I'm fairly ignorant on this but robots that are teleoperated seem completely capable of doing basically any household task and using tools like screw drivers. It may be slow, sure, but autonomy and speed seems like a solvable software

My biggest issue with "the" unemployment rate is that the one everyone hears all the time is around 4-5%. I think this is massively misleading because it lends itself to people thinking if you picked 100 random men from ages 25 to

Have a bad first date? Higher RAM prices. Your dog ran away? Higher RAM prices. Lower RAM prices? Believe it or not, higher RAM prices.

A lot don't care if it is. I've had friends share things and I stopped replying with "you know this isn't a true story/fact/real image, right?". Their response is always "idk i thought it was funny&#x

It's worse than that, it's every 3 to 7 hours of fossil fuel pollution roughly equaling the total death toll of all nuclear power accidents in history (around 4000 indirectly, most from cancer resulting from Chernobyl - but there&

If you look at net damage to the planet, fossil fuel burning energy sources kill literally 8 million+ people a year. Coal plants are vastly more radioactive than nuclear plants, and the effects of burning coal will have a vastly outsized sh

I made an idle version of the 1999 MMORPG "EverQuest". There's maybe around 50 people playing at any given time and has a enthusiastic discord group for it. It's relatively fully-featured to the original game, and has a

You can also look at the prime-age employment-population numbers, which show ages 25 to 54. It shows nearly 20% unemployment rates. I think this is a better number, personally, than the 4.4% one that conveniently skips out on so many. It&#x

I think "link" here is serving the same function as telling your GPS to navigate to an address. It's obviously not navigating to a string of letters and numbers, it's navigating to what it represents (the physical matter

He was asking about the trend of him commenting with "Source?" leading to downvotes on other posts. I was giving an extreme example to represent why that may be happening elsewhere. I agree that in this case with the 3% rate it&#x

I would imagine it's more you're being skeptical of something that is unpopular to be skeptical about. It's like someone saying climate change is impacting our planet, and then asking "source?" in response.

I mean 2025 had the weakest job creation growth numbers outside of recession periods since at least 2003. The world seems to care in a pretty tangible way. There are other big influencing factors for that, too, of course.

I personally learn best by doing which is why I love learning with LLMs. They're going to be wrong a lot, and give bad advice, and do things in silly ways. I learn well from the process of working with them, seeing them fail constantly

I'm sensitive to detecting LLM writing and it wasn't distracting at all reading this. It read well! Awesome work.
