When you thought your content was decent, but LinkedIn disagreed.

@JessePeltan I was wondering why my car is 6kg lighter now than when it was new.
English
I tried to warn everyone that lithium can’t be recycled.
Once you put it inside a battery, it disappears from the universe forever.
English
The price of batteries has skyrocketed 100x.
This is because Earth has run out of lithium. It’s all gone forever.
Jesse Peltan@JessePeltan
Remember when the problem with EVs was the cost of the battery? Yeah. Not a problem anymore.

Slash commands are super irritating. It was cool for IRC. It is not cool for AI TUIs. It's too human centric, delete it.
English
@burkeholland @debs_obrien Yeah I think good managers and leaders ensure their colleagues have the support and time to grow without being micromanaged. Maybe both individuals and managers don't quite grok the idea that it is a force multiplier after an initial investment.
English
@danielppotts @debs_obrien True, but it is their job to make sure you have the bandwidth to build these new workflows and learn these new tools.
It can’t be “in addition” to all the tasks people already have on their plate.
English
@burkeholland @debs_obrien It is not on leadership to tell you how to do your job.
English
@burkeholland @debs_obrien It's actually really easy. Just commit to using the tools for everything you do. It might take a little longer at first but once you have momentum it pays dividends.
English
@burkeholland I don't get this - why add slash commands for everything when simple natural language should suffice? I can't do deep research and then go ahead and implement in a single slash command. I was hoping the UX would go the other way, I don't want to use / at all.

@BrettReif Have not played with hooks yet. I don't think they are in Copilot CLI atm, but they have landed in @code.

I am at present running ~10 agents.
The secret is to just completely stop caring about the code.
It's OK. You can let go now.
Burke Holland@burkeholland
I call baloney on your “10 agents running at one time” workflow. Unless you just have zero intention of shipping any of it.

Australia’s First #AUKUS Class Submarine: What Should We Call It? @AUKUSforum
Some obvious contenders:
HMAS Crocodile Dundee — because nothing says “stealthy underwater predator” like a hat and a knife.
SSN Vegemite — guaranteed to make allies curious.
Over to you…

@OzTeslaGuy I get it - this was my major EV concern prior to ownership, but once you own an EV the question doesn't really make sense. It is very rare an EV owner actually waits for their charge. I have saved so much time and hassle not having to deal with petrol gas stations.
English
One of the biggest arguments ICE owners give against owing an EV is having to wait to charge. “I can fill up in a couple of minutes, not have to wait 20mins”. OK, hypothetical - while you’re filling up, what would you do if the station attendant came out to you and said “I’ll give you a 80% discount, but you just have to wait 20mins to get it”?

@techAU If you can count it with your fingers, you're barely using it.
English
@jxmnop Not just software. Transistor count too. The allocation of die space on each of those chips for the GPU and associated cache etc are quite different from one another.
English
my understanding is that both AMD and qualcomm make chips that have ~equivalent performance to nvidia
but neither can write the software tooling that N provides, like CUDA
i get that it's complicated, but which part of the stack could possibly be so hard to replicate? are nvidia's low-level engineers really that much better?

@renew_economy House battery, two EVs, and a pool to 33c. And a giant three phase air con cooling the house to 22c while it is 32c out today. Zero grid imports. Too easy.
English
Peter Dutton defends #nuclear by claiming that rooftop solar cannot charge EVs and household batteries at the same time. How wrong and ignorant can you be? #auspol reneweconomy.com.au/you-cant-charg…

#swimming is such a cheat. In just 1.15hrs and 4.3kms(2.7mi) I burnt 1234kcal with no kicking. Eat whatever you want.
