But without regulation they clearly devolve into scam and fraud vehicles. Crypto just isn't worth the time or effort for regular folks. I'm not sure what's going to happen first -- abandonment or bank run, but crypto like all

They were saying that whoever was running things at Roomba must have been duped by the 4 hour work week bs because nothing was getting done. Specifically whoever took over operations, planning, and product improvements from Brooks.

Just say "Hey, I gotta run. It was nice talking to you." Or something to that effect. Most people aren't going to get upset if you need to wrap up a conversation. And if they do get upset (assuming they aren't having an

So you're saying even dumber wordsacks, completely untrained in mental health, and biased are somehow better?

Yup. Credit. Or Debit. They can play with crypto behind the scenes all they want. That doesn't make it worth anyone's time.

Yeah... Still gonna use my credit card or debit card.

> About 70% of hospital deaths are due to preventable mistakes in the hospital. Sure sounds like an asspull stat. Extraordinary claims, extraordinary evidence. Do you have a reference for that? Care to share?

Which essentially means ignore both the LLM and your rando friend saying "don't worry about it". You shouldn't try to substitute licensed medical evaluation with either.

Any know if there are plans to make a new pebble watch that includes both Barometer/Compass plus Heart Rate Monitor in one device? This looks like a useful UI mode, but I'm holding out for a Pebble that doesn't require choosi

This is a good point. I completely relate to the statement that "social media is a plague on society." But you have a good point -- it's not so much the digitization of a social network as the algorithms that are hyper-optimi

Hey, original a-hole here. Just wanted to chime in (even though you probably don't want advice from me after that a-holery). I don't think LLMs are good for editing at all. They make things more wordy and obtuse. But editing is su

tomhow wasn't talking to you. He was talking to me. My comment was unnecessary, harsh, and unfair. It is not a bad article. I was getting a strong llm impression from the introduction and meme-image and didn't give it enough of a

The "cross-linked internals" only go one direction and only one token at a time, slide window and repeat. The RL layer then picks which few sequences of words are best based on human feedback in a single step. Even "thinking&

Messing with crypto is in no way easier than traditional banking. And traditional banking has guarantees that crypto does not.

Yeah, some individual states do have not for profit, and it does help. These are the vast minority of states. That's why it should be available nationwide as a public option.

This is correct. BCBS is for profit and most others are. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan is one of the few not for profit insurances and only available in 8 states.

It's because health insurance companies need to pad their profits. Because we have a backward system in the US where profits are extracted by everyone without any competition from a not-for-profit. That's why the idea of a public

Given the amount of evidence that Russia and the Trump campaign were working together, it's devoid of reality to claim it's a hoax. I hadn't heard the Bernie angle, but it's not unreasonable to expect they were aiding Be

This is why I don't bother with AGPL released by a company (use or contribute). Choosing AGPL with contributors giving up rights is a huge red flag for "hey, we are going to rug pull". Just AGPL by companies without even allo

Influence and social engineering are two completely different things. I don't know of an example of a person being compelled to do a very specific task or divulge secrets based on reading a poem. Do you?

I expect GP mistook metformin-associated lactic acidosis in a patient with kidney disease as something metformin-caused. A separate but coincident IV misadministration could be an exacerbating factor. It would have been a rare case, but a

The election systems are managed at the state level exactly as they should be. Corruption has a much lower chance when there are barriers. That said, there should be national minimum standards for the elections. Chain of custody is somethi

Stable coins fail when there's a run on the bank. Crypto is a wild west of unregulated banking. They have essentially become tools for money laundering and scam enablers, so it might take a while. But eventually the general public will
