Or we could try to not live and consume resources at the scale of the average US household (let alone the accursed millionaire and billionaire classes).
Plenty of stuff to go around actually

I mean, you could do away with package managers altogether… Just always include “use standard library components only” in every prompt.
Added bonus, your program will be very secure because it would very rarely be affected by any publicly known CVEs.

Likely translation: scaling their models is hitting diminishing returns, while the business world is slowly realizing the math ain’t mathing and they’re not suddenly 10x more efficient and profitable than before LLM adoption.
So Sammy and the others need a plausible cover story why capabilities aren’t evolving at break neck speed anymore, to prevent their beautiful bubbly bubble from crashing down on them

It sounds plausible enough, considering we apparently have physicists out there using lead from roman archeological artifacts in their contraptions 😅 https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/ancient-roman-lead-physics-archaeology-controversy/

Bruh, this is literally like scientists scavenging metal from shipwrecks that predate the era of nuclear bomb testing, cause they need steel that isn’t contaminated by nuclear fallout for certain measuring equipment 😵💫😵💫
Great analogy for the shit we’re currently saturating our digital world with

Let me put it this way:
My grandparents built a brick house in the early 1950’s in northern Germany. My parents built on that foundation and doubled the size in the late 1980’s. Air conditioning was not a thing back then. You just didn’t need it at all.
For decades this house has kept a relatively cool 24-25°C (~75°F) during peak summer months. Just due to the way it was built.
That hasn’t been true for the past ~10 years anymore.
And it’s the same with almost all German infrastructure. Our traditional ways of building things are not fit for the frequent high heatwaves we’ve been experiencing this last decade. Even hospitals are generally not AC’d except for maybe ER and operating rooms. It’s fucking miserable

This seems very different to high-security data centers…

Oh thank god

Although to be fair, these numbers are most likely in Won and whatever AI wrote the article forgot that there’s other currencies than USD

Also FUCK! The “Careers” entry in their footer only becomes a clickable link when you’re viewing the Korean version of the page 😭😄

Reminds me of that island where everyone was suddenly a millionaire because of the massive amounts of guano (bird shit) they were exporting

WTF… Are the numbers in this article accurate?
“Based on 2026 profit forecasts, that translates to average payouts of $460,000 - $477,000 per worker this year across SK Hynix’s 35,000 staff, with projections approaching $900,000 per person next year.”
So either the execs are getting billion dollar bonuses or everyone at SK Hynix will just be fucking loaded 😄

Should have started playing The Rains of Castamere and started locking all the doors

What’s the saying again… :“The purpose of a system is what it does”

The thing that scares me (and why I’ve stopped using it): my brain automatically reaches for the shortcut whenever I would have to do deep thinking/planning.
I have ADD, so getting my brain to focus and work on a task is not an easy feat to begin with. Now I’ve found myself multiple times a day unable to will myself to think about a problem but rather deferred to Claude. It’s seriously fucked up.

Just wear rubber boots and gloves and leave the electricity on

Good thing they forced everyone into their cloud service and EoL’d on-prem installs so they now have a nice captive user base to abuse 🙃
Poor sod seems to lack the courage to sneak into a cargo hold
Noice! Now gimme gimme
