That is the BEST feeling. When our daughter made friends with the kid across the street: perfection!
The real impact of LLMs will be that we’ll all have to remember how to write software with a very low memory footprint.

Gonna start scanning Trulia for all those panic sale brownstones now that the rich people are leaving New York 😂
Quebecois are truly the masters of cursing.

My kids: Dad. Dad. Look what I can do.
A real-life case study in anonymous internet harassment and insider threat: I must sadly retract my endorsement of Kevin Crawley, as I have recently learned he is a Kiwi Farms member. I believe he may pose a safety risk to his colleagues, or even to his employer.
