You may need to work on your jokes :)

Have you considered the possibility that, if you have 2k bookmarks, this isn’t necessarily a self-hosting issue, but rather a bookmark hoarding issue :)

If you’re asking these questions, you’re way ahead of the game and will be fine. Cats a pretty independent.

I think you’re under the impression that you will make choices for your cats; in reality, they will make these choices (and more) and you will have to live with it as their human :) you’ll find out whether they will allow you to use horse bedding, for example.

As kittens, just stick to cat food (no milk!). Generally wet food is considered healthier but perhaps more expensive. I feed my cats 2x/day out of canned wet food. You’ll have to see what they like. Generally stinkier is better. Cat food has is fortified with nutrients they might struggle to get otherwise so if you want to feed them something else like chicken as the basis you will need to supplement it with specific cat multivitamins.

If they’re indoor cats, a pair is generally a good idea so they have company. Also make sure you set aside 15 mins/day at least to play with and engage them. Generally I find my cats don’t play with fancy toys, rather they like tampons, strings and cardboard boxes.

With the vet, again it’s your call and you’ll figure it out with experience. Every vet clinic is different. I would start with the most convenient one, so that you’re incentivized to visit regularly. Your vet will give you a lot of information. Make sure to get vaccinations (edit: and spayed/neutered especially if allow them outside. Also I believe outdoor cats tend to kill a lot of birds/rodents unnecessarily so I think some cat owners put a bell on their cat collar but I don’t know).

You’ll probably want to keep them in a carrier in the car, unless you want them peeing in your car. It’s also possible they get car sick.

Cats tend to love high places, so if that’s something you can offer that’s great. Otherwise they may hide for the first few days and just come out at night so it’s fine to leave food out for them (edit: also if you choose to feed them kibble, make sure they have plenty of access to water as they can get dehydrated otherwise).

Ah you must be the new hire at my firm, welcome!

I think the post is about the state of agentic coders in 10 years, not the present.

Then the student could just ask the AI to simulate a thesis defense and learn answers to the most likely questions.

The funny thing is, they would actually learn the material this way, through a kind of osmosis. I remember writing cheat sheets in college and finding I didn’t need it by the end.

So there are potential use cases, but not if the university doesn’t acknowledge it and continues asking for work that can be simply automated.

Perhaps some people can’t afford it. I have the luxury of paying for weekly therapy but its probably one of my biggest line item expenses.

Yeah, it’s like me never having alcohol before and walking into a frat party as a freshman. Sometimes it’s better to come prepared.

People who track performance (like METR, a nonprofit) indicate that progress is, if anything, speeding up. Most people’s use case is so simple they can’t detect the difference. However for cases like complex problem solving, agentic tasks, etc you can in fact see significant progress happening. This should be concerning if you think the world isn’t ready for labor displaced by LLMs.

I think this may be a skill issue on your part.

I’m curious about the scientific consensus continually undershooting. At a certain point, if you’re always updating in one direction, shouldn’t you overcorrect a bit?
