Custody is inevitable with human valuables in a society. At least for the last thousand years.
So PMs aren’t safe because you need to…understand customer pain points?
Buddy, that skill is what PMs that are any good at their job spent a lifetime perfecting.
Rather, PMs aren’t safe as managers could just ask the agent to find the problem worth solving and then go solve it. But that takes us to a rather different world.
Turns out that there are quite good reasons to have a centralised currency after all. Who would’ve known.
Which is a completely different context than harvesting.
How is “250 k trees” a measure of tree density?
First time hearing of number of trees as a measue in forestry. In scandinavia we use hectars (100x100m). There’s also several different m3 measurements (with and without bark), that is used along with timber quality.
Finland has trees in billions. Still google should follow the laws and hand in the right permits.
You sit in the sofa. You want a glass of water. Maybe later.
Suddenly you’re moving to stand up. What made you do it?
Where does our thought originate from? Do you control it?
Quite often I feel like my mind is pretty much doing next token prediction also. Unfortunately.
It talks to that vain and insecure feeling that many of us have deep down.
Interestingly, unlike instagram the LinkedIn business model has nothing to do with it. It’s built around b2b sales and professional recruitment.
Isn’t it funny how Freud, and probably earlier thinkers, have suggested exactly that the mind is layered like this.
Sure, but that’s not a feasible solution for end-users, or people who hasn’t got all the free time
Is there some way to jailbreak your tv and run som open source os on it? Or something like that?
Not exactly sure what I’m after, but the problem is acute and widely prevalent, so there has to be some solution.
Not entirely unlike XKCD 1958 [0]. "I guess it's just that most people aren't murderers"

My guess is just that they are quite serious about user testing the manuals. 3-4 iterations and you're good to go. Many companies would never imagine that you could test manuals.
If everything considered 'user hostile' on this forum actually was, the world economy would look very different. People love going to IKEA.
Clear and interesting names is extremely good customer experience. Most companies name their products straight from the ERP system, creating incomprehensible codes that sounds like they come from Star Trek.
Ikea has pioneered so much within service design (design beyond the actual product). The in-store journey, the self-assembly, the assembly instructions, clear naming, clear product display, in-store restaurant experience. The list goes on.
After Ingvar Kamprad retired, he continued travelling the world to do store inspections. Full-day walkthroughs that started in the morning at the loading bay and continued throughout the store. Everything was inspected and a list of follow-up actions was created for the store manager.
Either point out weaknesses in the study, or dubious funding behind it etc. Or just stick with saying that you prefer tea.
What if someone reasoned similarly regarding hydrogen bombs? It would not be considered a serious argument.
Though, Altman has said that something like the IAEA for AI is needed.
What problem is that a solution to? Is there a problem with someone owning it, in that case: what?
They’re apertures; symbolically things emerge from them.
“…but that’s really all a butthole is, an aperture”

Tuffing is “tough guy”, somewhat appropriate
Isn’t the whole point of HTMX philosophy to question whether you need interconnected components with shared state? Most apps are doing crud on a database at the end of the day.
In my home town the local steel plant has been connected to the district heating systems for half a century. This is extremely mature technology and widely used in parts of the world where heating homes is more important than cooling them.
Sure, people want a personal human answer. But not as much as they want the correct answer.
Also, I think that we want to communicate with a company (Human or AI), and not a person, quite often. As you’re supporting a business transaction, not making friends. There’s a certain anonymity that comes with the business transaction. I wouldn’t ask for a refund from a friend.
Maybe the human has been reading too much ai generated text and got influenced by it?
Always difficult to define a year exactly. Obama a/b-testing campaigns was definitely a step on the way.
Good point. Future historians looking back will likely consider 2015/2016 to be the point when we entered the social-media-epoch. Both Brexit and Trump where mainly social-media-driven phenomenon.
Agreed, surely politicians are good at aligning to what's popular.
A certain type of people thrived in 1970's East Germany too, saying to themselves that it was for the greater good.
Not painting it any way, just asking. I'm in the EU btw, we're likely heading in the same direction from what it seems.
