It would be awesome if someone had been querying it with the same prompt periodically (every day or something), to compare how responses have changed over time.

I guess the best time to have done this would have been when it first released, but perhaps the second best time is now..

Yeah, can we please just stop talking about him?

Like, especially for things that have absolutely nothing to do with him..

Exiting with a cool ~$9m. Not too shabby.

And since he's been there since before the IPO, he's probably done pretty well for himself, regardless.

Most scripting languages are interpreted, not compiled. It's not a criticism of them, but it is a tradeoff that is good to understand.

It seems like you are the one who is conflating terms like "script kiddie" with "scripting language" and adding some negative connotation that isn't necessarily implied.

Scripting languages are usually easier to learn, have simpler syntax, and abstractions that hide complexity. These make them easier to get started in, but the downside is they are generally slower (performance-wise) than their compiled counterparts.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scripting_language

A scripting language, or interpreted language, is interpreted at runtime, rather than compiled.

It is not derogatory, and is simply a fact about languages like Python and JS.

Long-distance hole-punch

Yeah, I figured.

I didn't mean it as a critique of what you were saying, and certainly not as an insult to you, but rather as a disappointed critique of American city layouts.

You must not live in the typical American city, where it's completely impractical to go grocery shopping that often.

I'm impressed you were able to get this past the content filters. A week or two ago I was trying to generate some silly pole dancing images with DALL-E and it would not cooperate.
