Listening to his podcast on the topic was so disappointing. I think Ezra is a smart guy, but he doesn’t understand the field and the entire premise of the long discussion was that LLMs are going to get us to AGI.

That’s all true, but there was high inflation and temporarily high gas prices caused in part by the War in Ukraine and OPEC cutting production. The difference is obviously these were not self inflicted like whatever the Trump administration

It sounds like the person you’re replying to thinks Carney's Liberal Party is set to lose the upcoming election. Before Trump started going after Canada, the Conservatives seemed like a sure bet to take over Parliament. But since the t

Over what timeline will industry come back? And are $5,000 or $10,000 in 2025 dollars washer and dryers acceptable to Americans? It’s possible all economists are wrong. It is more likely they aren’t. Tariffs are going to hurt middle and low

Correction, ignorant and misinformed Americans don’t want these things and do not care. Let’s stop pretending that the individuals who voted for this administration actually wanted most of what it is doing. The majority voted off of feeling

If the live audience was outraged by his Nazi salutes, I wouldn’t care so much. The fact he did two Nazi salutes to an applauding audience with smiles is deeply concerning.

But was the complete annihilation of all safety measures on twitter and chasing away most advertisers necessary to accomplish that? Couldn’t he have bought twitter, truly kept it an open place to discuss topics with less misinformation, kep

Move fast and break things mentality over the boring strategy of letting a hiring freeze slowly work. It’s also psychologically challenging the people that stay to “admit” they can’t get a job in the private sector, which helps the Elon nar

I don’t see the call to action. It describes perfectly the feeling of hopelessness I’ve had for years now. The election was the last chance and everyone blew it.

Remember when they said they’d get to the bottom of the “drones”? Don’t be so easily distracted from what they are doing to the country.

I think it needs to be stated as a matter of fact that Vance has demonstrated he doesn’t hold a position if it isn’t advantageous to him. Which is normal for politicians, but in his case very extreme. So not to take anything away from the r

This is a good point I had not considered. I suppose these ratings are hidden from us, besides being folded into the overall rating?

Why? I don’t understand what working at Microsoft has anything to do with this. And I found the entire article very informative with little room for bias.

I like the design. I do not understand the $700 price beyond coffee nerds are used to paying that much for equipment. I’ll wait.

Isn’t that the starting price? Insurance and countries can buy in bulk and bring it down. Then overtime doesn’t the price come down due to competition from generics?

I mean this seriously. Why not both? I don’t see the problem with having multiple types of relationships with people, including sex. As long as everyone is on the same page (consensual, they know it’s casual, etc.) Sorry for your loss and g

Senior living centers are often atrocious and still can set people back over $10,000 a month. I think a program could be designed without being a handout. One option could be if you’re going into a government run senior living center you ne
