Are these achievements you’ve personally experienced?

I find that to be an issue of maturity (focusing only on the climax and not the process). In Japan, where I live, the culture has a greater appreciation for the context & process, not just the moment of victory. If you examine the conse

I thought ‘interoception’ might also be appropriate in this context.

The government in the US is for people (corporations).

Maybe this is why they NEED AGI (does it come with a soul?)

Fair enough, I didn't know his position was that extreme.

DHHs take is definitely not 'sane' and quite extreme. However Ethnic Cleansing has a particular connotation that's more severe than forced deportations. That's what I mean by histrionics. I believe it's a virtue, bo

DHH is definitely a polarizing figure, but this kind of hyperbole (Ethnic Cleansing) definitely harms progressive causes. I get that some people feel strongly about fairness and justice, but I would like them to care just as much about effi

I think Anthropic will continue to fine tune value extraction vs value generation going forward. Their moat will continue to grow with more users subscribing to claude and uploading all their data into the system, but that competes with the

I remember when everyone was ordering Mac Minis. "How many mac minis you got" down at the local pub. Funny times.

This is the kind of handwringing over $100 ethics I come to HN for!

Apple has been stingy with RAM in consumer hardware. RAM prices will continue escalating, some analysts say into 2030, and this will make it more difficult to build next generation phones with sufficient memory for meaningful ML workloads.

Scripts and packages moving from steamos- to holo-. "holo" is the internal name for the base OS layer. Pulling the product brand out of the plumbing is what you do when the plumbing is going to run somewhere the brand doesn't

Yes? Read about their water rights lobbying and lobbying against plastic recycling regulations. Our descendents have to deal with Coca Cola’s externalities. You can’t see these second order effects immediately, which is understandable, but

I think there’s two separate things here that you seem to be conflating - absurdly rich and unethical. I’d argue Newell is mostly the former; though many or most billionaires align on both those metrics.

I think his company has created far more value and goodwill than his networth indicates. True juicers like Bezos and Musk are different.

Perhaps I’m close to the end of my lifecyles. Meditative bliss feels more intense than sense pleasures for me, sense pleasures feel dull in comparison regardless of my sensitivity.

Everything has a lifecycle, including juggernauts like Google. Looks like the end user hasn't been the focus for a while.

Interesting post sharing the author's experiences. Personally I've experienced deeper bliss from meditation than from any sense pleasure, but it is not always reliably accessible in every sit.

What I can see from this release is that SteamOS is being converted from device firmware into a general-purpose distribution that happens to boot into a game launcher. Quite a bit of a version jump in the dependencies as well.
