"You can just do things". No fucker, you can't, if some of the things you take for granted are not available to others.

Nobody is discounting the raw talent that these ppl have.

But raw talent doesn't mean shit if a bunch of other things are not in place - location, wealthy parents, wealthy country, social welfare, free high quality education, etc.

"They started off in a garage". Yeah, one attached to a house in one of the wealthiest neighbourhoods in the country!

Not a coincidence that even Steve Jobs, the rare founder who actually experienced poverty, found success because he was in the most happening place in the world.

I am sickened over and over by kids in *India* choosing to drop out of college because some tech luminary didn't need college.
Man, they dropped out of college in *silicon valley*! Even kids dropping out in other parts of US will not get the opportunities that being in the right place will.

Using claude code for infra troubleshooting is underrated!

To be honest, i think it is unfair to judge *teens* about media literacy. Who among us had a coherent idea of how the world works, let alone media at that age? Many of us were distrusting of a lot of authority figures at that point and believed in a world much less gray than we figured out later.

You are right. The generation algorithm that I read briefly seems to use image noise removal and is very pixel specific.

But for infographics i wonder if using general LLMs generating svgs would give better output than raster images. As u said, would be easier to fix post

I wonder if the image generation capability is only raster. Can the same be done in svg format?

The last i tried that, I had to abandon it because i couldn’t get a specific profile to act as the default browser for my macOS.
