Thanks, I'll look them up. I have read Jack Kerouac, On the Road , great book. [Flashback 20:57 Sep 25, Jack Kerouac, (this means I just remembered the memory for the first time since the lobotomy 13 years ago, specific distinct sen

Shuffle is the SIMD's killer app. It's apparently an interesting but expensive circuit, but it's smart to prioritize it. Absolute best instruction, hands down. So double-pumping yes isn't full speed meaning single cyc

Borges is perfect at format. And should have gotten a Nobel prize, but didn't get it strictly because he stood by the military dictatorship in Argentina. Not the only Latin American writer who likes the military, Diego Maquieira, my g

OK I'm open to that side of things. If Adobe pulls all the stops and produces value corresponding to what it charges, which is crazy--then, I might reconsider my views, maybe their business incentives have aligned very well now and the

Nah you know what, all these claims we have hard AI? You don't see people claim it explicitly but you see incredible artifacts. What is the deal? They are incredible! They cannot be believed! So just today I was reading an article

Right so a few years's previous it was more about expanding market-share with lower prices. Then they saw employee's not getting their lives ruined when they got fired, like not getting the phone calls from that employee begging

Demand can't exceed supply, they're both functions of price and quantity. They always meet, but nobody ever says "demand meets supply." They meet through black markets if need be, with prison labor if need be, with cri

Yeah there are airplanes, and maybe the adversary makes better airplanes sometimes. So supposedly that never happens, but with rockets it totally did, Soviets had way better rockets for decades. Until like 2010 or something, Spacex, apart

Yeah it's political. Greens have to get their money from somewhere, plus...plus sometimes people fuck up 200%. Not only not be in favor of something, and be neutral, that would be 100%. 200%, being doggedly against the only solution

Yeah I don't actually value happiness but insofar as I do it simply means headphones. Good headphones. Audio quality yeah, but also unique way it plays songs, listen to everything all over again. And convenience, so for instance Air

There's stupid shit and it involves scams, like going to a record store and they say "hey maybe you're the chosen one" play a track then switch gear and say "listen to it again" and play a different track prete

I want them to get good wages to the point I paid additional taxes, half to the Federal Government and half to the State of California. 45% of income, while in the lowest tax bracket, blowing literally every billionaire out of the water.

Haha, you know I know a lawyer tell me the monthly payments to victims of torture was 10x what another human rights lawyer said, $2000 / mo vs $200 / mo. Yeah play the system. You know who else plays the system? Bosses insistin

Those calls were theft. That drain was because you were being robbed. Or it would be like other industries, say like a Laundromat, where a call from them could just as well be because of you leaving something behind or a $10 issue, which

Yeah they can tap every axon in your brain all the time. Really, it's not about capability. It's about cost. 1984 was a huge win for the tortured on the balance sheet. They didn't produce anything and they cost millions!

That can't be right. I mean maybe, if they are going to shit, like didn't they leak all their Iranian and Chinese sources meaning they disappeared? The old-time folks using One-Time-Pads, I only remember that but come on it&#x27

Yeah and that's why people are losing their shit, just can't can't CAN'T dude super small country. In any case blonde girl Sweden and human rights Sweden are not the same place.

It's generally still not buttoned up. Looks buttoned up. Doesn't make one fuck of sense. What is going on? IRS has limited staff for those cases, can only really nail 200 a year.

Yeah myself as well, I want number 3. And it won't always be tracked...or will it? Cat and mouse. Honor system, a little bit.

Not really. There's a lot up there, the demand is just now scraping the top of the barrel, in Chile for one, there's many many salt flats and huge lithium deposits. Lithium deposits, despite intense interest in exploitation over

I like this. This is competition. Apple is drawing Facebook out. I like both companies but the incentives of any trillion-dollar company are very fucked and it helps Facebook internally when they get sued for breaking the rules. Let he

There's some stuff with merit. Generally headlines on this forum are way off the money generally, in psychology sociology psychiatry. Like there's that one finding that came up while researching how scientists in the hard science

Yeah I would say so. South Asian immigrants are very welcome, huge respect (fear even) for IIT graduates. Like yes the H1B visa system sucks, but it's indentured servitude essentially (not slavery, I ate at a restaurant with literal

You know what I got the education I got, I memorized that, there was little new information making it a non-planet. You know those same guys call carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen metals? It's a description. In astronomy, metal means any

This is why I suggested I think on this forum for Jessica Livingston to make a follow-up to Founders at Work called Fuckups at Fail . Well not that because you can't stock it. But basically. A catalog of failures. Give me an intim

Like the whole privacy ship has sailed. The mark of the beast has been deeply imprinted. Tattooed on the forehead, like slaves in Ancient Rome. It doesn't mean we're all fucked. On the contrary. Game has changed. Poker into

Yeah that was Microsoft. Also Edison, General Electric early on (like lightbulb era), had (according to one source, but it makes sense) like a prototype of an IQ test, tested memory and general knowledge. Basically how much you had read.
