Asked my buddy who is an L7/Principal at AWS with years of experience if this would affect him. He laughed. Said he had already decided to quit in January. This just clinched it. Said they kept hiring entry-level L4s. Lots more senior people going to leave.
Thanks! Looks like lots of options out there.
Our power panel is old and we’ve been advised it may need replacing. I briefly looked at Span panels, with built-in energy monitoring, but they’re not cheap. These monitors look like you at least get the data at a much more reasonable price.
How did you get the breakdown? We have a really old panel and may be looking at getting a new one in the next year. Would love to be able to see the breakdowns and figure out where it’s going. FWIW, in PG&E territory.
Switched over to Fox to see how they were going to spin it.
Hannity was like: “The moderators are lefties. It was 3-1 .”
Then he brought on Rubio, and I clicked away.
I’ve been using ChatGPT, specialized ones on Huggingface, and a bunch of local ones using ollama. A colleague who is into this deep says Claude is giving him best results.
Thing is, depends on the task. For coding, I’ve found all suck. ChatGPT gets you up to a point, then puts out completely wrong stuff. Gemini, Microsoft, and CodeWhisperer put out half-baked rubbish. If you don’t already know the domain, it will be frustrating finding the bugs.
For images, I’ve tried DALL-E for placeholder graphics. Problem is, if you change a single prompt element to refine the output, it will generate completely different images with no way to go back. Same with Adobe generators. Folks have recommended Stability for related images. Will be trying that next.
Most LLMs are just barely acceptable. Good for casual messing around, but I wouldn’t bet the business on any of them. Once the novelty wears off, and the CFOs tally up the costs, my prediction is a lot of these are going away.
Once they get Threads support, their target audience will be the non-Twitter universe. This would make it easier for businesses, governments, journalists, and non-technical folks like influencers and celebrities to switch out. That’s how you get mass adoption.
I just tried it last week. Good start. Lots of promise.
How great-grandpa caught syphilis? Towards the end, doctors said a lot of his ailments were because of that one, little issue. You can speculate, but…
Hate to be pedantic, but what kind of phone is that in the photo? It has the white, wired headphones, and an actual phone jack.
It says it’s a campaign event on Monday.
Wait until AGI!
AGI: Yes.
Wait until the sentient robots!
Sentient robots: Yes.
Wait until biological…
Biologics: Glub, glub. Yes.
An old, dear friend and his family are in town to drop off his daughter at graduate school. Reconnected with him back in April when I visited his side of the country. Looking forward to having them over and introducing them to my own family.
My kid swears by train-crossing channels on YT.
We used to have the same problem. Years ago, a relative recommended a Miele canister-style. They were pretty pricey, but took a chance. It could practically pull the floorboards up (fortunately, the power level is adjustable). It lasted forever.
Replaced it with the same brand. Apparently, some models are now made overseas and use cheaper components, but the higher-end models are still made in Germany. Totally worth it.
I remember seeing a while back a small, collapsible meat slicer that folds into a box shape. Just googled it. Made by SuperHandy, but no longer for sale on Amazon. May be available elsewhere. One place had it listed for 75 british pounds (around $100). FWIW, saw a used one on EBay for $65.
We may be talking about different things. The sous-vide thing is like a slightly larger immersion hand-mixer. Doesn’t take much space. It comes with a clip so it hangs off the side of a large kitchen pot full of water and plugs into power. There are fancier models that come with their own big plastic tubs and apps. But the basic one works on any container (besides, I just saw one of the popular brands looking to charge a subscription fee for using their app. Screw that!)
The temperature stays fairly tepid and constant since the device has its own heating element and a little internal propeller to move the water around. The food goes into freezer ziploc bags with the air squeezed out. Afterward, you can sear it in a pan or broiler but if slicing, there’s no need.
Now that you mention smoking, I’m wondering what it’ll be like to add a few drops of liquid smoke…
Just started using a ‘sous-vide’ machine to cook frozen, boneless chicken breasts, then slice them. Going to try it with that turkey as well. The machine has no bells and whistles (no app or anything) and was $80 on Amazon.
The chicken comes out really moist. You can throw dry-rub in the ziploc bag to add flavors. Had tried different cooking methods but the result this way has been the best.
Price comes to a fraction of store-cooked or deli meat. Helps the budget if you have a teenager doing school sports.
Tried bash, Make, and awk/sed. All hit brick walls. Finally landed on pyinvoke. Two dependencies to install on any new machine. Never had problems. Also, easy to debug and modify as projects evolve.
