yeah, the fact that it was as simple as npm run db:push really strikes me that this was a timebomb waiting to happen. Lucky it happened to the AI agent and not some poor jr dev at the end of week 1.

this makes no fucking sense. have you ever tried to get google assistant to play a song? You want that to be your entire experience operating a computer?

the more i read the worse it gets. tbh very little of my concern has anything to do with the AI agent.

it's been around for a while, it's a popular feature for banks and credit card issuers so you can "save time" when you call them. Anyway it was a horrible idea 10 years ago when they introduced it and it's an extraordinarily horrible idea today when we have voice duplication tech just out there.

was gonna ask how llms deal with it but i bet these sorts of errors are common enough that it ends up being understood as the same word

Yes I know how taxes work. Do you know how much money some people make?

And what are we even arguing about? I said the top tax bracket is in the 50% neighborhood and youve been trying to pedantically incorrect me.

Oh actually i guess youre a different redditor

You also have to pay federal tax. And if you are in the top tax bracket you are earning somewhere between 700k and infinity money so what you are taxed on in that bracket can be almost nothing or it can asymptotically approach 100% of your earnings. In any case the top federal tax brackets is 37% and the top california tax bracket as you said is 12.5% which so happens to add up to 49.5%. Plus all the other stuff like social security and whatnot.

Idk why trump's name is in there, it's not like this behavior is out of sorts for any colonial government. We go around breaking treaties as if it's the same as breathing air.

kid in the center looks like he's 9 months into being a jacked 27 year old short king in 10 years. It's now 6 years later, I wonder how he's doing.
