At some point in the early 1900's, someone poked holes in a punch card to create the first "computer code." This has been pretty universally accepted as a bad idea.

@dataandpolitics I literally just logged into twitter for the first time in years to see if you had any GA thoughts. Glad to see you're leaving this hellsite and let's catch up in a (hopefully better) new world :).

Hey @stkbailey! I recently read your article on Airflow's problems stkbailey.substack.com/p/airflows-pro… and was wondering if I could grab a few minutes of your time? I'm working on an OSS Airflow abstraction and wanted to discuss it in comparison to some of the points you made :).

A glib line I have said for years: the first AI designed to disemploy programmers was called a compiler. It worked very well and caused explosive growth in programmer employment.

@jfischoff @zachweinberg I guess if it’s a problem you could find a company that’s based closer to you or move closer to where the company is based? I’d imagine where this is a bigger problem is multinational teams/hyper distributed

@zachweinberg I used to travel once every three months and I don’t think my wife would agree with the fair trade part. That said, I completely agree with the second part. There’s just no perfect answer to this question. Every choice will have trade-offs.

i find that GPT4 acts as a cognitive energy augmentation. you tire less easily trying to wade thru drudgery. it’s not smarter than you, it’s just seen all the common failure modes ever and knows how to debug them

AI tech is creating entirely new creative workflows. NeRF's are 1 example I'm particularly excited about, & a company called @LumaLabsAI makes capturing them insanely easy. 🧵 Thread breakdown of workflow

@GergelyOrosz So I guess the conventional wisdom of "cut once and cut deep" no longer applies

@nikillinit I bet there is already someone who has used chatGPT to summarize a letter that was also written by chatGPT

can’t remember who said it, but someone said GPT is going to expose how many nonsensical writing exercises exist in the world that no one actually reads They just exist for the purpose of creating friction (cover letters, grant writing, many types of applications, etc)

Holy shit. GPT-4, on it's own; was able to hire a human TaskRabbit worker to solve a CAPACHA for it and convinced the human to go along with it.

@isvictoriousss @QuinnyPig If I am a business with my money in a mid-sized bank and I find out that if my bank fails I can be SOL for months without any of my capital, I’m immediately moving to a “safe” bank like JPMC. If every business does this we will have a run on every midsized bank.

If SVB depositors aren’t made whole by basically Monday, I fail to see how there isn’t a run on every non-strategically important bank in the US banking system.

Company accounts invariably have more than $250k in them; it’s where payroll comes from, as the first priority. All SVB’s customers did was “put their operating capital in a bank.” If banks that aren’t basically JPMC come to be viewed as uncertainties we’ve got problems.

@carterforva This is 100% false. The bank has assets. It will take time but depositors will be made as whole as possible.

@bricegramm @GergelyOrosz That seems to just be saying that they created a new bank to move the accounts to while they liquidate the bank. It's not saying "the money is gone here is your 250k insurance", unless I'm misreading.

I less than 24 hours, Silicon Valley Bank closed down: taken over by the US FDIC. Things are to get bad for tech: starting w startups/scaleups that did not manage to get their money out. There will be tech companies struggling to make payroll & pay vendors next week.
Gergely Orosz@GergelyOrosz

There’s a bank run starting at Silicon Valley Bank. If this keeps at it, it will be very bad for tech. By design, no bank can*immediately* return *all* funds. But they don’t need to: as its unlikely all customers would demand it the exact same time. Except in a bank run.
