Oh! You meant Moore’s Law is asymptotic!?
Yes! That is key to the joke I was making.

When I say Big O, I’m talking about the slick jazzy anime about rejecting true love and living with heartbreak because we believe a lie about our own superiority. This is always true, no matter what the discussion context. If I happen to say anything remotely relevant to mathematical Big O, that is just a deeply weird coincidence.
Fantastic summary. For anyone wondering how to get really really valuable in IT, this is a great write-up of why my top paid people are my top paid people.
Write more robust code.
Sure, I could read a book about best practices and Big O…but…What if we just table the idea for a few iterations of Moore’s Law instead?
Real world experience can help, but what we have now is also too stupid to recognize when it’s succeeding or failing. It just greedily gobbles up inputs and feedback indiscriminately.
There’s currently no way to know if the necessary advancement, to advance independently of humans, is 2 years and 2000 years away.
Even so, nature tells us that advancement probably isn’t coming at all. It’s not needed, so long as there are billions of humans available to partner with.
We’ve made their point…a person can survive fireball by making the three death saving throws. Exactly how a fine pile of ash and dust can!
Makes sense. Google has been replacing skilled engineers with tail-eating AI regurgitation engines, which are getting progressively worse as they eat their own shit.
But I’ve been told those regurgitation engines are about to get really smart and replace all skilled labor.
So maybe it’ll be fine.
Or maybe, as we’ve already started to see, more and more useful stuff will only be available via the Internet wayback machine, until they kill it.
Silence! Or we may wake it from “Normal” mode!
The arbitrary standard for the censorship in Fediverse is extremely bad.
“The pirates code… Be more like… guidelines.”
As a Perl user who won’t shut up about it… Yeah. Yeah, that’s pretty fair.
Their out too git us!
This is great.
If I could make one change, there’s so many funnier languages that could have been Esperanto. I would have taken a shameless jab at F#, myself.
So the older video games told me the truth! - that the slightest contact with any body of water is instantly fatal from any height.
I’m actually a beautiful woman. They will both have to agree to substantial surgeries before they agree to play me.
David Cross and Bob Odenkirk, with a made-up face surgery scene mid-film to explain the change.
Earth, obviously. Or rather, where we think we left it…
I would assume the nutrient paste is the people who did poorly at managing bot farms, gave too many unexpected answers to the AI tests…
Yeah. I’m revising my funeral plans now…
If I can get one of those touching slideshows, but with three good friends MST3K-ing the whole thing, I’ll consider my life well lived.
Oh shit! So is mine!
Oh. This is seriously cool. Thank you.
