That dream has been dead for years. BTC is all about investment now.

> This is a HUGE deal because handling crypto through a brokerage would basically neuter it. Nah, it's still an equity. People don't buy pizza with their Microsoft stock, but they still buy Microsoft stock. Even crypto fanatics

Crypto assets are illegal if you try to dodge taxes. Or, as a trading institution, pretend that you have no duty to follow tax laws on reporting client transactions. They're no different than equities if you follow all the laws. This a

Maybe it's because HN is more like Reddit than Twitter/Threads, so there's more reasons to care about it. And a lot of Redditors probably came to talk about it here, some because their favorite subreddit was on strike. Also t

I basically followed this approach but my paper kept getting rejected from the conference which really put a ceiling on my hope; ended up quitting the PhD after just under 5 years. Second try the conference paper got accepted right away. Ad

Are you sure you're not just experiencing some other difference in manufacturing, like a difference in the matte finish?

The point is that some use toxicity as a deliberate weapon, and that weapon can now be encoded into the LLM via training by those same aggressors. This multiplies their reach with minimal effort.

> The non-industry people reviewing Zelda have 4 options, 7/10, 8/10, 9/10, 10/10. Did you mean the industry people? Plenty of user reviews are 1/10. It's the industry guys that are always rating stuff 7+

It's not about American or European. Where Americans can reliably take public transit the whole way, their thinking would be the same as the Europeans you describe. It's just about how a car leg compares to a train leg or a bus le

Very odd to count the private vehicle to public transit as a transfer on the same level as public transit to public transit transfer. Once this is pointed out the observation is almost banal.

It's simpler than this. You made them look stupid, so they want to get rid of you. Blaming you for the current mess is a start.

Maybe someone is trying to make a disinformation bot. (half-serious) I mean as far as uses for LLMs go that seems to me a pretty realistic one. Mass quick propaganda with little effort. Go for immediate impact, doesn't matter if people

P.Eng is not a degree. You get it by writing a pass/fail ethics exam for the local regulatory board after completing an actual Engineering degree (BASc/BEng), and paying yearly dues. P.Eng is not required for most engineering acti

You would recommend working at a AAA game dev company? I've heard the work-life balance is terrible... Not sure you would even have time for a side project.

"You agreed with the majority. 18%. <Confusing insufficiently explained chart.>" That could have been presented better. Is it trying to tell me the majority of people are "wrong"?

> The US is unique in that (thus far) its massive deficit spending has been offset by growth That's not unique either. The UK had massive debts in its history but outgrew them. Or were you not considering history?

> US’s unique ability to essentially endlessly deficit spend This is not unique to the US, nor even unique to countries. Almost all countries deficit spend endlessly, which is fine as long as it's offset by economic growth. And that

Twitter is used as a one-to-many platform though, and I as a user (one of the 'many') can derive value from subscribing to what are essentially blog posts or announcements. I can ignore the chatter if I want to. Reddit is all abou

First, that is certainly an interesting way to bring up the anti-mod wedge the pro-Reddit-admin side are trying to push. Divide and conquer, right? Second, this has been and always will be about the inexorable enshittification of Reddit tha
