Why do all these idiots behave as if they knew where the future is?

If it's about all the achievements they've read about and seen in games like Civilization, real-life doesn't quite look like that. Though in some sense these games, though good, have kinda simplified and made degenerate the understanding of the progress by many people. Similarly to what Soviet school program did, but in a more persuasive and pleasant way.

There's no tech tree. There's been plenty of attempts at any breakthrough before it actually happened. Suppose this "AI" is to some real future AGI what Leonardo's machines were to Wright brothers' machines, even in that case there's no hurry to embrace it.

If he thinks he's looking at a 90% achieved tech tree point with powerful perks, then his profession should probably be that of a janitor. Same day schedule, same places to mop up, you know.

So many people completely miss the mark when it comes to AI and coding. It's great for code reviews on code you wrote yourself, and it can be handy when you're developing code for a domain you don't have much experience in.

What it is not good for is writing code on its own. Not if you want your code to be efficient, or performant, work correctly, or even compile.

So, I use Github to host some very simple projects, such as my world map running with Leaflet.

Is there another place that would let me easily and freely do this?

Same, i need to find a new place as I use it as basically a free HTML blog and tracker for my table top games.
