Amateur. Opus 4.6 this afternoon built me a startup that identifies developers who aren’t embracing AI fully, liquifies them and sells the produce for $5/gallon. Software Engineering is over!
A bit of humour doesn't hurt. But if this crap gets upvoted it will lead to an arms race of funny quips, puns, and all around snarkiness. You can't have serious conversations when people try to out-wit each other.
They're still out there; people are still posting stories and having conversations about 'em. I don't know that CmdrTaco or any of the other founders are still at all involved, but I'm willing to bet they're still running on Perl :)
Wow I had to hop over to check it out. It’s indeed still alive! But I didn’t see any stories on the first page with a comment count over 100, so it’s definitely a far cry from its heyday.
For the unaware, Ted Faro is the main antagonist of Horizon Zero Dawn, and there's a whole subreddit just for people to vent about how awful he is when they hit certain key reveals in the game: https://www.reddit.com/r/FuckTedFaro/
The best reveal was not that he accidentally liquified the biosphere, but that he doomed generations of re-seeded humans to a painfully primitive life by sabotaging the AI that was responsible for their education. Just so they would never find out he was the bad guy long after he was dead. So yeah, fuck Ted Faro, lol.
Ack, sorry, seemed like 9 years was past the statute of limitations on spoilers for a game but fair enough. I’d throw a spoiler tag on it if I could still edit.
9 months ago the rumor in SF was that the offers to the superintelligence team were so high because the candidates were using unreleased models or compute for derivatives trading
so then they're not really leaving money on the table, they already got what they were looking for and then released it
The math actually checks out here! Simply deposit $2.20 from your first customer in your first 8 minutes, and extrapolating to a monthly basis, you've got a $12k/mo run rate!
You cannot out-astroturf Claude in this forum, it is impossible.
Anyways, do you get shitty results with the $20/month plan? So did I but then I switched to the $200/month plan and all my problems went away! AI is great now, I have instructed it to fire 5 people while I'm writing this!
