From X to *. Like a puckered asshole. How long until it’s named AsterX?

I find myself asking the same 3 questions when considering whether or not to use an AI tool.

Is it a straightforward task where I can save significant time with a tool?

Can I verify the results?

If the tool AI makes a mistake, or if I am not thorough enough in verification, is the risk of failure low?

I’m a firm believer is using the right tool for the right job. Most of the AI’s people are using are not designed for the things they are using them for, and I don’t see many practical uses for generative LLMs. I will acknowledge that there are purpose built AIs to be used as a tool, but even then most of them tend to do a below average job. We’re also seeing a lot of algorithmic driven models being labeled as AI, similar to calling something a “smart” device.

Also run the tap on your sink until the water turns hot, then start the dishwasher.

A majority of the gunk removal happens during the pre-wash cycle. Hot water greatly helps with this.

It’s not coming up in a search in Jerboa. Do you have a link?

It becomes less problematic over time. Without learning how to mask or developing coping skills, life will just be harder in the long run. My career would certainly be less successful if I did not develop coping skills. Burnout can be avoided by finding healthy outlets and enforcing personal time to relax and recover.

We all have to wear masks, my guy. It takes a lot of effort to not be “the weird guy” at work.

I had a bad habit of making “boredom noises” for years until someone pointed it out and I had to start working on it. Turns out the technical term is “verbal stimming” and it’s definitely tied to either of those.

Hearing about it is one thing. Seeing someone put it to the test and showing the extent of the surveillance and data harvesting is another.
