You seem to be missing that arbitrators have a financial incentive to side with the company, which pays them? Explained in this video: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49787720

The free software philosophy aside, I feel like another problem is that once you start accepting payments then you start accepting various forms of responsibility/liability/accountability/etc. along with it. At a high enough

Could you maybe be a little bit more charitable than snarky? "Just read the paper" is not helpful when the paper is like 50 pages. It's not like I know what makes the other cats different species either. Nobody is trying to &

That doesn't answer my question. What definition of species is that using?

by dataflow 7d ago
I don't understand how they're different species from others. By what definition of species are they different species, as opposed to (say) subspecies?

I'd heard that hypothesis, but not that we seem to have evidence for it too. Absolutely wild, thanks for sharing. > Any model of the observable universe being the interior of a black hole requires that the Hubble radius of the unive

I don't quite get the point of slowing down your drive toward a cliff... what's the strategy here? Is the goal to wait until another Congress comes along? Or are they planning to actually invest more in AI safety at the same time?

What I'm curious about is how far they would've gotten without the postdoc.

Two questions: 1. How does the kernel detect the conflict? > you can certainly boot with acpi=off if you want to and no ACPI code will be executed at runtime 2. How does the kernel prevent the firmware from running anything?

Given the replacement author and email seem like a random person rather than an employee, I wonder if whomever did this thought they had found the "real" author and that somehow the others were incorrect? It's confusing, I do

I'm not sure winning in the midterms will be a net positive for Democrats (barring an infeasible supermajority). Even if they stop everything Republicans want to do (which they won't even get close to), that's just going to b

I think I disagree. I just (re-)discovered a couple of my cables don't have data lines a few hours ago, prompted by the earlier discussion. My initial instinct was also to throw them away like you said. But then I realized they're

Whoops, thank, I can't read - I misread label maker as label marker!

Definitely not winning at life with this lol, it's actually frustrating because the cables are so similar. One has a higher speed, one has a higher power, one is shorter, one is longer, one is more flexible, one has a display showing

What marker do you use to mark them? Is the ink durable and easy to read?
