Yep. Companies will soon find out that their savings in dev time has an increase in BA and testing.

Most companies have done away with QA. They are having their cake and eating it too.

This is unique only to the Software field. Manufacturing of physical goods learned long ago there is no cheating physics, as much as the executive's and finance people wish that were the case.

Did they though? Boeing.

I didn't say all, and I knew someone would chime up, good job. If you want a healthier view of companies with their QA groups, Food Safety, and medical devices are two where I've at least seen signs the culture is still active and healthy.

In other words, they need more experts on enshittification.

I'm never sure how much faith one can put into such benchmarks but in any case the optics seem to shift once you have pass@2 and pass@3.

Still, the more interesting comparison would be against something such as Codex.


Not at the moment, but a release of Mistral 4 seems close which likely bridges the gap.

Mistral Small 4 is already announced.

MOE but 120B range. Man I wish it was an 80B. I have 2 GPUs with 62Gib of usable VRAM. A 4bit 80B gives me some context window, but 120B puts me into system RAM

Either some q3 or since it's a MoE, maybe a REAP version of q4 might work (or could be terrible, I'm not sure about REAP'd models).

Neat! Even-though they should probably use a custom type rather than the generic "Stream" to communicate that this needs to be closed. Or remove the try-with-resource block if closing is not necessary.

This way it leaves some room for misinterpretation.


Thank you for the suggestion!


Yeah... it's difficult enough to find engaging conversations with people I do know. If you want to talk for the sake of talking, there won't be a shortage of possibilities. And if you are sociable enough, people will do so.

But outside of these parameters? It's very slim picking.


Or AI will double down in the Dunning Krueger effect, where true mastery not only diminishes, but people collectively take low erfort AI answers as the baseline truth.


Oh yeah, that's a fun exercise. And it comes with a mermaid generator as a bow on top too.

Did pretty much the same in Java at university.


Musk didn't found Tesla, he invested into it when it was small. Musk brought good marketing and gave the people who were declined at GM a platform. So far so good.

It was a success. He got more investment, built factories, became market leader. Built an industrial stack where there was none.

And gradually he got crazy. Dodgecoin, Nazi gestures, thinking he has to safe humanity because left radicaly are destroying it.

Instead of cutting down on costs, Tesla insisted it is the only electrical car and priced it as such. Not to mention the cybertruck disaster everybody saw from miiles away.

Meanwhile, the Chinese have the best electrics with the currently best industrial basis for production and cheap resources.

Musk has too much money, got lucky with an investment and started becoming complacent. The rest of the story writes itself.


Gemini 2.5 Pro gets the joke and has by far the best answer:

This is a wonderful logistical puzzle!

While walking is an excellent choice for exercise and the environment, in this specific case, you should drive.

Here's a breakdown of the two scenarios:

# Scenario 1: You Walk

1. You walk 50 meters to the car wash.

2. You arrive, feeling refreshed.

3. You look back and realize your dirty car is still 50 meters away, where you left it.

4. The car remains unwashed.

# Scenario 2: You Drive

1. You get in your car.

2. You drive for approximately 10-20 seconds.

3. You arrive at the car wash with the car.

4. The car gets washed.

Conclusion:

To achieve your goal of washing your car, the car itself must be present at the car wash. Therefore, driving is the only logical option.

Enjoy your sparkling clean car
