Sound like it's very realistic that Israel will target the regime itself soon. I don't think the US will actively support it, though.

Iranian people won't suddenly start to like the regime just because certain sites were destroyed.

I believe no US administration ever acknowledged the ICC. By the way, the German chancellor just said he wouldn't arrest Netanyahu if he came to Germany. It's not just a Trump thing.

Care to elaborate? A random person doubting things doesn't help other people or bringing a discussion forward.

There is another easy fix: Allow banks to educate customers, to maybe delay a transaction a bit, but don't allow them to halt or deny a transaction.

That's not at all what parent comment said or implied. When A is only used for X and B is needed for A, then it does not follow that B is only used for X.

Which is fine in general. It has been a selling point for SQL or C, for example. What I wanted to say is that for AI output becoming a replacement for code, a necessary requirement is that the output becomes deterministic. While LLMs provid

Having full ownership over your money in digital form has quite a lot of disadvantages, so many disadvantages that it makes it a bad idea to do it in general. However, there are a few advantages under certain circumstances. You can easily w

Because any precise description of what the computer is supposed to do is already code as we know it. AI can fill in the gaps between natural language and programming by guessing and because you don't always care about the "how&qu

The same argument still applies.

All of the mentioned bullet points could be applied to other countries. While I think there's quite a lot of antisemitism out there, I find it questionable trying to deduce antisemitism. Explicitly expressed antisemitism itself is some

That would have the consequence that naturalized citizen would be second class. Because they have to watch out for what to say, otherwise somebody might denounce them and they have to fight against their live being destroyed.

They even let people fly with their Laptops. From what I know batteries with stiff casing that can't be easily penetrated are quite safe. I only buy from big brands though. Works never buy no name stuff.

One problem is that for some people, the daily calories used by the body lowers when you reduce the calories intake (mostly by adjusting NEAT). So for some people it's harder to lose weight than for others.

Sweeteners have been researched quite extensively. If there are problems with regular typical consumption, the effect size is very small. Small as in "the alternatives are most likely worse" or as in "you are consuming alread

Fun fact: last part of his name "Räder" is a German word that translate to "wheels" which I find weirdly fitting.

Something that you can sensibly express as a fraction of the revenue of Meta is significant though. It must be low enough that Meta never seriously considers to pull out of Europe.

The process is far from perfect, but it works well enough mid-term and works pretty well long-term. It's also better than any alternatives, as far as I know. Haven't heard people pushing the idea of restructuring the process, the

One assumption for such theories that is very important and very wrong is that the elite would cooperate with each other long enough and work on the same goals long term. Newest very public instance is Elon breaking with Trump. Of course su

Ethical bottom for industry as a whole (there will always be niche exceptions) is typically the law. And sometimes not even that when law can't be enforced effectively or the incentives are in favor of breaking the law.

My guess is that in 10 years, it will still be 3-5 years away. Wouldn't be surprised if in 20 years, people come to the conclusion that AGI needs quantum computing and come fusion to be feasible.

I have the impression, when women have systemic struggles people tend to believe it's the society's fault and when men have systemic struggles people tend to believe it's the individual's fault.

Will we be able mid-term to rely on LLMs not hallucinating and causing crashes? Even if the probability is low, the thought that the AI might do something crazy because it's hallucinating is terrifying, so that might be a barrier for a

As long as professional scammers (Fin and crypto FinTech) believe they can extract more money, Bitcoin will grow. As crypto currency is still an underregulated asset there will always be more ways to extract money in a shady way. Basically

If using the work as training data was lawful (which hasn't been always the case as we know today) I tend to agree with you, but it might depend: creating an alteration of the work might be prohibited altogether or you might need to gi

Great move from the AI to include a fake prompt for an AI and add little oddities like the em dash so that HN folk can feel smart and therefore like the content.

AI uses lossy compression of data to generate output that is potentially a copyright violation. Photoshop doesn't recommend a (mostly) straight reproduction of existing work, but an AI potentially does.

AIs are not creative, that's anthropomorphism. They use lossy compression to save training data. Later on, the compressed data is used to generate things that are potentially copyright violations (because they are very close to the ori

Sounds to me like parent used a proper tool. It just happens to be very flexible. In general, the best tool is the one that you use and makes sense to you.
