equivalent experience.

> I don't recall us bombing Pakistan, India, Israel, China, or North Korea.

pakistan and india did it in secret.

incidentally, its alleged that one of the countries on that list killed a very prominent american in order to prevent us from stopping them from creating a nuclear program.

India had quite advanced nuclear program even in 1940s, with Indian nuclear scientists working with scientists from UK and Canada.

"Following the atomic bombing of Hiroshima in August 1945, R. S. Krishnan, a nuclear physicist who had studied under Norman Feather and John Cockcroft, and who recognised the massive energy-generating potential of uranium, observed, "If the tremendous energy released from atomic explosions is made available to drive machinery, etc., it will bring about an industrial revolution of a far-reaching character." He further noted, however, the difficulties in harnessing nuclear power for peaceful usage, "...a great deal more research work is needed before atomic power can be put to industrial use."

"In March 1946, the Board of Scientific and Industrial Research (BSIR), under the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), set up an Atomic Research Committee under Bhabha's leadership to explore India's atomic energy resources and to suggest ways to develop and harness them, along with establishing contacts with similar organisations in other nations."

US didn't much opose the nuclear programs in Pakistan and Israel (probably even supported nuclear program in Israel).

US bombed North Korea a lot.

am I the only one here who is perfectly fine with deepseek and qwen? generally I do all the planning in my head and a few sentences describing what I want is enough for deepseek to save me hours of work. Hell I get away with flash for most of it and use pro for some reviews.

> Most of them end up dead…

wait till you see what happens to a lot of forbes 30 under 30

> Support for double-wide GPUs (Up to 450W)

oh a double wide surprise for the AI industry? just what we needed.

I see no way this could go wrong at all.

Seems like a souped up credit score? With pretty much all the pros and cons of that existing system.

You can't mention that there are pros and cons and not mention that the cons vastly outweigh the pros, with any credibility.

I already don't like what I hear about standard American credit scores (but I don't live in the US anyway.)

This seems mostly like more of the same.

There are pros for employers, they can hire based on whether a candidate has been punished by other employers before and keep punishing them based on an objective social credit system. And there are cons.

Except in the credit report they only list your lenders and how much money you owe, and your payment history, and it's technically possible to not get any credit and have no information, or at least no recent information, in your credit report. In The Work Number, they not only list your employers, but also all your paychecks, and it's hardly possible to opt out.

Only fair if they also tell the candidate what the company pays other workers in similar roles. Transparency shouldn't go only one way.

I think in the US workers' rights to talk about salaries is already protected by law.

Many credit reports contain work history.

Out of my 3 big tech employers, only one reported just a fact of my employment with them to the credit report, but all three reported everything to The Work Number.

> Would you advise a 17 y.o. to learn how transistors work or how to code

how many of us out here are doing work directly in what we got a degree in? I majored in economics and now I'm a CTO.

I would absolutely advise a 17 yo to learn how to code, understand how transitors work and how to code an llm. even if he never works on llms, you basically end up with a kid with applied knowlege of statistics, math, physics hardware, logic and a whole lot of practice in critical thinking.

> This must be a troll.

Its funny cuz what he describes is basically my story as well. I lived to travel and took on substandard contracts to get by for awhile. eventually met my cofounders and now I'm living comfortably on a descent salary with a saas that I built. Hopefully I can keep this going indefinitly.
