Yeah. But I think its a little more complicated than my quick dismissal. The headline would be true of any honest field. Both the question and the answer are biasing toward thoughts of controversial things. A better approach would be pre-c

I hate the state intervention here. But let's not pretend the track record of the status quo was great. This intervention is embarrassing and corrupt. Infrastructure in america is also embarrassing, which I'm guessing is also som

Are there downsides? I'm guessing it came from state initiative, does that mean more state control of the internet, including snooping and censorship? I don't know the best solution to fast and widely available internet, but I&#x

Trash. When you say "most", your sample should at least pretend to cover the range of "things".

Wait I'm I being accused of being an llm? Edit- it being weird and out of place is probably right because I probably used it wrong. I probably shouldve said this lands for me . That sounds more normal Edit2 I am not a bot trying to im

Ooh pick me I know! It's basically that meme of shooting the guy in the chair. Their predecessors did everything in their power, in collusion with oil companies, to ban nuclear by all channels available - regulation, lying, fear-monge

I'm trying to make sure I'm not misreading. Your intent was slander by affiliation, yes?

Don't you think the forensics is fun?! This is exactly the sort of thing i would've expected hn to be broadly interesting to hn. It's a complicated technology and people are poking it and learning things

I think there was some loud speculation is was Google. It's cool people can pretty definitively show it's not. But also maybe Google is being crazy sneaky and faking it! (Joking)

How long has the tech existed to do this?

by chermi 1mo ago
Lol. This is so incredibly backwards and stupid. Have you ran through any part of how this would work in your head? Not to mention how insane it is to ban people based on a test that is not scientific to begin with, not to mention gameable

It was a literal cartel. It could not more clearly be a cartel.

My actual conversations have revealed otherwise. Were they false flaggers?

1) they don't know what the past was like 2) they don't actually think humans deserve what we have 3) technology isn't natural, somehow

Because labelling all policies as negative by association isn't an actual evaluation of the merit of the policy. If you mark all policies as bad because they must all be bad, you're almost certainly excluding good policies fro

1) not true 2) guilt by association? A lot of non-physicists talk about Einstein. I still take his work very seriously.

I'm not sure I understand your point? Are you trying to equate the two without saying it directly?

I just remembered this essay that kind of explains some of my thoughts on how to judge economic policy http://bastiat.org/en/twisatwins.html . Not super relevant but kind of just in case you hadn't read it. Not jus

Oh I'm certain I'm not doing it optimally or close to best practices. It's just an example I had in my head related to my comment. Although, given opus 4.8->5.0 experience within claude code, I don't know if I'd

This lands. Llms are bad precisely at following what not to do. They work best off of positive constraints. I have a design principles + tech preferences doc I force llms "lint" their approach against. It's not perfect but

Your example of adoption is interesting. I think California has actually influenced other states on efficiency. I wanted to say disproportionately, but perhaps in exact accordance with their economic and political power. I don't know

I don't see how any of this works unless the rest of the world agrees to be less productive in the meantime. Apply what you want for the US to every country in the world. If your policy is the solution, then I'd assume all countr

As we've clearly seen, technology is static and the price to performance will never go down. And never be infiltrated by open source.

Based on the comments its even shallower than ad-hominem. It's loose association to the "bad" they learned from the "good". Therefore everything from bad is bad. It's team sports thinking. If I had to guess the

I think this is a big factor. While I would prefer a more federated US, the US as is is a great market to start in. It's 350M fairly wealthy people under mostly the same tech restrictions. That's a great place to grow. It'
