I just farted

lol

What if I flip both at once?

Because you’ve come to the conclusion that “retirement in the US is a scam” evidently based on a few years of data in just your portfolio. Retirement savings is built over decades.

I’d be curious about your specific positions contributing to this graph.

JFC. Just buy a target date fund. This post makes it clear that you don’t really know what your’re doing so please do yourself a favor and just pick a target date fund like this (or equivalent if Vanguard funds aren’t available to you) and don’t mess with it until retirement.

If you want to take the time to learn more about what you should probably be doing, here are some resources:

• JL Colins Stock Series
• Bogleheads investment principles

Edit: Extras, as I come across them. Candidly, most will probably come from Rob Berger’s newsletter.

Good point.

Since the first time I heard about FSD I’ve been wondering why Tesla (or others) doesn’t set up a system where drivers opt-in (no opt-in by default) to sending anonymized driving data to help train the model. The vast majority of the time, it’s probably modeling OK driving. At least no accidents. But the shitty driving and accidents are also useful as data about what to avoid.

Maybe they’re already doing this? But then I wonder why their FSD is getting shittier rather than improving. One would think with more driving data, good and bad examples, would only help.

Been following this company’s development for over a decade now. I really want them to succeed but I have major doubts.

Yeah I’ve had to go back and fix (re prompt) some things like this in the past.

The headline is that it helps me code things far faster than if I was doing it myself. And sometimes saves me 100% of the work.

I used it the other day to spit out a ~150 line python script. It worked flawlessly on the first try.

I don’t know python.

Yeah, agreed. That’s not what I asked though.

This response is a bit of a misdirection since we all discuss shit that isn’t the most important all the time.

Given what I think I know about LLMs, I agree. I don’t think they’re the path to AGI.

The person I replied to said AGI was never going to emerge.

Are you assuming LLMs are the only way humans could ever try making an AGI? If so, why do you assume that?

It sounds hyperbolic but if you assume it will reach human-level intelligence and will have the ability to update its own code, you very quickly have something much smarter than us. Whether it will want to help or hurt us is an unknown. Whether we can control something that’s smarter than us (and getting smarter every second) is unlikely, IMO.

“You’ve chosen the wrong phone” is peak lemmy.

Second only to “ditch Windows, use Linux. I don’t care about your use case”.

Glad I’m not the only one. I read it 3 times and still don’t know what’s being said.

Is it still full tilt?

Looking at CDC graphs of excess deaths, it appears we’re back at baseline. That is, assuming I’m reading this correctly which is very much not a sure thing.

Okay 2 things.

1. I haven’t heard about any security issues with Rustdesk. Can you link to what you’re referring to?
2. It’s strange to see someone concerned about security recommend RDP for remote access when it’s a terrible idea to expose it to the internet. But maybe you mean to expose a VPN and then connect to RDP via that?

Edit: I see you have some info on the Rustdesk point elsewhere in the thread. I’ll read up on that part so don’t feel like you have to repeat yourself here.

No rustdesk but recommend RDP for remoting?

I’m confused on both recommendations.

Everything you suggest seems self evident because you supply the evidence yourself.

It should be obvious to anyone who knows the first thing about how cell phones work.

Remember, you replied to me. You seemed quite proud of your comment and all your links. Unfortunately you completely missed the point.

Plenty of good answers here already. Just want to add a funny anecdote.

I’ve had the same USB charging brick for years, using it for different phones throughout that time. When I check the battery settings when it’s plugged in it “warns” me that I could be charging at a higher rate if I plug into a higher amperage charger. Yeah… I know. I WANT to charge slowly. It’s gonna be plugged in all night, what do I care?

I’ve had my phone for a year, 165 charging cycles, and it says it’s still at 100% health. I do cap charging to 80% and that hasn’t been an issue for my day-to-day usage.
