Also have you seen the people coming out of majors these days (and by that I mean my own graduation class of ~2010)? Uni access expanded so much that just graduating doesn't mean that much anymore. Especially for career government offi

Makes sense, I also imagine the incentives were different. These young grads had no incentive to lie while local gov officials had plenty. The only one would be for the grads to take bribes from the local gov officials, but if the central g

Imagine if the US misses bond payments and defaults because of bureaucracy problems (not lack of money). It would completely explode the interest rates of any loans they have and completely tank the US government for years.

Unfortunately that proposal seems to be kinda dead. React is a fundamentally flawed framework because of the lack of this feature. It inverts the responsibility of any non-primitive prop by putting the burden on the parent element instead o

Not to the same level as back then, the closest thing would be Apple refusing to implement good PWA integration and Web Push Notifications (forcing people to use Apple Push Notifications which only works in Safari). PWAs are still (mostly)

Who said anything about that being censorship? I am saying that scandal brought it up to public attention, the Cambridge Analytica scandal was just the triggering point because: 1) It allegedly had russian influence 2) It involved Trump and

It was definitely the Cambridge Analytica scandal and then subsequent media-rampage any time any social-media company touched politics (directly through censorship or indirectly through algorithms). That was when it became a mainstream prob

Well browser standards were pretty much gimped by microsoft during the IE5/IE6 era, so from 1998 until around 2010 there was no progress on standards and Microsoft was actively trying to prevent web applications from becoming a thing i

I heard nvidia is gimping consumer-grade cards to not be good at LLM training, is this true? If so are they gimped only for training or also for running LLMs? I guess the limited amount of RAM is also a way to limit the cards.

You are implying ion drives I assume. Ion Drives work by accelerating particles to _really_ fast speeds (like fractions of light-speed) and use that to generate thrust. Meaning it requires almost no "fuel" but requires A LOT of po

I think those values would make it viable for a few routes, but what really matters is long term savings. Like if they can fly supersonic overland and increase fuel efficiency more than traditional sub-sonic jet engines. To me it seems if t

Born outside of Sweden and living in Sweden now, you have a few misconceptions here. Scandinavians (or at least the Swedish) complain quite a lot about public services and government, so many discussions I have end with "you know that

Given that most employees are underpaid at very-early stage startups with stock options it seems deliberate fraud is not common at all. Besides monetary compensation the "have a failed startup in the CV" argument doesn't seem

It feels the frauds are at least using non-traditional funding strategies, Theranos funding setup was kinda crazy.
