I'm presently printing a new design, it's new fan blades for my little personal clip-on fan. Unlike the original design which is a pretty standard 3-blade design you'd expect on any fan you buy from a store, this one is based on a (signficantly smaller) Noctua case fan. My goal is to get more airflow with less noise.
(Hmmm, after putting this in here realized I had the blades going the wrong way, so I redesigned it significantly)

The journalists who write these articles I don't believe have actually tried to use ChatGPT to write code for them in any real context, because they'd quickly realize how limited it actually is.
@frameworkcomputer Just saw the video about your 16" model. I don't know when it'll be, but you'll be hearing from me when it's time for a new PC.
That's a good point. By the time the boomers reached adulthood, the system was already collapsing. It definitely had some really good times, but boomers were born after 1948 by definition, so they were only 20 by 1968, and while there was a short period of prosperity after that, it wasn't all that long. There was a worldwide multi-year recession in 1973 and continuous massive economic issues from then onward, so there are a shocking number of parallels with what happened to the millennials.
Found the zoomer.
Anyway, joking aside, my point isn't really changed anything by who raised the millennials. Hypocrisy is hypocrisy, and if as a group we aren't doing anything any better, if we're not acting any differently, then we aren't in traffic we are traffic and we are part of the problem. And we are a massive part of the problem. Governments elected by boomers have balanced budgets. No government elected by millennials has balanced budgets.

To be fair to the boomers, the exact same thing is being done by the millennials. There's a reason why 75% of the federal debt came to be since the millennials reached voting age, and it's not because they demand austerity and responsible stewardship of the nation's finances.

I asked an ai how to programatically hide the legend on a thing, and it said "thing.showlegend = false" which was hilariously stupid since that thing didn't even call it a legend.
Censorship should be owned by everyone who participates, and nobody has a monopoly on it.
AI and robotics are quite conservative, and that's it's weakness.
Even now, AI is impressive but once you get off the beaten path it quickly shows it's limitations, it can give you something that's already been found, but higher level reasoning, creativity, and dealing with stuff it was never trained on show quickly the limits of even the best AI. It's a very well built demo, but anyone who has ever worked in the real world knows how well built demos don't automatically produce good real world results.
Robotics have multiple issues. You get the robotics you build, for the purposes you build those robots for. Anyone who has tried to use AI for troubleshooting quickly realizes that it only knows what it's been told, so it isn't terribly useful once things aren't as expected. It's also quite rigid, so while well read it often has problems letting go of ideas it likes. Besides that, humans are still more dexterous than general purpose robots and stronger than most of them too. There's a reason why so much industrial work is still done by humans despite machines being good enough for much of the work for decades. Humans are more flexible in numerous ways.
The dream of a society where nobody works has been on the menu for quite a few years. I remember seeing an article from the 1960s that could have been written in 2023, but while authors can dream and produce with nothing else, at some point somebody somewhere actually needs to accomplish something so you have to stop dreaming and actually do. Then all the constraints of the real world reveal such tools to be useful and important, but not all encompassing. The limitations of our tools don't seem to matter in abstract, but in practice they are the most important thing.
