Yeah I’ve seen that before and it’s basically what I’m talking about. Again, that’s not “printing a 3D house” as hype would lead one to believe. Is it extruding cement to build the walls around very carefully placed framing and heavily managed and coordinated by people and finished with plumbing, electrical, etc.

It’s cool that they can bring this huge piece of equipment to extrude cement to form some kind of wall. It’s a neat proof of concept. I personally wouldn’t want to live in a house that looked anything like or was constructed that way. Would you?

The LLM worship has to stop.

It’s like saying a hammer can build a house. No, it can’t.

It’s useful to pound in nails and automate a lot of repetitive and boring tasks but it’s not going to build the house for you - architect it, plan it, validate it.

It’s similar to the whole 3D printing hype. You can 3D print a house! No you can’t.

You can 3D print a wall, maybe a window.

Then have a skilled Craftsman put it all together for you, ensure fit and finish and essentially build the final product.

It magnifies the worst in people.

What year is it?!

My kid hasn’t ever seen an ad on any streaming service or any web page, ever. And I block ads via DNS. We don’t have any kind of live TV service or cable so they literally have just never seen any ads, ever.

Sometimes if we’re out at a restaurant, some TV is playing live content and an ad runs. My kid is shocked like it’s the first time he ever ate sugar.

Glad I can keep that toxic trash out of my house and out of his life.

Very expected. It’s fine. I’ll come back at 10 times my previous rate. And you’ll thank me for it. Fucking chads.
