This is inevitably going to get looked at by antitrust regulators, either in this administration (depending on how much Trump likes the leaders involved), or in the next.

What happens when the government raises one of its taxes or imposes a new one?

It’s basically OODA loop, which is itself just as descriptive of how people act and adjust than it is prescriptive. How else would you describe iteratively solving problems?

Depending on how you want to define “weapon” the actual offensive capability of the shuttle may qualify. It was designed to be able to capture satellites and return them to Earth. We have no evidence that this capability was ever used offen

The Biden administration created a coordinated censorship apparatus with the major social networks. They handed a guy a seven month jail sentence for posting a joke that Hillary voters could text in their votes.

Are you aware of the reachability gesture in iOS? I’d probably still be on my 13 mini if this feature didn’t exist.

The air temperature would rise near the heat source, and that hot air would rise in a plume and disperse, not seep out laterally.

Something smells wrong. You could dump a gigawatt into resistive heating and not see such temperature rises so far away.

My wife's hometown in China used to have two options to reach from Shanghai - high speed rail (top speed ~ 200MPH) that takes about six hours or a roughly one hour flight. Rail travel has stops and slowdowns in more populated areas tha

I don’t think you’ve been near a data center if you think noise pollution is a problem.

I’m a voter who prefers we establish rules that be followed rather than encumber every project with a lengthy community dialogue.

No mention of CAFE standards? How can you write this article without mentioning the policy that incentivizes larger vehicles?

What a brave new world where only machines possess general intelligence.

It could be the case that we’ve reached the last generation of frontier models that can be accessed by the general public. That eliminates a risk that Anthropic could be leapfrogged by a competitor. Now it’s a competition between products o

I lean libertarian but I can recognize the danger in having access to a machine that can craft pathogens to spec. A pathogen with a very long incubation time and a high fatality rate would be about as bad as nuclear war. Maybe we need to fi

I had forgotten how much time I spent with this software until I saw the screenshot. Thanks for the port!

I realized that should I end up getting laid off soon I won't have an unlimited token budget and for the workflows I've settled into it would be quite expensive. So I was exploring what it would take to run open models at home. Wa

Long ago in Linux if you wanted to listen on a privileged port (< 1024) you had to do so as root.

I'm enjoying it. It's wild to realize that I spent countless hours playing Theme Park when I was around 10 years old, and Demis had been a big contributor to the game when he wasn't much older. Also I don't really care t

They can't just build Apollo 18 and resume the program as if there weren't a 50 year hiatus. Imagine if your employer wanted to start using a software system it retired in 1972. What would you do?

Maine banning datacenter construction is is a bit like Texas banning lobster fishing.

It's very elegant. The first time we traveled domestically in China I kept thinking that my wife had to be mistaken, there has to be some kind of confirmation we need to show in order to board. But nope, it literally is just show up wi

Jared could have reached out to Everyday Astronaut and probably gotten his crew to do it just for the shoutouts on the official stream.

Risk tolerance is a value judgment, not an empirical fact waiting to be discovered. Competent experts could tell you how much safer you would be if you wore a helmet to drive your car. They can't tell you how much you should value that

I mean the design. They've changed the AVCOAT to be less permeable and altered the re-entry profile. One of the findings of Artemis I is that lack of permeability led to trapped gas pockets which expanded and blew out pieces of heat sh

It is a bit chilling to watch these astronaut profiles having just read yesterday about the heat shield issues observed on the prior mission, and that this will be the first time we can test the heat shield in the actual pressures and tempe
