As soon as I saw the images, I was reminded of these, in Denmark we called them "skrammel-legeplads" lit. "junk-playground", they were still fairly popular when I was a kid.. I remember the one I visited most often had a

I don't believe in harming anyone who exists. I do think that it is in principle, less wrong to harm someone by denying them the right to violate another. It has been shown elsewhere that it is a fundamental violation of the created, t

What I'm trying to say is, that, if a person is not born, they don't exist.. they're not waiting eagerly in the "before life" to be born, therefore, there can be no duty towards them, because there's nothing th

The argument is specifically treating the duty to create new people, not any other duties. A common argument against antinatalism, is that we have a duty to create new people, because if we don't create them, they can't have good

Nope, I'm saying that that which is not born, is owed nothing. There's no "future person" that you owe it to, to create.. There will be persons in the future, and those persons, you do have an obligation toward. But the

I am a parent. The amount of responsibility I feel towards my child is all encompassing and absolute. The love I feel for them is immeasurable, as is the joy they bring me. The guilt of this selfishness, however, is not entirely weightless

I'm not arguing against the moral duty of making the future better for those that are created in the future, I agree with that perspective. I only try to enhance the argument that there is no moral duty to create them. Moral value is f

Granted. I didn't mean this as a complete framework, only as an additional perspective or "mod" to amend the weakest part of Benetar's asymmetry. Also, I'm not personally interested in changing peoples views, only t

they must have missed one, I'm sure they can index 64 domains.. unless 0 means "don't do anything". Just be glad they didn't opt for a 16 bit register for the call home functionality :D

I'm trying really hard not to want to turn this into a dac for my stereo system. They build really nice boxes.. I have a PSL-3 industrial controller (well, two, but one is broken) on the shelf behind me that I'm using for the nobl

Lovely article, when discussing streaming and downloading, we should ignore the transport, it's not relevant to the definition. Downloading is a superset of streaming. Low-level streaming is the process of transferring data, between CP

I want to be excited about this, I _HATE_ the flatness of android, windows 10/11, even macos.. but I'm afraid they'll fuck it up.. the 3D objects will be actual objects, everything will be crufted on top of the bloated dumpst

"in the terms of bros" what does that even mean? I think bro is a term that's used pretty widely, for different things, in different cultures and contexts, I call my brother bro.. I've heard people call their friends bro

I've never actually seen a brogrammer though, I've seen people who program only because they get money for it, I thought for a while those where it, but I'm not sure if I think they qualify either.

This is not the first time that this is posted, but it's a great story, and I'll read it again. This made me think, ycombinators hive-memory, it'd be interesting to have this a community-curated collection of links to evergre

Funny, because, sometimes it's not the patience of the other side that's the problem, but on my own side.. and with LLMs, I find in particular my patience challenged.. Whereas with humans, it's often somewhat possible to gaug

I don't delete files. They are put in directories, and at some interval, the directories are put in other directories. I've kept everything that didn't die in sudden catastrophic failures. I can access files that I got before

I'm also liking obsidian a lot, especially that the data lives on the filesystem and in markdown so it's not walled in by obsidian. I made my obsidian project folder a git repository and have a script that runs a few times a day t

This resonates a lot with a thought that I've had for a long time.. A computer is not a tool, it never was, it never will be.. It's a workshop.

maybe, or google.. I didn't want to make it into a political thing, EU has done a lot of silly stuff, part due to malice, part to incompetence, but I'd take that any day over the "usa model" of "freedom" :)
