Article seems to suggest if you make gains but lost them later you still need to pay tax on the gain?!

That's strange..

In America, the problem comes when the gain and the loss come in different years. If you make a big gain in 2024, but didn't pay taxes on that gain, then lose the money in 2025, they will come after you for failing to pay taxes in 2024 even though you no longer have the money in 2025. The lesson is to pay your taxes.

I followed Rob's work on this in real time, it was a master class in calling out a company with no value. He just continually laid out how numbers didn't add up, and laid out the inevitable conclusion. I had no idea about the threats, but I do know his wife had a baby while all this was going on.

This seems to be the growing consensus.

There is a very strange totally coincidental correlation where if you are smart and NOT trying to raise money for an AI start-up, you think AGI is far away, and if you are smart and actively raising money for an AI start-up, then AGI is right around the corner. One of those odd coincidences of modern life

This is very similar to the conclusion I have been coming to over the past 6 months. Agents are like really unreliable employees, that you have to supervise, and correct so often that its a waste of time to delegate to them. The approach I'm trying to develop for myself is much more human centric. For now I just directly supervise all actions done by an AI, but I would like to move to something like this: https://github.com/langchain-ai/agent-inbox where I as the human am the conductor of work agents do, then check in with me for further instructions or correction.

Has anyone figured out an elegant way to add front-end design to a process like this? Every implementation I see people use includes either vague references to front-end frameworks, or figma images. It doesn't feel like a cohesive design solution.

this sounds like a lot of money for what is effectively a programmable desktop smart speaker with a camera? I'm seeing like $100 in BOM?

I used this to teach high school students. Probably not sufficient to get what you want, but it should get you off the ground and you can run from there. https://youtu.be/86FAWCzIe_4?si=buqdqREWASNPbMQy

I tried switching to this a few years ago, but switched back to Obsidian. My problem was actually the strongest feature: the VS Code integration. Only about a third of my note taking is related to software development, so for me going into VS Code the other 2/3rd of the time was clunky. If 100% (or close to it) of your note taking is software related, this is a great product.

But 45% of companies don't regret replacing their workers with AI? You can't tell me that those numbers aren't a massive success story for AI vendors.
sputknick · 7 months ago
That number will likely go up over time. Probably doesn't reach 100%, but more than 55%

I like the concept, but I think a more reliable/less compute intensive way to implement it would be too use AI to call up non -AI data. I could just type in "some red beans and rice" and the LLM parses what I mean, and retrieves stored verified data.
