   I'm going to lump together proprietary and for-profit software a little because I rarely see exceptions: Proprietary / for-profit software is made that way, yes. There's no other way you can do it, given the incentive landsca

   I've seen this sentiment on the left. I think the author just phrased it a little oddly. Sometimes called "pink capitalism" or "rainbow capitalism", where a company will show the rainbow pride flag for Pride Month,

   I heard the convincing argument that AI CSAM is bad because it means you can pass off real CSAM as "Oh maybe it's AI though". They don't want to let GenAI give cover for something bad. So maybe the strong argument agains

   Network effect is killer. "better" would include having more than 3 billion people already on it. Maybe the EU or China will crack down on it. A single company shouldn't decide who gets to talk to half the world. If that comp

   I thought Tar had an extension to add an index, but I can't find it in the Wikipedia article. Maybe I dreamt it.

    Isn't there still a problem that desalination produces brine, which is a pollutant?

    I hate that. If I live in the country, my car spies on me. If I live in the city everyone spies on me. One value I agree with the libertarians on is, I just want to be left alone.

    Plug-in hybrids are a wonderful middle point on the Pareto frontier. Wikipedia lists the 3rd-gen Prius Prime at roughly 3,500 pounds curb weight, and the Tesla Model Y at 4,100-4,600 pounds, I assume depending on the battery it's equip

    I did unplug my GPU to save 30 watts, but... 2 watts is equivalent to driving a Prius Prime 0.155 miles per day on battery power. So there's that

    Yeah. Actually, as I read it, I'm not sure if the robot is running WebRTC or not (In my comment I assumed it was) But yeah it would be much more predictable for everyone if the robot didn't use WebRTC or the fancy logging library,

    Oof lol. Sometimes I yearn for the Haskell or Idris style of programming where a dependency can do nothing harmful or stupid without me passing in permission. Then I think about having to pass in thread handles and file handles to logging l

    Maybe they need something that works without root and IP space allocation. I like WireGuard and use it myself but it is a bit of an installation compared to binding a port

    His SDF probably puts out a depth buffer, so with some effort (shadows might be hard?) you can just mix it with traditional polygons. The same way raytracing and polygons mix in AAA games. He's using the SDFs to fill a space sort of li

    Today's experts are the novices of 40 years ago, and today's novices will be the experts in 40 years. C and C++ don't require static analysis, and it's difficult to set up, and so most of us slide down the incentive grad
