I subscribe to Disney when I want to see something specific and then immediately unsubscribe once I'm finished.


Just like I did for Fox One during the World Cup and then 4 months and $120 later I remember to cancel it.

Then I pay for a subscription for a tool to remind me to cancel subscriptions and forget to cancel that one too.

"clean room" with AI is impossible


Mermaid works great for fixed layouts like sequence diagrams and Gantts. For flowcharts, where position is king, it's bad.

I've tried using svg in my MD files but they get unwieldy quite fast. This is a great idea. My first reaction was - but what's if I need something more exact. But reflecting on it, I've realized that this relative positioning is probably enough.


Yea, it's hard to beat absolute positioning if you want something ultra-custom, but I'm hoping for most flowcharts, mind maps, etc. the relative positioning is enough to get what you want without fiddling too much!


Agreed. Next diagram I make I’m taking a photo of a whiteboard and letting AI figure out relative positioning


That sounds very cool :)

I think the Hugging Face incident proves that isn't as clear cut as you say.


They gave it access to the internet, so how can that incident prove it's not as clear cut?


Spoke like a true manager.


I can see how the author put some work in this article. But I can't handle any more AI speak, even more after spending the whole day talking to Claude. It's too bad - blogging has been dying (well, at least in decline) for half a decade, and AI might be the final nail in the coffin.

"You sound like a robot m" has a whole new meaning for me.

There are two fallacies in your analogy.

Segfaults are precise symptoms - they occur only when there's a memory issue. Autism isn't precise, is a collection of characteristics that manifest differently in each person.

Genetic is, for the purpose of this conversation, a precise diagnosis - means you carry parent genes that will cause the issue. Memory management isn't: what caused it? Code error? OS error? Processor? Is it a bad code path or a unexpected exrtenal state?

Finally, an analogy of your analogy: you measure someone temperature and it's 40C. You diagnose a fever.

Segfaults are fever, just a symptom.


The analogy is "just because most X are caused by Y, doesn't mean you can easily test for X by looking at Y"

I don't think your first point (how specific/precise are the symptoms of X) changes things, and I think your second point reinforces the analogy rather than weakens it. Most segfaults are coding errors and not OS or hardware errors ("look for horses, not zebras" / "SELECT isn't broken"). Even good medical tests have false positives and false negatives

> Most autistic people are autistic because of genes they got from their parents. This is why autism often runs in families. Much less commonly, other factors can play a role, but usually in combination with genes from parents.


Are we still talking about testing for autism?


I should have known better than to try an analogy here

Commercially it's better to have AMD support CUDA which can help break Nvidia soft monopoly.
