There is a safety concern using too small of a wire. Don't exceed about 10A with this cord. Lights and many single power tools are fine. An electric pressure washer or big miter saw is asking too much.
Lighting is one of the best use cases for a thin cord like this.
At 500' with a 16AWG cord you shouldn't exceed about 1 amp to have less than a 5% voltage drop.
You can get a Kill-A-Watt meter to easily see how much current is being drawn.

I used an 16/3 50'ft (which I thought 14/3) extension cord for my 15A pressure washer and the cord got so hot that the jacket becomes soft like going to melt. It could be fire hazard if I continued using that.

his other comment about "you'll just lose power" is asinine and just shows he doesn't know wtf he's talking about.. same power will be at the end of the cord, just a slightly lower voltage and slightly higher current.
pick the right tool for the job and actually pay attention to the specs before you hurt yourself our your family.
