Haha yeah. What?

My point was that defending the pissing contest over standards that gave us consumers six ports instead of one to do all the same tasks really misses the mark, imo.

Yeah.   AI may grind for a while but hardly anyone has put the current stuff to work, yet.   We will be feeling the benefits of what is released right now for a decade to come.   I am working on a very rudimentary application that will use ML at work and it won’t come out for 12 more months, and it hardly does anything but make the most obvious decisions 10m times faster than I can.   But it’s going to fundamentally change our labor model.    

There are regular folks applying amazing technologies that go way beyond content generation.      

The tech may grind but the application of that tech is barely getting its feet and should run hard for a decade.

That’s what prisoners say. You are so conditioned to it that you prefer it.

Look at all those ports I’ll never need

We should have had USBC 20 years ago.

So, a chart?

I will RTFM after literally anyone else does.

Old person thanks you

The corporations are people too!

I am missing something. Where else would you install Windows but the HDD? (I haven’t installed windows in 20 years so I don’t know)

Yep. My first interaction with GPT pro lasted 36 hours and I nearly changed my religion.

AI is the best thing to come to learning, ever. If you are a curious person, this is bigger than Gutenberg, IMO.

I agree with everything you say and I am all about the way that you captured the dysfunction of the political apparatus and its inability to deliver for a price and on a date. I think my argument is that that’s exactly why the government should not be in charge of this stuff. It should not be political. I don’t think there’s any way to avoid billboards in space, but at least we’ll be able to finally get out there.

Ship it!

There is a reason we moved this to the private sector. Govt bureaucrats can’t get out of their own way and every project triples in cost, with no single person calling the shots to get the job done. Govt cannot keep up with the pace we need.

Boeing is hot garbage.

SpaceX has a shit face, but they are incredibly competent and effective at iterating their way to space.
