It was good while ago, but last time I bought a car I just did bank transfer. SEPA transfers are entirely free. Was kinda amazed that they just handed me keys when I showed them the receipt from my own online bank...

I have long questioned the mantra that software needs more investments or even produce positive returns when it gets it. Just look at what many of these big companies with untold resources and investments have actually produced in recent ye

Don't LLMs still have to interface with whatever system allows them to do things? Or are they really given free range to do anything at all even stuff no one considered?

Both spammers and google's mail is in my spam box in gmail... Both messages are very similar... And google's contain the classic urgency baits. Not being able to receive email and so on...

My big question is. Why has the company and their development process failed so horribly they need to use LLM instead the app? Surely app could implement everything LLM can too.

So wouldn't it then be fairest to punish kids with high income or high wealth parents? Say set median household income. If parents make double this the score is automatically halved. If they make half it is doubled. Same on gross wealt

To me grades sound like easiest thing to tutor for. Especially if homework is involved. Even basic editing and feedback before submissions could make absolutely massive difference.

Pure lottery for all slots? Seems that it would be fairest possible alternative. Anything else being less fair.

On other hand planes are really not designed to be crashed into things. Only for limited impacts. So we might not have right comparison for relatively thin and aimed to be light structure being impacted by bulkier object.

Sounds like there is need for decent singular interface for bunch of expert systems. Sadly I think everyone is so deep into locking their own thing down from others that this will never happen.

I wonder who can give tasks. And how do they combat potential abuse cases. Surely there is lot of tasks that can be exploited for more nefarious purposes. Or just simply exploiting those that would do the tasks.

What I fear is that early or even current steps of this process is replacing parts of the code or all code wholesale. With as broken or just slightly less broken code. Albeit the way it is broken could be different each time. So problems ar

You do not put your resources in danger unless you are actually ready to commit to it. And I mean possible loss of them and then entering to much hotter war.

They are the fascist. They are the private companies getting in cahoots with the state for their own gains. It was always about money and thus power for them. Never about freedom.

Cleary they need to get AI which has not accepted those to rewrite it. That is the easy and fast solution these days. Or at most find a person who has not accepted tos do that.

It might be improved and changed in many ways. But I have zero doubt it would not lose in court any argument over copyrights. Most reasonable people would tell that it looks way too close to original. And that would probably be enough.

Basically yes. Well apart when it comes to our wages and credit we get. At least if we are responsible and try to pay it back. But everything else is just numbers. Stock markets, commodities, gambling, collectibles. real estate... Everythin

At some point it becomes better option just to take the money you get paid back and instead of loaning it out again buy something... Anything else really... And then it gets worse.

Makes you really think about the true productivity. If these companies have the beyond cutting-edge unreleased models so best possible tools shouldn't they be able to poach just a few most important people for cheaper? And then those p

I have long since found the VC model for open source questionable. If you are not selling popular enough direct enterprise support what is the model to actually make money. Take ruff, I have used it, but I had no idea it even had a company

Well only to certain point. When the rivers will naturally be too hot. You can start making them even hotter and it does not matter anymore.

I think that started with Bush and continued with Obama. Who with his financial donators still walk free after committing mass murders.

I fundamentally agree on statement that rents are more expensive than mortgages. As capital is involved and landlords want premium on capital. Still, things can go either way. And well renting is lot more flexible and less risky. So there i

I am more leaning towards them simply having infinitely more money than sense. So they keep throwing it at anything that looks like it could be something. Well same goes for Google...

The size of these companies make be doubtful of retail being able to fund them. There being enough retail investors with enough liquid funds who are willing to jump on this. Lot of retail is in various funds. So those doing active managemen

I find derivatives on stocks extremely weird. I do get idea of primary market with goods. That can be useful, even there secondary market might be reasonable. But once it goes beyond use by primaries maybe it should be banned. So you should

I feel like AI and "tech" has normalised billions way too much. So even as millions are really a lot we don't even think about those anymore... Crazy crazy world.

I believe we should do away with limited liability as a concept. Companies would get lot less investments and lot more scrutiny if every stock holder was criminally held liable as a class for any crimes they commit. Lot of people would simp

When I think about it I start to ask question what sort of reasonable person would even get involved in the top political leadership? Especially in USA on both sides. It feels entirely select to those who can manage the absurdly hostile env
