Looking for FT or contract. LDN based.
I'm a web engineer, front end specialist & tech lead. React focused for a good while but tech agnostic, regularly picking up new frameworks, even languages on the job.
Design background, experienced in backend, DBs, SysAdmin/DevOps. Love TS & TDD.
Hit me up!

After reading the Redwall books, I have a literary criteria to which all books must be subjected. Are the depictions of rich cooking central to the plot?

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.
This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

You don't get to pretend that the output of an LLM is suddenly significant or meaningful when it suddenly aligns with your position, as illustrated perfectly below...

The Conservative Party is simultaneously arguing people shouldn’t be jailed for social media posts directly calling for violence, but also that people’s citizenship should be revoked over social media posts they don’t like.

I bet this shit hits so hard if you're stupid and don't like to think
Thoughts are what distract us from the reality of the moment (the reflection in the pond).
They are like ripples on the surface of the water:

Reminder that some people have little choice and DO NOT make any extra money for the pleasure...
Having a 1 hour+ commute is never worth it. I don't care how much extra money you earn or how many podcasts you listen to on the way. Spending such a significant portion of your life simply going to and from work is a waste of life.

There is no use case for LLMs that outweighs any ONE of the massive problems inherent in them that we currently know of, and there will be more emergent problems yet.

i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides
Adam Raine’s life hurtled toward tragedy soon after he began talking with ChatGPT about homework. Analysis of his ChatGPT account shows how the chatbot became a confidant as he planned to end his life.

I cannot stand this website sometimes. I do know what a passkey is and I understand the value prop. So does everyone else in my replies. The implementation is dogshit and the rollout has been terrible and forced. It's very easy to fuck up. Please quit evangelizing to my friends. Behave.
