  • I am not the one who made the initial claim, but if you want numbers: about 2 % of sunlight is a shorter wavelength than UV-B or about 70 W/m². If you want the same irradiance from a lamp, all you need to do is get closer, unless the lamp is really weak. 5 seconds is simply nothing.















  • So you physically read what I said and then just went with “my bias against LLMs was proven” and wrote this reply? At no point did you actually try to understand what I said? Sorry but are you an LLM?

    But seriously. If you ask someone on the phone “is it raining” and the person says “not now but it did a moment ago”, do you think the person is a fucking idiot because obviously the sun has been and still is shining? Or perhaps the context is different (a different location)? Do you understand that now?


  • When was the last time you tried? GPT5 thinking is able to create 500 lines of code without a single error, repeatable, and add new features into it seamlessly too. Hours of work with older LLMs reduced to minutes, I really like how much it enables me to do with my limited spare time. Same with “actual” engineering, the numbers were all correct the last few times. So things it had to find a way to calculate and then figure out some assumptions and then do the math! Sometimes it gets the context wrong and since it pretty much never asks questions back, the result was absurd for me, but somewhat correct for a different context. Really good stuff.
