What is America offering that China isn’t? Hard to believe this administration would give them a fair deal.

If you make Roman/Nazi salute than your opinion is not worth considering. Either you’re doing it because you approve of an ideology that will always fail, or you lack the contextual awareness to form an insightful opinion.
Edit: judging from your comment history, if you posted an image for yourself doing the salute I would say the latter. But we all know you’re too ashamed/scared to share an image of yourself doing that “gesture”
Where do you think the Nazis got the salutes from? And for that matter, where do you think we got the word fascism from?
Ehh, it is not that our dopamine receptors are fried. We are all wired to seek out information. But most of what we get is starving us for actual useful information so we have to wade through an endless sea of slop. The “instant gratification” is largely us not wanting to deal with the bullshit and get straight to what is useful.
Anecdotal: traveling to the smoky mountains and rented some bicycles. Owner said rentals are down 30% compared to this time last year.
Don’t bother with this guy, @ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works has done some mental gymnastics to justify starving the Palestinian population. So it really isn’t surprising they would want to vote for the most ghoulish option.
When requirements are “Whatever” then by all means use the “Whatever” machine: https://eev.ee/blog/2025/07/03/the-rise-of-whatever/
And then look for a better gig because such an environment is going to be toxic to your skill set. The more exacting the shop, the better they pay.
Literally the opposite experience when I helped material scientists with their R&D. Breaking in production would mean people who get paid 2x more than me are suddenly unable to do their job. But then again, our requirements made sense because we would literally look at a manual process to automate with the engineers. What you describe sounds like hell to me. There are greener pastures.
The stock market makes no sense to me.
That’s because “The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.”
Maybe it is because I started out in QA, but I have to strongly disagree. You should assume the code doesn’t work until proven otherwise, AI or not. Then when it doesn’t work I find it is easier to debug you own code than someone else’s and that includes AI.
Why would you ever yell at an employee unless you’re bad at managing people? And you think you can manage an LLM better because it doesn’t complain when you’re obviously wrong?
A junior developer actually learns from doing the job, an LLM only learns when they update the training corpus and develop an updated model.
It’s usually vastly easier to verify an answer than posit one, if you have the patience to do so.
I usually write 3x the code to test the code itself. Verification is often harder than implementation.

When LLMs get it right it’s because they’re summarizing a stack overflow or GitHub snippet it was trained on. But you loose all the benefits of other humans commenting on the context, pitfalls and other alternatives.
Pepper Ridge Farms remembers when you could just do a web search and get it answered in the first couple results. Then the SEO wars happened…
I know not to expect better but as a parent this is just beyond unacceptable. If I was a parent of one of those lost children I wouldn’t know what I would do with myself other than be more radicalized
