Readit NewsVery well written title though.
There are always attempts in every language to replicate the convention over configuration and batteries included approach of Rails, but they all lose steam pretty quickly.
I just don’t think there is an alternative to Rails. It’s a giant project that is actively developed for over 2 decades now.
Another personal example - my sister is highly educated, has two PhD and I consider her the smartest person I know. Years ago we were discussing something and I mentioned that one of my dear friends is seeing a psychiatrist. My sister scoffed... And I was taken aback to say the least. How can someone that smart and that educated dismiss someone who is basically a Doctor and spent years educating themselves in this field. After talking through it I realized that if you have robust social life, myriad of friends, different friends to talk to about different things (as well as family) you just might not need a psychiatrist to talk to... Just an entirely different kind of life/existence...
Well, if you’re ever in Arizona, let’s grab a coffee and talk about the old country.
My friends from there, would go to their friends' ice cream parlour, grab some coffees and a beer at 8 PM. For the next four hours, they would do nothing but tell funny stories and laugh until they couldn't laugh any more. These guys literally spent 4 hours laughing together.
They did this the next day, and the next, and many more until I had to reluctantly go back to the airport and fly back to the PNW.
Nothing even remotely like this has happened since last going back. Every time I think back to it, it seems like some impossible other reality.
It's really like a different reality.
Coffee before work? Sure thing. Another coffee after work? Absolutely. Drinks in the evening? Definitely.
The thought of not seeing your friends for a month or longer is just absurd over there. If you don't see them regularly they're not your friends. The whole culture is built around spending time with people, and I only realized that after I left.
I enjoy living in the US, but man, I do miss having such a social life.
Regarding its “learning” - it is still a model that needs data. The best you can expect is it will take actual UI sessions (as in users interacting with the website) for specific tasks to build its scripts, and as with any current “large” model it’s not going to update in realtime based on user input alone.
One of their former engineers gave a statement that LAM is just a marketing term and nothing like that exists.
If all the selling points are in future tense at what point can we call it a scam?
Edit: also the founder’s previous gig was a crypto scam that also promised AI on the blockchain
Turns out that it is just an automation script and it cannot deal with site redesigns or CAPTCHAs.
Edit, just found they have made this claim also which simply doesn't exist at all:
> The R1 also has a dedicated training mode, which you can use to teach the device how to do something, and it will supposedly be able to repeat the action on its own going forward. Lyu gives an example: “You’ll be like, ‘Hey, first of all, go to a software called Photoshop. Open it. Grab your photos here. Make a lasso on the watermark and click click click click. This is how you remove watermark.’” It takes 30 seconds for Rabbit OS to process, Lyu says, and then it can automatically remove all your watermarks going forward.
Combine that with one headline-grabbing (apparent) suicide during a deposition, and we're now all primed to notice these deaths and attribute intent.
A month later another whistleblower who was in good health dies suddenly and unexpectedly.
I don't think it's surprising to think that this combination of events is extremely unlikely.

In fact, time perceived as volumetric rather than as a length is the specific example he uses and includes the actual research. There are extremely specific cases like this where it does in fact hold up but the effect is extremely minute, to the point that it's difficult to even measure properly. In most cases it doesn't hold up at all. But these very tiny barely measurable cases are often used as evidence for frankly nonsense claims so it's important not to extrapolate this to "Japanese blue and green are the same word so Japanese people must be colourblind", which is where people often take this.
Like, yes, my language has a ton of words for all possible familial relationships, for example different words for maternal and paternal uncle, but that’s because familial relationships are important in my culture and that’s reflected in the language.
Language is the reflection of culture, not the other way around
Did she ask you to cure this tumor? Did she ask you to post about it?
This is a common story in disability and chronic illness communities -- a partner gets so fixated on the illness they forget the human afflicted with it. The ill partner goes to the grave wishing their partner would stop fighting and start just spending their remaining time filling their lives with joy.
It leads to especially dark places when they don't succeed.
I wish him all the best, but don't lose sight of the human suffering the illness and what they want.
If you had a feeling you could do more, would you not try?
When you’re not personally involved, it’s easy to see that this might be misguided, but when living through it and experiencing daily fear of loss of your partner, it’s extremely difficult to think logically.
I have seen this multiple times and it’s always so unbearably sad.
