Sorry, my wording was very unclear. I was referring to the LLMs having a small but non-zero chance to actually get good enough to replace senior devs.
You are right though, chances for the average junior dev to reach senior status are much better than for LLMs to reach that stage any time soon (if ever).
They might, but it does not seem likely to me and is definitely not guaranteed.
Do you think things will get better with JD Vance in charge?
Notably absent… the explosives.
Not my area of expertise, so please tell me if the idea is complete garbage. With that being said: Theoretically, could the LiPo Battery that’s already in there anyway be turned into an explosive payload by intentionally overheating and puncturing it on impact?
Sorry to hear it. I hope you find some way to get out of there soon.
I wish I had the money to become an expat.
Do you have any job qualifications that are in demand? That might open doors into other countries without needing a lot of cash up front.
Im wesentlichen das hat Grote1Pimmel damals auch behauptet.
You did not say anything nebulous, someone else in this thread did. Sorry that got mixed up.
Also, looking at another one of your comments I guess I have to take back the part where I claimed “every single time, without fail” people would not deliver an actual explanation of their point.
Are NFT-haters upset that art is being sold at all? Or are they upset about the delivery system?
I don’t have a problem with selling art. I don’t have a problem with people using NFTs if it really makes sense for them.
I do have a problem with people claiming NFTs will solve this or that problem and without fail, every single time when you ask for details about how that is supposed to work and be better than established ways to solve the problem you get either more nebulous claims that don’t mean anything or some variation of “I don’t understand it, but it will somehow still work, just trust me bro”.
Why not both?
I’ve sold some photos as NFTs 🤷♀️, and I’ve bought some art from well known people like sabet and ame72.
You did not sell photos or buy art as NFTs. You might have sold photos and bought art and also given out/received pointers to the receipts as NFTs.
Proves ownership that is much more difficult for scammers to steal.
How is it more difficult? A scam almost by definition makes the current owner perform some action to unwillingly give something away, why would it be harder for scammers to make victims perform actions that give away an NFT than any other electronic good?
You know how when you get scammed or defrauded there are systems in place to roll back the fraudulent transactions? By using NFTs (or anything else based on a blockchain) you throw away those systems and make it literally impossible to bring them back. For what gain exactly?
Banks and insurance companies can use them.
Why would they? It might maybe be slightly cheaper, because some infrastructure costs are externalized, but that does not come anywhere near being worth the headache of all your confidential customer data being public. Sure, they could anonymize it and have an internal infrastructure translating it back. That would negate the cost advantage and make the whole system more complex for no gain at all.
Reduces costs in proving ownership as well.
Please elaborate, because that is not anywhere near detailed enough to discuss it seriously.
… doing them wrong falling for a scam.
No need to apologize, and sorry that I apparently made you think an apology was required.
I wanted to build on and expand your point, not contradict it.
A lot of people are still just not familiar with the terminology surrounding all things trans.
If you just say “trans man” many of them don’t go into a weird mental gymnastics session to justify their prejudice, they just go “which one was that again?”.
I’ve been there myself a few years ago and since I learned have explained it to several people who couldn’t be further from bigots, they were just not in much personal contact with trans people.
Diese Scheiß-Zeitumstellung wird mir mal wieder eine Geburtstagsstunde klauen.
Alles wäre SPD auch knapp unter 5 % und FDP doch wieder drin. Aber ja, nah dran an alles.
In some people it causes the body to releases enough internal happy drugs that it is worth the discomfort.
Not really an answer to you, just writing it here in case anyone else interested is still reading along:
I looked up some numbers and apart from the practical challenges of making a battery “go boom” in a controlled way it seems like the energy density to even make this a hypothetical option just isn’t there. Even the best LiPo batteries don’t quite reach 1 MJ/kg while gunpowder has ~3 MJ/kg, and numbers only go up from there for more modern chemical explosives.
