I felt a bit sad that the owner has to ask for donations to maintain it :( It's a great site, but if it was meant as an archive, with today's resources, I reckon it could be hosted for free even. Idk, just feel a bit sad that the

India doesn't have as much of a flying culture as USA or Europe. Same for China. I think a big reason for that was WW2, at least in Europe's case. In the US, well, so much goddamn land just lying out there.

It doesn't matter if they can or cannot. Every marketing copy in Anthropic is about replacing workers. Even their job listings state "This position may be replaced by AI within a year.".

Tough luck. Kaja Kallas is deep in Peter Thiel's gang, so it's no wonder why most European countries are bending the knee to Palantir, especially the ones that have a very weak cyber/tech foundation.

Under the UAE's Golden Visa scheme, it's parents, children and any dependent siblings, which I think is an optimal balance. The person who sponsors the rest is/are the primary visa holder(s) and the authorities only take the

I think I'd place less emphasis on the "creating" part and more emphasis on the "marketing" part. If Dario could shut up about how jobs are outdated, that would be nice. His quotes simply give more ammunition to inc

Point is, Sam the hobo could be a fairly cheap scapegoat. No premium either.

At what point do people stop paying expensive consulting firms for the privilege to receive AI-generated advice? At this point, might as well call Sam the homeless hobo living beside the dump behind the Wendy's and invite him to advice

Modern biochemistry (so far) IS vibe coding lol. You mostly have vibes on how the chemistry should work, based on (very strong) natural evidence coupled with theoretical development and lab studies. Then you mix and match, goading bacteria

That's precisely my point. I didn't mean those dishes were Arabic by origin, but by prevalence. In fact, evidence points out to shawarma being an adaptation of the Turkish doner that was developed variously across the different pr

I wonder what makes Europeans think Israel is an outpost of European civilization - just the skin tone? Lol. Israel has always been a country trying to coopt the culture of its Arab neighbors. They've tried to claim shawarmas, falafel

Exactly. Post that pressure, the US, specifically Wyoming, is a much better tax haven than any Swiss canton.

Not really. It is to be noted that Shiism for the most part was a very fringe sect for most of history. Even in Iran and Iraq, their traditional strongholds today, Shiism didn't have a strong enough presence until the reign of Shah Ism

That's precisely what I meant. Hamas always had these plans on how to launch an attack. Israel gave them the opening. And why is everyone forgetting the fact that Yahya Shinwar was basically a Mossad puppet by the time he was released?
