I thought this would be about the non-fungibility of money and was greatly disappointed. Some (many? most?) people are not aware that a dollar here is not equal to a dollar there and this got way worse in the last few years. It has become e

The last guy (kimdotcom) who was working on this (incentive for seeding) seems to be heading to the US: https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/science-and-technology/651123/cou... It’s interesting he’s no longer getting

How does this address the previous point? If they are not providing storage, then centralized or decentralized doesn’t make a difference. Torrent/P2P can only add redundancy, so it’s impossible to have worse availability than a downloa

Before anyone even contemplates if Anthropic has any good intentions, remember, this is how petty and small minded they are. Truly the last people you want with this kind of power.

The issue (real issue?) is that it’s unclear whether these governments reduced their holdings or switched them to these opaque structures (tether can be considered one). The idea is, it would be hard for the US to untangle true ownership. I

If you allow the law to stop you from doing something because of a hypothetical danger, it’ll get severely abused. I come from a country that does and still does this and it’s very ugly.

I am surprised how no one is mentioning how their sneakers dissolves in a couple months? Last store Nike sneaker I bought was 4 years ago. $120 or something and within 2 months it has become unwearable. Since then I only buy new balance fr

How are they going to generate revenue if their old model is Ads on search and the new model is yet to show how revenue can be generated. ChatGPT (on free) is showing ads now but they are not targeted and I highly doubt they are worth anyth

The security implications of this are very severe when you consider the amount of people who google government websites, banking, crypto and others. And google will happily serve you a phishing website either in ads or results.

I've got downvoted and flagged for saying similar. It's actually positive you are the top comment. There has been aggressive brigading around reddit/hackernews and also traditional media. These are malicious companies, so not

Shopify supports multiple countries both as a buyer/seller. I assume there is all kind of customizations needed to comply with each country weird rules. Are all of these software engineers doing core engineering? Probably not. But they

No, it's not. And it's the kind of evidence that doesn't help and rather confuse. It's not even clear from the article whether an LLM or a dedicated model were used for this purpose. Also > That is, I'm not sure

Are the models improving? Because I am not seeing it. I have been trying Astra for a few quantifiable tasks in my codebase and performance wise, it's pretty similar to sol 5.6. Now when it comes to expressing the problem/solution,

A lot of people don't realize that when a leveraged position goes against you (especially with a regulated broker), you get liquidated once your equity runs out, but you can still owe the shortfall on top of that. And the broker can co

The US singlehandedly dismantled the swiss offshore banking industry. You can’t say they were doing it for moral or legal purposes since they have now moved the activities to the US. So, yeah, they were never their friends but they were kin

It's either a bot or a meat proxy. I have answered another one to see if they are pro-active. I'd have expected that at least they should process the article but apparently tokens are so expensive in this economy.
