And yet somehow despite all this, nearly everyone is living a much better standard of life than they would have 50 years ago, land we all far excited the kings of 200 years ago. We are rapidly progressing due to our extradoniary ability to work together. Complaining that this beautiful system of cooperation isn't working as fast as you imagine does nothing.

What system ever worked better? What do you compare how good standard of living should be to? The past? Well guess what, we are all hell of better off than the wealthiest 100 years ago. Do you just imagine a much better world than we have now and decide that you have somehow developed a system to get there and not enough people want it? Wow, you must be a genius to have outsmarted everyone across all cultures!

I'm gunna guess no. You don't have an almighty better system, you've just fallen for the trap of thinking that nothing is connected. You think you can have all the benefits of systems you don't like while having none of the connected realities. You are like a child putting whiteout all over their homework to make there be no questions so they always get 100%. Eventually, you will grow, realise people are trying their hardest, we have ways to improve and we are working on them. What doesn't help is spoiled teenagers complaining that they have to do chores while saying their parents are mean because they won't always buy them every new video game. Burning everything down that gave you everything you live won't help. Ever.

Imagine if you will that there are 5 items to be had, everyone wants them. Everyone except for the evil rich man has 10 tokens. The evil rich man has a billion tokens. Right now people are willing to sell an item for 4 tokens. One day the people kill the evil rich man and spread out all his money evenly. There's still 5 items! They just go up in price! The rich man's blood doesn't create more items! It isn't complicated. It's very simple.

The same people that think energy use is a bad thing are the people that think that if we pass out all the billionaires money, then we can all have way more value. They are teenagers or people who never learned anything beyond what they teach in middle school. They think their gut instinct must be fact, so they spew it over and over. I'm sure you're not one of them.

Yeah, some people did, but nearly every discussion on here was full of 95% idiots screaming about how we need to pretend like biden is so incredible because we have to trick the undecided people into living him because trump is going to resurrect Hitler and march everyone to the depths of hell.

And you are one of those "every problem on the planet is the fault of someone else other than me so I can do whatever I want with no regard for it's affect on anyone else" people. Stay away from us if you can't be bothered to carry your own weight, you just drag down people who actually give a shit about something other than their own immediate selfish gratification.

Good luck, you are talking to people who think that if the billionaires passed out all their money to everyone, then we would all be able to afford way more stuff. They have no idea that more cash doesn't mean way more products appear. Supply and demand is such a simple concept, but to them, it might as well be rocket science.

If this is something you feel strongly about, then please stop eating factory farmed meat and animal products if you havent already. It is something you personally can actually do. It helps, and it will genuinely make you feel better. You may not have much power, but using the power you do have to help the team you claim to be on instead of the other team is a massive step forward.

There were just too many idiots for too long that were yelling down any discussion of Biden's obvious ineptitude. Any time anyone would bring it up, they would just jam the "BoTh SiDeS" buttons on their keyboards. They completely fell into the trap of trying to crush discussion, and now we are left holding this senile old man as a candidate. It is almost certainly a lost cause at this point. Harris has half the payout of Biden on most sites where you can gamble on the results, and she isn't even running. If we get anything out of this mess, I hope it is that the new generation of democrats coming up can see how toxic and self-sabotaging it is to try and shut down any conversation they dislike. All those people who have been shouting "bOtH sIeDs" so much their keyboards started to bleed should feel like shit right now. Your pathetic attempt to crush discussion hurt you and the rest of us. Discussion = good. Even if it's uncomfortable. Remember it.

The most impressive peacock is the one with the longest, most cumbersome tail. This is because it is able to survive and thrive despite this massive handicap. Think what the world just saw, America is being led by someone who can barely talk. America is ruling the planet despite this. The world just saw the most badass peacock flaunting its gloriously colorful booty. That's why Biden crushed it.

Yeah, don't blame the murderer, blame the person who you think made the murder do the murdering. It wasn't OJs fault, it was the rap music and violent movies!

Absolutely. In theory, at least. In practice or in reality is a different matter altogether. Don't let that stop your feelings or hunches, though.

No way trump is up after that debate, Biden absolutely crushed it.

I don't know about your specific issue, but I have found that it helps quite a bit to often start new conversations. Also, I have a couple of paragraphs explaining the whole idea of my project that I always paste in at the beginning of each conversation. I've not been doing anything terribly complicated or cutting-edge, but I haven't come across anything yet that Sonnet hasn't been able to figure out, although sometimes it does take me being very clear and wordy about what I'm doing and starting from a fresh slate. I've also found it helps a lot if I specifically tell it to debug with lots of logs. Then I just go back and forth, giving it the outputs and changing code for it.

I was mainly doing python with gpt4, but now im working on an android project, so kotlin. Gpt4 wasn't much use for kotlin, especially for questions involving more than a couple files. Sonnet is crushing it though, even when I give it 2k+ LoC. I'd say I've done about 2 months of pre-llm work in the last week, granted I am no professional, just a hobbyist.

For programming it is Sonnet 3.5, there is no remotely close 2nd place that I have tried or heard of, and I am always looking. I personally don't really have any interest in measuring them in other ways. But for coding, Sonnet 3.5 is in a distant lead. Abacus.ai is a nice way to try various models for cheap. Really, some sort of agent setup like mixture of agents that uses Claude and got and maybe some others may do better than Claude alone. Matthew Berman shows Mixture of Agents with local models beating gpt4o, so doing it with sonnet3.5 and others of the best closed models would probably be pretty great.

Then again, you don't use a human husk as a leader generally. These are unusual times.
