Stuck in waist-high water in a freezing stream with night falling, Lydia Frere desperately churned through her options. Then she asked her dog to fetch.

27% of 8 hours is approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes. That's about right.
I Tried Pre-Ordering the Trump Phone. The Page Failed and It Charged My Credit Card the Wrong Amount

Let me sell you a Trump steak.
Maybe they didn’t know.

The vast majority of coding isn’t making something new, it’s using existing patterns and tools and arranging them to fit a specific use case.
I would argue that arranging something to fit a specific use case is making something new.
Ask any designer how difficult it is to get a spec sheet from a client and meet their expectations. We're expecting LLMs to suddenly solve this problem.
Llms may not be able to create a new framework or design pattern
Until they can do this, there is little threat to designers. There will be less grunt work, of course.
The sad reality is that code is just a form of language, and LLMs are good at learning languages.
This is debatable. LLMs are prediction machines.
What use is prediction when you are trying to code something new?
Only for a few, and only those who have a gift for it, which Paul claims he had.
and a bible that says not to have too much sex
I'm not sure what Bible you've read. The ones I've read make no claim to "not have too much sex".
Quantum Scientists: Hey, man, you just don't get it.
Hipster Artists: Hey, man, you just don't get it.

All analogies have flaws. If they didn't, they wouldn't be an analogy, they would be describing the very thing itself.
What’s not cool is shitting on a movie just because you didn’t like it or it didn’t make sense to you.
If you don't like or don't get a work of art, it is entirely reasonable to shit on it.

I wanted to give people a chance at remembering the reference before seeing the answer. The URL gives the answer.
I was confused for a moment.

Not all knowledge is inherently useful; some knowledge may lack practical application, relevance, or purpose, especially within certain contexts or timeframes.
Not all knowledge has application, the human mind has bandwidth limitations (ignoring capacity), knowledge is contextually sensitive, and some knowledge is actively harmful (e.g. misinformation, distraction).
More like: I crave useless knowledge.
Wait, is it the boat that ignores the spherical attribute or the entity that commands the boat?
Can an elf sail to the undying lands commanding a human built vessel?

IWTL how to Build an RF Amplifier
I want to build / design an RF amplifier that can boost the signal from an AMT-MW207 kit.
Design goals:
- Boost the signal a couple of watts
- AM signal
- 525 - 1605 kHz baseband range
I've been searching for RF amplifier designs but many of them are too big (10's of Watts), or are hard to implement. It's been difficult trying to find something that can instruct me clearly. I'll have to take into account things like impedances and the like.
I have an electronics background, so if you can only point me towards a book or other resource, even that would be helpful.
I'm going to be checking out 'Experimental Methods in RF Design', hopefully it can point me in the right direction.
Recommendation Request: Similar to Iron War
I just finished listening to Iron War by Matt Fitzgerald. I loved the descriptions of the history of the event, the history of each of the racers, and their future after the race. It helped me feel amped for my own exercise sessions. Are there other books like this?
Excluding Matt Fitzgerald's other books, of course.
Bioinformatics for Beginners
Maria Nattestad just dropped a new introduction to the field of bioinformatics.
Foundation skills for bioinformatics:
- Python
- Use the Command Line (e.g. Bash, scripts)
- Statistics - p-values, multiple hypothesis tests
Rosalind: Website for learning bioinformatics and programming through problem solving
I've used Rosalind in the past to learn about bioinformatics. I solved about 17 of the problems, which is about 6% of the problems on the site.
I think it gave a decent mix of guided learning and letting you figure things out on your own. I would say having some background knowledge in biology and coding would be necessary. It doesn't do a lot of hand holding, but there is some.
