I propose a radical solution where the US government pays people by buying back their big trucks, after which they are scrapped for raw materials.

Which is a bad pattern. Around here, you can be granted access to most channels just with vague reasons for why you need to be in there. This is a disaster. Culture will degrade. Suspicions will grow. Security theater.

In high school I remember entertaining myself in class by using grid paper to draw little tile based maps. It’s like playing Minecraft by hand. I imagine the concept is lost to a lot of Gen Z or Gen Alpha by now. Too much imagination requir

No, but I have purchased from many small businesses who are all raising prices and I basically have no choice but to buy from them anyway.

Horizontal phones haven’t been practical for a while. The weight balance is off and you are forced to use it two handed. You’ll look like a toddler.

Just raise the prices, it works sooner or later. We are not getting the old prices back.

That’s a feature. It lets your thumb scroll comfortably in a larger blank area so the content is always in view for you. There is no reason for things to be centered, it does not aid readability.

For me, the price of bitcoin represents some kind of index for how gullible retail investors currently are.

People act like RAM is thousands of dollars now. I checked prices recently and while it’s pretty high, it’s not that bad for a component you just buy once and use for a long time. I’m still more concerned about the prices and availability o

The stakes get even higher if you fly a plane with your entire family in it. One bad error and you will almost certainly have killed them all.

I think this is more of a “keep friends close but enemies closer” type thing.

Cloudflare is in the S&P500. If you have a 401k diversified in broad market indexes then most likely… you are a shareholder.

US Government won’t fail. They can certainly just default on all debt and keep on going like many other countries. It will be a shitty country going forward, but not a failed one. The best thing you can do is diversify assets to be prepared

If your choices are “reduce productivity, make money” or “increase productivity, but still make the same money”, why would you ever choose the latter? The thing about option 1 is that you still have “potential productivity” that you can tap

In real business, all important software is capable of killing someone or cause monetary loss through incorrectness or loss of functionality due to performance failures. If that doesn’t apply, you are just writing toy apps or front ends tha

There are machines that already do those things. And if you’re rich enough to afford and maintain these humanoid robots, you would probably just hire staff already. The only way I could see these AI robots take off is if on top of all those

You’re fucked once you have to start getting AI to produce code for languages you’ve never actually worked in. You will have to write code to understand deeply what goes on at the low level. Without a solid understanding of the low level, y

Noam Shazeer is not some super brain anymore. His raw skills are likely atrophied by now from delegating and operating at higher levels. His entire value is mostly political now. If he can’t play the political game and win, he’s useless. He

If you live in the terminal and do everything via CLIs, it becomes even more obvious what steps you need to automate this stuff. Unfortunately, a lot of developers are terrified of the CLI for some reason and cling to GUIs and TUIs.

Yes, but what about the audacity of it? Get paid a lot to join a company but then decide to get up and leave again 2 years later? He just wants to be passed around?

You can build your own, but it won’t give you social currency the way it does when you just tell people “Yea I use OpenClaw”. They already know OpenClaw and what it’s about so you instantly gain rapport vs having to explain your custom agen

People want to think of their computers as a little dollhouse of AI running around doing stuff for them. OpenClaw is just a toy. There is no use case for it and I haven’t heard of anyone do anything remotely interesting with it. People like

Since search engines are going to be replaced by AI, is there now potential for old school hand curated web directories like we had in the late 1900s to surface again? Lists of websites hand curated by categories and topics, and even certif
