I can assure you that the minimal requirement to be in the in-group is being born there, but even that might not be enough if your parents aren't already well-integrated. A bit like trying to blend into japan - you will ALWAYS be the g

well at least climate disaster is actually happening and when in doubt could need _more_ attention. the depressing/frustrating part is people acting like "won't happen to me so why bother". I don't know many peopl

i think currently those 6-figure salaries are looking great for like most of humanity - I don't expect seismic shifts here. but there is a funny mechanic at play certainly: once some dev work gets cheap as a commodity, demand surges su

don't fall into this mental trap. you can get into recursion quite easily here, and figuring out what to prompt can start from simple general questions - and there is no need for a developer at all, aside from the current limitations

I‘d like to use midjourney via an API from my scripts, but the only way of using it right now seems to be via discord, or did I miss something? Seems like Dall-E is what I have to use for now :/

I‘d love to have a simple way of calling ReactDOM.renderToString() on my express server that does block to actually wait for API calls so that SSR‘ed HTML is populated. I am very willing to trade performance against simplicity here. Besides

I think this is purely a statistics problem. Like all breakthroughs are actually _discoveries_ of things that already do exist or mechanisms that can be exploited somehow. There is a huge amount of information flowing around us in realtime,

I assume that I am already exposed to months of prompting training now, and probably frame things differently than others on their first try? I understood that a huge success% depends on the input prompt as the context. In my case, just to

tbh you are correct right now, ... but: we came from not being able to make a sensible output to these riddles at all, now discussing partial logical failures while it "got" the overall puzzle. Vast simplification and slightly inc

There several reasons for that, but one key thing is that people do not, in general, desperatly dream of the „get rich quick“ to escape their life situation. A big share is simply well off, taken care of if there are problems, and live thei

Just for demonstration purposes: imagine we get rid of voting alltogether. Instead, a random representative sample of 1000 people is chosen from the population, for some congress, for a year. They rule during that time. Some rules cannot be

My point is that people should not have to serve or suffer for the system, but the system has to work for them. There is more than enough wealth for everyone, it’s only a distribution problem. For that, modern tech surely can help

Then finally the 99% screwed people realize that this is where (crony) capitalism is supposed to end up in the long run. Time for a forceful redistribution and system change. Can’t happen soon enough.

I think you will be surprised here. Its a huge value for many average people, highly accessible and basically free. This is not an adoption wave, but an unprecedent tsunami!

No, this is strictly a regression. A perversion even. Infrastructure is what you ultimately pay for. making that more complicated (contextual, my ass) so that people might give up faster and "just use vercel" is very clearly the d
