"Prompt engineering" is not a skill. It's middle management: barking an instruction and making someone else do the work. Except the "someone else" isn't actual skilled humans, it's a machine that can't talk back and spits out a statistical average. Of COURSE that's appealing to the MBA set.

At this juncture I’d like to point out:
* we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing
* there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world
* a united approach could stop the climate crisis
But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

Isn’t this the literal position of the current administration?
Oh my god you want me to find "evidence" before putting someone in jail? Every time?? Do you have any idea how long that would take

People were informed about Trumps tariff announcement prior to his social media post or official announcement.
This is a clear case of insider fraud and market manipulation.

Deporting people means a judge signs a final deportation order, and the person is returned to their own country. What we are doing is kidnapping a person off the street and paying for them to be held indefinitely in concentration camps outside US courts' jurisdiction. 100% deliberately extralegal.

I think this is the disconnect.
Schumer still focused on POLITICAL STRATEGY.
Democratic grassroots focused on the SUBSTANTIVE HARM being done to the United States.

LLMs are the great dunce mask-off moment. If you think these things are magical you are credulous beyond redemption.
How would a person who doesn't have the knowledge have the ability to tell between correct and incorrect answers? How would they know what to ask?

I have to admit that I've been surprised at the level of hate at AI LLMs.
There is finally a tool that allows those without access to an advanced education to self learn, anywhere , anytime. To get answers to questions, (even if sometimes wrong) , that they would otherwise never have access to

Nag. Sorry. I can't abide the pocket lining any more. You've been a better billionaire than most, but at the end if the day, it's all just a meal ticket for you. Gross.

A thing I wish I could teach people is that the vast majority of very rich people are deeply stupid. They did not get where they are because of ingenuity or talent. They got there because of compound interest on hereditary wealth and being tax cheats.

Cheer up, Democrats. Maybe it’s true that we’re standing by doing nothing as Donald Trump destroys our democracy. But at least we’re staying true to our norms and values.

The future of design is about soul.
There are more designers than ever, yet fewer are pushing beyond established design libraries. And that’s okay. Almost anyone with a bit of training can now design a flow and even bring it to a working v1 (or should I say v0).
