You specifically said BitTorrent. Do you know how that works?

Wait, you think all YouTube content is available in torrents?

If you skip the first part of stupid motorcycle videos, I’d say yes. It’s long but it goes into detail.

You’ll be able to save websites as NFTs! Yay!!!

Everything an LLM outputs is hallucinated. That’s how it works. Sometimes the hallucination matches reality, sometimes it doesn’t.

Audiobooks for the deaf? Excuse me?

I should know, I’ve been a software engineer for over 20 years and an engineering manager for over 10. I’ve promoted many engineers.

I don’t know what L4 and L5 map to in your company, but usually the gap between levels widens the higher the level. It’s much easier to go from entry-level (recent graduate) to mid-level, than from senior to staff. The skills required to make that jump are much harder to acquire, there’s less opportunities to put them in practice and a lot more dependencies on external factors you don’t have control over.

That’s traditionally called “promotion”. So they’re not promoting employees anymore?

There’s very few people on the internet who I trust enough to give them complete control of my browser. Randall is definitely one of them, probably the top one.

Spam away sir.

Yeah, that middle row works incredibly well on its own, but he needed to add some geek angle or it wouldn’t be xkcd. :)

Must be years without launches.

I like explainers, so I want an explainer for the explainer.

No, really, I need an explainer for the explainer. I got lost mid way through…

Now in English please.

Brilliant! This is one of those things that when you see it, it seems so obvious that you wonder how nobody thought of it until now. But it takes someone like Randall to pluck it out of the space of unexplored ideas and present it perfectly.

Not really, relativity plays no role here. It’s classical Newtonian physics.

You should read the whole article. It’s really not that long.

Yep, I wish everyone thought like that.

Yes, in spite of all the efforts decade after decade there has been no solution. Sometimes it was close (like when Arafat and Rabin shook hands) but any progress was always destroyed by the extremists on one side or the other, or by outside interests.

I don’t think there’s a solution. External pressure will hopefully stop this escalade, but the conflict will persist.

Loved the video. Is that you?

Please share.
