Also, a lot of people forget that you don't need a cookie popup. apple.com or tesla.com doesn't have one. Plenty of others, but they're quite rare. I absolutely hate unnecessary cookie popups, e.g. when you're already si

Well, he has been aware of it for a long time, and made occasional tweets mentioning it. He has not been a huge bitcoiner, but I don't recall him being a sceptic.

The first claim isn't true, because Elon has been a bitcoiner for a long time. There was a huge Bitcoin hype / hubris at that time. Specifically, Saylor happened, and he convinced Elon and others that Bitcoin is the best reserve a

Are the cameras or other sensors different in HW4 vs. HW3? The compute unit might be quite easy to upgrade, but cameras probably aren't.

That's the proper way to accept BTC payments, with your own node, instead of using some third-party service.

He doesn't say that at all on the video. He refers to his experience in the industry in regards to other people making predictions. To be clear, he knows that FSD predictions were too optimistic, and that's why he says that AGI wi

It's fundamentally a different product. Vision Pro is about pushing boundaries in productivity and entertainment. It's the step above desktop computers or game consoles with large displays. You wear this device like headphones, wh

If that's true, it's the stupidest thing they've ever done. To start competing in a product category invented by Eric Schmidt and Mark Zuckerberg. This might be the final point on the story of how Tim Cook destroyed Apple. Ey

Sandstorm was a great idea, but in my opinion it was targeted wrong. It should have been a platform and marketplace for B2B SaaS, not B2C SaaS. Specifically, all the third-party services which typical web apps use could have been Sandstorm

Because it seems that LLMs have copied human behavior in this case, thinking that seahorse emoji exists, when it doesn't.

Doesn't this also happen in humans? I think a lot of people think that seahorse emoji exists, or think that it existed in the past (Mandela effect). This is an interesting case of "something should exist", but doesn't. T

There's also the mental state of the world report by Sapien Labs, which tells a different story: https://mentalstateoftheworld.report I believe this is more accurate, although it's not just happiness. They measure MHQ,

The much bigger issue is that it's the first time when you're required by law to install government software on your devices. It's breaching your private space and it's immoral and wrong. Private spaces, including digita

I'm not rewriting anything, this is called time preference, a well-known concept. High-% deflation happens to consumer electronics all the time. You get the same product much cheaper or a better product with the same price if you wait.

This is a fallacy. It's rational to buy stuff when it's cheap and sell stuff when it's expensive. Not the other way around. In other words, if the money gets suddenly more valuable, people would go on a shopping spree, which

It's simple game theory. If one player (government) has access to private information of all players (citizens), then it's not possible to keep the government from winning, i.e. becoming tyrannical. Losing privacy equals losing li

Yes, they can. Many countries in desert climates use seawater as their main source of drinkable water. Desalinating water in modern plants costs about $0.5 per cubic meter, or $0.0005 / liter.

Isn't the pollution exaggerated? Burning natural gas or methane is considered pretty clean, and produces mostly CO2 and water, which aren't toxic pollutants or a cause of breathing problems. That's why it's used inside h

I haven't read this book, but there are a few books with a similar theme where a digital intelligence spreads throughout the universe. This is a variation on the idea with a somewhat plausible mechanism.

Chill dude. You aren't supposed to read everything dead seriously in a thread about extraterrestrial signals. It's just a fun idea to think about.

Be careful when training AI models on unknown signals, or uploading them publicly on the Internet to be picked up into training datasets. It might be an adversarial data poisoning attack, which is designed to bias the model into servicing t

Religions show this anthropocentrism extremely well. In Abrahamic religions there's supposedly God whose sole purpose of existence is to be there to guide and save humans. How does that make sense? Doesn't he have anything else to

Wealth inequality is a good thing, but the cause of it matters. Was wealth inequality caused by theft and corruption, or by merit-based capitalism? If wealth is created and concentrated by capitalism, it doesn't cause social unrest.
